We'll be sharing our own hilarious tales of fatherhood, from the diaper changing wars of old versus new methods to the perplexing world of breastfeeding versus formula. We'll also be pondering the potential of a betting app for baby showers and contemplating Kevin's upcoming role as a godparent in a baptism ceremony.
Who says you can't have your cake and eat it too, especially if it's Kevin's favorite warm chocolate cake?

Speaker 1:Long hiatus already know from our last episode, but thank you, Kevin, for getting back on track with us on this new episode especially. What a fitting episode. 69 is like your first episode back like noise.
Speaker 2:So when we both said 69 and then we both said nice, that was unscripted, very unscripted, that was just pure energy.
Speaker 1:We're just making eye contact and we're just like we knew. We knew what to say. How to say it, we're back, went to say it, but yeah, we're so golf Kevin.
Speaker 2:You know what? Yeah, yeah, in our hiatus here, austin, austin, I picked up golf slash. I returned to golf. You returned to golf because I played golf and low golf in high school with Giselle actually.
Speaker 1:Yes.
Speaker 2:Who was who played for the team at Berkeley?
Speaker 1:He played. She played for Berkeley. My wife Giselle played Berkeley golf. Berkeley golf, Easy. She played golf at Berkeley. That is a fact.
Speaker 2:Facts, the facts, um. But yeah, you know, man, we were going almost every Wednesday, I think, from February to March.
Speaker 1:There, was one time we played like 18 and 18 hole like three days straight. No.
Speaker 2:And we're so fucking tired, no what did, we, do we know, I think we on a Tuesday we played nine holes and then we went to San Jose country club the next day, yes, and then we played 18.
Speaker 1:Yes, that was my worst game ever.
Speaker 2:I think we played like nine the next day in the morning. So we played, we played, we played like 32 holes 32 holes of golf in like three days and we're like what are we on the? Tour. No, it was a six holes. It was a lot of walking.
Speaker 1:That was looking for the ball.
Speaker 2:I don't know what, what, what. What did you think about golf? What do you think about golf I?
Speaker 1:think the biggest perception I had a golf before going in is like this is a fucking hoity toy, toy sport hoity toy toy toy, toy, toy sport, Like what the fuck are we doing?
Speaker 1:Just hitting a stupid white ball, like, and then what with with an iron, and we're fucking dressed up, doing it, like I just thought it was stupid, like I really did Until I started. What was it? The way I got into it is that you know my dad and Micah, who was my dude. Micah is my sister-in-law's fiance, your brother-in-law, so I'm going to say my brother-in-law at this point His brother-in-law.
Speaker 1:Because I've known this guy since he was in high school. So so, um, surprisingly, me too, right? Yeah, I've known him a long time. I've known him pretty long actually, yeah.
Speaker 2:I think I was taking him to Cuyah in the program. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you were. I'm just a terrible Cuyah, I mean. I mean, it's not a real program. I was like who chose this?
Speaker 1:Um, but like Cuyah Ate Pro oh, you heard my Ate. Oh, it's like damn it, you're hot.
Speaker 2:I didn't want you to be my Ate Fuck.
Speaker 1:Um, for those of you don't know, If you know, you know if you know, you know, if you know, you know you don't understand that. It's a brother-sister program in high school to college and in the Filipino world you know, ate Cuyah is like uh, a brother-sister. A phrase you say to your elder brother yeah, I mean, koreans have that.
Speaker 2:They say something else, right, but I don't know, I'm not gonna try.
Speaker 1:We all run into that issue. Or you're like you're, you're designee because people like place you in this program and they get, they appoint you in Ate or Cuyah, you know, and sometimes you get that Ate who's like damn she.
Speaker 2:Before, before we mentioned anything. This is supposed to be like a mentorship program. It's supposed to be mentorship You're supposed to like.
Speaker 1:take these kids and help them go through college high school and they're like you're only like one year apart.
Speaker 2:Yeah, one or two years apart. You know what I mean, and it's like you're 18 and they're like 20. What's college going to be like?
Speaker 1:Oh my God, like can I party with you, girl Like yo? Whoa, what's up? Oh my God, You're my Atee and that's like the little brother little sister. Like oh, you're my Atee, I'll take you with me, oh yeah.
Speaker 2:Take me with you. Yeah, take me, show me the ways.
Speaker 1:I don't know anything.
Speaker 2:I mean that's tough, I'm not hey what were we talking about? We were talking about golf.
Speaker 1:So, anyways, yeah, so I'm golfing with Micah and my dad. It was for his birthday and they're like oh. Micah wants to golf for his birthday and you know my wife is like you should go out with him and I was like, fine, I'll go. And you know I was playing with him and I sucked because my dad bought. He bought this whole used club set he put together for me Like even oh, really yeah. He even had the glove.
Speaker 2:He had the golf balls. That's cool.
Speaker 1:The tees, yeah, and he was like I'm live. He actually set up something for me like wow, dad, yeah, that was great. Took only like almost 30, 35 years it was great, we got there.
Speaker 2:It was good and a new passion was created.
Speaker 1:I dressed up and you know I was, I was sucking a lot and then, but there was one hole, I used a. I think I used a seven iron and it was a. It was like a three par and they're like yeah. Or par three. See, I haven't played in a while.
Speaker 2:He's been a while.
Speaker 1:And then I forgot how many yards it was. What is it A hundred?
Speaker 2:Are you talking about a? Where are you playing?
Speaker 1:Whole number. It was like Sounds of the Muny. Oh yeah, it was like whole number it's like it's on the back half.
Speaker 2:Yeah, the back night, I think it's whole 10.
Speaker 1:Something like that. Yeah, yeah, and then I hit it, Like I hit it straight on and it went right on the green and I'm like, oh, cause it, like it went. Basically I was like playing like that Tiger Woods game.
Speaker 2:And it was like, oh, when she almost almost to the hole, oh, there was.
Speaker 1:There was. I was like oh, that feels, that feels good. Yeah, yeah, it feels good, right. And I'm like well, that feels real good. And then I, then I, I, I five putted that thing.
Speaker 2:Let's, let's, let's. I could have finished with a birdie, but he missed. But I five putted that bitch.
Speaker 2:But let's, let's, let's bring Austin down a notch with that, because he's saying it's a part three. He used a seven iron Most good golfers probably using a nine or a pitching wedge on this thing. So it's obviously cause he's a beginner you know what I mean and that's tough. I'm still probably pulling the seven iron out too, because I fucking suck too. What's wrong with pulling the seven iron? Dude, if you're hitting cause that part three, I'm sure it's like 150 or 140. Yeah, seven iron should be. You're like looking at 160, 170 for that thing? Oh yeah, no, you're just not hitting it square. I wasn't hitting it square, so I I hit it, but it worked.
Speaker 1:Hey, the last time we played I hit that pitching wedge how many yards Like cause.
Speaker 2:I remember we were like you were far and we're just like, was that a pitching wedge? Yeah, Like, would you pull up my pitchy wedge? I was like whoa, it was like a hundred plus yards. You know, okay, the? Uh, the best hole that Austin ever played was at prune Ridge, Number two, hole two.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I think I think it was a pitching wedge and this guy literally hits it like three feet from the hole, oh yeah. And then he, we walk up and he fucking buries it His first ever birdie. Dude, I was nervous as shit, and that ball is in the rafters in the apartment.
Speaker 1:now it's somewhere there.
Speaker 2:It's in the rafters, it's like forever. Like it like my first birdie.
Speaker 1:That was my first birdie.
Speaker 2:I was sick. That was a crazy shot.
Speaker 1:That was great, but that's how I got into. I got addicted to it, and then that's when I started hitting up Kevin.
Speaker 2:I was like yeah, we're like, are we golfing? Well, what happened with me was Romeo and the boys. Uh, right before New Year's they're like oh, we're going golfing. You want to come Like you guys golf? Yeah, I'm like all right. Well, I pulled out all my shitty like clubs that I've had. Like I bought a big five like 15, 16 years ago uh, probably 20 years ago now but and we played. I was like man, I forgot how good, how much fun this was, you know. And then I saw you playing. I'm like oh, let's play. Then we started playing almost every Wednesday for like three to four months straight.
Speaker 2:It wasn't saying we were going. We're staying in San Jose. We're going to prune Ridge. We were going to uh um the one in uh.
Speaker 1:Pitas.
Speaker 2:Oh, we went to Mel Pitas. Yes, that's right, spring Valley. We went to spring valley. Then we also went to a Romeo's uh, spot out there. Pleasanton out in the uh, freakian uh was he called the race track, the race track out there. That's a fun course. I think that's the one we've done the most. That one and um, uh, san Pablo, san Pueblo, the one in Tennessee.
Speaker 1:Rancho. Rancho de Pablo.
Speaker 2:Yeah, those two are the ones we went to the most, and uh.
Speaker 1:I miss it.
Speaker 2:You know what I haven't played in a while. I'm like, yeah, I do miss it. We got to do it again. We got to go. Well, yeah, we got to do it. Well, it's funny too, cause I bet on golf. You bet on golf, it's so much fun. How do you win? So you bet on who's going to win the tournament. Holy fuck dude, and I just found out from my guy Can you do a parlay on golf.
Speaker 1:No, you can't parlay.
Speaker 2:There's only one winner, I know, but several days. Well, I mean you could also do like a top 10 winner, top five, top 20, all that stuff, right. But it's fun because you pick one to win and then after the first round, the odds change, right.
Speaker 1:Because, based on the, scoring.
Speaker 2:You know, like if you're at top, obviously you have less. You have, uh, you have the. You don't have the best odds, right? Because or you have the closest to even money, right so you could bet each person each round, stuff like that. And so when you're watching the game, you're just like how do you miss that? Put you fucking idiot or like how are you shanking that to the right?
Speaker 1:You've been, you've been perfect this whole time, and how you shake that shit.
Speaker 2:So it's like. It's like I'm sitting on the couch watching this professional athlete that's supposed to hit these golf balls and I'm like I could have made that. And I'm like hmm, and then you think about it like no, I could not have made that, but it's just funny. You know it's. You know, but golf isn't is a fun game. You know, it just sucks when you have people behind you that are hella good and they just like catch up to you.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah.
Speaker 2:It's so tough.
Speaker 1:It's. There's like a certain pace of play, Michael always talks about it like there's a piece of play. We got to keep going, guys, and I'm like I know, but it's like.
Speaker 2:It's like I love you man, remember I love you man, but they went golfing with the girlfriends and stuff. There's a scene where there's like guys, we should really get going because the girl's a beginner. I remember this and they know she won't. Those guys are just jerks. How is she going to practice, how is she going to learn if she doesn't hit the ball? And then she hits the ball, and then she hits the guy in the shin?
Speaker 1:with the ball and he's like.
Speaker 2:Oh God, this is my nightmare. And then and then the girl gets frustrated, she leaves and the guys is like, oh, no, don't leave, no, don't leave. And you know that's the real thing on the golf course is like a pace of play, stuff like that.
Speaker 1:Pace of play. Um, there's definitely etiquette, huge etiquette, like I always thought that was a stupid thing, and so we're now playing the sport. I get it now.
Speaker 2:And it's funny because Austin always be like oh yeah, you got to dress up and shit and he's literally the best dress out of this guy.
Speaker 1:Shout out to Sunday swagger because they got the nice polos.
Speaker 2:I'm like you know what.
Speaker 1:I'll rep this shit. I will rep this shit.
Speaker 2:You had all the nice polo. I was like those are the bread, though.
Speaker 1:I'm the brown Filipino, the bright ass polo, you're basically trying to be an influencer pretty much the golf influencer. I'm not not really golfing, I'm down. What do you mind? But I might be in a Huh. What the fuck, oh look how he's wearing it. Kevin's a watch is going on hard, it's like it's too loud in here.
Speaker 2:It's so dumb, stupid Siri.
Speaker 1:Why really you're getting too?
Speaker 2:loud. No, it's just like you know the like, the decibels and stuff, how it gets loud. They don't know listening or like what. I was at the Niner game. Every like 10, 15 minutes It'd be like you're in a loud environment. Oh no shit.
Speaker 1:We're the night. You track where I'm at dummy the fucking stadium.
Speaker 2:It's damn just scored. But yeah, uh yeah, the golf, great game. If you're into it, good. If you're not into it, I dare you try it. Just try it, I guarantee you.
Speaker 1:You can. You don't have to buy the, the the best equipment, you can just get a used. You get some used stuff, get all use, like Geoff is like the one. Joe was hilarious. Oh, I'm gonna buy these club sits. I'm like no dude, you suck like. Get, get, get the good, get the used ones.
Speaker 2:I mean he got a good set for the price. He even got a golf like a cart that came with it.
Speaker 1:Did you play?
Speaker 2:No, he hasn't played, yet he hasn't played, he hasn't even struck a golf ball.
Speaker 1:Yet To my knowledge if I, when I spent, like money on golf, I spent it on lessons so I could understand how to actually do what the fuck I'm doing?
Speaker 2:Yeah, I Understand that. That's that's good. That's good. That's how you should spend your money.
Speaker 1:That's what I'm saying. Yeah, but I mean the day he hasn't, but now he has a.
Speaker 2:He has a set now, so it's good perhaps get him out there eventually.
Speaker 1:Geoff, if you're listening to this, I love you. Like, go out and play go to the driving range or the driver is goddamn it. Congrats on your engagement to congrats, but anyways, what was it? What else, what else, what else?
Speaker 2:I mean golf. I mean now, we've had a blast with golf this year. 2023 was definitely the highlight. Like not the highlight, but like a big chunk of it was like golf.
Speaker 1:Well, cuz my wife was pregnant, and so when I started taking more days off to prepare for her birth mm-hmm, or the Giving birth to the due date I just found more days off and I just would head up Kevin and be like yo man, let's fucking go. It got so bad, like Kevin was like bro the due dates next week. Yeah, we got time.
Speaker 2:You're a psycho dude. I was like I would even have to be like no, I'm not playing.
Speaker 1:Yeah, there were like several days, or I'm like yo, we could do this three days away.
Speaker 2:Like no, yeah, definitely some good Lot more memories to come up. We're gonna go a lot more golfing. We're gonna we're gonna play pebble beach one day. We're gonna go Tory Pines.
Speaker 1:They were definitely doing that. Yeah, I want to go to our pies one day.
Speaker 2:But when I could hit the ball straight consistently, that'd be great.
Speaker 1:I mean we got to play the wasn't Tory Pines, it was their area next to the beach. Is that Tory Pines?
Speaker 2:That's in San Diego. Pebble beach is like by the no, in San Diego, tory Pines.
Speaker 1:Isn't there a section of Tory Pines where it's by the beach?
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, we should play there. There's different courses at Tory Pines.
Speaker 1:Yeah, cuz if we lose the ball, we deserve it.
Speaker 2:Oh, and I'm also like. You know me, I use red balls, right? Yes, I I'm making a declaration right now that I will never use a red ball again. Why? Okay, but apparently on all the forums and like red in stuff. If you use a red or a colored ball, you're you're an asshole.
Speaker 1:Why are?
Speaker 2:you suck so who said that? Everybody, I'm not doing it, I'm gonna.
Speaker 1:I'm gonna use entitlist probey one fucking, fucking blast little black ball out there.
Speaker 2:I'm gonna give a shit That'd be so hard to find, especially when you hit it into the woods and stuff. You're like when is it, where's the shadow ball?
Speaker 1:But yeah, really I'm making the decoration no just because of that I'm playing nothing but Fuck out of here. Fuck that shit, oh fuck. It'll be hilarious like you get so good you playing with like a yellow, bright ass, yellow ball in the tournament and you're beating everyone.
Speaker 2:Oh man people, I'm sure people get so mad about it Good, try all that shit.
Speaker 1:Yeah, people be so mad, but that golf is great people are buying them. People are buying the color balls. It's like people are racist. Man, you got play with a white ball, like what was wrong with a color ball? Well, no. I mean you shut like how, but how? What definition? What's the science?
Speaker 2:behind. You know what? I'm just cousin my opinion. I want, I want to be like, so I want to have enough money. So when I golf, like a range that I use real balls, oh, like, like, all, like, all, like, like, not probably once, but like performance balls because you know the ones at the range. They're like denser because they're made to last right, uh-huh. So it's not like a true testimony on how you're hitting prop like your yard, I'll take them home.
Speaker 2:You know what I? I'm not gonna lie, I'm not gonna lie. I've started buying the large bucket and only inning half. Oh shit, because I saw this Asian dude.
Speaker 1:He literally for sure, the Asian he come.
Speaker 2:He came with a Like a grocery bag and he dumped balls. I'm like bro Grocery bag like a fucking from like lucky seven or something like that, you know, and he just dumped the balls, hit and left. I'm like I mean that's so convenient because because sometimes hitting like 125 balls that's a lot.
Speaker 1:We get tired, you get tired.
Speaker 2:You don't want to give them to someone. You know I'll come back later, they're coming back.
Speaker 1:They're coming back to another range, but you guys know each other, you'll figure it out. Look, they're coming. You'll make some trades, don't you worry, it'll end up where he needs to be. Yeah, yeah so just trust fate.
Speaker 2:I've done that like twice now, and then the set when I've gone to my like um, to my uh, the second time with the bag and I'm just like this is so convenient, I don't have to go buy balls, I just go straight to the spot hit. Have a good time, go back to work, because I have when we're all done at work. I have like an hour and a half to like chill before I clock out, so sometimes I'll just zoom over to the range, hit some balls and go back to.
Speaker 1:That's what I need to start doing right now. Yeah, just hit some balls.
Speaker 2:That's what we should do before the podcast. Remember appointment with Kevin our time slot.
Speaker 1:This time slot would be we would be at the range right now. Yeah, it's so true.
Speaker 2:It's just I was like, what's this meeting with Kevin?
Speaker 1:Oh, yeah, that's right. Oh yeah, we're talking about the podcast and that you would see the location of the car. She's like are you at the range? And I'm like, yeah, how do you mean what?
Speaker 2:I'm meeting Kevin here. We're meeting up, that's all the range For an hour.
Speaker 1:That's so funny, dude so this is my 12th week of being a new dad. Yes, thank you.
Speaker 2:Let's thank you. Life step huge, life so huge.
Speaker 1:Living the dream, live in the dream, live in the dream. That's actually the first time I've used that yeah, that's a good push around with it. You always, you always, you always push the wrong button, but you I was actually hoping it was that, but yeah good, can you press?
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's true, but you, you got it right on this one, so yeah that one too.

Speaker 1:Yeah, like babies come out here. I didn't know that yeah, like yeah, some thick eyes.
Speaker 2:Whoa, that's my son, that's my son. That dude, that dude, squad in 350.
Speaker 1:So that was insane, and you know, newborn there's no sleep like they're up every two hours we got shifts it was always pumping for, for milk. It's insane dude.
Speaker 2:Have you? Have you used formula on junior?
Speaker 1:Yeah, now we mix and match make some action Okay because, but his it really fucks. Not fucks, but like it there, when, when, when a baby drinks breast milk, it's there, they, they're shitting like fucking 20 times a day right just runs through them, they easily digest it. It's an easier type of shit to clean up, like mustard and shit. Um, the moment you introduce formula has like more fat in there, okay.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's so. It takes him longer to process take them longer.
Speaker 1:He's like Like the diapers man, it's like the diapers, like the diapers, coming sizes like zero to one.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:I didn't know what the fuck this all man, but basically, the higher the number, the more capacity it could take. Oh um, but yeah, the, when we put him on formula that he was pushing that diverse capacity to the limit. It's like, oh fuck, like you open that shit. It's Yo, yeah, like the diapers, like I'm trying, man, like if the diaper could talk. It's like, bro, bro, you better change me now like dog.
Speaker 2:He's like it's like the Titanic, bro. It's like no, I'm going down.
Speaker 1:I'm going down, I'm giving it all. She's got, captain. That's why she can't take it anymore.
Speaker 2:Have you bought diapers? You, I mean you've had the bite, because at your shower people give you diapers right, I'm telling you diapers. Yeah, but it's like, it's not like they're all the same right, like there's newborn diapers.
Speaker 1:Yeah, there's newborn, there's like one, one, two, three, four, and I'm gonna think those mean months. I think that just means like you guys capacity right size two shits, size three shits, like that's. That's what I'm thinking yeah.
Speaker 2:So with that being said, like I'm not, I'm sure you don't. You didn't have an even number for every.
Speaker 1:No, there wasn't and I have to. It's always a battle to Giselle because she doesn't like wasting stuff, right, but like dude, there's only so much this newborn diaper can take, or my bro, we have to move up there was like three blowouts already, or like there's like like he's shitted yeah and you just feel the warm sensation of like that's, that's poop, that's done.
Speaker 1:And then I'll be like when I'm changing the diaper, giselle's watching me and I'm like, opening up the, the bigger package, huh, of like the size one. Shit, yeah, we need to go up. We're moving up and just like, what are you doing? I'm like we, we're moving up, you're moving up, and she goes no, he has so much more newborn. And I'm like, well then, you fucking take her. He's not stopping, you don't stop. So then. So we just got to one plus, and it took me a while for Giselle to To convince her. So there was one point where I stopped changing. I was like, oh, you change him, I'll go warm his bottle, I'll do all this. You want you change him. And then she goes okay, they show change. And she goes, oh my god.
Speaker 2:And I'm like, yeah, yeah, yeah, you want to go more. You know what I?
Speaker 1:keep you know that this one, this was like one, and then, and then I said there has to be a bigger number Because, like he grew so fast, right like I just switched to ones yesterday and now you're killing it. Like the ones are like nah man, yeah, yeah, the size one sheds are getting bigger, it's just so you.
Speaker 2:You've missed the size one window.
Speaker 1:There was no window. This is a sprint.
Speaker 2:Exactly like you, you stayed on newborn way too long.
Speaker 1:I think we did. I think because it was all trying to use, because a lot of people in the baby shower kept buying us newborn See that's what, see.
Speaker 2:That was. That was the idea. I was like I'm gonna buy something bigger, yeah, because I'm sure they're not gonna use it all right away, exactly. So you got it like you know what.
Speaker 1:Thank you for that next time.
Speaker 2:Okay, here's an idea. Here's an new app idea, okay, for baby showers. I think me and Romeo and the guys were talking about it like it's a betting app For you do the baby games, right, you do the baby games on this app, right. So it's like, oh, you know, you know how many times someone can say baby or stuff like this. So there's different games to bed on high, low, over, under, stuff like that. But there's also the diaper page, okay, where there's gonna be like newborn one, two, three, four, five, and everyone just signs up.
Speaker 1:I think you could just make the app based on the diapers.
Speaker 2:Well, we need the betting app because we need to make money.
Speaker 1:We need to make money somehow the betting app based on the diapers, because you also got to go over under piss to shit ratio. Okay, like like. There's times where it's just all piss. Okay, so you so sometimes it's like, sometimes you think like, oh, it's just. Yeah it's just piss like we like it's fine, but like no, he peas like he pisses like whoa like it's like look at his, danny, you're a pisser.
Speaker 1:No, but it's like, oh, this thing's like like you could feel it puff up to the point where it's like you know this, this takes good a burst.
Speaker 2:No shit in there.
Speaker 1:There's a lot of liquid If you gotta change this out and I could tell, like back in the day, how my dad was so cheap. When you know, when the grandparents are taking care of it, my dad, my dad, was the one. They you know the diapers. Now they have a litmus right. They turn. There's a stripe that turns from yellow to blue. If it's blue like oh, it's soil, change it. Yeah, done deal. I do it just for hygiene and purposes right, you know, I was just always pissing.
Speaker 1:and then my dad, he'll like He'll just be taking them. Sure, hey, if you're a parent and you do this, I'm not judging you, but I am judging my dad. So He'll be hold him junior and he'll like, oh, oh, he's checking the diapers. Oh, it's piss, oh, it's okay, just a little bit. I'm like, okay, that's what, I'll let it go. And then probably like two hours later, oh look, oh, oh, it's just pieces. Okay, I'm like, okay, all right. And then later on, like maybe another hour and a half, we'll check. Always what's your business, okay. And I'm like, dad, change the fucking diaper. Man.
Speaker 1:He's been sitting in his piss for three hours and he's been probably pissing even more so, but that's like. Oh, but no shit, and I'm like, and I'm like how did you do me?
Speaker 2:You still need to change the diaper, buddy.
Speaker 1:So that, yeah, so I'll go such a character. Yeah, no, he's hilarious, he's my dad's ultimate protector. It's just like this is like a 180, because like, and he won't be afraid, like when my mom's like holding him, he's like you're going to drop him. Like, no, no, no, you're gonna drop him. You're gonna drop him now. No, support the head. No, there's too much. And then he he's looking at my house and he's like he was looking at my place and he sees like the shelves right, he goes earthquake dangerous. Oh my god, no, no, no. So he's like trying to like. He's always trying to like shield junior from it. Like when we're taking out, we were taking him out to walk.
Speaker 2:And then there's a son.
Speaker 1:He's like, you have to cover him. It's too much, the son's too much. I'm like dad, no, it's fine Like you need some.
Speaker 1:I want to, I want him to get some sunlight, so no, he's also too cold, so he's like covering him blankets and shielding. I'm like what the fuck? And then he was like there's one time I was trying to push a junior on the on the stroller and he was trying to like you try to body check me, to like grab over, and I'm like that is my son. Like no, I'm pushing him, he goes. No, no, I push him, I'm his granddad. I'm like no.
Speaker 2:You had your chance 34 years ago. Okay.
Speaker 1:But yeah, no, it's a, it's a trip man.
Speaker 2:That's why I was man. It's a school, it's a trip. I mean, that's you know, that's the gift of life. You know what I mean. You're raising a child to be in this world, so, nuts, you're training this child to be the next best golfer, like.
Speaker 1:Mobile player coder. Just don't want to put him in coding class.
Speaker 2:I'm just letting you know. You make a lot more money on the pga to it. That's so true. Less, less impact on the body too. I mean fair enough. I don't think you get CTE from playing golf, so it really depends on what he wants to do, though. Yeah, he could do whatever he wants, just golf's involved and football.
Speaker 1:I'd be lying if I said football.
Speaker 2:You do whatever you want, but we got a football Everything gotta be a niner fan oh you better, Don't listen to your mom, okay dude, I don't know.
Speaker 1:Just I was like I have a tiger one thing for him to wear. I'm like he ain't wearing it on game days.
Speaker 2:Hey, you can wear it. For what Tiger Wiz is for sure.
Speaker 1:You bet I'm like now he's wearing I'm just saying, ever since he's been wearing a niner onesie.
Speaker 2:They've been winning.
Speaker 1:They've been winning I mean ever since you had a kid.
Speaker 2:They've been winning. So I'm just saying let's see where we are next year, what happens, base on what happens in this year. It will see.
Speaker 1:So if If if it all works out? If it all works out, does it mean he keeps wearing a niner onesie or we have to have another kid?
Speaker 2:another kid. You know why? Because because he's a blank canvas. There's no dark energy, it's all just good energy, good niner energy. So so he's, he wants once this if everything works out, he's tapped, he's done. He's just too much. He's a double-a battery. He's used up already Still usable but not as good. So we need a fresh one out of the pack. Giselle, it's on, you, it's on you got a man up. Whoa, I didn't say that, I just said let's just grow this beautiful family.
Speaker 1:They're warming up man up. You can't see man up anymore.

So, paradigm, you know some good stuff, but whatever he wants, whatever he wants with golf Football minors coding, coding. Okay, imagine this your son is a football star, plays golf and knows how to code, and he codes an algorithm of a golf swing and he's able to like, make it the best ever.
Speaker 1:I think that's already done, right, yeah, but perfect.
Speaker 2:Oh, I'm thinking about like an algorithm that could fix anyone swing at any time. That would be pretty cool, that would be insane. Then we make millions off that. We Dude, I'm, I am. I am the one telling that. I'm like when you guys are looking like junior, create the perfect algorithm for golf swings.
Speaker 1:You are going to be his godparent, that's wild yeah, did you did you? Did you get the text from Giselle yeah to classes. We have two classes. You have to take some class.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we got. We had class on the 26.
Speaker 1:I believe they said like you got to take classes because, like, for those who haven't been to church or something for like a certain amount of years, you have to take a certain amount of classes. Okay but I was like Michael goes to church every day. I'm like why can't we use his rollover? It's like to cover all over minutes from church.
Speaker 2:No, but here's the thing like how do they know they don't?
Speaker 1:know, how do you know? But Victor's actually gonna be the one.

Speaker 1:He's gonna have to figure it out with war.
Speaker 2:Oh my god, junior, don't listen to this. No, really, that's. That's like the movie you gotta have, like two to three. We'll have three, two to three outfit.
Speaker 1:I'll just also on tripping about it. We just had a photo shoot with him.

Speaker 2:Oh, you guys took pictures in the apartment.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was like a whole thing.
Speaker 2:You didn't go to like the forest or something. Or the one where you do, you guys do, the one where you cut the pumpkin and then put the baby in the pumpkin.
Speaker 1:No, I just, we just we just had like a little bucket I'm doing putting them in some weird.
Speaker 2:Make sure we CGI the grass and the sand in the background, please. Why?
Speaker 1:am I gonna go out of my way? I'm tired as fuck. I don't gotta sleep. I'm gonna fuck you, cut a pumpkin in half and have this guy fucking sit in there.
Speaker 2:No, yeah, all the seeds and you got to scoop out the seeds?
Speaker 1:No, bro, we had like a bucket.
Speaker 2:That's so funny.
Speaker 1:It wasn't like a janitor's, because one of those fancy buckets I've just I'll probably bought. You put your towels in there like the bucket, like they put. Like it's like I'm calling it a bucket, but some it's another name, oh, a hamper, but it's something like that. But you know, they carried me to look really nice. Okay, nice, nice and um, you know, we did all that, but junior was getting tired. I was getting tired. I was like, because junior was like brah, I just want to sleep.
Speaker 1:Yeah no, just you know you gotta stay awake, the fuck.
Speaker 2:Hey man, it's time to work. Time to work, buddy so I was tired.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you'd be so proud I was tired. Just, I was tired. Yeah, of course, junior was tired, I get that so we slept. But the photographer thought that the photography was good and and, and and that, and that is where we, so we have fancy pictures there. That's nice to your, to your point of the of the baptism Outfits. That is a Giselle question. We're just, we're just trying to figure out where we're gonna eat. So I, oh, I said my shoes, what's my shoes. It's a steak place.
Speaker 2:Dude, you know what an idiot, how many people you're expecting to come out here? Five shut up. So you have the godparents, you have your parents.
Speaker 1:You know, the godparents, and just us really yeah.
Speaker 2:That's the case. Let's go to mourns.
Speaker 1:No, the parents are coming. I think the Uh cuz, jaleen, micah, and then the parents yeah parents and then Josh yeah, so just, it's gonna be small, it's not gonna be like my mom's been pushing it like, oh, how many people are we going to invite? Like this, ain't no typical Filipino Grisening ma Well, yeah, but we're not inviting like the whole damn neighborhood. Right, right, like man, no, we're gonna do an intimate one. Okay, I like 15. Okay, ten people.
Speaker 2:Well, you know there's gonna be other babies there, right? What isn't there? Like you can't, just, were you just running out the church?
Speaker 1:I'm gonna figure something out.
Speaker 2:Okay, I'm just I'm on to the understanding that they don't necessarily do christenings like just by appointment basis, it's like like a monthly thing.
Speaker 1:Well then we're gonna have to figure out a way to block out the other people.
Speaker 2:Just one baby.
Speaker 1:No, I mean I don't yeah, I don't mind that, that's fine, it's just yeah. The reception thing, just I was like when are we gonna take every?
Speaker 2:I think we're gonna Eureka you know, it's funny because Zoe Romeo's baby.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, sitting.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I think like a month ago I can't remember exactly what but there was like I think it was only one other baby also that was there, and then Zoe would like you know we're moving, would like calmer and like she'd be kind of making like low, like she getting a little antsy right. Yeah, I was always doing great, you know, and then the other baby started like yelling.
Speaker 2:Yeah that's right, our babies better you know. But yeah, that's just from my experience that there there might be multiple babies and stuff and it's it's wild to see like so many babies in one room. They're all getting christened at the same time. Yeah it's just like wow.
Speaker 1:Yes, it's babies.
Speaker 2:It's babies.
Speaker 1:Oh, you got a baby too. Shit, you must be tired.
Speaker 2:We're all looking at you like, Like you know, you tip your cap to the guy across the street.
Speaker 1:How much caffeine you got.
Speaker 2:I'm on meth Whoa You're one crack, yeah, but you know that's gonna be a fun ceremony. Drop a little water, Give the blessings.
Speaker 1:Well, I got the the DJ party package for. On. The drop of the beat is when we when Victor's gonna drop in the water.
Speaker 2:Yeah, okay, the sandstorm the sandstorm. That's wild.
Speaker 1:No, the big one's gonna be his first birthday.
Speaker 2:Oh my god.
Speaker 1:Let's jump happening I.
Speaker 2:Guess I'll cover the cost of the which on really as a godfather. Good fuck out of here I should, it's just right.
Speaker 1:I'm shipping it straight from the Philippines. Shut the fuck up what.
Speaker 2:what is your problem? That is the worst idea I've ever heard. Like no, I don't worry, I got you, don't worry, oh, I'll cover that really there's yeah, I'll cover it what's like what? 500, 600 bucks. We'll get the big one too.
Speaker 1:Get the big one, and we're gonna go together and pick out the pig. I.
Speaker 2:Don't know if that's a thing, but sure if we could do. That used to be a thing they used to. My dad used to take you?
Speaker 1:Yeah, you shouldn't have told me. Now I know about it, you know okay.
Speaker 2:When.
Speaker 1:I was a kid. He's like, yeah, that's go.
Speaker 2:Funny story like when I was in culinary school we went to this farm called Amy farms Amy's farm RIP. It's gone now, oh shit. But so basically it was just a way to get the free labor from like culinary students, because we went to this tomato field and we had to put down all these steaks and shit and I was just Part of your curricula.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I thought we're getting like, like, like lettuce and you know, vegetables and then. So at the beginning of the session they had pigs. They're gonna slaughter a pig and they didn't know Warning. They fucking shot the pig in the head. Yo, what the fuck? And in front of you guys, yeah, in front of us they. They shot him and I didn't say fire like firing the hole. Oh, they're like all right, we're gonna slaughter and they just shoot you like down range.
Speaker 2:No, I mean like they were, like I wouldn't say that I would. They shot in the opposite direction obviously. Yeah but it wasn't like. It wasn't like like there wasn't any protection, oh, and they didn't even tell us they were gonna fire and they just fired. They fired was like oh.
Speaker 1:Amen, it's.
Speaker 2:I'm just saying it's not how I would have done it so, but yeah, so they slaughtered a pig and they I don't. They didn't show us what how to slaughter a pig, but it was just like. I just remember them shooting it in front of us and I was just like Yo, why did not y'all give us like a, a warning? So I would imagine if we were to go pick a pig, we'd see it like it shot.
Speaker 1:So I Just remember when my dad did it for the goat, you they, they picked the goat. Yeah, do it in the back.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't remember.
Speaker 1:Like gargling, isn't it bad, though, like you said, they said the throat.
Speaker 2:Well, yeah, there's like different, like Like ways to do it. You want to do it the most humane.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like this way, you know what I mean Because you don't want them to suffer.
Speaker 2:Yeah so I'm not sure how. I'm not, I'm not familiar, but I know that you'd hang it upside down. Jesus Christ so that when you you get the blood, it all just flows out quickly Because you don't want it to stay inside very long, because that would make is. That's what gives the meat like a very gamey flavor when you kill it so you want to drain the blood out quickly, so oh yeah so speaking of where food comes from.
Speaker 2:But no, but like. But. When juniors first birthday, let me know we will get a lichon. And then what do you know? You have any idea where you're gonna do it?
Speaker 1:If we stay here, we'll probably do it in the same area.
Speaker 2:Okay, because I would suggest maybe getting like a hall that has a kitchen. You know what I mean. I'm open to that because what we could do is, after you know, near like, let's say, halfway through the Party, when everyone's had their fill of food, we could actually take the litch on and we can make litch on, pux you I haven't had pucks.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we could do it like on the spot, like in the hall, in the kitchen. We could cook it like we get shredded up, cook it up, and then everyone could go home with some, you know what was the last time you actually did a full-on like food prepare night?
Speaker 1:used to do this for us, usually like cook ramen for us, man. Yeah so bomb? Like when was the last thing you actually did like a food thing, a?
Speaker 2:while, but I I really wanted to get back into it this year. But you know, just 2023 was not my year. This year it just some roadblocks happened and just wasn't nothing. It didn't really go my way this year. So I'm hoping 2024 will be better and I really want to get back into the cooking and doing stuff like that. So we're gonna we're gonna work on something, for sure Gonna be fun.
Speaker 1:I cooked adobo for the first time.
Speaker 2:Oh.
Speaker 1:I tried to emulate Kasama's Cuz. I saw him when I was a. I was watching the today show clip on YouTube and they're covering Kasama, the Michelin star in Chicago? Yeah, I'm yeah, I'm sure you know about it. So he was first off those hostesses. They're like so rude to him because they're just trying to like rush him like oh, what, what is this I don't know.
Speaker 2:Oh, you realize like they only have like two minutes.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I know.
Speaker 2:Right, but I get it like yeah, long story short, he wasn't.
Speaker 1:You grilled the chicken both sides. He browned it three or four minutes on he was using a chicken thigh and then he put on another pan and he added vinegar or white vinegar, soy sauce and then brown sugar sure and garlic sure like, and then you like, let it Simmer yeah, simmer yeah four or five minutes. Yeah and that was that that's it. That's it. No bay leaf or Bailey. He put bay leaf. No peppercorns, I think it's a little bit pepper.
Speaker 2:Okay, a dobo. One thing about adobo is you have to put whole peppercorns. I didn't, I didn't do that because you know why it's not adobo, until you take a bite of chicken and then you get a piece of pepper, corny.
Speaker 1:So I made it, but I didn't read the part where I was. Yeah, I grilled the chicken on each side three or four minutes on the skillet or on this yeah, no, the cast iron, cast iron. And then I put on another pan or I sweat the garlic or whatever, and then I put, I put the chicken in there, but the soy sauce, put the vinegar, one part vinegar, one point soy sauce. And then I Put a whole ass cup of brown sugar in there.
Speaker 2:Damn, that's sweet. But what kind of vinegar? Juice, white vinegar, what? What brand? The, the, oh shit is like the Filipino brand the Filipino.
Speaker 1:Okay, you're good, you're good, the one you always find in the key oriental like I didn't want you to be using, like some Heinz white vinegar. No, it was the one with the Filipino guy with the spear, like the front, like yeah, this is the one that Nana uses. Um, so I put that. I know I let it simmer 45 minutes and it started getting syrupy and I'm like I think I put too much sugar.
Speaker 2:Did you water? No, okay, see, that's what you're missing. So when you okay, when you see your your chicken and then you're making your sauce which is the, you know, vinegar, the soy sauce, the brown sugar you gotta put water, because you still gotta cook your chicken, buddy the chicken cooked pretty well. Yeah, I know, but like you gotta like, so that um, but the guy didn't add water. I Just think I maybe because his chicken was like cooked all the way through, but normally so I should add water.
Speaker 2:Cuz my kid, my chicken, a little cook after it was good because, to be honest, you don't have to like sear it first Technically. But if you want that, like I like searing texture, I guess it's fine. But adobo's a stew, you know I mean. You just put everything in a pot, it's a one pot dish and then it's good to go. You know what I mean. But yeah, you add water so that it doesn't become syrupy. It reduces. You know what I mean? Oh, yeah. So yeah, it's not a little water. If it's like too thick, you add a little water to it. You know, some people like their double like, not like with a lot of like sauce, or you know what I mean.
Speaker 1:Some people like it's saucy sometimes the adobo was like that my mom and my mom made. Her adobo was like oily in a good way. Yeah, of course it's like savory. This is this one, you just add oil.
Speaker 2:That's no, no, that's because of the chicken. The fat from the chicken that's what you use. The water Because when you're, when you're cooking that chicken down, it rendered the fat, renders out into the water into the water, into the sauce. I see the sauce because what? Because once the once you cook out the water, then you're left with, like this, all that stuff, yeah, so.
Speaker 1:I mean you're learning. So I'll do it again. You do it again. Damn it.
Speaker 2:Or you could go full traditional Filipino do half chicken, half pork, you know how much?
Speaker 1:what's the macros on an adobo?
Speaker 2:You know what? It's funny. You say that, buddy, because you know doing macros with ant and stuff are my go-to protein is shrimp. Shrimp is like the goat of of um protein, because it has good flavor and, and the ones from costa that are frozen, you can literally count them for each serving. Huh, so there's like eight right and eight, eight Per serving. So sometimes for my lunch I'll have like three servings of it and I'll just get huge amounts of protein and not a lot of fat. That's what, that's what's so great about it. Because shrimp for shrimp, dude, let me show you, let me, let me, let me break this down really quick. Um, so shrimp from Costco. So eight shrimp, three servings, you're getting 66 grams of protein and 1.5 grams of fat, mmm, from shrimp. And I know some you're like I don't like seafood. Well, you know what? Buddy? Go and eat chicken breasts your whole life. Okay, I'm not doing it. Okay. And there's one also that I've recently found that is that is almost goat.
Speaker 2:Macros as well, too, and some people are like I don't like that, you know. And it's a pork loin. Oh, so pork loin. Four ounces of pork loin is 23 grams of protein to four grams of fat. That's pretty huge. So I I don't usually do ounces, when I'm like measuring, I'm doing grams right. So 150 grams you're getting 30 grams of protein and 5.3 grams of fat. And the reason why I bring this up is because at Costco they sell pork loins like that's like this long, like a foot and a half long pork loin, and you just cut it up and at one point they had five dollars off. So I had bought a whole pork loin for like 20 bucks. Yo, that's cheap and it's great macros, you know.
Speaker 1:So what's the macros of adobo?
Speaker 2:I mean, if you're using pork, I don't know.
Speaker 1:That's a good question if we're using chicken just just off the top of your head.
Speaker 2:Let me, let me you know what we got my fitness pal premium. Oh, so I think we could find something for adobo, chicken adobo okay, one serving Good thing. One serving of chicken adobo is, uh, 21 grams, 21.2 grams of protein and 15.9 grams of fat.
Speaker 1:One gram of corn.
Speaker 2:better, I mean if it's paleo, that's good, it's paleo, it's good, but I think what's the calorie count? This, for one serving, is uh 224.
Speaker 1:That's not not bad, not bad at all salt content.
Speaker 2:Um, you show, I think, oh yeah, I have it right here. Uh, sodium 520 milligrams, and I don't know where this, I don't know what the recipe they're using here. So of course we could tweak this to be less sodium, you know.
Speaker 1:But yeah, you still less sodium. Soy sauce sodium. It reduces sodium by like 500 grams that is that serious, or you just? Make it.
Speaker 2:Okay, or you could use um tamari. You know, tamari is good too. It's like it's made from, it's not Uh it's tamari. It's like a different type of soy sauce. Uh, I can't remember what it is it's soy sauce.
Speaker 1:It tastes like soy or is it like? A vegan.
Speaker 2:It's like I don't know, is this a vegan? No, I'm just soy, oh it's beans.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, my bad. I thought I was like you know what I mean like an alternate version of soy sauce, which isn't really the real thing. Right, right, right.
Speaker 2:Yes, he uh. Oh, oh, oh, oh. So tamari is made from soybeans, water, salt and koji, which is fermented rice. It is a liquid that is collected from miso, a soybean paste it is. It's. It's another form, it's not a different. I forgot there was something. Does it taste similar? Yeah, similar taste. I just can't remember why people would get. I think it's because of the. It's like uh, it's supposed to be a low carb or something like that. I can't remember. I might be thinking of a different, different type of soy, a gluten free. It's supposed to be a gluten free type of soy sauce. So I don't know. But, uh, we could tweak it. Um, we could do something like that. But pork loin is my new thing right now.
Speaker 1:Pork loin adobo.
Speaker 2:Well, you do pork loin. It's just like you got to be just careful when you cook the pork loin cause it's lean, right. So it's going to get tough, real tough, you know. But I mean, if normally people make it like one pot, like it's like for one or two meals, it should be okay.
Speaker 1:If you were to serve adobo on an alternate version not with a car, but not rice what would it be and what would it?
Speaker 2:uh, I'm doing probably like uh, maybe some sort of like uh uh bean, really Like uh. Like maybe a kidney bean mash or something like that, so that would because you're getting more protein more protein or fiber or black IPs, something like that. Cause, when I was working at the restaurant, my chef, we had made a. We made curry, curry, curry right.
Speaker 1:I heard that's hard to make.
Speaker 2:It's really not that hard.
Speaker 1:You just slap on peanut butter and you let it stir right, no you're fucking.
Speaker 2:Spoken like a true don't know shit, you know, no, but what we did was we served. Uh, we made curry, curry with like ox tail, of course. Yeah, and then we did um some tripe. We don't like tripe, don't worry about it, there's other things we could use. And then, instead of rice we did like a black bean, kind of suck of tash sauteed black bean, not black beans, sorry, black IPs.
Speaker 1:So a dobo with black bean is like one of the most protein.
Speaker 2:I think you, you, you're gonna get fiber, You're gonna get a lot of protein, cause you're getting protein from the beans. It's just, if you have gout, my bad like beans. Beans trigger gout.
Speaker 1:Do they? Yeah, oh shit it can.
Speaker 2:It can depend. Certain, certain beans can um cause they're high in a certain acid that triggers.
Speaker 1:Oh so if you, oh so, if you have gout, you can't even eat this dish.
Speaker 2:I mean you could eat the dobo you can't eat the beans.
Speaker 1:You can't eat the beans, so you might as well just go go rice, bro. Brown rice, brown rice.
Speaker 2:Or you go quinoa.
Speaker 1:Canoa, canoa, canoa.
Speaker 2:Canoa is good. Cauliflower. Cauliflower rice is good. You know what? Costco has great cauliflower rice Like they're just like individually packaged, heated up. It doesn't have the same consistency, but I mean you're getting some, some fiber. It's not bad.
Speaker 1:I cannot wait. We should do an episode when you're doing that, when you're doing a whole night where you're cooking us some good ass.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we should do an episode of us like uh, just cooking. We should Audio no, true, true, true radio show status, like we're just doing stuff. Like look at how we're browning the chicken. They're like they can't do you hear the browning, they can't see it.
Speaker 1:But no, we'll, we'll definitely, we'll definitely do something like that, for sure.
Speaker 2:We could do something like that you know I should round the kitchen, huh. I'm sure your apartment would be just fine. We don't need to round a whole kitchen.
Speaker 1:We got to like Martha's steward, this shit. That'd be a nice kitchen.
Speaker 2:Now stoop dog.
Speaker 1:Stoop dog will now help me.
Speaker 2:But yeah, but we could. You know there's some, there's some really good stuff out there.
