Daddy Brad: Welcome back to the lounge, we’re here at the tiniest bar in Texas, in beautiful down town Austin - I’m Daddy Brad.

Daddy Clay: And I’m Daddy Clay - this is the show where we interview our expert panel and ask parents off the street questions about parenting today. This week’s question is?

Daddy Brad: What’s the best gift to get a dude for a baby shower?

Man 1: I think a backpack would be really one priority I think.

Lady 1: Some coaching sessions on what to say and not say, when your wife is giving birth, or at home with the baby.

Man 2: Permission to not go!

Man 3: You can’t go wrong with Golf accessories

Man 4: Guys get gifts at baby showers?

Daddy Clay: You don’t think, that if somebody gave me golf stuff at a baby shower? that my wife would just beat me senseless?

Dr. Mom: A vacuum cleaner and a mop, and a duster!

Daddy Clay: Cut! Cut!

Daddy Brad: We don’t need that out there?

Daddy Clay: That’s not... No.

Daddy Brad: That’s not…yeah.

Daddy Clay: If you could get something at a baby shower, what would you want someone to give you?

Man 4: A breast pump. Once, you told me that the best thing was to avoid any formula because mom was so much cleaner, I didn’t have to be involved at all - remember that day in your auto?

Man 3: Daddy Clay, you know most of your buddies aren’t interested in pleasing your wife.

Daddy Clay: So do you want do that again? And maybe you could talk about money or golf stuff, or tools or something?

Man 5: A pellet gun

Man 6: Earplugs and alcohol

Daddy Clay: That’s your answer?

Man 6: Maybe not the things that go in but the…

Daddy Brad: Muffs!

Man 5: It could be the child’s first firearm, and in the meantime –dad, he can use it

Lady 3: I think the best gift for a guy would be an in-spent timer ball. That thing is so cool!

Lady 2: A vacuum cleaner, a mop a cookbook

Daddy Clay: She just keeps going!

Daddy Brad: This is dad’s side!

Lady 3: A case of beer, a couple of cases of beer - they need it for sure.

Daddy Brad: Are you married?

Lady 3: Yeah.

Lady 1: That would solve softer applications so they can help their wife keep up with all the schedules, and bottle feedings and medicine, and all that stuff that’s going to happen when they get home.

Lady 4: A hand knitted Whimsical cock sock? Cause I make those.

Lady 5: Well does a drill count as something? - I mean I don’t think it has much to do with babies but maybe a drill.

Daddy Clay: Sure

Daddy Brad: Yeah

Man 7: A lap dance?

Daddy Clay: Have you ever been to a strip club, where they like give you a lap dance gift certificate? I mean do they give those out? I've never seen one

Lady 5: You know, you’ve got to put together a crib - you’ll need some tools.

Daddy Brad: And you need a drill

Daddy Clay: Incase you hadn’t picked that out - that was a Whimsical hand knitted, cock sock!

Sound Guy: Is that the sock? Can I try it on?

Lady 4: I think it’s too small for you. I think that might be too small

Daddy Clay: Don, we’re shooting. You can’t come, like grab the cock sock in the middle of the shoot.
