169 - Upright, hydrated and breathing with special guest MY MOM

My mom has been on a bunch of streams and I have a bunch of conversations with her on my patreon page. People ask me all the time to have her back so I'm super excited we could sit down and chat today.
We talk: College, raising kids, Home schooling, Female Genital mutilation, Children's books, values, human nature, and most importantly, she is a great example of someone in their mid 70's with a fully functioning and valued brain, a positive worldview, and a deep authentic laugh. Our culture is starting to not value older people and intern older people are aging and atrophying at an alarming weight due to the fact people treat them as useless. Wisdom, skills, advice, and child care all comes from our elders and it's mind glowingly self destructive to discard them because they aren't a new weird technology.
PayPal.me/feedthebear if you enjoy the stream and can afford a tip
patreon.com/wdtl
and/or just hit like and share the stream. The algorithms are against anyone that isn't a leftist, so that extra push to get out streams and comedy that you enjoy does a world of difference.
If it wasn't for my dad's weiner and my mom's "ok," there would be no Owen Benjamin. Piano brought me to stand up comedy. I've had two Comedy Central specials. I'm tall but suck at basketball, I'm smart but can't spell, I'm nice but kind of a dick.

I've been in some movies: House Bunny, Staten Island Summer w/ SNL cast, Bucky Larson w/ Nick Swardson, Jack and Jill w/ Adam Sandler.

Also some TV shows: Sullivan and Son - produced by Vince Vaughn, Leno, Fallon, and Bar Rescue.

You may have seen/heard me in podcasts: Joe Rogan, Adam Corolla, Steven Crowder, and the Impractical Jokers podcast.
