Episodes
Oh the joys of kids. These dads have been busy as of late. hence no new fun episodes... the las two months. But good things come to those who wait. Join the dads this week for the roller coaster ride that was Jamaica, the last days of kindergarten and a moving update that will bring the dads to the same state, again.
European travels with kids. Travels back to see some good friends. It's been an eventful few weeks for the dads. Join the guys this week as they discuss world travels, a tasty Guinness and things they occasionally miss while being parents.
Some of life's adventures and learning moments are tough. They take time and practice. Other times you may find yourself in a blizzard in Park City teaching a 6 year old to ski and she may only need 20 ft to feel that rush of success. Join the guys this week as they recap a family trip to Park City and try to solve a great mystery of parenthood...because 1/5th of something is always better than 0/5ths of something.
Limits. We all have them and we realize those limits at certain stages in life. Sometimes you like nicer vacation spots or finer food experiences. Other times you realize the tent camping life just isn't you or HIIT training is a young man's game. Join the guys as they discuss recent experiences they have had where they realized their limits.
Ups and downs. Failures and successes. It's part of life. It's not about getting knocked down but getting back up. Join the guys this week as they explore their recent recording failure mixed in with some family vacation successes. Maybe toss in a little football because well the dads are dads after all.
You'll learn your lesson kid. A common expression among parents. Whether it is jumping off the couch or touching the stove, you'll find out sooner or later not to do it. Kids are always experiencing new things and learning from them, both good and bad things. Join the guys this week as they discuss some of the better lessons their kids have learned recently!
Some parts of life there are no answers for. When it comes to child attitude development and meltdowns, it's basically best guess. There is no reasoning or response that will be good enough. Join the guys as they discuss their toddler meltdowns and any successes they have had. Also a bonus topic.. Santa's coming, right?
Join the Dads this week for their most controversial topic to date. It's not even Halloween or November and the guys can't keep control of their excitement for Christmas! Because as we all know, no one really cares about Halloween and Thanksgiving. Taking candy from strangers and eating stuffing just doesn't compare to a jolly old fat guy breaking into your house.
Finally...after two long months the dads return to the airwaves. While there weren't any TMZ rumors of a break-up or solo careers, the simple reason was LIFE. These dads wouldn't have any daisies to pick if life never got in the way. Join the guys as they give a life update and visit why they maybe struck gold with 4 kids who actually enjoy...wait for it....The dentist and doctors office.
Ahhh Kindergarten. A right of passage for kids. Their first "big kid" school experience where the learning is a little more in depth and a lot is expected of a 5 year old. New friends, new teachers, new school and laptops...yes laptops...it can be daunting but our kids are resilient and will surprise us. Join the guys as they relive the first weeks of kindergarten for their "big" little ones.
Parenting is all about managing the excitement and fear of being responsible for someone else. It can be a lot and for parents it's always something that worries or excites us. Our little ones may only be 5 but we can look to the future. Join the guys as they discuss what they are scared about in the next 15 years as well as the things they are most excited for in this weeks episode.
It's not always about working harder, but working smarter is a key to life. Life hacks have been around for centuries: The invention of the wheel, assembly line, the spork, you get the idea. The most important hacks are parenting hacks. Join the guys as they discuss some efficient and sometimes aggressive parenting hacks to make life with kids a little easier.
Nostalgia. As we get older we always look back a the simple joys of life. When we were kids, life was easy. Just be home when the street lights came on after playing with your friends all day. Maybe sign into AIM to chat about it...AIM? Oh ya, something your kids will never experience. Join the guys as they talk about the things they had and did as kids that their kids will never enjoy.
Everyone always talks about the aggravations when it comes to the kids. They don't listen, they wake up early, or they are picky eaters. Very rarely do we talk about the best parts of parenthood. Join the guys this week as they enjoy their favorite things about being dads, all the good things the kids provide.
