2 Dumb Dads

This week on the show the dads are talkin' potty training.  How do you do this!?!?!?!  It's just a frinkin' toilet!  Sit and poo on the toilet!  It's not that hard!  Why are you fighting me on this! It's traumatic.  Tell us your advice because we need all the help we can get.

It's a special episode as Chris interviews the first mom on the show!  This is something we hope to do periodically is welcome other parents onto the show to discuss their experiences and see if they can offer us an alternative vision of what parenting looks like. This week we welcome Becky Craig on the show to discuss some of her strategies for parenting.

This week in our Adventures in Dadding series Chris is talking about how it finally got to him.  Nick has been complaining about it from the start but it just finally caught up to Chris.  What is it?  Listen to find out!

Thea got a new kitty this week!  ...okay, that's actually just what she calls her new tablet.  It seemed like a good idea but Nick has Chris thinking otherwise.  They discuss.  It's a thing. Also, Nick got a new car and it talks to him in his sleep.  The Dads are going places this week.

This week in our Adventures in Dadding series Nick is finally telling us all about his two weeks without his wife's help.  Was he able to manage Miles or did he end up putting him in a cage for the stretch? For any protective service agents reading this I'm going to spoil that one...he didn't.  He was not put in a cage. Take a listen this week for the whole story!

Both Dads have officially kept their kids alive for two-and-a-half years!  Let's talk about it!  This week the Dads are just catching up about how parenting is going.  They talk about what they're thinking about as their kids are becoming more aware of the world around them and about how they're scared poopless as they think about the awful things they've probably said in earshot. Will Chris ever learn to stop talking about Santa's naughty nature?  Will Nick stop whispering swear words to Miles while he sleeps?

This week in our Adventures in Dadding series Chris is following up on his story about his daughter's Play Date.  It's a wonderful time...and also a little sad.  Sometimes our kids really amaze us with big leaps and sometimes they pick up on our worst traits. Take a listen this week for the whole story!

This week on the podcast we're discussing Emily Oster's new Book Cribsheet (and her interview with Ezra Klein on the Ezra Klein podcast).  Chris is reading the book right now and Nick has a lot of thoughts about how it utterly disproves everything Chris thinks about his kid. Oh...and will Nick choose science over his mother?

This week Nick has an Adventure he'd rather not have gone on.  It can be difficult to see your weaknesses and more difficult yet to overcome them once you know they're there.  Listen as Nick copes with his own recognition of those weaknesses.

Oof, so due to some technical issues which are totally not our fault (but maybe are) the audio quality might leave something to be desired. This week Nick is out doing some top-secret spy stuff.  I think he's invading Poland or sitting on the porch yelling at squirells.  Either way, we brought in a special guest, long time email writer Tom from Illinois!  Listen as we BS our way through questions about the Midwest and honestly just catch up.

In case you haven't heard, there was a bit college admissions scandal recently and a bunch of famous people you used to emotionally snuggle with might be going to jail.  That got us thinking...do we need to be thinking about our kids' college preparations already? Also...how come Nick can't just take the kids pacifier?

This week it's Nick's turn to tell us an adventure and he's telling us about everyone's biggest struggle...the pacifier!  Listen all about it and don't forget to check back on next week's episode for a discussion with Chris where he'll tell his friend all the things he's doing wrong.

This week the Dads are talkin' about the Momo Challenge!  Wait, what?  That's not a thing anymore?   Crap!!! Fine!  We'll talk about whatever comes next then!!  ...we also talk about other stuff I guess.  Ugh, I'm so disappointed.

So there's an article out there about how Dr. Seuss's books are filled with a bunch of horrible things and that seems right up our alley to stumble over.  We'll try to figure out how to deal with some of the themes in the books with our kids and what we think of the situation as a whole. Also, Chris calls Nick a dick for suggesting he's a dick.  It's a whole thing.

Wait...they're still making this?  You're poop smellin' right we are! The Dads are back this week and getting philisophical about what it means to "discipline" a child and when to do it.  We're not talking about how but when and why.   Also...we answer our most painful question yet.  Watch out for it in a new segment.

This week the Dads are discussing what their expectations are for their kids.  We always talk about how we expect them to fix the world we've left behind for them...but is that realistic? Oh...and Nick's kid tried a fish stick.  It's a thing.
