Summary

Soren Bowie debuts his brand new baby (a garage), while Daniel O'Brien shares what actually happens when you bring a real human baby home. From sleepless nights and mysterious crying to hospital chaos, labor stories, and the sudden realization that you’re responsible for another person forever, this episode is about the first week of parenthood. The guys reflect on the anxiety and joy of fatherhood, the exceptional talents of hospital staff, and the sheer awe inspired by watching your partner give birth.
