Dumb Dialogue with Dad

Stuff About That One Airline That Had Issues in December 2022 | Season 3 | Episode 27

Happy New Year!  Yeah, we know it’s February, but we still wish yall the happiest of new year.  In this episode, we talk about our traveling adventures during the holidays.  Yes, we got wrapped up in the travel woes from that one airline that shall remain nameless (but yall know who we mean).  Let’s just say our travel experience included multiple flights cancelled, standing in lines, multiple rental cars, driving over around 1200 miles in a 2 day span, and Disney World.  Not to mention, this was a trip with Dad’s parents and brother, so we were incentivized to try and make the most of the trip.  We also discuss Aurie’s version of the Seven Dwarfs for some reason, both girls talk about their tired eyes that played tricks on them on the late-night drive from Palm Beach to Disney World, and at the 14:38 mark, the girls lament on how it feels like we had been recording longer. 
Shout out to United Airlines for getting 4 tired people to the happiest place on Earth in a clutch.  Also, shout out to Enterprise Car Rental.  We used yall more in the matter of a week than we ever had previously, but yall were there when we needed you.

(Some) Stuff About The Walking Dead | Season 3 | Episode 26

Spoiler Alert:  We go into some details about The Walking Dead, seasons 1-3 with some season 4 sprinkled in.       
Happy Holidays, yall!  In our last episode of 2022, Dad and Aurie discuss the critically acclaimed AMC Original Series The Walking Dead.  Yani sat this one out because, well…she’s never seen the show.  We learn that one character is not well received by Aurie…or dad, for that matter. 
We also pretend what it would be like if Beth Greene of the rural Georgia Greenes had a diary during the apocalypse.  It’s so hilarious to us that we do more of them at the very end of the episode.  Oh, and Aurie could have done without Beth singing so much in season 3.   
Dad, for some reason, felt compelled to break down the physics of how a horde of walkers made its way from Atlanta to the Georgian countryside.  Aurie disagrees.
And as much as the title says season 1-3, we managed to drop some season 4 in the mix because sometimes we have self-control issues. 
We also acknowledge the awesomeness that is Danai Gurira .  She’s such a great actress that we see her on screen as Michonne in The Walking Dead, then see her play Okoye in the MCU, and it's like watching 2 different people…the mark of a great actress.   
We hope that the holiday season brings you everything you wish for.  And while you’re on break, take a listen to more of our episodes at the3dpod.podbean.com.

Stuff About Charmed | Season 3 | Episode 25

Spoiler Alert:  We go into some details about both the Charmed series from the 90s and the reboot that started in 2018.     
Happy holidays, yall!  In our penultimate episode of 2022, Dad and Yani discuss the Charmed reboot from the folks at the CW.  Aurie did not finish the show, so she sat this one out.  Shout out to Sarah Jeffrey who played Maggie (we say Jefferies but that was just a quirky play on her last name), Melonie Diaz who played Melanie, Madeleine Mantock who played Macy, and Lucy Barrett who played Kaela in the reboot series.  Yall did an awesome job, and we loved the show.
You know who did not really love the show?  The cast of the OG Charmed series.  We talk about that, even though it sucks that they felt that way but…it is what it is.
Plus, we talk about how the mom in the reboot had more secrets than the Pretty Little Liars (another pretty good show).
And during post-production Dad had to bleep Yani…it wasn’t for cussing though.  Just something they probably don’t say on regular broadcast radio.  You can use context clues and your imagination to figure it out.  
A big thank you to all our listeners across the world from Texas to the UK to Spain and beyond.  We appreciate you all!
One last shout out to the Charming: A Charmed (Reboot) Podcast.  Dad is planning to take a listen.

Stuff About Strange Thor | Season 3 | Episode 24

Spoiler Alert:  There are discussions about several Marvel (MCU and non-MCU) movies and shows in this episode, including Thor:  Love and Thunder and Dr. Strange:  Multiverse of Madness   
Welcome to our Multiverse Mashup!  As indicated in the title, this episode is full of our thoughts on not one, but two recent MCU movies…Thor:  Love and Thunder and Dr. Strange:  Multiverse of Madness.  Full disclosure…we are all very tired in this episode.  Dad had a headache and the girls got all jacked up on cappuccinos right before we recorded.  Even with a headache, Dad manages to give a time travel lesson…we’re just not sure if he’s correct. 
Plus, we all somehow manage to throw in our thoughts on Agents of SHIELD being MCU canon because of the Darkhold.  We know that’s controversial but…eh, its our podcast. 
Overall, we liked both movies, but you’ll have to listen to see which one, at least in our minds, is better. 
Lastly, if this episode feels rushed, that’s because it is.  We have never mashed up two movie reviews into a single episode and wanted to make sure we got all the things in.  Plus, Dad wanted to finish watching Dexter:  New Blood and the girls had plans to play Lego Harry Potter.  Regardless, good times were had so tune in!

Stuff About Kenobi | Season 3 | Episode 23

Spoiler Alert:  There are discussions about the Disney+ Obi-Wan Kenobi series, as well as other Star Wars movies and video games.
Happy Halloween!  This was supposed to be our first No Dad Allowed episode, but plans changed.  Instead, Aurie and Dad decide to talk about the Obi-Wan Kenobi series.  Of course, we talk about the typical things but there were some specific shenanigans in this one. 
At one point, Dad flips Hayden Christensen’s name and calls him Christian Haydensen.  It was a mistake (sorry Hayden). 
Aurie pitches her idea for a new Star Wars series to the good folks over at Disney and LucasFilms. 
Retroactively in the future in the past becomes a measure of time when talking about Star Wars.  We think it makes sense somehow.
Dad calls Anakin/Darth Vader a Crispy Chicken Nugget because of his injuries at the end of Revenge of the Sith and says Anakin has had limbs missing since he was a teenager.  He ain’t wrong.
Dad and Aurie craft out the conversations that Obi-Wan is finally able to have with Qui-Gon’s Force Ghost and they’re not what you think.
Dad randomly asks Aurie if a bottle of water was hers because he was thirsty.  We could have edited it out but…eh.
There are some audio issues in this one.  Our bad…

Stuff About Moving | Season 3 | Episode 22

Spoiler Alert:  There is some discussion about Stranger Things 4…if you haven’t seen it, watch it before listening to this. 
We move…a lot.  Like, a lot a lot.  In fact, we just moved again into what we now can wholeheartedly say is our Forever Home.  But there is a story to tell on how we got here, so in this episode, Dad tells a looooong story that goes back to 2012…no, 2007.  Fortunately, it is pertinent exposition to the episode so please don’t get mad because he talks for a while.  Nonetheless, we move so much that we refer to previous houses as “old house, old old house, old old old house, and old old old old house.  There was even a 4-month stint in a great (but small) apartment (and a hotel for a week) between houses in 2018 due to building delays.
Plus, the girls talk about their adventures with food during this last move, but let it be known that they ate EVERY SINGLE DAY.
Shout out to M&M Home Solutions for being the dopest contractors and working with us on projects across 3 houses now and will do more work in this one.
And shoutout Highland Homes who built this beautiful new home.  Special thanks to Thea Harrison, Patti Conlin, Ryan Rodriguez, and Tanner Sorenson.  We appreciate them for getting us in this beautiful home.

Stuff About Hawaii | Season 3 | Episode 21

We are back for season 3!  It’s been a while, but we're ready to have more conversations about all sorts of stuff but in this episode, we talk about our early summer trip to Hawaii.  The thing is…we were not together the whole trip.  It’ll make sense when you hear us talking about it.  But two things we all can say about our first trip to the Aloha State is that Ube donuts are fire, and the Polynesian Cultural Center is awesome!  Plus, you’ll hear that we all now have a love for Island 98.5 and we all find ourselves listening to Hawaiian Reggae.
 
One note:  Our last dinner in Hawaii was at Yard House.  We couldn’t remember during the recording, but Dad remembered while editing.  Also...quick shout out to Brandon T. Eyring for hitting us up on LinkedIn.  We appreciate the follow!

Stuff About Sonic the Hedgehog 2 | Between Seasons Bonus Episode

Spoiler Alert!!
This is a bonus episode where we discuss Sonic the Hedgehog 2. This episode was recorded a few months ago so you may hear some slightly aged stuff.  We were also very tired while recording but shenanigans did occur.  For example, Dad knows surprisingly little about Sonic and the games so the girls give a crash course on the history of Sonic and his crew.  Yani liked the pacing of the movie but refuses to use the word "pacing".  Aurie refers to Dad as "a fossil". There's also a general discussion on upcoming movies and Yani was kicking the ottoman where the mic sits so...you may notice that throughout.  Lastly, a playful confrontation involving an empty water bottle and sofa pillows happens at the very end.  
We have some exciting stuff coming next season, which should start in September, including stuff about our summer trip to Hawaii, moving, reviews of Stranger Things, Dr. Strange Multiverse of Madness, and much more!  
Oh, we are now on Instagram and Facebook @dumbdialoguewithdad so check us out but set your expectations low because we ain't put much on either yet.
