I know it’s off topic, but @OW how about a Dad’s Home State episode where Bruce changes in and out of his various ridiculous costumes? Carhartt Man, Biker Man, Mad Scientist Man, Duct Tape Man, etc. But he never wears the costume he was elected to wear… Governor Man.

Filming is underway on this tour for a 2-part episode of “Dad’s Home State”.
Once editing for part one ends, I’m confident it will air shortly thereafter.
