Father's Day

It was quite cool seeing all the dress-ups and things like that.

Watch the Kiwis with the Keezies on Sunday? Father's Day?

Bit of a thrashing?

Bit of a thrashing.

So we have a young men's meeting and women's meetings.

Young women did actually, they wanted to do father's day this year.

So it was really cool.

They did a whole thing about how our heavenly father, they did a really, really amazing job this year.

Yeah.

Really cool.

Any other like special meetings or things that come around every so often that you handle differently? Mother's Day, Father's Day, obviously you talked about the Christmas thing.

Not so much.

gushing on birthdays mother's day

father's day gotcha I

that that's always been one from that I've seen.

And it's because there's been people in the past I've known and I've known their marriage or another relationship.

Like, hey, take that calendar filter off, all right? What's Jimmy's birthday? Yeah, you don't have an effing clue what Jimmy's birthday is.

Fair.

So let's not take false credit, but the couple's gushing over birthdays and Mother's Day and Father's Day.

What I like to do, and this is actually...

This would be the perfect Father's Day episode, but because our guest today has a paper about to be published on the subject, we felt the time is now to discuss this.

In the scientific literature, males of most insect species are described, and I quote, as flying sacks of sperm.

But UC Riverside entomologist Meghan Moore shows that male bumblebees do more than drop their DNA on the queen and fly off into that good night.

I

see.

Well, happy early Father's Day, everyone.

This has been another episode of Can I Bug You? Produced at KUCR Studios, University of California, Riverside by Jules Bernstein and Dr.

Doug Yanega.

Oh boy, is this just Fox News' story? Do they not have the, do I have that pulled up, I guess? Yeah, we have this one.

This is Fox News Politics, a deleted 2013 Father's Day post from Rep. Ilhan Omar is back in the spotlight, and it could be a critical piece of the federal investigation into her identity and immigration records.

In the post, Omar referred to her father as Nurse Syed, a name strikingly similar to that of her former husband, Ahmed Nur Syed Elmi, the man she had been accused of secretly being related to.

The Congressional Black Caucus and other records list her father's name as Nur Omar Mohammed.

So one that is really vivid to me was my gift box business celebration box in 2018.

We had Father's Day coming up and the orders just went completely crazy.

I did too much marketing.

I mean, I never realized or I never thought that it was possible to do too much marketing.

So go back to 2013.

Ilhan Omar on Twitter at the time, this was before it was X, posted a happy Father's Day post to her father.

This is what she posted.

She said, happy Father's Day to my abo, Nur Saeed.

I am forever grateful to Allah for giving me the best father.

Well, she didn't refer to him as Nur Omar Mohammed, did she? She referred to him as Nur Saeed.

I said I'm not.

Oh, imagine on like Father's Day, she's like, you can't be the number one dad because the competition is fierce.

Yeah, that's right.

There's not even a competition for number one dads.

He'll take a collect call from you.

I didn't never plan for it to be on Father's Day, but it just so happened to be 21 years ago on Father's Day that I was in that collect call.

How did the call go?

Yeah, I mean, I write about it in the book, and I've shared this with people.
