Cape May Escapades to Aussie Animals Should You Be Scared

Ever wondered how a simple trip could lead to a brush with Hollywood glamour? We kick off this episode by sharing our child-free adventure to Cape May, New Jersey, where a chance encounter with a Bob Dylan movie set starring Timothée Chalamet brought unexpected hilarity. Between deciding on the best spots to eat and drink, and navigating a minor clash with the film crew, we recount the joy of temporary freedom from parental duties. This light-hearted segment sets the stage for a more profound discussion on the logistics and emotional roller-coaster of family travel, including our upcoming adventures to Washington, D.C., and various conventions, and the novelty of potentially taking a train for the first time with our kids.

Switching gears, we dive into the relatable and often humorous struggles of solo parenting. Picture this: juggling kids' routines while your partner is out of town, wrestling with feelings of inadequacy, and debating the best way to surprise your children with a big holiday trip. Should you keep it a secret or manage their expectations in advance? We share our own experiences and differing perspectives on these parenting dilemmas, shaping an engaging dialogue on the varied dynamics within family planning and communication.

Finally, we shift to lighter, yet equally entertaining, terrains by exploring the bizarre and deadly creatures of Australia. From the fearsome saltwater crocodile to the deceptively cute blue-ringed octopus, we blend humor with a touch of fear as we discuss why an RV trip might just be the perfect way to resolve marital disagreements. We wrap up by reflecting on our vacation experiences, from spotting seals to revisiting iconic movie settings, and share our thoughts on gaming platforms and the new "Dune" movie. Stay tuned till the end for some fun shout-outs and an invitation to connect with us on social media under DadModePodcast!

turning off normal human male mode. Switching to dad mode. Welcome in to dad mode with your hosts bearded nova and morph so it's it's summer here, which is is great.

Speaker 2: 0:19

I know it's. You're the other side of the world, so like we're starting to get into winter.

Speaker 3: 0:23

Yeah, we're starting to get winter.

Speaker 2: 0:25

But you know, like everybody else does during the summer, I got some trips planned this year, which is a lot of fun. Less fun when you bring your kids because you know they're kids. But last week I went to Cape May, new Jersey, which is a little beach town, just sort hung out, just you know no kids, which was fantastic.

Speaker 3: 0:45

I actually said that to our wife I was.

Speaker 2: 0:48

I was telling, telling you that, like, um, my biggest decisions for that week was just where do I eat and how early do I start drinking. It was, it was lovely, it was really lovely. Um, you know, but one of the coolest things that happened down there, they happen to be filming a movie, yes, town, I was down there and, um, it was, uh, it's, they're filming the bob dylan movie that's coming out like next year, star timothy chalamet, l fanning, uh, edward norton, um, and they were, they were down there shooting it. So I got a couple videos, um, even though they yelled at me because, oh, you can't take videos, I'm like it's public man, sorry, did they? But yeah, so it was really cool.

Speaker 2: 1:29

So, like my first day down there, I'm watching like Timothee Chalamet running around on a motorcycle that's sitting on a truck, so he's not actually like in danger, but you know, it was really freaking cool, really cool, cool, really cool. What so? They? They did they yell at you, yeah, like, so one guy had like a regular, like a fancy camera, and they, like two guys came over like you need to, you can't have that here. I just had my phone out and they didn't notice at first. And then they this girl turns around. She's like, oh, you're lucky, I didn't see that. She's like, don't, let me see that again. I'm like, what are you gonna do? Like it's not illegal for me to stand here, you're in public, we're outside, you know, you're in the middle of the street. So, um, but yeah, after I got in a fight with the people on the movie set, no, um, no, it was, it was. It was really cool seeing all that. I was.

Speaker 3: 2:19

I saw it on uh twitter. I was actually wondering that myself. Wait, what that's cool.

Speaker 2: 2:25

I don't know if I posted the one from I took from the hotel I think that's the one you posted down walking around and I saw them too, but it was really cool. Oh really, I tried to actually get to be an extra on it, but, um, they you had to have like period accurate clothing, like the movie set in the 60s, and obviously you know I'm wearing like you know nike shorts and you know some graphic t-shirt, so that wasn't gonna work, fuck this is swearing, this is swearing across it.

Speaker 2: 2:55

Up the, up the 90s I think I had on a dad, my dad mode t-shirt, which I thought would have been cool to get a little you know a little t-shirt in there, but they would have blurred it out or cut me out of the movie anyway uh, obviously not fans of the show obviously not fans of the show.

Speaker 2: 3:09

I don't know why not, you know. Uh, we appreciate you people who are listening, who are fans of the show, exactly. But, yes, well, so that was a lot of fun and, um, I have a couple more trips. I'm going on this this year, yeah, I think. Once with the kids, I think, we're going to dc and then I got a couple of a horror convention and a comic convention later in the year because I'm a dork. So what dc?

Speaker 3: 3:34

before the kids? How do you, how do you like to travel with kids? I guess is my way to put it, because everyone has their own different opinion how I don't like to travel with them.

Speaker 2: 3:45

We've only ever taken car car rides. We've't like to travel with them. We've only ever taken car rides. We've been in a bus with them and we've been in a train. We've never flown with the kids.

Speaker 3: 3:52

Okay, Okay. So this is the first flight.

Speaker 2: 3:56

Yeah well, we'll probably take the train if we see, but they're dying to go on.

Speaker 3: 4:01

Oh, it's only a few hours drive, isn't it?

Speaker 3: 4:06

It's less than 10 hours like eight hour drive it's not that bad, yeah, okay wife and I thought about, oh yeah, wife and I thought about doing that probably go driving a few states, which obviously is like 12 states for you guys. Um, in my case it was two. And, yeah, we decided against it, obviously because we had a newborn and I was like, look, we're gonna have to stop several times to do it and then we probably have to pay for accommodation along the way and have a night somewhere. And then in the end I got out of having to go and I kept dakota at home and erin, who the girls flew instead. So instead it ended up being quite cheap.

Speaker 2: 4:45

Was this where you had to check in to make sure that you were not failing as a father? Yes, exactly that.

Speaker 3: 4:52

And for good reasons. I would too, if I had to. I would check on myself too, if I was someone else.

Speaker 2: 5:00

Whenever my wife is not going to be home on time and I've got to get the kids ready for school, or get the kids ready for school or, you know, get the bedtime ready. It's, it's a lot of like and it goes well. I get insulted, that she's surprised. You know it's like. You know I can do this. I know what to do. I may not always do it, but I know what to do. You know what I mean Get insulted Like I get it. I mean I know my track record too, and I wouldn't be impressed either, but I do know what to do.

Speaker 3: 5:31

Yeah, you do have a sense. You're not a complete idiot, is what you're trying to say.

Speaker 2: 5:35

Yeah, I can keep them alive most likely, and I think that should be good enough reassurance, most likely is the insurance. Yeah.

Speaker 3: 5:45

It could be worse. I guarantee I'm not going to kill him.

Speaker 2: 5:48

Well, I mean, guarantee is a little strong. Right, it's a little strong, but you know it's not my intent to have them die on my watch.

Speaker 3: 5:59

Have you spoke to the boys about going on this holiday? Do they know?

Speaker 2: 6:04

Yeah, they're excited. They want to go to DC, even though I think DC might be a little boring for them. I mean, I've never been to go around Washington DC but I'm curious to see everything. But I think it'll be good educational for them too. So we'll see.

Speaker 3: 6:22

I'll admit, yes, when I thought about coming out your way, that was, yep, that was definitely on our car. I definitely want to go to washington, just to. I was going to drive down and do that. Um, I find it funny. I was going to bring this. You're talking about this trip with kids and and and, uh, they didn't even know. You're taking the train but kids never flying. And he's planning to go stateside this year, actually soon, I believe. From memory, I want to say I think he'll be over there for the 4th of July. Yeah, he will be there for the 4th of July.

Speaker 3: 7:02

He's seeing another friend who's I don't even know where he's living, but he's taking his three children and him and his wife are actually arguing about whether to tell the children the kids actually don't know that they're going to go to your side of the world for like three months. Three months, oh no, maybe six, six weeks or something, six, it's a few weeks that they're like they're landing uh, I want to sell it landing in la, which would most likely be the case being given, you know, geography, um, but then renting a truck camper, I think and then and then driving like halfway across with kids. Yeah, no, no, yeah, but he you know that was the conversation he had with you know him and I were having I'm like hold on, hold on, so you're not going to tell the children that they're going. He's like, no, I want to, but my wife doesn't want to. What do you think you've been that smart? Just to like surprise the kids like a day or on the day or day before.

Speaker 3: 8:05

Hey, just so you know you all come to the airport. We're going to america, for you know, we're going to Europe for six weeks. How do you think your children would? I want to say one's 13. The other one I want to say is 14. I want to be 13 this year. The other one was probably 15 this year, and then the youngest is eight, I think Okay.

Speaker 2: 8:32

So I think if you have teenagers teenagers I would tell them, because they have all your friends and other plans that they're setting up, because you know they only tell you at the last freaking moment they should tell them. In my case, my oldest. He's not a fan of going up high, yep right, so like if I were to surprise him the day before the day off hey, we're going to go on a plane 30,000 feet in the sky. He would lose his shit. He would lose his shit.

Speaker 3: 9:00

I have a feeling one of his daughters has a bit of anxiety. I think she would blow her. That's why he wants to tell her. The wife thinks it's all night but he's like no, I think she needs to know because he needs time to plan, she.

Speaker 2: 9:15

but he's like no, I think she needs to know because she's got, he needs time to plan. She needs time to yeah. Yeah, because, like you know, your kids are making plans. They don't tell you. So if you just try to surprise them, I don't know that's going to work out for you, for your buddy.

Speaker 3: 9:24

Yeah yeah, like good luck, good luck. Yeah, I definitely couldn't. Um, I think I could do it, I think I think my solution would be just leave the kids at the grandparents and go.

Speaker 2: 9:35

That would be my preferred solution. Look, we love our kids, right. We just don't always want them with us. Exactly, it doesn't mean we don't love them, it's just you know, be honest people listening to this. Your kids are annoying. You know they are. You know they are annoying sometimes. Just accept that. You know they are. You know they are annoying sometimes. Just accept that. Be honest with yourself. But let me go back to the scariest part of your story. They're going to rent a camper and drive around with it.

Speaker 2: 10:03

Oh, so I threaten my wife with that.

Speaker 3: 10:07

You threaten your wife with that when I'm mad.

Speaker 2: 10:09

I'm like I'm going to make us take a vacation, we're going to drive in an RV for a cross country, like as a, as a threat, right, because there's nothing that she wants less than to be stuck in a, in an rv with three guys who are just constantly farting. You know, um, you know, sharing one bathroom that's like a porta potty on wheels. You know, uh, oh yeah, there's nothing she wants less than that. And yeah, I I've said before, kingly or not, just have fun, I will stay home my, they actually go camping a lot, though as a family.

Speaker 3: 10:45

Hey, they kind of tested this ground. Uh, a while ago they did a a similar trip up north, the opposite end of the state where I live. They were up there for a few weeks and going to Caravane. They survived. They like that shit. They go camping all the time. I, personally, I like it. I like four walls, roof, electricity, controlled climate. You know I'm a simple man to be. As such, I don't see the enjoyment in camping at all I've gone camping.

Speaker 2: 11:25

I don't mind it. I wouldn't go camping in Australia either, because I don't know what kind of monster would attack me in the middle of the night. That's fair. If you're saying the monsters aren't that bad, that just proves my point.

Speaker 3: 11:37

That's fair, that's fair.

Speaker 2: 11:41

I'm not going to disagree with you. You guys have some scary animals.

Speaker 3: 11:45

Actually I need to send you a photo. No, I'll look it up. Look up the assassin spider.

Speaker 2: 11:51

Oh God, you guys at home can play along.

Speaker 3: 11:53

Yeah, yeah, please, please.

Speaker 2: 11:55

Let's look up the assassin spider.

Speaker 3: 11:57

Yeah, yeah, it should be like that. How big is it? Wait, how big is it it's? You know it's not that big, but just have a look at the shape of it Frightening.

Speaker 2: 12:20

Yeah, it's got like a head that's on a giant neck that stands up above it, and then it's got this oh god, yeah, so.

Speaker 3: 12:24

So so the spider, jeez, I was looking at the top view at first and then I saw the side view, yeah, yeah. So this is. This is a new spider, australia. It's recently discovered. As far as I'm aware, it hasn't. Um, it's recently discovered in a park or something further up north. It's about the size, it's the best way to put it. It's very small, it is. It is very small. You, you, you know your fingernail, let's just say fingernail size, all right, uh, but this, oh yeah, they're very small, yeah, but, um, they actually attack and hunt other spiders. Oh, so you know that's a cool one. No, it's not.

Speaker 2: 12:58

But okay, but you know, it's only about a third of an inch, yeah, like eight millimeters.

Speaker 3: 13:05

So it's not that big. We're always fighting new stuff.

Speaker 2: 13:08

That's a small monster. For Australia it is.

Speaker 3: 13:12

It is. But yeah, you know, we, we're constantly finding new animals still in Australia.

Speaker 2: 13:18

They still think there's, there's plenty of by the way, I typed in scary animals in space in Google. You know what the first uh term was Australia.

Speaker 3: 13:27

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I could, I could see that. Um, we actually I think that was about last year we got a new Venera steak. Yeah, we're constantly finding new snakes.

Speaker 2: 13:43

I'm going to give you a list of the top 10 dangerous animals in Australia. You let me know whether this is accurate. Taipan snake.

Speaker 3: 13:51

Yeah, you probably won't run into one. I'm going to be honest. They're in the middle of Australia, oh no Hot water crocodile. Did I say Taipan as in Snake? No, yeah, they're bad yeah.

Speaker 2: 14:06

Saltwater, crocodiles, salties.

Speaker 3: 14:09

Yeah, you really don't want to fuck with them. They make your. Let me put it this way I would have no problems getting into a fight with an alligator in America. They look like soft boys would have no problems running like getting into a fight with an alligator in america, like they they look. They look like soft boys. I'm more afraid of a fucking dog than I am of an alligator. Really, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, they're babies. They're like nothing. Um, yeah, so, so what are crocodiles? You really? Yeah, once you go north enough, you just don't swim. Basically, oh really, yeah, yeah, because you know you're talking about something that could be 15 feet, 20 foot long in some cases, that are like an alligator, I guess, in that sense of how they swim, way bigger mouth, like they're just way bigger mouth. They would seriously fuck you up that sounds frightening yeah.

Speaker 3: 15:09

All right next one Blue-ringed octopus.

Speaker 3: 15:12

Yeah, yeah, yeah, they're bad, they're bad. They're little octopus. They look really cute and I love it when you see tourists come and they pick them up all the time, because when they get threatened they have these bright blue rings that like glow on their body, like they look really pretty. Yeah, you're fucked is the best way to put it. Oh, really, so, yeah, don't, that's them getting really pissed off. Don't pick up them. Yep, yep, stonefish. So don't, don't pick up them. Yep, yep, stone fish. So that's like the surprise game of I don't think don't go into water where there's like mangroves. You got mangroves over there. You know what mangroves are. They're like where the ocean meets, kind of like a swamp, but the ocean, like the everglades is the best way to put it Everglades is probably your closest thing.

Speaker 3: 16:03

They kind of hang around there. So, especially when the water is a little bit muddy, murky and stuff, you step on one of them and you fucking know about it in the water. So you kind of don't want to step on them. They're assholes, okay.

Speaker 2: 16:17

Red-back spider, which is aka the Australian black widow.

Speaker 3: 16:21

It's tiny, they look nice, they're a tiny little spider. You also get whitebacks, and sometimes with yellow as well. They're in different colors. They hide under things. You've got furniture outside and it's sat there for ages and you don't really move it. Don't put your hands underneath stuff in Australia, like furniture to lift upside, because that's where they like to hide.

Speaker 3: 16:48

So don't go in the water or lift anything in Australia, yeah, Do you guys have to check your boots and your shoes if you leave them outside?

Speaker 3: 17:02

No know, so that's a fit.

Speaker 3: 17:03

Like I, I leave boots in my garage, sometimes just some work boots, and that if I want to use, like I don't want to bring them in the house because I'd like mow the lawn or something, yeah, and I still do this day if it's, if the shoe's not in my room, basically like directly in the house, uh and and at this house I feel secure, I don't feel like anything's really getting into this house.

Speaker 3: 17:25

You got to do what is counted as a boot check, I guess, like so you kind of don't put your hand in, don't put your hand in, okay, this is okay. So what you got to do is you kind of you want to lift it away from you and kind of you're looking like right up where the toes are, type of thing, because snakes, spiders, you don't know what, but they do go up in your boots. So I like to have a kind of little look to see if I can see anything scaly up there, because you notice if you've got you don't notice if there's a snake in your boot, but then you kind of just like tip it away from you and just give it a few pats. Just try and take anything that's out. Give it a second. Make sure nothing's come out of your boot, then you're good to put your boot on. Oh.

Speaker 2: 18:10

Jesus, yeah, all right. Next one I got box jellyfish.

Speaker 3: 18:15

Oh yeah, there's jellyfish. They sting a bit. You can get. Okay, just just get your friends to pee on you. Pee on you. Urine's great for stings on jellyfish okay, uh.

Speaker 2: 18:25

Next is uh, we got a brown snake and a tiger snake, so there's people that'll argue.

Speaker 3: 18:30

The brown snake, especially eastern brown, which is a smaller one king brown's bigger. Uh, eastern brown, smaller Brown right up there very dangerous. They're around where I am. Yeah, I personally don't see them as a problem. You just kind of leave them alone. They leave you alone. They don't really want to fuck with you. If they're getting angry it's usually because you're in the way of their safety. There's no other safe platform. You've kind of like they're being defensive, but if you just leave it they're going to go. They're not going to hang around all day, whereas a tiger snake, those are assholes and will chase you. So I would prefer to run into an eastern brown than a tiger. Okay, tigers, even though they're not as long, they're fat and they look terrifying. But tigers are more predominantly down in Tasmania, which is the little island south of Australia.

Speaker 2: 19:30

But yeah, yeah, they're both bad, all right. So the last two things on here. One is a classic the great white shark.

Speaker 3: 19:36

Yeah, so so. So it's one of those weird things. Do you want to? There's more than just a great white shark. There's the bull sharks as well. Bull sharks are kind of like packs, and then you've got tiger sharks. Tiger sharks is like a step-down size of a great white. We've got them too. If you don't have great white in your water, then there's chances are you've probably got tiger sharks in the water, and then, if there's no tiger sharks, you've probably got tiger sharks in the water. And then, if there's no tiger sharks, there's really good chances there's bull shark. Look up. So I'm in Brisbane, right, okay, brisbane River bull sharks. Just have a look up there, that'll get you going. There's a lot smaller bull sharks, but bull sharks can go in fresh water.

Speaker 3: 20:19

Well that's not cool. So they're right, the whole way up the river. Yes, they're not that small, they can get small, but they're like more of a pack shark I guess. Um, okay, but yeah, they can be found. Like you know, I'm nowhere near there, I'm not near the ocean, probably closer than you, but, um, they're right up, like my end of the river, close to, like the dam, where the dam is the start of the river. You can still find those guys right up in freshwater territory there. Yeah, jeez, but yeah, great Whites, saltwaters, saltwater Crocs either or both will fuck you up.

Speaker 2: 20:57

I like how casually you say that. All right, my last one here on my top ten list, my impromptu top ten list Yep, the Sydney Funnel Web Spider.

Speaker 3: 21:06

It's like it's small, it's like a tarantula.

Speaker 2: 21:09

It's potentially deadly.

Speaker 3: 21:10

Yeah, potential, the tiny little redback's way worse.

Speaker 2: 21:15

Somebody said that in the comments ago. I agree with the list, but what about the redback spider?

Speaker 3: 21:18

The ago. I agree with the list, but what about the redback spider, the tarantula? It's more like a tarantula, I guess Okay, that's the best way to describe it. They're pretty much the same spider kind of looking, kind of similar size. Um, yeah, but oddly enough, even though it's big, like not really anything to be scared about, I wouldn't be caring about that you know, when I was on vacation, uh, I saw a seagull and a seal in the water.

Speaker 2: 21:46

That's it. That's all that we had. Oh, really, that's all we had. We didn't have monsters that want to kill you but oh, this is not going to be sponsored by the islam.

Speaker 3: 21:56

Tourism isn't cape made like where jaws was set. You know what I have a feeling it was. I know it's on that side of the coast. Um, where was jaws location?

Speaker 2: 22:08

jaws was set. Martha's vineyard, massachusetts. Okay, up Same coast Same coast. Yeah.

Speaker 3: 22:17

Oh yeah, yeah, I wasn't too far off then, I guess.

Speaker 2: 22:21

Yeah, I am glad that Chalamet didn't bring any of the sandworms from Dune with him to Cape May.

Speaker 3: 22:28

That would have been horrible. I started watching that movie actually finally, like the new ones I've watched, I've watched you like it like part one. I haven't watched part two yet. Um, yeah, I love the original I didn't.

Speaker 2: 22:38

So I never really watched the original, but um the I obviously I watched, obviously, but I watched both part one and part two and and they're so well done I love the game, you know I didn't think it'd be better. It was actually more well done than part one.

Speaker 3: 22:52

Yeah, I love the 1992 classic video game of June.

Speaker 2: 22:58

Oh, I never played that.

Speaker 3: 22:59

Classic RTS. Really, it's good. I enjoyed it. Then you had June 2 and June 2000. It's fine here of its category While you're on your trip though I'm going back to your trip.

Speaker 2: 23:18

Did you see, Damn, Daniel, I did not. And um, I actually I messaged him to like get his shirt size Cause I was going to order a shirt and bring it down with me, and um, but I never got to connect with him and that's that's, that's my fault. So, Dan, if you're when you're when you listen, I am sorry, it's my fault.

Speaker 3: 23:28

You wait till he's back here. He's going to go off his rocker.

Speaker 2: 23:32

No, I don't think we can have him back now because he's going to yell at me. I don't want to get yelled at.

Speaker 3: 23:37

I think I messaged him. I'm like, hey, here's a way for us to chat, and he hasn't responded, so I'm holding that against him.

Speaker 2: 23:43

What is it? The WeChat. What's up? What's up.

Speaker 3: 23:47

What's up? Right, there we go.

Speaker 2: 23:49

Yeah, because I took his suggestion. I'm like yeah.

Speaker 3: 23:50

I'm going to use that. I'll give it to some people.

Speaker 2: 23:52

You know what else you can use. I don't know if anyone uses it, but if you have Snapchat, you can actually talk through Snapchat too.

Speaker 3: 23:59

You can talk through Discord on the phone too. Yeah, I use Discord, but that's what I thought. Apparently, everyone is using.

Speaker 2: 24:05

Discord.

Speaker 3: 24:07

That's what I assumed people were using. That's what I message everyone that I know in the content creation space.

Speaker 2: 24:12

I message in a discord often and I call people.

Speaker 3: 24:16

The mobile, the mobile apps.

Speaker 2: 24:17

I don't usually use it as a phone but, like you know, I could.

Speaker 3: 24:20

But that's, that's my mobile. You know I have discord on my mobile purely for the message sense. I don't use discord mobile to really check on rooms or anything, to really check on rooms or anything. It is mainly there for DMs. That's a great way to contact me Twitter. I actually prefer Discord DMs over any other DM in terms of social media space.

Speaker 2: 24:41
