I come back to this clip every few months, and the quiet simple "embrace life" Alan gives here. There's nothing really revolutionary in the almost-three minutes, but the surety of Alan's perspective is what I focus on. With Joel and his company, Alan and his band, I can imagine the distractions they might experience from parenthood. Me? I'm a more regular type of parent, a bit more mundane in my daily life. But the universal part of the plea here is not "spend time with your kids" but "be active about how you spend time with your kids". And for that, it's a deep and meaningful piece of advice. Thanks Joel and Alan. And a quiet thank you to Mimi, whose passing I just learned of. Makes this advice a bit more poignant.
I have an almost 5 month old and work with kids (and their family's) who have been in trouble/incarcerated. I had to take the headphones off part way through this video and pay attention to my son based on being reminded of what is important from this video. Good stuff.....thanks for sharing!
Alan´s advice is spot on, I don´t get why my kid is mad at me now , just because I woke him up at 3AM to play with me
🤣👍
Low rules!! I saw them in Austin, Tx. back in the 90s right after “Long Divison” came out!! Amazing show!!
Great advice. I have an 18 year old. Time flies.
Thank you for sharing this - as a pediatrician for 25 years, I'd echo everything he said. He just made it sound so much cooler ;-)
As a father to a 15 month old - this is great advice. Thank you Joel and Alan. Thanks for the “dadvice”
Joel seemed so nervous to ask his question but Alan was so humble and wise with his advice. Low forever.

It's like something we all know, but forget from time to time, so need to be reminded... Cheers Alan and Joel
Thank you, Alan. Thank you, Joel. This is the reminder I need right now.

Wise words. Mine are turning fifteen and eighteen, and those early years feel like they flew past in the blink of an eye.
So true. Good reminder. Thank you so much, guys. ❤️
Wonderful musician and man 🖤 RIP Mimi
Needed this. Thank you!
Best kids review ever
Good reminder here!
Wise words from Al.
I love his voice 😎
CBA and Low?! Same time!? (wide-eyed)
