Sullivan interviewed Upton about his career and how he comes up with parenting content.

She asked if his kids like the jokes about them.
“They do but a lot of it isn’t even true about them and they’re like, come on dad really?” said Upton. “And I say it’s just a joke and they’re like, you did pay for college so I’ll let you slide on that one.”
