I should have been a canter. Totally.
We should have been canters, the canter guides. But yes, insane news.
I don't even know what to say. Like, yes, God willing, I'm going to be a father.
And it is like, honestly, like a dream come true. Like, I feel like everybody has been asking like my entire life, because I've been with my wife my entire life, like, when are you having a baby? You've been married for seven years.
And they say that you can't time these things. But like we took our time.
It's when it felt right. And I'm like the most excited I've ever been for something.
and to be able to host the podcast with somebody that I love, that loves his kids, that is a great dad. Like, I don't know.
I just feel like we're going to transform. We're going to transform from the good guys to the good dads.
The good dads. What? Okay.
So take us, start us in the process. Let's go from the beginning.
Yes. What were the conversations? When did we start? What did it look like? The people want to know.
So we started really talking about it at the beginning of the year. And we were like, this is something that we want to do.
We're not exactly sure when. We're not exactly sure how.
What's crazy to me is this idea that people all over the place are just getting pregnant by accident. It's hard as hell.
You have a very finite window to be able to shoot your load. I don't want to overdo it, but you're very finite.
Too late. You did.
You were not graceful with that one. To come in the pussy.
You have a very short window. A small window to bust in your home.
And like these people are just like doing it by accident. And these women are like in the bathroom and they like think they're taking a shit and they have a baby.
Like, I don't know if that's a wives tale wives tale, but this idea that you can get pregnant and be pregnant and have no idea is insanity. It's complete insanity.
So we started thinking about it. We really started trying over the summer, and yeah, struck gold.
And I don't think that we're officially saying how many weeks, but we are progressing, we are expecting a beautiful baby Safra at some point. So we're really excited, really excited.
It's really scary, man. We spoke about this last night.
It's scary. Maybe it's just because I'm a neurotic Jew, but the idea of talking about something that is actively happening but hasn't happened yet is very scary.
That whole, like, don't count your chickens before they hatch. Like, I don't know how you're just like only excited.
I'm so, so unbelievably scared and God willing, everything looks good. And you're going to hear me say, thank God.
I'm turning into a rabbi. Like, this is it.
Like, I'm thank God with everything, right? Everything now, everything. I'm like, this doctor's appointment was great.
Thank God. Thank God.
BH like Baruch Hashem. Like, it's so scary.
And I don't know, like, were you scared? I was scared. Yeah.
I mean, look, the Jews, we are wild with the amount of, of nerves you know, where it was superstition that I mean, my buddy Len, his mother, Silva, God rest her soul, like literally did not acknowledge that his wife was pregnant to the baby was here. Yeah, wouldn't even talk about it was like, yeah, having a baby shower, unacceptable.
just because like, literally we don't do up, we don't, what we don't make nurseries. Like we don't do anything until the baby has arrived.
No, we don't receive gifts. Like Claudia's email was just flooded with like every baby company on the planet.
And it's like, we don't want to receive anything until we're so much further along or the baby is here. It doesn't take nine months to build a nursery.
Okay, we're not hiring these Fakakta construction workers that work at LaGuardia on a 10-year project. You could build a nursery in two days.
Right. Like the whole prep thing to me, it's just a bad omen.
I don't like it. And I'm withvia sylvia or sylvie regardless i'm with sylvia like i if i if i wasn't so public i wouldn't be so public but we're here we're here so now i just got to learn to live with the really incredible blessing that is coming and also managing my nerves in the process not to make it all all about myself, which it isn't, which is why in case you're watching on Josh's YouTube, I am wearing a beautiful shirt with my wife's face on it because this isn't about me, okay? I'm going to make it about me this episode for the views, but it's not about me.
It's about her. It's about you right now, Ben.
Listen, Claudia is having her tour right now. It's working.
She got like a million Patreon followers out of this. It's about the good guys getting a little fallout.
Please. We need it.
This is literally joy. This is with Tim Walz for bringing joy back.
This is literally an emergency episode. If I look sweaty, it's because I ran here from the gym.
I'm wearing Claudia's merch because it's what was in the studio other than my gym t-shirt like we sprinted here we're like we gotta capitalize three days late so good so so good literally ben was texting me last night and we were talking about how we failed to capitalize on this big news and i said nothing is more us than failing to capitalize on the biggest layup ever. I hope you guys loved listening to our thoughts on the election this past Monday.
Two weeks late. Can I share with you then, or can I share with the audience when the first time you told me that you and Claudia were open to trying or you were kind of beginning? Yeah.
We were, I think it was, you were in LA and we were on a hike and it was beautiful. And I just remember you looking at me and you said, you know, we have, I have some news.
And I said, okay. And Ben goes, I've begun to complete inside of Claudia.
And I was like, oh my God. You're like, we are trying to conceive and it's very exciting.
And I said, it is. That visual, less exciting, but the fact that you're trying, very exciting.
I probably looked like this. It's so intimate, isn't it? It's so intimate.
It is. It's beautiful, and then it's heavily rehearsed.
Like, I don't know if, like, I feel like girls are always talking about pregnancy journeys and guys aren't, but boy, oh boy. Yeah.
Tell us about it, Betty. We got, we got a specific amount of time.
That's the way that it works, folks. If you're just stooping every day of the month, you're not going to get pregnant.
If you're stooping during the very specific period of time where the woman is ovulating,

then you have a chance and it's timed, right?

Like you only have a certain number of hours to get it done.

And I'm not going to lie, from a male perspective, sometimes it's difficult to wrap your head

around it.

Like sometimes you're not ready and you got to psych yourself up and get ready. And thankfully I was able to- Can't relate.
I won't divulge more. I won't divulge more.
I'm always ready. Are you kidding me? Please.
Okay, you're always ready. What about a full Carbone meal? Me and you go to Carbone, okay? Yes.
You go to Carbone. We're getting the bread basket.
We're getting the chicken parm. We're getting the pasta.
The galam. We're getting the steaks.
We're getting the delicious dessert at the end. Maybe a cheesecake to make sure you're a little bit gassy.
And then those beautiful tricolor chocolate. The rainbow cookies.
The rainbow cookies. Yes.
And then Paige calls you and says, Josh, I need you. Yes.
No, you can't do it on a stomach like that. I would be fine, but I would just be like, there will be toots involved.
Like, and, and Josh, one, two moments over. Then good luck.
Good luck getting Jimmy back in the saddle. Okay.
When that moment's over. Good luck getting him to ride that horse again.

I call him James. I use the classic name, not Jimmy.
I don't do the abbreviation.

Not Jimmy. I call him the craziest part.

As a celebrity chef, I know, okay, I know these products, fantastic. You should all use them.
But let me explain to you what I've been using them to make recently. Yesterday, I made the most gorgeous grilled pizza.
I used my Carraway griddle to grill the pizza. Then I used my saucepan to make the onions, mushrooms, garlic, a little bit of red pepper flakes, some olive oil.
It was fantastic. I put that on my grilled pizza, added some ricotta cheese, a little bit of truffle cheese.
It was like a truffle gruyere. It was unbelievable.
A little bit more truffle oil.

And then I put it back in that griddle pan from Carraway,

broiled it, and it came out absolutely fantastic.

These products are unbelievable.

And again, non-toxic.

Yeah, it's funny. if you over the summer at any time saw Ben going 110 miles per hour on the long island expressway back from one of our recordings it's because claudia told him that she was in heat you ever saw me sprinting literally 140 so true it's so beautiful Yeah, it's beautiful.
I actually can't wait. Like I know and you like ground me if you disagree.
I know you don't agree. Like I was so born to be a dad.
Like I so cannot wait. I have such an amazing relationship with my parents.
Thank God. And I just know what it's like to be in a loving home.
And I cannot wait to give this baby like literally the ride of a lifetime. Like I cannot wait.
I am so excited. People think I'm insane the way that I love and treat my pets.
Like if I can take even like the smallest bit of that into an actual child i i'm gonna make i'm making a an albert einstein by the way if they're if they're stupid i'm gonna kill myself they can't be stupid right they can't they have to be smart hopefully they are pretty and stupid that's ideal are you kidding me what do you want it to me actually we don't want we don't want too smart. We want gorgeous and just, just a tiny, a tiny bit dumb.

You don't want brilliant and a rat face.

No, thanks.

No, that I don't want.

An ugly know-it-all?

No, no, I don't want that.

You're so right.

I don't want like a Sheldon Cooper or like a Einstein or a, I guess even a Musk, even

though that would be pretty cool.

He could take care of us.

If, if I give birth to an Elon Musk, $350 billion, $5 billion right to you. Thank you.
No, let me get in at the ground level. I'll invest.
You know, the thing with your kid that you'll see is that you'll have no idea of exactly how they're going to come out. That's the one thing I always say, and I don't think you're like this when parents go, oh, they're going to be a soccer star or they're going to be an academic or I'm going to get them into Harvard or blah, blah, blah.
I'm like, you have no idea what your kid's going to be. And I think, I truly believe that we as parents, it's our job to react to what they show to us is their passion, is the thing that they're proclivity and to honor that thing and to make them the best version of how they come out.
Yeah. And I think that because we're both such big self-starters, very entrepreneurial in nature, this idea of you can only be good at one thing is so absent-minded.
Like you truly can be great at whatever you want to be great at. Of course, physical gifts aside, right? Like you can't be great and be an NBA player if you're five, six, little Jewish.
No, of course not. But like anything else you really, I think it's just having parents from a very young age, make sure that you know that you can do whatever you set your mind to.
So I totally agree with you. I'm going to start giving you unsolicited advice in this podcast, and it's not going to stop until the beautiful baby is here.
But the best advice I ever got, because now that the world knows, and I'm sure you you've already gotten it who gave it to you? what celebrity? Jeff Garland yes knew it from Curb Your Enthusiasm shout out Jeff and I was I remember I was I was about to have my son Max and I was just lamenting some neurotic thing about what what was going to happen and how I was going to react and And he goes, let me stop you right there. He goes, you have no idea what kind of kid you're going to have.
You have no idea if they're going to be a little colicky, if they're going to have this, if they're going to have that, if they're going to sleep really well right away or not sleep at all. He's like, all you need to know is that it's going to be great.
It's going to be so great. And any minor inconvenience like lack of sleep, which happens, or the fact that you can't do brunch as often, is going to be so overshadowed by how great it is.
And that's what I always tell new parents, because I think people have a weird fetish for freaking out new parents and being like sleep now you're never gonna sleep again like shut up so dumb i even have friends that like treat treat like the last days almost like a bachelor party they're like i'll never be able to see my friends again so i'm gonna go and like go on as many golf trips as. It's like, you'll see your friends again, relax.
You'll probably see your friends more if your friends also have kids, but like life goes on and life to exactly what you just said. It's beautiful.
And I really, I'm very, very ready and very, very excited. Everybody's been wondering why are Claudia and I on on such a diner kick we go to three diners a

weekend this is why because claudia is really really excited to leave the house around 9 10 in the morning and then really really excited to be back in the house at 1 p.m and our weekends are very cozy like our weekends are our movies and and hanging and talking and And we're so ready.

We're so ready.

Nesting.

Love it.

We're heavily nesting. Everybody's like, where are your final trips going to be? Like, I took my, I've taken, I've traveled.
Like, it's great. Like, I don't know, maybe we'll go for a week to Florida or something, but like this whole idea of like this big final trip again, like, no, like I will travel again.
I will travel with this baby. Like maybe not like the points guy style.
Like Brian is slinging Dean to San Tropez, which I wish I could do. Brian's on another level.
It's unbelievable. Unbelievable.
But this idea that your life is over it's the it's those same stupid

guys that feel that way about getting married like then why the hell are you getting married why are you having a kid and why are you getting married this is growth it's supposed to be fun it's supposed to be exciting it's supposed to be better filled with purpose it's all gonna be great I find like as people with a certain level of privilege and access to you know working on ourselves and methodologies and all the things that people do like of the modern era right like you work on yourself and you become like the best hopefully the best version of you as a single person but then you enter a relationship and your spouse or your partner forces you to grow more because now you're seeing yourself reflected through them and you're seeing things you could have never seen on your own. And that pressure is pushing you in which to grow and to change because you have to accommodate this person that you love.
Yeah. And then I feel like that hits a ceiling and then you have a kid and then the both of you are reflected through that kid and it forces more growth and makes you have to be even more of a, you know, just of like a fully formed human being.
And I'm, I'm kind of in on the whole process. Like I always tell my wife, like if I was on, you know, Chicago med or, you know, law and order Poughkeepsie, I'm like, I would just have, I would just have a gang of kids, like seven, eight kids go to my nine to five, have just a compound, a soccer team.
I love it. it i love it and i know that we're both big words of affirmation guys we love it from our wives like claudia recently like of course like you're gonna have you're gonna have some mood swings during this time period oh who claudia no not her somebody else my not my wife.
Oh, please. My wife.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah.

But then after that, like, Sheila, look at me.

And it's so sincere.

And it's just like, I love you so much.

You're going to be such an unbelievable dad.

And like those words, I can't explain it.

It's like heaven on earth.

Heaven on earth.

It's so true.

And I think we're allowed to say what we just said.

And also in the same breath, be like, yeah, it's, it is really hard being like the, the partner to the person who is creating life in their stomach. Like it is.
So I remember once it's six months of being pregnant. My wife goes, I can't really breathe.
It's because the baby was resting on her diaphragm and she couldn't breathe for the next four months. So yes, there are certainly moments, but the truth is, is they are doing such a Herculean task.
Oh my God. Suck it up and you call me, babe.
You call me. Suck it up.
No, I don't even need to. I'm in such like a good head space.
Like I know, I know what's like i'm fine with it like i really just like it's more than a herculean effort i can't even believe it like we went to a doctor's appointment recently a doctor's appointment and like i could see the baby being formed like the first doctor's appointments you're going and they're like a pile of mush and then like as you start to see things, you see a heartbeat, you see a hand, you're like, oh my God, this is like in you. Like it's, it's in your belly.
It's insanity. Meanwhile, I have hands in my belly, but they're like chicken or like, you just sonogram my belly and there's a neck, but it's like a horse neck.
It's just a big Popeye's billboard. Come on in.
The biscuits are fresh. Is that an ankle? No, it's a chicken bone.
Oh, my God. Olivia, what do you think of all this? I'm sitting back here just like on the verge of tears.
It is like so beautiful and exciting to hear. Like, I don't, it's just such, I mean, how do you even begin to describe it? It's such an incredible life-changing event.
And I'm just so excited to see you become a father, Ben. I feel really honored to like be a part of the show too as this is happening.
Thank you. And I would be remiss not to mention that I did get a text yesterday, a mazel from Marshall.

A Marshall mazel.

Marshall did reach out and he said, mazel tov, I made a huge mistake.

I hate it over here.

I'm just kidding.

Just the mazel.

He doesn't hate it.

We don't talk about work.

We don't talk about work.

We're not allowed.

No.

We don't talk about anything. We're in an injunction currently.
We don't talk about we're not allowed no we're in an injunction currently about anything nothing um but i did get a i did get a nice text from marshall and a million other people but the good guys listeners should know marshall he's he's rooting for us oh it's so wonderful i i'm a big i'm a big fan of having these little these little jerks these little humans and it's all going to be great and i don't know if you guys are going to find out the gender you probably will but i i my wife and i we don't find out right so then you have to spend every visit which as you know towards the end becomes once a week sometimes. Telling the person who's going to do

the ultrasound if it's not, because eventually

they have people come in, text different people.

It's not always your doctor. So they don't

know. So you have to be like, we don't want to

know the sex. We don't want to know the sex.

Yeah. And every time they've given

it away. Every time

there's been a random nurse who's been like,

are you going to do a circumcision?

And I go,

on her? Oh no! nurse who's been like, are you going to do a circumcision? And I go, on her? Oh no. She's like, if it's a boy.
And I'm like, you ruined it. That's terrible.
Yeah. I'm sure that we will want to find out at some point, but knowing us will want to do like a big gender reveal.
Oh no. Don't start a fire.
You know us. Why? Why not? No, we'll figure that out.
But yeah, don't want to know just yet. It's funny that you brought up the text.
I'll save it. But my what are you nuts are these texts, OK? Honestly, it's the whole ultrasound sonogram process in general is a big what are you nuts? But I'll save it.

Folks, there are two things going on here. One, I'm broke.

See site for details. Well, I think we should get to a speak pipe so that we can, I think these are going to be some well okay first of all i thought we could do a quick quiz a little fun little quiz about pregnancy and facts about pregnancy and let's see how how down the clown you are let's see how much you know let's see about the adventure that is pregnancy.

Did you know that after a couple of months of development,

babies begin to do this in the khum?

They begin to do this in the khum.

Sorry, Olivia.

They begin to hiccup.

Oh.

They begin to laugh. They begin to hiccup oh they begin to laugh they begin to really pp a b or c oh which one oh oh oh it's multiple choice i was like all three of those things they begin to hiccup one a sorry it's p c crap what's really the difference between hiccuping and laughing? It's really the same.
All I know is my son Shy is a little hiccouper and it's freaking cute. It looks like he's drunk.
So what do you do? Do you scare him? Do you give him a nice slap on the back? I just watch him. I think he doesn't seem bothered by it, so it's hilarious.
I have a question on this slapping on the back, Josh. There are young fathers in my orbit that are nursing their baby, holding the bottle, not like teed out.
Bottle, baby, okay? Baby's done with the bottle. Then they flip him over, okay? And they're not gently trying to get a burp.
They're like this. And I'm like, what are you nuts? You're gonna break his back.
Like, have you seen an aggressive slapper to get a burp. They're like this.
And I'm like, what are you nuts? You're going to break his back. Like, have you seen an aggressive slapper to get that burp out? And is it necessary? As far as I know, the aggressive, aggressive slap is only if they're choking and then you can give them a you can whack them one.
Right. That's only yes.
If they're choking. I have some people do the over the shoulder.
Oh, I'm going to teach you all this.

I am an amazing, I'm so good at this stuff.

Okay, so first they'll do the kid over the shoulder.

You put a little rag here.

So in case they spit up, they always spit up.

It's so gross.

Okay, and then they'll just do like the gentle tab.

I like to take the baby like a puppet, right?

And I put it on my knee. So the legs are strewn here and the face and i hold i hold the face and the face is all like this like the rizzler you know what i'm saying and then i hold the face here and the back is here and i just give it like i'm giving like you know 30 percent you know%.
I'm not going full out. That's nuts.
I've seen 60% from the get. We're going to have to teach you.
You're going to have to get on your swaddle game, my boy. I'm excited.
I'm excited. Swaddling is the best.
I need to learn how to swaddle. You make that little baby burrito? I'm good with a diaper.
I'm good with a diaper. I will be good with a diaper.

That said, like cleaning somebody else's kid's shit, not for me.

My own kid's shit, for sure.

But like, I don't know.

In an emergency, will I do it?

Of course.

But like, am I dying to change Shy's diaper?

Not really. I'm not.
I'm over it's enough already it's almost two well he's only two years in a month so we're about to start training but it's enough i've had enough well now he does that thing where when kids start to like become aware that they're using the bathroom and there's a little bit of embarrassment about it,

all of a sudden we'll just see Shy in the corner of a room like this.

And in case you're not watching on YouTube, you should be,

because Josh's booty is out. What, Ben?

And he looked mysterious.

I was describing it for our audio-only listeners and shaming them.

Yeah, literally it would be like this.

Hold on, hold on, hold on.

This is why you need to watch this and not just do audio, you jerks. Well, now I can't see Josh either.
Oh, now I can. Josh has an embarrassed look on his face.
He's making a small duty. We'll be like, Shia, are you pooping? And he'll go, yeah.
Yeah. He'll tell us now.
He'll, poo-poo, and then we'll have to go and change him. At least he's telling you that's nice.
Oh, babe. I hate it when these kids are just soiled and you're like, did you shit your pants? And they're like, no.
Well, you smell like shit. So did you shit your pants? No.
Oh, babe. Why are you lying? It's so good.

Hey, good guys. So I was just wondering from like a male perspective, my boyfriend really wants to have a baby.
And you know, we've been together for four years. But he's addicted to Xanax and cocaine.
This is going to stop once we have aforementioned baby, but I'm not really sure, and I'm not looking to be a single mother. So let me know what you think.
Do people stop using once they have children? Or like, what's the deal? Why can't all freaking speak pipes be like that? Oh my God, that so good all right no i don't think that drug addicts abruptly stop using when their partner has a baby no i don't wow what a cocktail combo the xanax to cool him down and the cocaine to pop him up like peanut butter and jelly

baby just goes together that is fantastic no i definitely would not just give into a crackhead's demands but i could sense in your voice that you felt the same maybe get him cleaned up a little Pick one, okay?

Jimbo, pick one.

Yeah.

Xanax or Coke.

The Xanax and Coke, it's too much. It's too much for your heart.
I agree completely. I think it's probably better to wait.
By the way, if you want to leave us a message, go to speakpipe.com slash goodguys. You'll get our advice.
You can leave us questions. And don't mix Xanax and cocaine.
Next one. Hey, good guys.
Quick question. So my friend flies out to New York every single weekend or every other weekend to hook up with this billionaire, like loads of money.
And she has never signed an NDA because I guess every time he wants her to sign it, something happens. And she just doesn't mention it to him because she comes back with all the tea.
Well, fast forward to him asking her if she's ever told anybody about their situation. And she said, well, yeah, my girl's back home.
He called us and offered us $500,000 or sign an NDA off what my friend said. And I'm going to tell you, the stories aren't that great.
But he wants to offer us $ five hundred thousand dollars i mean obviously like i want to take it but isn't that kind of crazy is this a real story or like like or is it just like the timing with brianna chicken fry who by the way i saw I saw at UFC over the weekend and she's doing well.

She looks incredible.

She's doing great.

She's so nice.

She has such a great head on her shoulders.

Totally.

And she just is living

her best life.

Declining that 12 million

will make more back.

I thought of that

with this speak pipe.

By the way,

a random person

that you're not dating

offers you half a million dollars

to not talk about a third party. Duh.
Take it. Take it and run.
Can I have half a million dollars? Because now we're all kind of in on it. Like, can I have some money? I guess we're already talking about it on the podcast.
We're probably in breach. Also, like anybody who tells you that they're a billionaire, they're probably not just saying he probably has some good money.
People love to throw around the term billionaire. Like, you know, how many billionaires there are very few.
And most of them aren't flying people out to, to fuck them. Like, it's just like random people who are going to tell their friends, this whole thing is giving shady and made up, but hopefully that was good advice.
We've been asking people to make up speak pipes. So maybe she just was taking the direction.
You're right. Well, that was good, but it was a little too outlandish.
Yeah. I don't know.
The whole NDA thing, it sounds odd. I was once around a Chinese billionaire who

took me out for very expensive steaks

and then basically asked me to do a bunch of work

for his company for free. So I was like,

this just doesn't feel right. But we went and

we had milkshakes together in his Rolls Royce.

I think he just wanted to sleep together.

But he was very gentle.

You would look good on the arm of a Chinese

billionaire. I'm down to clown.
That's me in another light. That's all I'm saying, dude.
Like, those are the flashes that are going to come when you're looking at your beautiful baby child where you're going to be like, I could be on a yacht right now with someone who's in money laundering. Josh Chang, you'd be gorgeous.
Oh, my God. Because you'd obviously take his last name.
A hundred percent. My last name is Sullied.
Because he's a power player. I already had to change my last name from Peckerman to Peck.
By the way, you really wish you could change it back to Peckerman now, don't you? Oh, my God. Peckerman.
Ay, yay, yay. One more speak pipes? Yeah.
Okay, one more. This one's from Mackenzie.
Hey, good guys. First off, mazel tov to Ben on becoming a dad.
That is so exciting. I am so excited for the new dad and pregnancy content with Claudia.
Question is for Josh. I have a two-year-old girl and I am currently about 18 weeks pregnant with my second.
My question is, how was the transition for you and your wife going from one kid to two? And do you have any tips or advice on making that transition as smooth as possible? I'm a little nervous, but love the pod, guys, and thanks so much. Okay.
First of all, Mackenzie, love you. Don't do chores when you're leaving us speak pipes.
Okay? What are you organizing your desk? What are you putting paperclips away, Mackenzie? Not good. Not good.
I assume you're going to have, you guys are going to have a gaggle of kids, Ben? We'll see. I think so.
I i i feel god willing like three is the right number love it but but we shall see yeah i'm i'm one of two and i absolutely love my sister and i think being four was actually really easy like it's one table it's one hotel room. It's one car.
It's one five though. I think five is like the max before things get a little bit tricky.
Like once you're at six, six is a large vehicle. Six is a large table.
Six is multiple rooms. Six is just, and then seven, Holy smokes.
No way we ever touch five. That's nuts.
That's nuts. Can you imagine five Safar Ashris? Honestly? Sorry, Claudia.
It's kind of sick. I kind of love it.
I kind of love it too. Maybe you guys should blend your last name for the kids.
Safri? Safri. Safri.
Cute. Yes.
But no, I won the, it wasn't even a battle, but I won the last name. So we're thankful.
We leave it at that. Mordecai Safri? Yes, please.
Rivka Safri? What if I just like go totally crazy and pick like a real christian name like mary or jesus

yes or christian christian softry sounds like a country singer

105.1 uh we're we're here for the country station we got a new track from christian softry

it's because it sounds like the grand old Opry.

It's Opry sounds like an opera house.

I kind of love it.

It kind of is on track for you guys.

It also sounds like a delicious like rub.

Like I'll take some of the Sofri's mesquite, you know,

like a good barbecue rub line.

I'm in.

I'm in.

I'm in. And what about you? You could have done Po'Brien.
I know. My son, my wife's last name is O'Brien.
Or Obrek. Obrek.
Opec. Just fun.
I like Obrek. Yeah.
I mean, look, I was able to weasel out some Jewish names out of my wife, but I certainly could have had like a, you know, a Patrick. Who knows? That would be a Patrick.
That's always the interesting one. Do you know any Patricks? That's like a, like, does Paige have any Patricks in her family? Oh, yeah.
She has a cousin. She does.
Good boy. Nice boy good boy patty nice boy yeah sweetheart good good good because yeah i don't know one jew named patrick that's like one

of the names that is just like zero have ever been named patrick there was i think that there

are more jews named christian than patrick yeah it well i know some jews named anthony

that's always interesting that makes more sense to me than patrick patrick is just i don't know

Thank you. Patrick.
Yeah. Well, I know some Jews named Anthony.
That's always interesting. That makes more sense to me than Patrick.
Patrick is just, I don't know. Patrick is Christian to the bone.
Beautiful name though. Cause I'm Christian to the bone.
That's our first song at Soffrey's. Christian to the bone.
The grand old Soffreyfri. Do you have Woody Nuts? I do, and I teased it earlier.
Our Woody Nuts moment of the week is our gripes of people, places, and things, big or small, whatever's sticking in our craw currently. Ben, take it away.
Okay, so you're going to the doctor, right? Anybody that is expecting, anybody that has been along this journey knows, you go to the doctor and you get a sonogram right they lay on that nice what i envisioned to be mint jelly that i'd like to put on a nice lamb chop and they go in there with the ultrasound handle or whatever it is and they're going and they're looking at the baby and you see those beautiful pictures on the screen and then they clip one and they they print them, right? For whatever reason, they love to write, hi, mom, picture. Hi, dad, picture.
Baby toaster or whatever it is, okay? What are you nuts? I just want a clear picture. When you print them, I don't want your mashugan of crap on it.
I don't want hi, mom. I don't want hi, dad.
I don't want it's cold in here. It's warm in here.
Enough with the jokes. Give me a clean picture.
What are you, nuts? I can't give a sonogram, hi, dad, to my parents. They're going to be like, where's the regular one? Why did you stick me with this Meshugna one where somebody wrote on it? Word up.
Love it. Love it.
I guess I'll just, I'll do one in the vein of having kids too. And I teased mine before too.
If the couple is not going to find out the gender, don't ask if they want a circumcision. Read the file before.
What are you nuts? Do a little research. That's terrible.
It's kind of classic. You know, it is what it is.
It's fun though, man, because I got to announce it to the room. You got to announce to the room.
It's a boy. Oh, yeah, that's nice.
It's fun. That's nice.
Well, you have to understand too that my wife had a C-section, right? So I'm sitting outside of the room for like 30 minutes as they're getting her ready. And then they're like, we'll bring you in.
And they bring me into the room and i'm like i'm an actor what's my role here like give me direction so i i took the job as hype man and i go like we're having a baby guys it's all these people in full scrubs being like can you be quiet like okay I'll be just trying just trying to do my part

I know I was like

peach push can you be quiet? Like, okay. I'll be just trying to, just trying to do my part.
I know. I was like, each push.
They're like, it's a C section. Don't push.
That's so hard. Like what even words of encouragement? You don't give words.
It's just drugs, right? Like you just hope that the drugs are enough. Oh, oof.
They are God. They are.
are. They are.
Benjamin, we are so happy. Allow me to speak for the morons and even the toasters when we say, a mazal tov.
God willing, one day at a time. Don't worry.
Don't be in fear. Baruch Hashem.
Thank you, God. So happy for you and Claudia.
May it be a strong, whatever they are, may they be strong. And that's all I got.
