Step back into the phrases that defined childhood as Robin and Chris break down the classic dad sayings everyone has heard at least once. From “money doesn’t grow on trees” to “this isn’t a hotel,” they explore where these expressions came from, what they actually meant, and why they were so effective at shutting down any argument instantly. Along the way, they mix humor with a little history, showing how these sayings were shaped by different generations and why they stuck around.

What starts as a lighthearted look at familiar one-liners turns into something more meaningful as they unpack the lessons behind them. Whether it is about money, manners, or learning to think for yourself, these phrases carry more weight than they seemed to at the time. With Father’s Day as the backdrop, this episode reflects on the small things that dads pass down without even realizing it and why those words tend to come full circle later in life.
