Your Two Dads

This is the End. Beautiful Friend. Thanks for coming along for the ride. Closing out the show is Army veteran Chris Reid. Chris shared about army and veteran life, PTSD, and even some dad stuff. In terms of followers, he might be the most famous guest the show ever had. He was pretty cool and fun to talk to. Maybe you like it. Maybe you don't. I hope that something from this show helped someone. You were a dedicated 12 or 13 listeners. Zero feedback, though. Find me on Facebook for updates about my next podcast. If you like comic books, you'll probably dig it. Party on and be excellent to each other. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

69 Dudes! In the penultimate episode of the podcast I had the second half of a home and home interview with Brian Sirimaturos from the "Tossing Salad Podcast". Check it out sometime. His other episodes are way better than the one I was in. Promise. Over here on my turf, we talked about everything under the sun, including mental health and podcasting while introverted. Hope ya like it. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Hey everybody! This week I talked to Jeremiah Rogers about the Navy and all things Stepdad. Finally got a stepfather on the show! Only took around a year. My goals were always small-ish. Enjoy! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Howdy folks! Garrett Fredrick of the "Trail Trash" and "Go Dad Go" podcasts joined me this week to talk all things ultra running, rants about the Premier League, crazy hallucinations, tips on trips to Disney World, and if that wasn't even, we even talk about some dad stuff. We should get medals for cramming so much awesome content into one episode. I didn't even recycle the joke at the end. If you ignore that fact that I got it from Reddit.

Hey everybody! You'll never believe who's back again. It's ME! I'm back again!! I didn't come back alone either. Rick Davis came along with me. Rick is a lethal combination. He's a Marine AND an Air Force veteran. A firefighter. And to top it off he's also a father. I'm surprised we kept the conversation to an hour. It's short enough that you could probably finish it within two bathroom breaks! Have you liked/subscribed/shared/followed/reviewed yet? Be a lot cooler if you did... ***Are you in the Armed Forces?

Oops. I forgot the last match of round 1. How come no one mentioned it? Here it is in all it's brevity! Enjoy the debate as the father of Superman, Jonathan Kent, goes up against the creator of Festivus AND George Costanza-his dad Frank! Things got hot and heavy and some curse words were, unfortunately, thrown around. Enjoy it if you have 12 minutes free. It's definitely better than hitting yourself with a hammer. Hosted on Acast.

Howdy folks. This time I talked to Michael Eback, father of two young girls and one half of the podcast "M&A's Excellent Adventures". We talked about the difference between having boys and girls, his best dad advice, and an enormous amount of nerd talk. There was other stuff but if those 3 things don't get you interested, then the rest won't tickle your fancy. Check out Michael's podcast on Youtube and give him a like and subscribe.

Hey everybody! Yep. Back again with another one. I scored big on this one. Dad. Veteran. AND super cool. Zach Selch filled up the episode with cool stories and tips from a master of the Fathering Arts. Find out how being a paratrooper in the Israel Defense Forces compares to being an Army Ranger or Navy Seal. Ever wondered what other armies eat in the field? Want to know how to raise mentally tough children that DON'T hate you? Man, we've got all of that and more. A bonus to all of this is that Zach teaches salemen and women to up their game in a psychologically challenging career field.

Friend of the show and host of the "In the Blood" podcast, AC Bergen-Fischer returns to help me close out my mini-series on mental toughness. AC packed a full episode of tips, techniques, and advice into this one so it's a great note to end on. Eagle-eyed listeners and smarty pants with good memories will remember that this was originally meant to be a 6 episode series. Unfortunately, scheduling and life got in the way of guests 3-5. I think we'll all agree that AC ended things with a bang. If you don't agree, then I didn't want to be your friend anyway. Where's my ball? I'm going home. Hosted on Acast.

This week I bring to you the one and only, never to be duplicated, Josh Williams from the rad podcasts "Welldagum Podcast" and "Podbless". The first thing you'r'e going to notice is that Josh's audio quality is a bit... off. Don't worry! He fixed that as soon as the recording ended, so he will sound perfecty fine if you check out his show. They do live shows on Facebook as well as dropping that baby on the podcast apps. It's also family-friendly. Unlike this one. In this episode, the audio did not improve, but the content hits hard enough that you soon look past it. Or at least that's what I'm telling you will happen. If you believe me strongly enough, that will make it true. Honestly though, Josh was candid and honest about finding true love, being a stay-at-home dad, enduring a miscarriage, and transitioning from tough guy ex-coal miner mindset into loving and caring 'dad' mode. It's a pretty good episode if I do say so myself. Course I made it, so I would say that. Don't (definitely DO) take my word for it though. Give it a try four or five times and see what you think.

The action gets hot and heavy with the start of Round 2! I had to bring in AJ and Jon from the Family Matters Recap Podcast "The Delicious Recap" to help me debate who reigns supreme in the dad realm: Carl Winslow or the Man of Steel, Superman. AJ and Jon were awesome. Find them on Youtube, IG, and Tiktok @familymattersrewatchpod and linktr.ee/familymattersrewatchpod. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Today I talk to Eddie Reyes. This awesome dad is my first ever Mexican on the show. Kinda special to me as I'm a big fan of Mexican History and actually speak Spanish. Luckily, this episode was in English because my Spanish is really bad and I doubt Eddie would have liked translating my Spanglish into something understandable. Things get kinda heavy in this episode as we talk about dealing with a miscarriage and the effect that can have on your mental health. We don't stay down too long though, and end with a hilarious joke that was probably not recycled from another episode. (OK it definitely was, but who listens to every episode?)

Hey Everybody! This time around I talked to published author and Army veteran Joe Soel about his book "The Broken Mirror of Memory". Joe's words were so powerful that I was moved to put it out early. You'll be hard-pressed to hear Joe talk about his time in the sandbox and not want to go buy his book. Joel was candid and honest about his struggles with mental health and he gave experienced advice to those going through the same things. Get your tissues handy for this one because it tugs at the heart strings. If you liked what you heard find Joel on X at JoeSoel2. If you're going through the the darkness that Joe describes and won't seek professional help, feel free to reach out to him or myself.

Hey everybody! This episode was a re-do for an amazing episode filled with heartwrenching, poignant life changing conversation. BUT I forgot to click a button and that episode never recorded. So you get this one instead. Much less plucking on the heart strings and more tickling the funny bone. Adam Bird is doing great work out there running the Heroes Media Group. One of the first ever Veteran podcasting networks, Adam has branched off like a sexy octopus and now has a hand in everything from making suits to publishing books. Grab that laundry basket full of clothes you still haven't folded and give us a listen for 45 or so. I guarantee you'll like the way you look. Wait. Wrong catchphrase.

The fun continues with one of our last first round matches. Mild-mannered father Clark Kent takes on even more mild-mannered father Marlin from "Finding Nemo". Who will come out the victor? Will the fish get vicious and pull out some Ric Flair tricks? Probably not, because this isn't that kind of tournament. Join the debate and let me know what you think at one of those innumerable social media accounts that I spend too much time on. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Hey everybody! This week I talked to Dad and Veteran William Caudle. We hit all the faves:being a dad, missing the military, mental health, and who's better between Maverick or Iceman. I even tell a dirty joke. Unless I'm remembering wrong. Won't be the first time. Have you liked/subscribed/shared/followed/reviewed yet? Be a lot cooler if you did... ***Are you in the Armed Forces?

This week in the Pop Culture Dad Tournament, I brought what felt like a slice of unintentional ASMR. I was so relaxing to listen to that I almost fell asleep during the editing process. I'm like warm milk and a blanket right out of the dryer. Curl up and find out who prevailed in the battle of the titans: Homer vs Andy. Listen once to find out who wins and then a second time to fall asleep tonight. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Hey everybody! What's that? You love the episodes that are like two friends talking? Great timing, because this is one of those episodes. Insane Joel (I never thought to ask his last name) from the Insane Asylum Podcast joined me this time around. We talked about being a stepparent and how you deal with the OG Dad. How the man in your young life doesn't need to be your dad. Dealing with the (possible) supernatural. Living with leukemia and MORE! It's the more that always pulls people in. Come spend another hour with your Online Inlaws. You're always welcome at my house. Have you liked/subscribed/shared/followed/reviewed yet? My grandma and your grandma were sitting by the fire. My grandma told your grandma: "you better get on that! My grandson is great and you should support him". Or something along those lines. ***Are you in the Armed Forces? A Veteran? A Dad?
