I like the idea of having enough kids

that they can raise each other.

Oh, wow. Wow.

I'm upstate at the moment.

And my grandmother's telling me stories,

and she is one of 13 children,

and she was telling me how the kids started naming the children.

After birth, it was like,

it's your problem now to the rest of the kids,

and it was like, name it, feed it, figure it all out.

I'm telling you, earlier generations, man, they were tough.

Yeah.

I don't know. I have one kid,

and I'm barely hanging on.

So, Galen's great grandma props to you.

Truly a saint.

It is officially election season.

Labor Day traditionally marks the time

when general election campaigning truly ramps up.

Summer vacation is over.
