This podcast is all about dad life or as I like to call it the DADHOOD. We're not just talking about diaper changing and carpooling—we're talking about the real-life, authentic experiences that make us who we are. In these episodes you will hear from industry experts and every type of dad sharing their experiences and stories to help you become the best man and dad possible. I believe it's important for dads to have a space to be open and honest about what it means to be their true selves. Welcome my friends to the DADHOOD!
