Two Dads Talking Podcast - Go Dad GO

I love parenting outside-the-box...

Ah that will keep the little munchkins quit for awhile ha ha ha

(Not my meme but I ♥️)

This has nothing to do with our podcast, but it is excellent, and is 100% something Tom would do.

Nicely done.

Another ODDD is available only on Patreon, and this one's a bit longer than the others...

Here's a One Dad Deep Dive into Loki, the Norse deity of wisdom, gender fluidity, sneaky lawyering, and oh yeah, trickery.

With this one you get a little storytelling, some scholarly insight, and a fair amount of reasons why Loki is, at the very least, important. See why he's regarded as the bringer of change, the manifestation of creativity, and the ideal chaos in a world too-strictly ruled by order. Truly the most complex, intriguing, and relatable character of the Norse Pantheon, there's plenty to say about Odin's "Blood-brother."

If you like mythology, hate the government, enjoy fantasy, dislike giants who steal and kidnap, love a good prop bet, or hate losing a wager to a sneaky giant and his magical (h***y) horse, this ODDD is for you.

Are we koalafied to have this discussion? What the better question would be, the problem with Christopher Robbin, and a Dad who punched his daughter's 13YO boyfriend. Also, meet the most terrifying bird in the world (thanks Doug).

Also, Patreon is live with member-only content! Find that here: patreon.com/2DadsTalkingPodcast

Is this a great philosophical question critiquing the dangers of the world posed to women by men, or is it just a slap in the face for 50% of the world? Spoiler: we thought it was a bit of both. What the better question would be, the problem with Christopher Robbin, and a Dad who punched his daughte...

Can we take a second and really break down #2?

Being a Dad isn't a sprint, it's a long and VERY patient march.

If you fall in a race, you probably lose. WHEN you fall in parenting, you learn how to get back up (and sometimes your kids do too).

It isn't a competition. Don't make the mistake of thinking you're trying to beat other Dads, or that it matters if some of them seem to be ahead of you.

No matter how great a job you do (and as long as you're not bowing out you're going to do great in the end), you're not going to get a medal. No one is going to hang gold around your neck and celebrate you. You're going to need to do that yourself from time to time.

You may not see them cheer, or hear them applaud, but you've got fans rooting for you every second of every day, and none cheer harder than your kids (even if they don't know it yet).

Screw Gatorade, drink Coffee.

If you're struggling this Monday, this month, this year, remember that no matter how hard it gets, you've got at least one incredible supporter cheering you on.

Never underestimate the amount of strength and fortitude you can draw from the tiniest sources.

Go Dad Go.

Bet you never thought kids' sleepovers could be explained using poker. Anyway, that's not even the interesting part of this episode. More interesting is hate mail from another episode, Edgar Allan Poe maybe falling victim to poll hustling, Michael Jordan schooling rookies, and our nostalgia over los...

And you'd better do it right.

11/07/2024

Don't look now, but we recorded an episode with structure! Don't get used to it. This week we're putting everyone in Arenas (you’ll see what we did there): Caitlin Clark vs. Everybody, Bluey vs. Industry Greed, Dane Cook vs. Dave Chappelle, and our top three (seven) TV Dads of all time. Also, if a...

Not just a Hippopotamus... and eleven-year-old's Hippopotamus. True story.

This week we talk chess, timeloop paradoxes, and Doug's internet connection being in the Arms of an Angel.

We're stepping away from the subjects that make Tom swear and diving into Chess. We've got theoretical Chess time loops, hippos, Doug starring in a Sarah McLachlan video, and of course, Dad Jokes. Show Links: How to Beat Kasparov Hippopotamus Defence Yep, this is our new 2DT Patreon page! Additional...

That's right - we are so distraught over our presidential candidates that we hardly acknowledged our galactic friends. While we talk (and mostly cry) about our voting choices nowadays, we still make time to comparative morality and protesting, how to tell if your new friend is FBI, and how much Vani...

This kid's Dad is doing everything right.

My wife once said I looked like a Greek god.

Her actual words were "Put your clothes on, we're in a museum" but I know what she meant.

Thank you Foxwoods Resort Casino for hooking a Dad up with some great free tickets. Dads need a night out too!

The one thing better than making your kids laugh, might be when they become capable of returning the favor.

Invest in your children. Give them the gift of sarcasm, snark and wit early on and it will pay dividends later in life.

This week we have our first official guest, one of Tom's former training officers.

Also: unwanted NFL souvenirs, real-life Fast and Furious, and of course Dad Jokes.

Thanks to Will for making the appearance! And thanks for listening!

We are joined by one of Tom's old colleagues who whisks Tom down Nostalgia Lane. Next, how would you feel if you lost your arm because you...watched a football game? We finish off the evening by swapping drunk (other) driver stories, kid's spring break, and Daylight Savings Time? Show Links: Chiefs....

Any other dads trying really hard for exactly this?

12/05/2024

Happy Mother's Day to our better halves!

To my wife: Ok, hear me out ...

Full commentary coming in the not so distant future.

No, this is not literally our positions on the matter. But made you look. 😜

Salty.

Go Dad Go.

An older story. But still amazing.

If the "What is a woman" episode left you fiending for more of two middle-aged men defining women's identities, you won't want to miss this episode where we also dictate women's right to utilize IVF.

The Alabama Supreme Court causes these two dads to debate for almost two hours, complete with devils' advocates, the Founding Fathers, and THE BEST bad analogies. Dive into our discussion of IVF and how we feel about a state court inserting itself into the procreative arena. Oh, and also we have ano...

Sorry about the delayed episode from last week! It's set to launch tomorrow morning and it'll probably give birth to some more criticism. Since our little podcast project is still in its infancy, we're willing to tolerate a breech of peace. It is, after all, a labor of love.

Looking forward to sharing Veni Vidi in-Vitro with you all tomorrow. Sorry we can't give you any hints about the subject matter.

05/05/2024

Reasonable chance we talk about this on the upcoming recording... Who's in?

04/05/2024

May the Fourth be with you. Go Dad Go.

Oh good, thought it was just mine.
