99.9 KISW. The shenanigans continue. This is the men's room with Miles and Thrill. What way are you like your parents, for better or for worse, and what will you never do because your parents did it? A couple of responses here. My dad is old school and doesn't get in his feelings. It's hard to read the man. I feel like he doesn't trust me, and I felt hurt because of it growing up. I come to flip around, I hear the same from others about me. I seem uptight. Don't seem to trust others because I don't open up to them. So I basically came full circle. Another, I'm like my mom and that when I get stressed out, I burst into tears. I really don't like that. And even with tremendous self-control. I managed to keep the tears from flying out of my eyes. My voice, I'll pitch real high and give it away. Our question, for better or worse, how are you like your parents? Or what will you never do because your parents did it? 206, 803 rock. Hello, Nick. Welcome to the men's room. Hey, what's up, fellas? Well, I've been listening since day one, and that's the first time I've called in, just like a bitch about my head. All right. Awesome. Glad we had something for you. It only took 20 years. So, this time, I promise I won't dump the golf card, but let's go hit the links. Well, it's cold outside, huh? All right.

1:33.7

see where it comes from from my father it's great now do you see anything good as well like

1:39.3

I can take credit for that oh uh that I can take credit for sure.

1:44.9

1:54.8

A good dude, like, he's a family man.

1:57.3

There's lots and lots of things about my dad.

1:59.1

I'm really stoked about, and I'm happy to emulate. But he, like, he doesn't understand the anger is a secondary emotion. To him, anger is how you do with stuff. And, like, that's what was spread on to me. And then my sons, and so now trying to get that to change and I mean trying to tell
