00:01 Hey, it's Friday. It's the wrap-up. It's that time of the week when you're here with Team Super Dad. No pre-roll, no little thing, but I have created this. So I'll see you on the other side. Where's the button? Come on. Do that on the other side. Welcome to Team Super Dad. Real dads creating their best lives ever. More time, more money, more fun. You are not alone. You're on Team Super Dad. Hey, Glenn. How American is so, so American. I've got to say. You know, we know our target demographic here.
00:48 That's because you think the Americans think that the British accent is sophisticated. That's the market we're going to do. There's a reasons. There's reasons to the madness. When I did the podcast, the podcast started about two years ago. And I needed to put it all together quickly, right? And the quickest way I could get the intro done was on Fiverr. And the guy who was like least awkward to deal with was actually a really cool guy. He turned it around quickly, but he's like, what style do you want? This is the style. They all sound quite similar. I love the professional thing. So you've got this really cool, like slick American intro. And then you're like,
01:33 where's the button? Where's the button? Where's my big red button? Hang on. We're bringing the buttons back in. No, anyway, listen, before we get deep into this, this is the wrap-up. Glenn and I, aka Glenn, aka the dating dad, and me, Johnny Jensen, creator and founder of the Team Superdad community and the Hero Academy program. We do this at the end of the week. We celebrate the end of our week. Just because that's what we used to do in the pub. And that's what we still like to do now, I think. By the way, when you said the Hero Academy, I genuinely thought you were going to say, and me, Johnny Jensen, the hero that you all deserve.
02:16 When I Tommy Cooper it on stage in 20 years time, that's what they say. Wasn't the one you wanted. Definitely wasn't the one hero you wanted, but you deserve this one. And that says more about you than it does about us. Look, you're pretty much on brand there, basically. Team Super Dad is all about revealing the hero, the hero in for us dads. We're shopping, we're cleaning, we're basically being modern dads. And too many are going around unhappy and struggling with their focus and their fitness and their finances, inner turmoil. And really then not being the best they can for their family, not having the best relationships, not having enough fun with their mates.
02:56 And so Team Super Dad, that was my story. That was my journey. And coming out the other side of what ends up being the marriage breakdown and my pretty much mental breakdown, I was like, hang on a minute. This wasn't the plan. And so Team Super Dad has been created as an answer to that, as an antidote to that for modern dads. Because blind me, if it's not Donald Trump doing us all a disservice, it's some doofus dad who's done one. And the reality is that right through the middle are millions of really awesome blokes doing a really awesome job. And that's what we're here to do is lift them all up and have a flipping great life. Living our best life ever, not the life we feel stuck in.
