    About Dude Dad:
    Hi! I'm Taylor Calmus, a rural South Dakota born and Colorado-based actor/comedian. I started Dude Dad© two weeks before my son Theo was born as a way to stay creative while learning to be a father. My wife Heidi and I now have 4 kids and over 500+ videos. We also have a TV show on the Magnolia Network called Super Dad. My purpose for the channel is to entertain, enlighten and inspire.

    As a lifelong Colorado driver, the correct answer is to get into the left lane if you can when someone is merging onto the highway. If you can't, then you should slow down to let them in, but things are getting crazy out here for sure. 😬

      I, a front range native, met someone from Buena Vista who was very adimate that it was NOT "Bewnie" and "Bee-vee" was only acceptable for BV natives. The rest of us ought call it Bewna Vista. 😂

      Bewnee, Sawatch, Del Nort, Sal-eye-dah, Monty, and by a prominent Republican state senator in the 1970's, Pew-ebb-low. Also, the river that drains the Culebra is pronounced "Picketwire" but google knows how to spell it properly (Purgatoire). The oldest town in Colorado is San Luis, but it's in the South East corner of the San "Louis" Valley. Its much-coveted water is drained by the Ree-Oh Grand, unless you are an actual cowboy, in which case you might call it the Ree-Oh-Grandee. But the railroad is the Rye-Oh Grand (Don't blame me, argue with Commodore Vanderbilt).

      Pueblo can be pronounced over a dozen different ways. I lived there for a few years (under duress...hurried back to Denver as soon as I could) and where I worked we kept a list...

  • @fionarhiannonpitbullextrao5786

    🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Taylor, i had to learn this stuff, but in Michigan, not Colorado. Thankfully, my mom is a native, as are my aunt and uncle. Also, i had spent ALOT of time out here over the years before moving, so i picked certain things up on my own. My husband, however, was completely out of his element. What's hilarious is that we have been together 19 years as of this year (5 dating, 14 married) and i have been trying to educate him the whole time. I don't think he believed about 85% of what i was saying, because he was totally out of his element for a while. He was born and raised in Southern California, I had lived there for 25 years before we moved to Las Vegas for a decade. We moved to Michigan 5 1/2 years ago. First time deer season came around, he kept hearing guns go off and it scared the crap out of him (we lived with my parents at the time, the house was on 22 acres of woods, and our neighbors both to thr north and south would be doing target practice and also hunt from their deer blind). He started believing everything i had been telling him for 14 years at that point.

  • @phatmonkey11
    @phatmonkey11 Před měsícem +1

    But we don't call it Buena Vista. It's Byooney or BV. And Canon City only recently added the squiggly thing over the N so out of towners would know how to pronounce it. I remember taking a dermatologist down the Arkansas in my raft guide days and having him assault my ears with sunscreen at the put-in. I got food poisoning at Casa Bonita after I took my daughter there for her birthday. My husband has an F150. We adopted a pitbull 3 weeks ago. (Oops - terrier mix) Good job, Dude Dad. -Transplant from Tennessee, going on 30 years.
