Dad Trade Secrets

On this episode, we discuss the joys and fears of new parenting with brand new parent and guest Sid Voorakkara; moms like drinking wines at the movies; it turns out girls don't tell their dads things -- lots of things; and the things kids around us said over the last couple weeks.

On this episode, Mr. Laing joins us in studio! Gil's youngest turns down a lead role; we feel the need to remind everyone that rape and even attempted rape are bad; based on the latest literature, we rethink whether to make your kids eat their veggies; and our kids go un-PC during the Emmys.

On this episode: We talk a lot about one of our local Congressman's recent scandal and the parenting consequences/causes; how great school uniforms are and how awful free dress days can be; we all buck the In-N-Out boycott; and the shit our kids said this week. Also, we forgot to mention it, but Will and I were drinking Four Roses Small Batch Whiskey and Rachel went with the Hibiki Whiskey.

On this episode: Gil's vacation and getting stuck in Spain; the Great Lucky Charms Mystery; old fashioned sexism; should you let your kids fly in First or Business Class with you; our kids reactions to European nudity and smoking and the realization the Junior High is is lame; and the lameness only continues through life. Plus, Molly Chase joins us in studio!

This week: the incredible fail of the First Annual Cabrera Awards, the terrifying experience of clipping a baby's nails (and the Dad Trade Secret for dealing with it), when your kids figure out their teachers are not smart, a weird (not sexual) friend and family rental trend from Japan, Will's proposition that dolphins are a-holes and Rachel's daughter drops some truth.

This week, Rachel Laing (mom extraordinaire) joins us as a featured guest. By the time the episode was over, we decided she needs to always be a featured host. So expect to have her join us from now on. We talk about Harvey F-ing Weinstein, the joys of amusement park gift shops, how morning FM radio tells you everything you need to know about what regular folks are thinking and sh*t kids say.

In this episode, we talk about how Gil almost burned down his house doing a basic job duty, what celebrities would we want to meet. Plus, Will's possibly preposterous proposition of the week -- the robots are coming. And one of our kids asked us what an adult superstore was as we drove by.

Will has a theory that there was a progressive baby boom after the 2016 election -- its based entirely on his three friends that had babies last month. Gil thought he was going to die -- which means he had a man cold. Plus, what happened last week and things kids say.

Will tries to use bowling as an analogy for parenting -- not sure it worked. And somehow, we had a longer than expected discussion about Iron Fist and what a stupid superhero that character is. All that and what happened last week, and stuff kids say.
