Summary
Comedian Brian Bates joins the guys this week to celebrate his brand-new Nateland comedy special, Worried (watch here: https://youtu.be/-LfFqaVj3uQ ), before the conversation naturally turns into everything from becoming an older dad and the "resting worried face" of parenthood to teaching teenagers to drive, disastrous family photos, and why growing older changes the way you think about raising kids. They also swap stories about life on the road, whether 16 is too young to drive, the future of self-driving cars, the great Wendy's vs. McDonald's fries debate, butter storage, and plenty of the unexpected rabbit trails that make hanging out with dads so much fun.
