2 Dumb Dads

We're back! It was a long week of sick kids, visiting grandparents, and utter exhaustion but we're but at the mics and ready to talk about a new thought that's been on our minds -- dealing with divorced grandparents.  It's something Chris has been thinking about a lot this last week and he wanted to talk it through to see what we could come up with.  Will we have a strong thoughtful discussion or wind up making poop jokes for an hour?  Come on...you already know the answer to that. As promised we're also giving an update on our last episode...well, the episode from almost a year ago...about baby-proofing.  Oh how much has changed.  Sorta?

Kids are sick, family is in town, and everyone is exhausted so we're re-releasing one of our favorite episodes this week. In this episode from our infancy, we're talking about baby-proofing for kids.  If it wasn't pertinent then, it sure is now.  Take a listen to this episode and then listen in as week give a brief update on how we ended up tackling the problem and how it went in our episode next week.

This week the Dads are discussing the ubiquitous statement every parent has made to their child, "Don't you want to be big and...?"  Nick's wondering if you're subliminally shaming your child and creating a guilt complex while Chris just wants his kid to go on the frickin' slide. They'll also discuss a child named Fic, somebody who refuses to believe Carry Fisher is going to be in the next Star Wars, and how you should(n't!!!) crop dust people while suggesting our podcast to them.  This episode goes some places.

This week on the podcast, Nick explains to Chris how to manage his anxiety over hiring his first babysitter for his daughter.  Nick details each and every minutia of how a babysitter in nice simple words while Chris tries to debate that he should be able to stalk the babysitter on the nanny-cam. Somebody please send Chris help.  He might be losing it. They'll also talk a bit about how to talk to a neighbor about their dog constantly pooping in your yard and how Nick doesn't understand what bagels are. Send us your thoughts at emails@2dumbdads.com!!!

This week we're talking about the latest offering from Marvel, Ant-Man and The Wasp!  Were we stung by the latest film or did we fly high with it.  Only a listen will tell! Also, we have a major update for Nick's Baketastic Ballyhoo!  You'll have to listen to believe it! As always, you can check us out at 2DumbDads.com and on twitter @2_Dumb_Dads. Find Nick @NWestemeyer and Chris @ChrisMossAgain

This week the dads discuss whether or not Mac & Cheese is deviously coming to wreak your child.  Nick has had some personal issues with the gooey demon which has haunted his dreams since childhood but Chris literally lets his kid eat it for every meal of the day.  Who is right?  Does it matter?  Where are #cinnamonrolls! ...honestly, we're probably not gonna answer any of those questions but listen anyway. And don't forget to check the website! 2DumbDads.com @2_Dumb_Dads  @ChrisMossAgain  @NWestemeyer

This week on the podcast the dads are debating how to handle the infamous dinner debate.  Do you still tell kids about the starving children overseas or just let them do their thing?  They have opinions. Also, turns out Nick is off in Illinois this week and he wants to tell you all about the amazing and wonderful breads he's taking with him but still refuses to make cinnamon rolls. Also...Chris says something I suppose. Find us on Twitter @2dumbdads, @ChrisMossAgain, and @NWestemeyer 2DumbDads.com  

It's a bonus episode! In this episode of Monthly Download we're talking about Beyond Good & Evil.  It's a game we'd been hearing great things about for 15 years but hadn't played for ourselves.  We finally dove in and, frankly, we have thoughts.  Find out what they are inside! We'd also like to say thank you to @ChrisJFinlay and @JadeDomingos for their help with a bit of perspective on the game.  You can find Jade's film company Amarillo on Youtube at https://bit.ly/2lHO6fz.

This week the dads are talking about how to deal with celebrities who fall from grace.  Not that Rosanne was ever really what you'd call graceful...but wow, that's a pretty steep cliff to tumble off.  We also discuss various other celebrities, Chris cries over #notcinnamonrolls, and Nick doesn't understand the idea of "keep talking." None of this makes sense?  Listen to this week's episode and it'll all be clear.

We're talking Father's Day!   Turns out we have some strange perceptions on the holiday in general so we thought we'd let you listen as we argue our way through our thoughts. The important thing though, is that cinnamon rolls may finally be on the way!  Eventually...maybe...I mean probably not but we can dream can't we? Give it a listen and don't forget to share it with a friend!  :-)

This week the dads are discussing their concerns about how their own issues with body image could be passed on to their kids.  Swim lessons are starting soon and that means shirts off in front of other people.  How will they handle it? There's also a bit of discussion about Chris' trip home to the family and lots of curiosity surrounding Nick's refusal to make cinnamon rolls.  Keep up the onslaught of cinnamon rolls posts! Follow us on Facebook at the new Group and at our website 2dumbdads.com

This week we're discussing how we've considered the prospect of having (not having?) a second child.  Whose ready to clean up vomit all day every day?  Listen to find out! Tell us about your struggles thinking about having multiple children and how you avoided jumping off a bridge at emails@2dumbdads.com and at the 2 Dumb Dads Facebook group (which Nick promises he's going to make by the time this posts)!

It's a bonus podcast! This is the first rendition of our new (hopefully) ongoing series Monthly Download.  Each month we'll play through a new video game and have a chat about it.  Maybe it's a way of seeing how being a parent has changed our perception of our favorite games or maybe it's a way of finding an excuse to fit a game in every month...either way it should be tons of fun! This month we're playing the incredibly indie game Gone Home!  If you haven't played it yet I'll recommend playing through it before listening or watch Chris' playthrough on Twitch at rampant55 or on the 2 Dumb Dads youtube channel. Email us your recommendations for games you'd like to see us play and discuss in the future!

This week we're talking about family trips.  Chris has one coming up next week and Nick's been trying to figure out his summer schedule as well.  Listen to us do it on the podcast and then argue about why DisneyWorld costs so much! We're also talking about several new updates to the website and lots of other good stuff on the episode this week.  To keep up with all of it visit 2dumbdads.com and our facebook page!

Park conversations are hard y'all!  There's all these unwritten rules about what you are and aren't able to talk about with people at the park.  Can you talk to other people's kids?  Can you ask them questions?  Do you throw yourself in front of a car when the parents give you the death glare?  We talk about all of it this week! Also on the episode the dads chat about Chris making his kid a bully, Nick finally screwing up a bread thing, and we admit to still not having our articles done. Listen and then check in on 2dumbdads.com website and facebook page to chat about it!

We spoil the crap out of the biggest movie of the decade!  We talk about everything, especially the ending...actually, mostly the ending.  You've been warned! Also this week, the Dads talk about Mother's Day, Nick's latest baking, and more! Remember to check out the new website at 2dumbdads.com for all the updates and articles from your favorite dads.  

We're back!  After almost a month off (for us) we're finally back in front of the mics with all of our long teased announcements! This week we're catching up on all the happenings since we last sat down together and talking about how much of a struggle it is not having unlimited daycare.  Yeah...we're spoiled.  Especially Chris. Hear all about it and then tell us about your day care situations on the 2 Dumb Dads Facebook page!

We're airing a repeat this week.  We planned to be back with big exciting news and all sorts of fun bells and whistles...but we couldn't record this week so we're back with a rerelease of our favorite episode (with the worst audio known to man...I tried to fix it up.  I promise.  I just can't polish a turd.) about Nick's adoptive life. Check it out now and tune back in next week for all sorts of exciting details...hopefully.

This week the Dads finally get to talk about their one true love...video games!!! It's hard to find the time to really go in deep on a game when you have kids though.  It takes real dedication to find the time to play games.  This week Chris and Nick discuss their favorite games to play as parents and the rationale for why that is. I'm sure there's also another poop joke in there somewhere too.  You've been warned. Share your favorite games with us on the 2 Dumb Dads Facebook page!

This week the Dads discuss far, far too much poop.  They make bad poop jokes.  Mostly about family members...also about themselves.  It's really a bit uncomfortable how much they like poop this week. They also talk about the crap they're afraid of though and that's a little interesting. It's Episode 17! Enjoy the show and feel free to share your most embarrassing poop story on the 2 Dumb Dads facebook page!
