About Dude Dad:
Hi! I'm Taylor Calmus, a 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 3 kids and over 300+ videos. My purpose for the channel is to entertain, enlighten and inspire.
In addition to Dude Dad©, I have been in numerous TV shows, commercials, and have regular appearances on Jimmy Kimmel Live. I will also be hosting my own TV show called "Super Dad" on the new Magnolia Network / Discovery+. Heidi and the kids will also be a part of the show. I am originally from the rural community of Howard, South Dakota.

You missed stage 0.5 where the wife is sick but still taking care of everything haha
😂😂😂
YEP! 😁😄
Yes!!!
I can remember being pregnant with our 3rd one (complete with hyperemesis, which I enjoyed with each pregnancy, so literally barfing every day for the whole 9 months), and looking after our 2 other kids, plus the house, and my husband came down with the flu. He required that I wait on him hand and foot because he was "dying". That was about 48 hours so not too bad. When I was sick though? Mr Sympathy: "Wow, you are ALWAYS sick. You should look after your health better.". I'm not sure why I haven't strangled him yet. (The 3rd baby was born 25 years ago. He's still the same sympathetic guy he was then.....his response to my daily vomitting was "Can you stop making that noise? I can't eat.")
Currently pregnant with our fourth, taking care of 3 sick kids (they have been sick for weeks now, thank you kindergarten) and now I've finally succumbed. Daddy fell sick last week and got 3 days off work 😑
You forgot that they often say "I know you had it, but it hit me worse." 😂
I can't stop laughing at this comment!
Yes!
Exactly
“U were being dramatic. I actually had it rly bad.”
Yup!
Hahahahah yup, classic husband logic
The thing I was most grateful for about giving birth was finally understanding the agony my husband experiences when he has a man cold.
🤣
😅😂🤣
Lol!! 🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
As a man, I am an expert on the man-flu. This video is 100% accurate.
😂😂😂
Yep.
Right? It’s gold.😂
What is the man flu lol
I am a man , I don't catch colds , never had the flu, never been vaccinated for COVID , never will, I DO BLEED DAILY, it happens every time I slice flesh with knives, even law enforcement can't stop me,
My husband thought he'd beaten covid in 2 days and went out to do lots of yard work. Ended up back in bed for a week while the rest of us were over it days earlier. Typical.
My husband has his “Covid tree” he swears cutting that tree down for firewood is the only thing that saved his life, not the 3 weeks on the couch 😂
Just an excuse to get out of work. ;)
OMG my husband tried to get on the Bowflex max trainer on day 3 and swore it was the key to getting better. Then he was out of commission the rest of the week, while I took care of the kids (who were positive with no symptoms, fighting and destroying the house all day), dogs and rest of the house, oh and during my birthday also.
@@doesnotFempute On the bright side, sounds like a Birthday to remember! Even if it's one you'd rather forget! LOL.
I live alone so when I get sick I can’t make excuses and still work or do whatever I have to do
Husband here: There's literally NO pain like man fever. Absolutely indescribable.
Thank you for the bravery of all the men out there battling this cold & flu season.
(Side note my wife is a saint and I am so grateful for her every day. We have a 2YO and another one on the way)
Congrats ❤️❤️❤️ you sound like my husband, he also tells me that his gas pains are way worse than my labor pains 😂🙄
@@rachel-c oh nooooo. I have literally no credence to do that, we had a c-section the first time around.
@@AnthonyGarvert 😆🤣🤣
@@rachel-c well man gas pains are worse.. I'm a man. I know. :)
The salt grinder was hysterical!
The salt grinder was hilarious!! 😄
They should do a seperate video on bath salts... no man alive understands them
The stubbornness to complete baby is 100% accurate
“Bluey slaps”😂🤣 This was too funny! Sometimes I forget how hilarious Heidi is.😅💕
Bluey does slab 😂😅 as a first time dad 😂
I'm sick right now watching a full season and I got legit mad when my daughter came in
@@demris15 😂😂
Almost three Decembers ago, the hubby and I both got sick. He did have fevers with his and I didn’t, but I was 38 weeks pregnant taking care of him. And he did think he was dying. 😂
Sounds accurate. 😂
Omg I've been there. Pregnant and so sick with a super bad cough and forced to sleep on the couch so I wouldn't wake the hubby. Still cooked and cleaned and went to work (which was socially acceptable back then ha). Husband got it, i waited on him hand and foot while he literally dud nothing and I STILL ended up sleeping on the couch because his coughing kept ME up haha.
@@marchingham oh my! I wasn’t working at the time thankfully, I wouldn’t have gone in. And hubby had been sleeping in the couch for a while since I would snore so bad (pregnancy!) so he just stayed down there.
@@marchingham Hahaha,I just made a similar comment about being pregnant and babysitting my sick husband, and thought "Shoot, it makes him look like a jerk. Should I have said that?" Glad to see I'm not the only one who has suffered through that!
@@marchingham I always ask, why when I am sick do I leave so you can sleep and when you are sick I leave so I can sleep? Can't you leave some of the time. But now we have a spare room (or spare 'oom, Child #4 Lion, Witch, and Wardrobe as a High school senior), and the well one moves out so sickie gets the master bedroom/bathroom all to his/herself to try to keep germs contained.
Heidi does the most PERFECT impression of Tyler, so nuanced and completely spot on. I almost thought it was him a couple time lol same exact mannerisms Great acting Heidi!!! 👏👏👏
You two were truly made for each other. Live long and prosper.
I was trying to contain myself but finally lost it with the salt grinder 😂🤣😂 we’ve been married for 25 years and this video couldn’t be more accurate…..especially the talking with his mother. To all the wives and significant others out there it strikes a cord 🤭
I’m married to a pretty amazing man. He pushes through the whole time, working from home so he doesn’t get coworkers sick (his job is flexible). If he does actually spend a day in bed I know it’s really serious. Although, I wish he would let me take care of him more, he says I already do enough for him and the kids and he doesn’t want to put one more thing on my plate.
He will also offer to work from home and take care of the kids if I’m feeling sick. Like I said, he’s amazing!😊
My husband is similar 🥰 He’s aware of the “man flu” thing too so I think he really tries not to act like he’s dying whenever he gets sick. It’s cute.
Awww!!! So sweet! Them’s are real men.
Clone him! 😉
That's sweet
Where did you find him? Are there anymore?
Heidi doing these pregnant always cracks me up 😂😂
She uses the fetal girth to heft up the imaginary man belt buckle!
I was recovering from hernia surgery. At the same time, my husband got sick. He whined that his sore throat pain at the time was worse than surgery pain. It was the WORST sore throat ever, according to him. We have not let him live that one down. :)
Is been a long time since my hernia operation but I think I'd seriously consider taking that over a seriously bad sore throat. Of course, maybe I'm blinded by the rose-tinted glasses of memory...
“Kids! Stop being kids!” 😂😂
So, how long did it take Heidi to get off the floor after filming those scenes? 😂
Gotta love her commitment!
I was totally thinking that!
Hahahahahah omg. Literally so accurate.
The impatient yelling from the other room. Omg😂 and the remote being RIGHT THERE!! Its not even exaggerated its exactly what happens 😂😂
You guys are the best
It's great to spread awareness about these near death experiences. So sorry fellow guys.
Oh my gosh this is so hilarious and completely accurate. We're either fine or we're dead. No middle ground. Can't wait for the bloopers!
The salt grinder over the tub...hysterical!
I was expecting it to be dropped in water due to falling asleep lol. Epic stuff
And the way she/he was hung over tub exhausted. So accurate
As a wife, I'm laughing so hard right now!! You are SPOT ON!!!
The denial, blowing his nose with a paper towel… I’ve seen all these things in real life. This is real, people!
Edit: Also, I don’t have to be sick to tell the kids to stop being kids! 😆 I often say things like, “Why are you acting like a 3 year old little boy?!?!”
You are so hillarious. Thank you. Especially "stop being kids" and "I need more blanket I need less blankets". 🤣🤣
The salt part had me rolling 😂
This is almost like my husband, except he continues to say he's not sick when he clearly is. He'll follow it with a shot of vodka, says that'll cure it (it doesn't), then says he just needs to nap for a few minutes (hours go by), and continues to push through it, usually chugging a few beers along with the occasional tea (that'll counter the beers) while he does some chores out in the garage. He never gets sick. He was never sick.....sure.
I love this woman!! You definitely got a keeper..her sense of humor is Awesome!!😂 Watched this several times and laughed more everytime! Thank you,this made my day.❤
@1:15 absolutely LOST it at “stop being kids.” ☠️🤣😭
I'm surprised there's no "I'm going to put everything spicy in my food to get rid of this." Or is it just my husband? Lol
Stage Two is what Moms have to do to take care of their families. When we get the flu we have to take care of ourselves.
This video is 100% accurate. I especially love Taylor teaching Heidi how to make boy flu noises. Too precious!
Oh my goodness "mind over matter" that's a direct quote from my husband! You nailed this!
Omg this is SO true! My husband is insufferable when he's sick 😂
Side note: Heidi, I commend your ability to get down on the floor pregnant! I could barely bend down, let alone lay on the floor while I was pregnant 😂
Truth! When I was pregnant, if I was down, I was DOWN. It made me so mad because I always had stuff to do. haha
Total agreement. I don't know how she does it. I was like aturtle on its back if I ended up on the floor....
Women don't realize men exaggerate because men want some alone time. If we are "really sick" we get our personal space. If your man does this often, you're the problem, not the sickness.
@@uknow1094 lol guessing you're single, right??
@@uknow1094 wow bro, I feel so sorry for your wife! Wonder how you tricked her to stay with you for 10 years 🤔
Way to go Heidi . I laughed from beginning to the end .Take care of yourself.
“ I don’t get sick” is exactly how I caught my first & worst bout of covid😭 Right before the pandemic blew up, two of my friends were sick af…I hung out with them & shared a straw with them, saying “pffft I don’t get sick” when they warned me. Couple days later, I 100% regretted that statement lol
My husband has an additional stage - "Sweating it out" where he insists he needs to go to the gym and work out the sickness. Always ends with me arguing that he‘ll get myocarditis if he does that which usually deters him 😂
did you look up myocarditis for him ?
I love how the baby bump just looks like a beer belly.
So true! My husband rushed recovery after an…emergency appendectomy. 13 days in the hospital, told to wait 4-6 weeks before returning to work (school band director). He waited 2 weeks, went back to work (marching band season, hot September), was standing in the middle of the practice field and realized, “Hey, I feel light-headed.” 🤦🏻♀️ The kids even noticed he wasn’t all right. The other band directors told him they hadn’t expected him back for at least another month, but, noooooo, “gotta push through it!”
Addendum: this was the same man who started his first teaching job in January (1996). We got married in February on a Saturday and I had to force him to take Monday off because his job was in another state; he was going to marry me then dump me in a new town/state nearly 350 miles away without at least showing me around first. He refused to go on a honeymoon because he was afraid they’d fire him. The school faculty had a small get together for us and the principle said…I didn’t expect you back for at least a week. 27 years later I’m still waiting in that honeymoon.
I hope you get that honeymoon soon! Best wishes to y’all
Sounds like my guy
Ohmygoodness sounds like anxiety and workaholicism
The rest of the family has the sniffles and my husband is stage 3 for 2 days 🤣🙄🙄🙄
😂😂😂 Why do they pretend they can't get sick until they are dying? I don't get it.
You guys are awesome.
I've been married 25 years and this is so true.
Bluey does "slap" as the kids say. My daughter is currently watching it and I listen to it all day. "Sleepytime" will go down as one of the best cinematic experiences ever created.
I was literally introduced to the show by another adult 😂
Bluey is legit! Stumpfest!!
Oh Heidi!!! You are so fun :) You and Taylor are made for one another. Thank you so much for all the wonderful posts- they always make me belly-laugh.
Love you both for making my day. If your hubby is Hispanic, it's crackers, sprite & mentholatum! Thanks 😊
Say it right- Crackers, Ehsprite, and Vicks Vape-o-rub! Hahaha I told my friend yesterday to get some Ehsprite and some Pink medicine for his upset estomaco
Yep. Been married 31 years. So accurate. Especially the "I'm dying". Oh and the snot. Ewww. And the roll of toilet paper 😂. Wait and the more blankets and the remote. You nailed it all🤧🤒🤦.
All of this literally happened to us a couple weeks ago, including the Bluey marathon. This is the most accurate video you have ever made. 😂😂
My favorite is when they feel they need to tough it out at work and share it with everyone else. At least covid shined a light on how asinine that is.
I feel targeted... 🤣
I love how Heidi is pregnant but, with a backwards ball cap it imitates men perfectly- ha ha you guys nailed it👌🏼
Your videos are always so much fun to watch!!!
Yay!! I've been waiting for another Heidi as Taylor video for awhile! Awesome.
This would have been great with a Taylor reaction!! 😂😂😂😂
Yes! Bring on the Taylor reactions!! Heidi's are my favorite! I get excited for the video knowing their coming.
She's so good! I loved this! Accurately reflects all men when sick!
You guys are awesome ! 👏🏾
When i do get seriously sick (like almost the whole month of October!) it only happens every 4-5 years. I just spent almost the month of October with severe sore throat (if i could have ripped my own throat out I would have to stop the pain) then changed into a very strong sinus & throat cold. I'm now down to a more manageable symptoms - But through it all my hubby has been there for me ❤❤❤.
Between going to the store to keep us fed & getting anything I was needing or such, backrubs, keeping up the house,... He knows i don't complain (but when I start crying from the pain/symptoms - he knows that's not my MO) but he comes thru! ❤❤❤
Love, love this video!! Heidi did an awesome job 👏.
My husband was coughing because he is allergic to dust, and working with harvesting stirs up a lot of dust. So he's coughing like crazy and I want to give him an allergy pill, and he's like , what pill, what for?!!
This appeared in my recommended and I was in tears. The timing is perfect! My father and my teen son are currently "dying" from flu.
Awesome! Spot on!!
This was hysterical! Thank you
Watching this with my husband who has pink eye. After he came home and I saw his eye, I sanitized EVERYTHING!
You all crack me up. Cheers!
Ironically, these are the same stages of “Teacher Flu” 😂 except we get stuck on “push through it” because that’s easier than preparing for a sub then recovering from a sub 🤦🏼♀️
Heidi you rock !!! What a hero . Spot on!
The literal rolling around dying on the floor shots are the best.
Heidi! 🤣 I think this is your best Taylor impersonation yet.
I literally told my wife I'm hoping you mention the desperate struggle with the bowels ..I should never have questioned it 👍👍😂
So perfect in every way!
Heidi, love your plaids!!!!!😄
"THAT'S PLUMB." LOL
So true, so true!!
"Stop being kids!" Haha😂
Spot on!
Yoooooo this is SO on point🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
Guys! First of all hilarious! I love it when Heidi is Taylor in the videos!!
That chair in your living room, with the wood frame and cream colored upholstery, where did you get it? My husband and I have been looking for one like that!
🤣🤣🤣🤣this is so true 💯!! Love the channel!!!
Omg!! Perfect! Love it! 😂
Absolutely ACCURATE!!!!!!
🤣🤣There are two talented people in Dude Dad's marriage. Well done, you made me laugh!
This is my brother-in-law. Whenever I hear he's sick, I love talking to my sister; she goes nuts at his man's colds. I'm forwarding this video; too funny.
Not sure of any other channel on TH-cam that I enjoy more. Overall humour is fantastic and so entertaining. When does the Dude Dad movie come out? … no seriously
Heidi, You Are So freekin Awesome!!! You've got me Cracking up 🤣😂😅 WELL DONE HEIDI.. YOU NAILED THE TYPICAL MAN "IN MY OPINION" WHEN THEY GET SICK.... LOVE THIS VIDEO 💯
Spot on you two. That Better be Jim’s wings.😂
That's spot on!
I'm new here and yes that is so true. I have been sick in bed and my kids have been take care of me when my husband is at work. He hardly ever gets sick.
Love it ! So funny !
This is not only accurate but also extremely timely. The whole family has the flu right now, and we were just talking about the man-flu.
This is how Dad sick is too!!! Great video guys!!!
Been married almost 45 years. Depends on what the ailment is, but my husband is mostly a suffer in silence or take care of himself type. He rarely asks for my help, so if he does, I know he's really feeling lousy, and I'm happy to help him.
Guy type 1: Dying from a man cold
Guy type 2: Guts are literally hanging out of his abdomen and insists he is fine.
Guy type 3: Can take of himself and seeks medical care when appropriately needed and listens to their doctor.
Unfortunately type 3 guy does not exist.
@Jared Haas …😂
I am type three, been taking care of myself for thirty five years
This is insanely accurate. Both the stages and the impersonation. Well done 👏
Oh my heck! The salt grinder was the funniest thing! 🤣
Honestly, I’m just surprised if they can fit into each other’s clothing and pull it off also, there should be a new segment call. Taylor reacts.
This was so accurate and entertaining. You nailed it 🤜🤛 😆
This is a great impression of you 🤣👏🏼
I always hear about this "man flu" but it must be one of those urban things. The only times I remember my dad being unable to work involved ambulance rides, emergency rooms and broken bones.
My dad never stopped while sick either.
For reals! When my kids are sick, my husband has absolutely no patience for them, but when he gets sick he expects all the sympathy in the world…and still has no patience for the kids.
The bloopers are hilarious!
Great job Heidi👍♥️
Hilarious!!! So accurate!
We love heidi!❤ love this video, haven't have these in a while.
