As a father myself who wants the best for his kids, it was good to hear Shane's dad's confirmation that his daughter in law's love for his son is real. Shane, you the man! You've got yourself a real gem there for a wife and I know you already know it and don't need anybody telling you that. Don't listen to the nay sayers. They are just jealous and wish they could be that successful in that area! Props to you big guy!
@@blumberg1982"Patronizing"? Quite the opposite. I'm not sure where you're from, but where I'm from, calling someone "big guy" is an acknowledgement of respect from one man to another. I view him as just one of the guys, not as a disabled person you have to speak to and treat with kid gloves. Apparently your view of him is quite different.....
@@lappy0749 in American culture “big guy” is what parents call their son when they’re like five years old. At least from what I’ve seen. My ex boyfriend (has a similar disease to Shane) also doesn’t like to be called “big guy” or “buddy”.
I'm tearing up listening to the story of how much love Hannah had for Shane that she was determined to get to him at this low point in his health.🥰 Especially knowing how reserved she was in public. There was no stopping her from getting to him! 😍
@@turnupyourlov3 Kirby Heyborne is one of my favorite audiobook narrators, but I agree with your idea and would listen to anything Shane's dad would read.
I lost my Daddy a year ago tomorrow, and I've been moping. Something made me turn on my tablet and I saw the notification. What amazing people you are, and how lucky you are to have such an amazing Dad. Lots of love from the UK.🥰💖
Can anyone please tell me WHY I am bawling while listening to Shane's dad visit with Hannah about their drive from Philly?! How certain people can think this relationship is built on anything but genuine love, is beyond me. ❤
Thanks for introducing us to Shane's dad. I have so much respect for his humility and humor. What an incredible combination. This was such an entertaining video to watch!
WOW. Just WOW. 10 seconds in of John on camera and I couldn't believe how much Andrew looks like him!! It's not only the physical part of it, but especially their facial expression, tone and way of acting! It's incredible!
@@joycedominguez8997 you've got to be kidding me... -.- I'm just gonna assume I didn't express myself corretly and the translation from Spanish was not the most appropriate, as English is not my first language. What I meant by "way of acting" is "the way they express themselves and their personalities; their verbal and non-verbal communication".
Yes! We inherit more than just looks. My brother sounds exactly like my dad and sometimes he acts exactly like my dad with the way he stands and his mannerisms. It's weird.
@@joycedominguez8997 She said English isn't her first language, so she was translating her thoughts from her first language. And as an English teacher in the U.S., I have to say, her English is better than most Americans'.
So cute to hear them argue😂... Hannah typically concludes with a simple “ok.” There’s no question that it was Shane’s fault regarding the mascara mishap.
As a wheelchair, user, I really related to all of these stories, and how scary things like that can be thank goodness Shane had you for a father! The bonding with Hannah was so cute. That is true love, and it’s great that you were able to have that realization together!
John`s way of storytelling, his voice, his facial expressions, his smiling, his choice of words ... wonderful. Love it. I could listen to him for hours. Edit: After hearing the second part with Hannah and John on the drive from Philly: Such beautiful memories. Such a great Junkyard Mayhem today, probably your best so far.
I went from laughing about Hannah’s one eye makeup & Shane’s no more sweaty hands to the most Genuine, sweet talk with Shane’s adorable dad. Thank you guys for sharing sweet memories. You guys are blessed to have parents who love you unconditionally. Sweet blessings always.
Shane & Hannah.. Your videos often reduce me to tears , various tears . Hilarious tears, emotional tears, frustrated tears due to the ignorance you both get shown, proud tears when you've overcome situations and finally tears of joy when i see the love you have for each other shining through, it is beautiful. I work with ASD children and constantly fight some of the same attitudes as you both face. The struggle is real. You restore my faith in love conquering evil 💕
If that guy was paid to play Shane's dad, he definitely knew his lines LOL. It was great to "meet" you Mr. Burcaw, you've raised a wonderful son and Hannah is a very lucky woman to have married him. He may be disabled but to me it sounds like he was a pretty typical little kid, causing his parents headaches everywhere he went. LOL. Seriously, it's very obvious that Shane got his sense of humor from you and that's a pretty awesome thing to inherit. He never ceases to make me laugh. Hannah, I loved the story about your bonding moment with Shane's dad. That's pretty incredible and I'm glad you two got that time to solidify how serious you were about your relationship with Shane and put to rest any lingering doubts that may have been in his or Shane's mom's heads. You two are a power couple and very compatible. You seem to bring out the best in each other and that's pretty awesome. Thank you for sharing this fun podcast today - it was really sweet to watch and I enjoyed every minute! Have a blessed day!
I wish my dad told stories about me! What a great family. I need to make more of an effort to tell my kids stories. I don't even remember my childhood much, so this is so special to listen to.
Your dad is really awesome! I could listen to him tell stories regularly. Maybe a podcast is in order telling scary stories at bedtime?? Idk but he's a great story teller! You two together would be a pleasure, Shane. Love to your awesome family.
Hi, Hannah and Shane ~ you always make me giggle ~ You are so blessed to have such loving parents. You are both a reflection of your parent's loving ways. "The apple does not fall far from the tree". Your dad is so cool! I see where you get your sense of humor. He and your mom did such an awesome job raising you to be the man you are. You had some adventures in your wheelchair! Such a sweet story of Hannah and your dad bonding.
I was so happy to see this podcast because i wrote a comment saying i would love to hear some of shanes childhood memories from his parents perspective awhile ago and my wish finally came true. Love hearing shanes childhood memories. He tells them in such a fun entertaining way.
The Hannah and Dad segment of this episode was incredible and very emotional. I enjoyed this episode so much and look forward to more content with Dad Burcaw in the future! Cheers guys and gals!
I laughed so hard. What a sense of humor Shane and his Dad have and love the bonding story. I don’t live too far from Bethlehem, PA. I live in Wayne County and have relatives in that area. I love following these two on their journey together. I am glad they started this RUclips program and are sharing their lives with us. Love to all of you!❤️
I realize I haven't been following you two for very long at all, but your personalities are simply the best! I don't think there is a video that I have seen where I am not laughing with you both!
Been watching for years but never comment. I was tearing up during that last story! This is the only podcast where I make sure I watch every single one and am also tuned in the whole time. Please don't stop making them, it's so nice to hear you guys talking in a long format ❤
Shane I hope you realize how much joy you bring to your viewers. Really helps put life’s ups and downs into perspective and to embrace the suck. Watching this channel is like a literal antidepressant. Keep up the good content!
I love this podcast format and it was so cool to hear from Shane's Dad. LOL about your important updates -- no pretenses here and that's so good. The mix of Junkyard Mayhem and Monday Grub Bag is excellent for variety, playfulness, insight -- all sorts of goodness. Congratulations on finding ways to keep your channel fresh and full of vitality.
Hi Shane and Hannah! I've just discovered you both a couple months ago & really enjoy watching your videos. Having been divorced after 30 yrs of marriage, I have just begun to date again and I can tell you that you are the example of how to treat your partner. The love you have for each other is true and unconditional. It shows in your faces when you look at each other and how you treat each other. I also never realized how inaccessible many places can be until I viewed your videos, it's truly eye opening. I know as your popularity grows you can use your platform to change this as well as educating others about ableism and how NOT to be. You are both intelligent people and I know as time goes by you will flourish. I wish you and your lovely families the best in life as you pursue your hopes and dreams. And I think Chloe is adorable too! 🥰🐕 Keep doing what you do!!
This is first time I've seen this channel. It's amazing. It also brings a tear to my eye. Where are more beautiful loving and caring women like you? I have autism and disabilities because I was in 3 terrible car accidents ..and more but I'd want to list it all. Everyone I knew including friends and most of my family don't want anything to do with me. I think this great seeing such love and devotion
I’m from South Jersey. Shane’s parents are us! Love them! Always assumed they were awesome because Shane is awesome, but now we know. Have dad on more often! ❤
When I saw your latest Junkyard Mayhem post pop up, it just made me smile. This time, the podcast title was spot-on. There was opportunity for all of it (laugh, cry, and cringe) and SMH. Hannah, you look beautiful, with or without makeup, or even half done. Having "hired" Dad join was a nice surprise. The humorous apple doesn't fall far from the horse (as my mom used to say).
You could do a Q& A like a Grub Bag of questions for Shane's parents as many questions people have are from external perspective, like about how to adapt a family to new tech etc as your kid grows up with a disability such as SMA. Or what were their biggest fears for Shane as he grew up? Were they different to the fears that your folks had for your brother? Opening this conversation might help people realise how normal life is with a disability.
This was so cute! Your dad is amazing, I think you should dedicate a full episode to him, with a real interview: it would be such an interesting conversation! I remember how he was optimistic and full of faith in Shane's future (in the documentary that made Hannah fall in love) and I would love if you would ask him more questions around disability and life in general. Love you guys! Great job with the podcast.
1) Hannah I think we didn’t notice because you are usually beautiful so we just assumed you are beautiful as always! 2) Shane it really doesn’t surprise me that you are a lifelong comedian, I am surprised you didn’t get in to “stand up” but I guess speaking to audiences is like that tbh! It’s lovely to hear nostalgia from your dad!
The realities of parenting a young child with disabilities. No matter what happens in life, straps, new electric wheelchair that gives a young boy freedom that every young boy would want to do…explore! Love wins over everything!
Shane, I love your Dad and I love the way you two interact. I lost my Dad almost 3 years ago and for some reason watching you guys and listening to him talk about memories with you had my eyes stinging with tears. Treasure every single moment together. You guys have an awesome relationship and I can totally see you having similar moments with your own kids someday. Beautiful segment. Thank you for sharing this with us. ❤
Hannah, I went back to look at the previous video and cannot tell that you had just one eye done. Also, I loved this podcast with Shane's Dad. He is awesome. I can't wait to see Shane's Mom be interviewed someday about raising this incredible human being, Shane Burcaw.
Right out of the gate with Jon’s interview I learned that Shane and his dad have an adult to adult relationship. Yes, I know it was a small glimpse into either of their lives, but they have transitioned, it appears, from Jon being the dad and adult andShane being the kid. Shane is an adult and so is his dad and they have a great relationship one filled with love and respect. Maybe we’ll all get that opportunity to be an adult and to be treated as an adult in our relationships. Especially the ones nearest and dearest to us.
Both sides of the families Aylwards and the Burkaws are in the whole NDA business agenda between these two Shane Burkaw and Hannah Aylward it's so obvious lol!!! The joke is all on the stupidity of believers that fall for this crap . Hannah Aylward number 1 lied and lied about getting pregnant from Shane Burkaw and or taking his sperm of some sort of sperm donorship agenda which that never happened and yet entirely it all never happened.
Oh my days, you pair are hilarious!! I always look forward to your podcasts and videos because you really do have a lasting happy effect on my day. Well done to dad too. 😆😆
Wow!!! Shane's dad is quite the natural as well in front of the camera. Very comfortable and laid back with a sense of humour. Particularly with his comments regarding being the payed actor, in the classic tongue-in-cheek manner you both have adopted in regards to the many naysayers out there. I can see where Shane got his sense of humour from now. Such a down-to-earth gentleman. It feels like your two families are meant to be together, so many complimentary facets and grounded attitudes.
DUDE!! I love that, and Dad is awesome!! The hardest thing in the world, to me, is allowing our special needs kids out there in the world and have to suffer taking their knocks, just like their non disabled peers. The story of dad and Hannah really getting to know each other was really great, and it even better now seeing them laugh and smile about the whole thing, and appreciating each other and their place in Shanes life. Honestly, if you could have hand picked your son's wife, Hannah would have been the best choice, imo. Hannah gets Shanes sense of humor, and that is not easy. They have a mutual appreciation of each other that, no matter what your abilities or disabilities are, you'll need to actually LIKE each other to get though a marriage over time. I see a lot of Shanes dad in Shane, it seems they have a similar sense of humor.
5:34 One thing I’d keep track of is when you do go back to MN and if Shane’s hands start sweating again, check the fiber content of both the pants and shirt. Start comparing. My suspicion is that when it’s colder, you may be wearing more polyester (or maybe another synthetic fiber) and that doesn’t breathe at all.
Such a fan of you both! I love when you bring your family members on, always so entertaining! I know you’re not in your own home but I feel like one of the framed pictures behind you needs to be discussed. It looks like a bunny sitting at a desk, writing something, almost in a school setting. It’s closer to Shane’s side. I can’t stop looking at it and wondering what it’s meaning might be. Would love to hear your thoughts on this 😂. I feel like this is could be a fun junkyard mayhem topic!
How much do I love you guys? You're so fun and crazy! SO fun listening to your Dad! That was so very Junkyard Mayhem that that woman had that piece of rope in her purse!!! That was the best podcast yet. I loved Dad and Hannah's chat! I actually got teary eyed!
Note to Shane's mama..., I am FREAKING in love with your husband! lol Even though I have read all of the books from father and son, and even though I have watched EVERY episode of Squirmy and Grubs and all of the Junkyard Mayhem episodes, I never comment. So, I will get it all out at once..., I can't even fathom the karma, serendipity, etc. that brought all of you together from such a distance. The two separate sets of parents are gifted in child rearing, despite Jon's doubts at times. Hannah and Shane, I think so highly of you both and enjoy being allowed to be such an intimate part of your lives, despite being a total stranger. Every time Andrew is on one of the episodes or just being spoken about, I just want to tell him how much I enjoy his loving (and fun) interactions with his bro. Andrew, you rock! Then there is Hannah's shy dad whom we don't really see, but would like to (hint) and Hannah's mom..., do we admire and adore her? Well, yeahhhh... What a lovely woman you are and what a loving parent you are. I have to say, you rock too! I was a close personal friend of the famous mouth artist, Robert Thome, and his wife Kathy, until his passing in 2020, so I asked all the lame questions of them that people ask of the two of you. They gave me a great education and I can identify when people ask the same inane, invasive questions of the two of you. You have both taught me even more. Thanks so much. Okay, I am done behaving like a stalker, lol, and just really wanted to say that you all, every one of you has brought enjoyment, knowledge, and warmth to my life and I appreciate you all. P.S. Shane, you are hilarious and Hannah, you certainly have your hilarious moments as well. Big smile from me. Oh, and P.S.S., Hannah, maybe in-person people might have been able to notice your mascara catastrophe, but as hard as I tried, I couldn't see it on my computer screen. You are safe.
The "Mommy Purse" comes to the rescue again! To everyone who makes fun of us few people (who have Everything anyone could possibly ever need in their bag,) We are needed! Love Shane's dad! I knew his parents had to be funny, smart and incredible people to have raised Shane to be the great man he is.
That was great! Love Shane's dad! He is so awesome! Great family stories about Shane! So good! 💖☺️🥰 Wow! That story about Shane's wheel coming off and the lady with the exact amount of rope in her purse 👜, was a God send to you for sure! Love it! 🥰💖😊
Omg!! love Shane's dad!! I can see where Shane gets his sense of humor and charm from!! Can't wait to see him again!! Shane will you be having your mom on the podcast?
Of course, I had to stop this video and go back and look at last week's video to see Hannah's eye makeup. Lol. You are so pretty I didn't even notice one eye did not have mascara.
It is no wonder why Shane and Hannah turned out to be such great people, their parents are awesome. And Shane and Hannah will be great parents too.
Yesss!
agreed!! i’m only 20 min in and i love them!! 💕⭐️
@@frozensunset you seem angry at the world… i hope you find love and healing💕

I love Shane’s dad so freakin much! 😂❤ Shane had to have gotten some of his humor from his dad! :)
So well put!

You could do a Q& A like a Grub Bag of questions for Shane's parents as many questions people have are from external perspective, like about how to adapt a family to new tech etc as your kid grows up with a disability such as SMA. Or what were their biggest fears for Shane as he grew up? Were they different to the fears that your folks had for your brother? Opening this conversation might help people realise how normal life is with a disability.
"I'm off the ointment!" Shane has such a way with words.
This was so cute! Your dad is amazing, I think you should dedicate a full episode to him, with a real interview: it would be such an interesting conversation! I remember how he was optimistic and full of faith in Shane's future (in the documentary that made Hannah fall in love) and I would love if you would ask him more questions around disability and life in general.
Love you guys! Great job with the podcast.
Shane's Father is a natural on camera! I really enjoyed hearing his memories!
I see where Shane gets his engaging personality. Enjoyed listening to your show.
1) Hannah I think we didn’t notice because you are usually beautiful so we just assumed you are beautiful as always!
2) Shane it really doesn’t surprise me that you are a lifelong comedian, I am surprised you didn’t get in to “stand up” but I guess speaking to audiences is like that tbh! It’s lovely to hear nostalgia from your dad!
The realities of parenting a young child with disabilities. No matter what happens in life, straps, new electric wheelchair that gives a young boy freedom that every young boy would want to do…explore! Love wins over everything!
Shane, I love your Dad and I love the way you two interact. I lost my Dad almost 3 years ago and for some reason watching you guys and listening to him talk about memories with you had my eyes stinging with tears. Treasure every single moment together. You guys have an awesome relationship and I can totally see you having similar moments with your own kids someday. Beautiful segment. Thank you for sharing this with us. ❤
Such a sweet man! Shane, your dad really loves your wife. It's very obvious! And your wife adores him! You are a fortunate man.
Shane: The Turkey Whisperer 🦃
Age 3 was a very bad year for you, Shane 😏
Loved your Dad, loved the stories 👍
Hannah, I went back to look at the previous video and cannot tell that you had just one eye done. Also, I loved this podcast with Shane's Dad. He is awesome. I can't wait to see Shane's Mom be interviewed someday about raising this incredible human being, Shane Burcaw.
Right out of the gate with Jon’s interview I learned that Shane and his dad have an adult to adult relationship. Yes, I know it was a small glimpse into either of their lives, but they have transitioned, it appears, from Jon being the dad and adult andShane being the kid. Shane is an adult and so is his dad and they have a great relationship one filled with love and respect. Maybe we’ll all get that opportunity to be an adult and to be treated as an adult in our relationships. Especially the ones nearest and dearest to us.
Beautiful and accurate insight. And yes, love wins over everything. Amen and thank you!
Your paid actor dad loves you both so much! Love it!!
Excellent casting
Both sides of the families Aylwards and the Burkaws are in the whole NDA business agenda between these two Shane Burkaw and Hannah Aylward it's so obvious lol!!!
The joke is all on the stupidity of believers that fall for this crap .
Hannah Aylward number 1 lied and lied about getting pregnant from Shane Burkaw and or taking his sperm of some sort of sperm donorship agenda which that never happened and yet entirely it all never happened.
Shane is so much like his father Both are hysterical, This was such a fun podcast!
I loved this episode so much. I despise my ex but I love his father. He's always been there for me. I'm so happy you love Shane and your extra family.
Oh my days, you pair are hilarious!! I always look forward to your podcasts and videos because you really do have a lasting happy effect on my day. Well done to dad too. 😆😆
FANTASTIC! This was SO MUCH FUN, I SMILED AND LAUGHED ALL THE WAY THROUGH IT. YOUR DAD IS AWESOME!!
Wow!!! Shane's dad is quite the natural as well in front of the camera. Very comfortable and laid back with a sense of humour. Particularly with his comments regarding being the payed actor, in the classic tongue-in-cheek manner you both have adopted in regards to the many naysayers out there. I can see where Shane got his sense of humour from now. Such a down-to-earth gentleman. It feels like your two families are meant to be together, so many complimentary facets and grounded attitudes.
DUDE!! I love that, and Dad is awesome!! The hardest thing in the world, to me, is allowing our special needs kids out there in the world and have to suffer taking their knocks, just like their non disabled peers. The story of dad and Hannah really getting to know each other was really great, and it even better now seeing them laugh and smile about the whole thing, and appreciating each other and their place in Shanes life. Honestly, if you could have hand picked your son's wife, Hannah would have been the best choice, imo. Hannah gets Shanes sense of humor, and that is not easy. They have a mutual appreciation of each other that, no matter what your abilities or disabilities are, you'll need to actually LIKE each other to get though a marriage over time. I see a lot of Shanes dad in Shane, it seems they have a similar sense of humor.
5:34 One thing I’d keep track of is when you do go back to MN and if Shane’s hands start sweating again, check the fiber content of both the pants and shirt. Start comparing. My suspicion is that when it’s colder, you may be wearing more polyester (or maybe another synthetic fiber) and that doesn’t breathe at all.
I listened on Spotify and had to come here to comment how beautiful and soothing your father's voice is!
Great Junkyard Mayhem today, really enjoyed your dad. He’s a natural talent and funny guy! But didn’t fall far from the tree!
Great podcast!! Very fun to watch Shane's dad interact with Shane (same humor) and his bonding with Hannah!! Loved it!!
Such a fan of you both! I love when you bring your family members on, always so entertaining! I know you’re not in your own home but I feel like one of the framed pictures behind you needs to be discussed. It looks like a bunny sitting at a desk, writing something, almost in a school setting. It’s closer to Shane’s side. I can’t stop looking at it and wondering what it’s meaning might be. Would love to hear your thoughts on this 😂. I feel like this is could be a fun junkyard mayhem topic!
How much do I love you guys? You're so fun and crazy! SO fun listening to your Dad! That was so very Junkyard Mayhem that that woman had that piece of rope in her purse!!! That was the best podcast yet. I loved Dad and Hannah's chat! I actually got teary eyed!
Absolutely beautiful in everyway- what a wonderfully heartfelt family- thanks to dad and S& G
Note to Shane's mama..., I am FREAKING in love with your husband! lol Even though I have read all of the books from father and son, and even though I have watched EVERY episode of Squirmy and Grubs and all of the Junkyard Mayhem episodes, I never comment. So, I will get it all out at once..., I can't even fathom the karma, serendipity, etc. that brought all of you together from such a distance. The two separate sets of parents are gifted in child rearing, despite Jon's doubts at times. Hannah and Shane, I think so highly of you both and enjoy being allowed to be such an intimate part of your lives, despite being a total stranger. Every time Andrew is on one of the episodes or just being spoken about, I just want to tell him how much I enjoy his loving (and fun) interactions with his bro. Andrew, you rock! Then there is Hannah's shy dad whom we don't really see, but would like to (hint) and Hannah's mom..., do we admire and adore her? Well, yeahhhh... What a lovely woman you are and what a loving parent you are. I have to say, you rock too! I was a close personal friend of the famous mouth artist, Robert Thome, and his wife Kathy, until his passing in 2020, so I asked all the lame questions of them that people ask of the two of you. They gave me a great education and I can identify when people ask the same inane, invasive questions of the two of you. You have both taught me even more. Thanks so much. Okay, I am done behaving like a stalker, lol, and just really wanted to say that you all, every one of you has brought enjoyment, knowledge, and warmth to my life and I appreciate you all. P.S. Shane, you are hilarious and Hannah, you certainly have your hilarious moments as well. Big smile from me. Oh, and P.S.S., Hannah, maybe in-person people might have been able to notice your mascara catastrophe, but as hard as I tried, I couldn't see it on my computer screen. You are safe.
You're dad is soo awesome!! It is soo cool to see you two laughing and telling stories!!
What a great dad!!
I think is the most I've ever enjoyed a RUclips video!
The "Mommy Purse" comes to the rescue again!
To everyone who makes fun of us few people (who have Everything anyone could possibly ever need in their bag,) We are needed!
Love Shane's dad! I knew his parents had to be funny, smart and incredible people to have raised Shane to be the great man he is.
Great podcast and loved hearing from your (paid 😜) dad too!! Super sweet hearing your dad talk about the “Hannah returns” story.
That was great! Love Shane's dad! He is so awesome! Great family stories about Shane! So good! 💖☺️🥰 Wow! That story about Shane's wheel coming off and the lady with the exact amount of rope in her purse 👜, was a God send to you for sure! Love it! 🥰💖😊
Omg!! love Shane's dad!! I can see where Shane gets his sense of humor and charm from!! Can't wait to see him again!! Shane will you be having your mom on the podcast?
We can certainly see where Shane gets his sense of humor. This was a great episode!
Dad's a natural... Give this man a podcast!!!
That so so awesome! Love Shane’s Dad. Great sense of humor too! 😊
Of course, I had to stop this video and go back and look at last week's video to see Hannah's eye makeup. Lol.
You are so pretty I didn't even notice one eye did not have mascara.
Love your dad's accent and could listen to him for hours , good casting 👍
Nice to meet Shane's dad. Love the stories about him being young. God was with him. Blessings 🙏🏾
