The Monday After Father's Day: What You Do When Nobody's Watching the Calendar

The holiday is the trailer. The Tuesday is the movie.

In  The Jason Hewlett Show, Jason breaks down the part of fatherhood that never gets a card, a brunch, or a social media post: the ordinary days after the celebration ends.

Father’s Day is easy. The Monday after is the test.

Because kids don’t remember the performance as much as they remember the pattern. They remember whether the phone went face-down at dinner. They remember whether the promise was kept on a random Tuesday in February. They remember whether the man on the card matched the man on the calendar.
This episode is about the gap between public fatherhood and private consistency — and why the real inheritance is built on the 353 days no one circles in red.

The card expires. The promise doesn’t.

The card is curling at the corner. Yeah, it's sitting on your kitchen counter where it's been since Sunday. The brunch dishes are gone. The tie is back on the hanger. The picture you posted got the likes it was going to get, and the card is now curling. It's Monday. This is the day Hallmark didn't design a card for. Yeah, this is the day no caterer prepared a brunch for. This is the day your kid doesn't draw you a picture for. This is the day your wife doesn't squeeze your hand at a restaurant and tell the waiter, he's such a great dad. This is the real Father's Day because here's what Sunday couldn't tell you. Sunday's the trailer, Sunday's the highlight reel, Sunday's the marketing, Monday is the product. The product is the man your family actually has. On the Tuesdays, no one is filming, in the small hours no one is counting on the calendar pages that don't have a holiday printed on them. That's the show today. And then the promise that has no holiday. The man in your family knows when nobody's watching the calendar. Let's get into it. Welcome to the Jason Hewlett Show. Lots of F-words around here. Faith, freedom, family, fitness, fun. We're gonna talk about all kinds of F-words that hopefully are great for you. First is freedom of speech. Here's a little coming up on the show: the Monday After Father's Day, why the card expires, and the man underneath either does or doesn't, but what to do about it on Tuesday in October when no one's watching. Full story. We'll talk about the Monday after Father's Day. What you do when nobody's watching the calendar? The holidays, the trailer, Tuesdays, the movie, the hinge moment when a man stops performing fatherhood and starts being it. And from the newsfeed, the card expires, the behavior doesn't. Three pieces of brand new research that explain why men, most men are running a 30-day trial of themselves every month, and most kids are quietly churning. In our Faith and Hope segment, The Quiet Tuesday, Jesus didn't build the kingdom at the wedding feast, he built it on the road. That verse that changes how every man should look at his normal Tuesdays. And then on Father Time, um, I'll be talking about uh some story that I think will bring you some laughs, hopefully, because this is how I experienced winning a major award and then the reality of that once I got home. Funny factory, we'll talk about the Father's Day card audit. What if Hallmark cards had a verification clause and the world's best dad mug was legally binding? Fitness minute, we'll be talking about the random Tuesday workout. Yeah, nobody films the Tuesday workout, and that's why it works. Because, hey, you know what? We're brought to you by Cardio Miracle. I hope that every single Tuesday you are hitting the workouts, and we're gonna talk about how important it is to consistently do that and supplement with Cardio Miracle. It's going to change the way that you succeed in the gym and throughout your life. Stay with me. This one's not for the holiday, this one's for the week after. The funny one in the room is not being mysterious. Funny one is demonstrating skill. Laugh is not weakness backing down, it is courage backing down. Stop snarling the laugh. Let the funny one out. Welcome to freedom of speech. Yeah, this is an exciting time because here we are almost to the 250-year celebration of America. I'm so excited for it. It's gonna be great. Lots of celebrations, many things that are happening around the world. And I hope that as you think about freedom of speech, it's a very important thing that I can just sit here and do this show and just talk naturally to you and with you, and hopefully we can engage. And I appreciate those that are in the comments and making the chat work. And thank you for re-listening if you're listening to the podcast afterwards. But there's a moment in every father's year that nobody puts on the calendar. It happens around 6 47 a.m. on the Monday after Father's Day. You know, the house is quiet, the card is still on the counter. Ty is back on the hangar. You're in the kitchen, the coffee's brewing, somewhere upstairs. A kid is gonna come down in 20 minutes and ask you something. And in that moment before the day starts, you know. You know whether the card was the truth or the marketing. Because here's what nobody told you. Father's Day is the easy day. Yeah, anyone can be the world's best dad for one branded Sunday in June. You show up to brunch, you hug the kid, you let the wife take the picture, that's the whole test. The promise is not the holiday, the promise is the 51 weeks where nobody's keeping score. There's a piece of digital experience research I keep coming back to. It's about something called the promise to experience gap. The promise to experience gap, brands make a promise in their marketing, then the user actually shows up and uses the product. And if the product doesn't match the promise, the user churns quietly, without a fight, they just stop coming back. It's not a software problem, that's fatherhood, right? And so when I think about a brand making a promise, I think about I'm excited for them to give me what I expect from them, what they claim that they can deliver. And have you ever been to that restaurant where you're like, oh man, it was nowhere near as good as what I expected? Yeah, there's one of my, I don't know who made this line, but it's one of my favorites of all time. Uh families eating at Denny's. And uh, you know, after the they they were all ordering off the menu, and the kid was looking at the menu, like, wow, that looks really good. And then they got their food, and it was just, you know, whatever. And when they were done, the kid walked up to the hostess and said, Excuse me, my compliments to the photographer. Meaning the photographs looked way better than the food actually was. So that's I don't know who said that line. I love that line, I remember it forever. But you know what? That's fatherhood. The card is the marketing, the brunch is the marketing, the post is the marketing. Every kid in America is running a 30-day trial of his dad every month on repeat for 18 years. Most dads are losing that trial somewhere between the second Tuesday and the third Thursday. And because the man on the card and the man on the calendar are not the same man, here's the brutal version. Your kids don't remember the card. Your kids remember the Tuesday. Whether you put the phone down at dinner, whether you came to the game, whether you said the words, whether you kept a small promise, the card is a trailer. Tuesday is the movie. The movie runs for the rest of their lives. So this is the show for the Monday. For the man at 6 47 a.m. with a curling card on the counter, the kid coming down the stairs in 20 minutes. The card expires, the promise doesn't. So let's get to work on that. I'm thinking about my own children, and if they were to listen to this, I I mean I don't know if they ever would, but if they did, how would they feel? What would they think about me saying this? Because I know I have not done this as well as I would like. I'm working on it, and that's why I talk about it. I think it's important to say it so that I can make a new promise to myself to be better. So here's some questions. Consider this. If your kid wrote next year's Father's Day card based on the Tuesdays, not the Father's Day brunch, what would it say? And how about this one? What's one promise you made on Father's Day weekend with or without saying it out loud that has already started to slip? And then how about this one? What's the smallest Tuesday promise you could keep this week that nobody would know if you broke? It may be something you just said casually to your child. And I mean, I'll tell you one that makes me sad to think about. I told my sons about a year ago, I said, hey, we're gonna change the basement room into a studio. And let's go get some guitars. And so we got some guitars. I mean, this was in uh October, here we are in June. Uh, I was like, let's make it into a studio. Uh, we put all these this time and effort into getting everything and and getting ready and excited, and then I just went down there this afternoon and I'm like, oh man, we haven't done anything in here yet. So I I don't know what happened. The time got away from me. I forgot. It was a promise I made, and I didn't keep it. I feel guilty every time I go in that room because that's uh that's something you don't want your kid to be like, yeah, you told us he's gonna do a studio and never did. I've been so busy doing other things, and that's the excuse. And that's what's important about today is that that's some of the stuff they'll remember. So that's a bummer. So it's okay though, like I can fix it by fixing it today. That's what this is about. So, how about this question? If your phone could narrate your Monday through Saturday, would your wife recognize the man on the card? Last question what's the gap between the dad the card describes and the dad the calendar describes? And which of the two is your kid actually inheriting? I want to be the kind of dad that the kids actually write about in the card. That's cool. I guess we'll see. I'm working on it. I hope you are too. I know you're trying. This isn't about berating anybody today. This is about thinking how we can be better and make some new promises that we can keep. That's all. And I hope that today you're inspired. The full story. Right after this. Let's go into the full story. The Monday after Father's Day, what you do, and nobody's watching the calendar. So I want you to picture two calendars on the wall. The one on the left is the highlight calendar, holidays circled in red, Father's Day, birthdays, graduation, Christmas, maybe 12 circled days a year. The one on the right is the other 353 days, the Tuesdays in February, the Wednesdays in October, the random Thursdays that don't mean anything to anyone except to a kid silently keeping score. Most men live their entire fatherhood as if the calendar on the left is the only one that matters. They burn themselves down for the 12 circled days. They fly home for the birthday. They rearrange everything for the graduation. Then on Tuesday, the phone comes out. The Tuesday gets the leftover dad, the half-listening dad. The dad who's in the room and in the inbox at the same time. The dad who can't look up from his computer, the dad who's always, uh-huh. Kids notice. Kids don't have words for it yet. Your kid is seven or eleven or fifteen, he's just absorbing this, logging the data. Oh my gosh. Storing the answer to the question he won't consciously ask until he's 35 and standing in his own kitchen wondering why he can't fully relax in his own house. The answer was the Tuesdays. And the hinge moment of fatherhood, the one that separates men who lead at home from men who just live there, is when a man realizes the calendar on the right is the only one that actually matters. Father's Day is the easy day. The Monday is the test. I know a man, and you know him too, whose father's days were spectacular. Cards, cookouts, photos, and whose Tuesdays were ghosts. Closed doors, screen glow. Ask your mother. That man's kids don't remember the father's days. They remember the Tuesdays. They're 40 now and they still remember, and I know another man whose father's days were quiet. A walk, a handwritten note, a small breakfast. Whose Tuesdays were gold. Tell me about your day was his favorite phrase. Phone face down on the counter. Same man. Same chair, same question. How was it today? For eighteen years straight. That man's kids don't remember the Father's Day either. They remember the Tuesdays. That's the whole thing. The Tuesdays are the inheritance. The Tuesdays are the promise. The gap between the man on the card and the man on the calendar is the gap your kid will spend a lifetime trying to close. The Monday after Father's Day is the first Tuesday of the rest of your fatherhood. Pick one promise, Tuesday sized. Kind nobody would know if you broke. No card, no social. Costs you nothing visible, but if you don't keep it, it costs you something invisible, you'll count in 20 years. So pick it. Keep it Wednesday, keep it Thursday, keep it Monday, next Monday, the Monday after that. That's the promise. The card expires, the promise doesn't. I hope you believe that, because I believe it. Coming up next, we're gonna jump to the news feed right after this. From the newsfeed, let's talk about story one. Hitner and the dad gaps. Hitner, that's the word I said, Hitner. H-I-T-T-N-E-R. For those that are hearing impaired at this point, and the gaps. Atlantic Avenue magazine ran a Father's Day piece this month featuring Jeff Hitner, founder of Ambition Ambitious Dads, who laid out six gaps that quietly run a man's fatherhood into the ground. The one that gut punched me was the legacy gap. His words are this We'll be less reactive, more intentional, and more present. Then life throws us a curveball. Too many dads put off the big picture thinking until it becomes someday. Someday keeps moving. That is a great line. Someday keeps moving. That's the entire Monday after Father's Day problem in five words. The day you swore you'd be different, the day you wrote into the card, the day you committed it to at brunch, and that day is always tomorrow until the kid has grown. Story two, the promise to experience gap. There's a piece of digital experience research from the good I've been carrying around all week. It's about how and why users churn from products. They call it the promise to experience gap. They're lying, the product itself becomes a source of broken promises. Oh man, that happens so much. Whether it's an experience online, whether it's meeting somebody in person for the first time, is going to that restaurant you're excited to try and it's no good, or whether it's the service you get on the airplane as they tell you it's going to be stellar and they care about you. Man, the promise to experience gap. Woo-hoo, that's fatherhood. The marketing, Father's Day, the card, the post, the brunch, make a promise. And the kid has to use the product. The product is you Monday through Saturday. And if the experience doesn't match the promise, the kid quietly churns. They usually don't leave because they don't have anywhere to go. They just talk less. And then they share less. And eventually they don't they call less or never. And you can lose a kid the same way a SAS company loses a user by a thousand small Tuesdays that didn't match the Sunday celebration of Father's Day. So story three: what they carry after the cookout, counselor Becky Lennox wrote something last month I want every man to sit with. Long after the gifts are gone, cookouts are over, custody schedules change, and the social media posts disappear. Your child will still carry the emotional experience of being raised by you. Becky Lennox. The gifts disappear, the posts disappear. Cards curl up and go in the recycling. What doesn't disappear is the emotional experience of being raised by you. That is the deliverable. I want to tell you about that for just a minute. I found this on my desk before the show. I thought I should share it. This this is a card from my son. You can see it says daddy on there. And this is what he wrote. He handwrote this and he put some pictures of us when he was little. Picture of us doing some fun things. And I guess that's at the Alamo. Is there a basement in the Alamo? Yeah, so we had fun, this kid. This was not a Father's Day card though. This is a card from him on August 21st, 2025. That's probably the hardest day of my life at this point. I wanna show you why. It's because on that day, let's see if I can find it here. On that day, we said goodbye to my son because he went on his mission. So let me see if I can find the photo of that. Yeah, he he We said goodbye. It was pretty rough. We said, we love you, buddy. And he's in Argentina now for the last well, ten months. We miss him a lot. Oh my gosh. And to see this card and to read what he wrote, I I want to be that kind of dad that he wrote about in there. And uh now he's serving a mission, he's helping people to come into Christ, and he's uh he's making a huge difference. I'm so proud of him, and he's learning Spanish so well, he's doing a great job, he's helping people that are needing somebody like him, and and he's the best at it that I've ever seen. And so it was amazing to read this right before the talking about this today because the card does start to curl. And grateful for my son giving me this gift that I can look back at as much as possible. Um story four. The other three. One in four American kids live in a home without a father. The number that deserves to live in your chest is the other three. Three out of four kids do have a father in the house. And the question is not whether you're there. The question is which Tuesday version of you are they getting? And being in the house and being in the room are two different things, and your kid knows it and knows the difference at age four. That's from the Christian Post. So someday keeps moving. I love that line. I want to give credit again to who it was. It was Jeff Hitner. Someday keeps moving. The product becomes a source of broken promises. The cookout disappears, the experience doesn't. Three out of four kids are still home, still keeping a score on the Tuesdays. The card expires, the behavior doesn't. And hopefully what they wrote in that card is exactly who you are on a Tuesday. Let's jump in to faith and hope right after this. He went to the wedding, he totally showed up, even did a miracle there, if you remember. He turned the water into wine, saving the host some embarrassment that would have been tragic and culturally horrific. In John 2, that's well, we love that story. We put it in the slide deck, that's where it is. And but that's not where he, Jesus, built the kingdom. Where did he build it? He built it on the road. He built it in the boat, he built it in the garden at night when his friends could not stay awake. He built it at the well at noon when nobody was watching. He built it on a thousand quiet Tuesdays where there's no crowd, no holiday, no banner, just him, just the work, just the next conversation, just saying follow me, and then seeing if people did. There's a verse in Luke 16, verse 10, that I keep going back to. Whoever is faithful in very little is also faithful in much. Faithful in very little. We want the very much days, don't we? The Father's Day, the graduation, the wedding feast, but those are the days we feel like we're being a father. We can see ourselves in the Those days we can post about those days, but the verse doesn't say whoever is faithful in much is also faithful in much. It says, Whoever is faithful in very little. The Tuesdays, the very little. The bedtime story when nobody's watching, the apology when you could have let it slide, the phone face down at dinner. The tell me about your day, and I mean it. I really want to hear it. Small kept promise that has no audience. And the verse says, If you can be faithful there, you are being faithful everywhere. So the Tuesday and the Father's Day are the same act in God's economy performed at different volumes. Most of us are trying to be faithful only at high volume. God's asking us to be faithful low volume. Low volumes where the kingdom is. And I heard a great talk recently by Matt McQueen in our congregation that was so great. He's one of our great leaders of what we call our stake in our church. And he spoke about being an ordinary man, or being a mean man, even mean meaning the average, just like Isaiah had written. And when you think about being an average man or a an ordinary man or the mean man, the average, the mid the middle, that's what God wants. Just show up. Just do what you say you're gonna do. Keep a promise. The low volume. That's where your kid is. That's where God wants you. I mean, it's great to have high energy, it's great to be the guy who saves the day, but what about the guy who shows up every day? So for the men this week who are exhausted from the holiday, who feel a little fraudulent because the card was generous and you know what Tuesday actually looks like. Well then hear this. You don't have to make Tuesday a holiday. You have to make Tuesday faithful. The first is performance, the second is promise. Be faithful in very little. That's all you need to do. Just be there, listen, show up, do your best. Jesus makes up the rest. He loves you. I hope you know that. That's the whole job of fatherhood. Be at low volume. Let's jump into father time right after this. Well, as you can see, I've got a new camera angle here. This is my iPhone that I'm on, and uh in the past it was sitting over there recording me when I'd be at the piano. But we're gonna do this one from here. Father Time, I I love talking about this because I actually made some specials about this dry bar comedy. If you want to look it up, go to dry bar comedy, Jason Hewlett, Father Time. I hope you'll enjoy it because of me just being silly, talking about my children, talking about being a dad, talking about growing old. And I I hope that as we talk about something that I I kind of the Tuesday I didn't cancel, that uh you realize how important it is to follow through on what your kids are expecting. I I know that uh a couple of weeks ago I talked about this in another episode, but let me just talk about this guy. If you can see on the screen, there is Romney. Romney's headed out on his mission in now two months to Argentina or to uh Redford's in Argentina. Romney's going to Guatemala. That's how busy life is around here. And this is us at the gym. Now, this just is a normal Tuesday. This is the Tuesday I didn't cancel. No, I was busy that day. I remember that's why I took a photo. I said, son, look at your humongous buff arms compared to mine. And mine look okay, but his are awesome. And it was just like, here's this 18-year-old kid who looks spectacular, who's worked so hard by putting in the work every single day at the gym. And uh, I remember I said, Hey, we're gonna go work out, and I told him that earlier in the day, and then just one thing piled up after another. This was almost at midnight, that's why I took the photo. And then there was this one. I've talked about this in other broadcasts, but Romney and I made it to the summit of a mountain this last year uh before the snow came. And the summit's a major accomplishment. I'm really proud of him for hitting that. This wasn't on a busy Saturday or anything. This was a normal weekday. And I just said, hey buddy, we need to go climb this mountain. And he'd always wanted to, and so I canceled my I canceled my appointments that day, and I decided we're gonna go hit a mountaintop. The Tuesdays that you don't cancel make all the difference. Those are the ones that they remember. Obviously, if they take a photo, that's nice. If they talk about it or post it, that's cool. I think it adds up more in the sense of just the fact that they know that you went and took them. And you know, it's interesting to be a dad that uh accomplishes neat things in front of people and then goes back to the life that I have. And and it's interesting to uh to think about 2016. That was a decade ago. At this time of year, I was in Phoenix, Arizona with my wife and family, and I was inducted in the Speaker Hall of Fame. The National Speakers Association chooses five people per year to consider to put in. Sometimes they only put three, but this year they put five, and I was one of them. I was one of the youngest ever received it at the age of 38. And I'll never forget going, getting standing ovations, people cheering me on. I got a statue that's beautiful, it's actually up there in my office, and gave a great speech, standing ovation, etc. Hugs, kisses, photos, celebrity status. That's what it felt like. It was amazing. My peers know how to celebrate, the National Speakers Association. Very cool. And then I went back to my room, and the kids were all there, and they were just busy. And and and what's fun about them at that age is they were a little bit crazy. But I remember like I was thinking, man, I have so much that I have to that I have to do when I come back home. It's like whether it's wiping off the boogers and the changing the diapers when they're little babies and their binkies are you know covered in hair, and you're like, oh man, how did this happen? Or trying to put them to bed and they're just putting toothpaste all over the mirror, just you know, and you're just like you know, I mean, kids are just funny. And as they've gotten older, and I've learned that as cool as it is to get recognized in front of people and on stage, it's way better to have those hugs and those kisses when you come back in the door after an experience with a bunch of strangers, to have your family love you. That's one of the great experiences of life, one of the great blessings. And so that's Father Time today. I just thought I'd share a little bit about the fact that there are some days that you're gonna try to figure out how to cancel, but I hope that you won't. And I hope you'll follow through. Hope also that when you get the glory of work and your stage, your performance, that remember that when you come back home, that's the place where the best applause happens, even if there's no clapping at all, it's just a bunch of kisses covered in snot from your babies. It's a beautiful thing. Let's jump into the funny factory right after this. All right, the funny factory. We're gonna call it the Father's Day card audit. There's a category of legally binding documents nobody told you about when you became a father. They're accumulating in a drawer in your house right now. Some are construction paper, some are mugs, some are framed. Every single one of them is a contract. The auditor is small, lives in your house, has a very long memory. Five of them. Let me show you a picture. Alright. Picture of my family. When they were little. Like that's that's a good chunk of time ago. Versus the current picture. There it is. They're older now, right? So am I. I look like their grandpa and their mom looks beautiful still. What happened to me? Here we are when they were little. Five five auditors living in your house. Yeah. The world's best dad mug. This is the unilateral declaration of best in class status signed in finger paint, witnessed by a kindergarten teacher, notarized by a glaze kiln. Not a gift, a binding ranking. You are now contractually obligated to be the world's best dad for the operational life of that mug. And that mug has no expiration date. I hope you've gotten a mug like this, because the mug does not break. The mug will outlive your sedan. And every time you drink from it, the contract renews. Your only exit is to accidentally, quote unquote, drop it. And your kid will bring that up at your funeral. All right. How about this one? The handmade card with the stick figure portrait. You know it. It's like the card is sweet. The card's also a court admissible likeness. Stick figure version of you on that card is the version your kid's comparing the actual you to for the next 18 years. If the stick figure's smiling, you're now required to smile. And if the stick figure has hair, congratulations, that ship sailed in 2018. And you're required to address the discrepancy at a later date. How about the things I love about my dad list? It's usually written in pencil, usually six bullet points, usually contains at least one item that's alarmingly accurate. My dad is funny. My dad makes the best pancakes. My dad listens to me. Whoa. Read that one on a Tuesday and read it again. Now go check what you said to the kid this morning when they tried to tell you about their dream and you said, uh-huh, go get your backpack. The list is evidenced. List will be entered into the record. Number four, the Father's Day Post. The most legally fraught of all of them because it's public. It's captioned by your spouse, distributed to your entire professional network, declaring you a great dad. You did not write the caption. You did not approve the caption, but you're now operating under it. If you fall short, your wife's college roommate from 1998 will know and she'll tell people. The caption is the marketing, the Tuesday is the audit. Number five, we're talking about breakfast in bed. You know that breakfast. Cold scrambled eggs, burnt toast, orange juice with pulp, situation handled by an amateur. Delivered at 6 11 a.m. by a small person in pajamas who has been planning this for three days. You ate every bite. You said it was the best breakfast you've ever had. You posted no picture, nobody saw. That was a Tuesday grade act on a Sunday grade morning. That one counts. That one always counts. So audit your drawer, audit your shelves, audit your fridge. You sign more contracts in crown than you ever sign an ink. The auditor is still watching, and they're always living with you. I love being a dad. Father Time, that was fun. Let's jump into the fitness minute right after this. Alright, with the fitness minute, nobody films the Tuesday workout. Tuesday workouts not aesthetic. Tuesday workout's not a transformation. Tuesday workout's not the before and after. The Tuesday workout is 45 minutes in a half-lit garage at midnight or 5 a.m. In a sweatshirt's been well, that's probably seen some things. And with a playlist you've heard a thousand times doing the same lift you did on a Tuesday a week ago, Tuesday a month ago, Tuesday a year ago, and nobody's there. Nobody's watching, nobody's gonna clap when you finish. Your phone is on the counter face down on Do Not Disturb. The kids are asleep, the wife's asleep, the dog might be looking at you. That's it. That's the workout that changes your life. Because the body does not respond to the showy workouts. Body responds to the boring ones. Think about it. How many times have you had that killer workout and you're like, man, that felt great, and then you don't go back for a month. We've all been there. I hope you're not there because what's interesting is I've done that. The body responds to the boring ones, the body responds to the repeated ones. The body responds to the ones you did when you had every reason not to, and you did them anyway. And that's not just true of the body, that's true of marriage, true of parenting, true of faith, true of business. The Tuesday version is the version that compounds. And here's why this segment is in this show, 11 days after Father's Day on a show about the calendar, the promise to your kid and the promise to your body run on the same operating system. So they both die on Sunday only commitments. Both live on Tuesday consistency. The version of you, your family is going to know in five years is being built by what you do on Tuesday. At the table, at the gym, in the prayer closet, in the bedroom, in the car. Pick the smallest one, keep it on Tuesday. Like I showed you with this. My son Romney and I working out at the gym. That was just another day at the gym, but to me it was special because we hit the gym by midnight to make sure that we got it in for that day. He remembers those, I remember them. I love those days. Those are days we will talk about forever between each other. I want you to pick the smallest, simplest promise, and keep it on a Tuesday. That's one of the reasons why I like to talk about Cardium Miracle. And uh Cardiom Miracle is an incredible company. My father is the founder. I've been using this product for many years. It's helped me so much in my workouts and being consistent and showing up and being able to recover. If you take this before your workout and you take it after, you'll recover that much quicker. You'll have a better workout. You'll feel great about yourself. And you know, that's what Cardio Miracle is for me. It's like 11 months a year, every day on Tuesday and Sunday, and on the days I feel great and the days I feel like garbage. And there are days that I don't feel good. But having the world's best nitric oxide supplement and vitamin D3 supplement formulated by my dad, trusted by my body. The Tuesday version of the promise I made to my own health 20 years ago. And I continue to keep that promise. It's important. But the some supplement nobody is filming, it's the supplement that just compounds. I hope that you'll check it out in the show notes. If you want to grab it on the um QR code I'm showing here, you can just go to Cardiomiracle.com as well. Cardiomirac has made a huge impact on a lot of people. I've received a couple of phone calls from people that are astounding to hear about their results, whether it's the change in their blood pressure, the feeling of having more cognitive ability, because it actually goes into the microcapillaries of your brain, flushes out the inflammation and all the blockages, and it allows for that blood flow to get up there and make it so that you have better memory, better cognitive ability. It's a wonderful thing. There's lion's mane in this product. I mean, glutathione, all kinds of good stuff. And and when you drink it, it's uh the delivery of L-arginine and L-citrulline creates nitric oxide. It's a miracle gas molecule. I mean, it's coined by science as the miracle molecule. It's one of the most important gas molecules in our body. And if we don't have it, our blood vessels start to get a little bit uh tighter, and so it dilutes the uh it it it it dilutes the blood vessel and allows for the greater blood flow. It's a it's a spectacular product, and scientifically we have research and papers that you'd be blown away by if you just go to CardiMiracle.com forward slash studies. Amazing what's happened there. If you want to try it, try it for 60 days. You can send it back if you don't like it. If you don't see any benefits, we've not sometimes people say I didn't see any change in you know some of the things I bought it for, but then I found other benefits like I have more energy in the morning and there is no caffeine in it. That's what's so cool. It's all natural, it's great. And people just have extraordinary uh results from this product. I'm so proud of my dad for creating it, and it's fun to work in the company with my dad, my brother, and many people who make it happen. So I hope you'll check out Cardiom Miracle. I hope that you'll make sure that you show up for the workout tomorrow. And I hope that you also will remember that you have a promise to your family to do that. Be a fitness person. It's one of the F words of this whole show. Fitness is so essential. I hope that you'll take it serious. Let's bring it home. You ready? Let's go to the outro. Like we started, the card is going to curl up, it always does. The brunch is gonna get cleaned up. The picture is going to scroll off the feed, the tie is gonna go back on the hanger, the mug is gonna be washed. Kid is gonna go come down the stairs in 20 minutes and ask you something in that moment. Monday morning, 6 47 a.m. 11 days past Father's Day, or right after it, calendar wide open with no holiday on it. You are gonna find out who you are. Not the man on the card, not the man at the brunch, the man in the post, the man on the Tuesday. Promise has no holiday. The promise has no audience, the promise has no caption. Promise has only one auditor, and the auditor lives in your house, and the auditor is keeping score, and the auditor will remember the Tuesdays long after every card in the drawer is curled up and gone yellow. So be faithful in very little. Pick one Tuesday promise this week. Keep it, keep it on Wednesday, keep it on Thursday. Don't post about it, don't tell anyone about it. Just just keep it. As you make and keep greater promises, your life will be better. I thank you for joining me on this show. I hope that you've been inspired. If you miss something, like we didn't do music on this one. I'm curious if you miss me playing a song or not. I'm I'm trying to write a new song every show. So today we decide to do something a little different. But that's the show. That's the work, that's the whole job. I'm Jason Hewlett. Thank you for joining the Jason Hewlett Show today. And uh God bless you, your family, and the great promises that you are making and keeping to those that you love. Thanks for joining us.
