## Resource

Why don’t our kids listen to our podcast? When we were kids, listening to adults talk felt important. Now? Our kids couldn’t care less. This week, the bros stretch, sweat, and emotionally relive PE — the best, the worst, and the stuff that probably stuck with us a little too long. From parachutes, dodgeball, floor hockey, and legendary PE teachers… to ropes we never climbed, miles we never ran fast enough, locker rooms, bullying, and the weird social hierarchy that only existed in gym class. We also try to answer an important question: Why would recess as an adult be amazing , but PE as an adult would absolutely suck ? Along the way we spiral (briefly) into football, nostalgia, confidence, embarrassment, and why being “good at one thing” in PE could make you feel like a hero for a day. Before we were dads… we were just trying not to get picked last.
