Uncles-in-Law is what happens when three brothers-in-law hit record instead of just texting. Each week we talk family life, sports, history, and whatever broke in our houses. Highly opinionated. Mildly informed. #unclesinlaw #brothersinlaw #mattmira #stevevladeck #michaelshafrir

    Hi, Bluey Dad

    Matt and Henry spend fourteen hours at Disneyland, accidentally make new friends, and discover the joys of single-rider lines. Meanwhile, the guys debate whether teleportation counts as flying, discuss the strange state of college athletics, relive painful childhood injuries, and share stories about first impressions, family, and brother-in-law history. Plus: bat dogs, hacky sacks, Jewish Heritage Night at Fenway, and a Titanic-themed birthday party that somehow seemed like a good idea.

    Free Bet Blackjack is a Scam (FIXED AUDIO)

    Matt reunites with his entire family for the first time in 20 years at Disney, while Michael recovers from a Vegas trip that includes the mind-blowing Sphere, and a very confusing version of blackjack. Meanwhile, Steve gets locked inside a Substack party inside the White House security perimeter during the Correspondents’ Dinner (yes, really). Plus: Savannah Bananas debates, parenting chaos, forgotten subscriptions, gambling philosophy, and why rooting for bad baseball teams might actually be good for your productivity.

    The 50-Cent Baseball Contract, the Senate Hearing, and the Nanny Quit

    Matt experiments with a new parenting strategy: paying his son 50 cents for every ball he fields at baseball practice. Meanwhile, Michael deals with a nanny quitting mid–school vacation week, and Steve walks us through what it’s actually like to testify before the Senate (including a very real on-camera exchange). Plus: allowance debates, cash vs Venmo, travel stories, and an unexpected deep dive into the mystery of the Roanoke colony.

    The Baseball Meltdown

    Matt’s son has a rough baseball practice that spirals into multiple public meltdowns, a near car incident, and some truly tough parenting moments. The guys compare notes on kids, sports, and how much of this is actually normal. Plus: Little League chaos, snack politics, and why everything feels harder when other parents are watching.

    The Annual Review, the Bad Back, and the Private Jet

    The guys talk early-season baseball panic, golf being the only acceptable form of exercise, and the harsh reality of getting older (your back will let you know). Steve breaks down the mysterious world of academic salary memos, Michael vents about corporate performance reviews, and Matt explains how TV writers are actually evaluated. Plus: private jets, podcast monetization, phishing scams, and why none of them are built to switch careers in their forties.
