    #Throwback: The Dad Network feat. Aldo Alowishus III

    The Father Hoods spin back another throwback packed with laughs, lessons, and straight-from-the-heart Dad talk! DJ EFN, Manny Digital, and KGB welcome another longtime listener and father of three, Aldo Alowishus, into the booth for a conversation that feels more like a family reunion than a podcast. Aldo breaks down how he discovered the show through Cypha Sounds and why Father Hoods instantly became a space he could relate to, especially after an episode on sibling rivalry hit close to home and made him reflect on his own childhood and the kind of bond he wants his kids to have. From there, the episode weaves through real-life fatherhood moments: sibling beefs at home and KGB opening up about his son’s need to be heard sparking a deeper conversation about truly paying attention to our kids. Aldo shares how his parenting style shifted once his kids hit puberty, while the crew digs into the pros and cons of kids having devices, internet access, and how boredom (or the lack of it) shapes them. The Dads also talk setting boundaries with tech, teaching street smarts in an AI-heavy world, and finding balance in a generation moving fast.  The episode closes with Aldo showing love to Father Hoods as more than a podcast calling it a real community where dads can show up, share openly, and be fathers first, titles second. What You’ll Hear in This Episode: [00:04:23] Sibling Saga [00:09:20] Fatherhood Circle [00:15:40] Rivalry Realness [00:21:55] Teenage Trials [00:27:23] Screen Time Rules [00:33:55] No-Tech Mode [00:40:36] Raising Streetwise Kids Why Hit Play: Fatherhood raw and unfiltered!

    Dad First, Celebrity Second feat. The Kid Mero

    BACK WITH A BANGER! This week, the Father Hoods squad links up with none other than The Kid Mero—comedian, writer, Bronx-bred Dominican dad of four, and all-around wild storyteller. From back-to-back diaper duty to riding in beach chairs as seats in minivans with his own pops, Mero breaks down the madness of raising kids back then and now. The host of 7 PM in Brooklyn keeps it raw about fatherhood, remembering the shock of becoming a young Dad, leaving his job to go full-time Dad, and even keeping it 100 with his kids about medicinal marijuana. Mero doesn’t sugarcoat, whether it’s talking about how his kids see him in the public eye or how he’d handle it if they ever tested the same boundaries he once did. From hosting/writing/producing shows to cheering on his kids’ athletic dreams, Mero reminds us that being a Dad is about showing up, holding it down, and keeping it a stack no matter what. This one’s packed with laughs, gems, and that unfiltered Bronx energy only Mero can bring!

    The Father Hoods are finally back with a fresh episode and zero filler! The Dads kick things off talking about their new recording setups before DJ EFN jumps straight into dad-life chaos: the whole family getting sick again, missing the icy school pickup, and surviving a full-blown meltdown in the car. From there, he also opens up about feeling like he spends less time with his daughter, sparking real talk about guilt, balance, and doing the best you can when life doesn’t slow down. The crew also digs into routines, structure, and why switching things up is key to building new memories as the kids grow. Manny reflects on how the house feels different now that his oldest daughter is away at college, while KGB talks about his son in 7th grade and missing earlier chapters of fatherhood. Things take a deeper turn when DJ EFN shares a powerful piece, “A Man’s Journey with His Father,” hitting the trio right in the chest and bringing real emotion into the room.  The episode closes with reflections on how fast life changes, how technology might help Dads cope, and Manny delivering a sad story about aging, church, and adult diapers.
