In this episode, the dads are back with another candid, laugh-out-loud session—venting about Outlook’s grammar policing of their “haha’s”, overpriced airport peanuts, and the mysterious behavior of zippers in aging jeans. Along the way, they thread in observations about digital communication tone, AI grammar failings, and the unexpected evolution of sardines into charcuterie board superstars. You'll hear real-life takes from the trenches of office humor, work travel, and dad-life details. It's all part of staying relatable, real, and slightly ridiculous in the digital age.
