    IDS #291 - Chicken Worth Lickin'

    In this hilarious episode of Irritable Dad Syndrome — a comedy podcast about dads, parenting, pop culture, and guess-what-happened-next stories — Mike and Darin dive head-first into real-world chaos and absurdity. Mike shares the painfully funny saga of how he pulled his back wiping his butt, complete with all the awkward details you’d expect from a show dedicated to unapologetically adult humor. Meanwhile, a dedicated fan’s poem about belts gets read on air, and Darin reveals why he was sprinting through his neighborhood in 12-degree weather wearing flip-flops, shorts, and a hatchet — because, of course, reasons. Throughout the episode, the guys riff on pop culture mishaps, historical wardrobe blunders, and stories every dad (and anyone who’s ever regretted a decision) can relate to. If you love comedy podcasts about everyday frustrations, ridiculous dad moments, and unfiltered laughter, this episode will have you laughing out loud. 👉 Dive into the chaos and subscribe for more weekly laughs from Irritable Dad Syndrome. #ComedyPodcast #DadHumor #ParentingComedy #EmbarrassingDad #RealLifeComedy #DadLife #AdultHumor Support the show Thank you so much for listening to this episode!

    IDS #290 - Smell My Finger

    Start the year with a laugh in this episode of Irritable Dad Syndrome, the comedy podcast that turns mundane life into laugh-out-loud storytelling. Mike and Darin kick things off with a special tribute to filmmaker Rob Reiner, sharing memories and jokes that honor his legacy in classic dad-culture style. Then things take a turn for the absurd when Mike forgets his belt and somehow blames Darin — because nothing says comedy like putting your pants on backwards. Darin goes on a quest for CBD balm and returns with opinions stronger than the stuff itself, while Wompers promises a chance to win a year’s supply of free hot dogs (no, really). The guys sprinkle in spicy commentary about movie lore, legendary directors, and why dads think they know more than the experts. Whether you’re into comedy podcasts filled with dad humor, pop culture references, and unfiltered banter, this episode delivers plenty of laughs and relatable moments straight from the front lines of modern parenting.

    IDS #289 - How Do You Smoke a Beer?

    Welcome to one of the funniest episodes yet of Irritable Dad Syndrome, the comedy podcast where everyday absurdity becomes storytelling gold. This week, Mike may—or may not—have played Call of Duty with Sylvester the Cat (yes, really), while Darin recounts his kids’ bizarre issues with dish rags that seem more complicated than rocket science. The duo also takes a dive into the good ol’ days of drinking Zima, mixing nostalgia, questionable decisions, and plenty of laughs. Guest host Dave Lay joins the fun, and the group reminisces, debates, and questions everything from classic beverages to generational weirdness. If you love comedy podcasts that mix dad humor, pop culture misadventures, and stories that go off the rails in all the right ways, this episode is a must-listen. Laugh along as the guys break down what it means to be an irritable dad in a world full of confusing kids, confusing beverages, and even more confusing life choices. #ComedyPodcast #DadHumor #NostalgiaPodcast #90sCulture #PopCultureComedy #ParentingHumor #AdultComedy Support the show Thank you so much for listening to this episode!

    IDS #288 - Eat Your Christmas Butter!

    Get festive and funny with this holiday special episode of Irritable Dad Syndrome — the comedy podcast that tackles family madness, weird traditions, and the true meaning of holiday chaos. Mike and Darin explore questions we all secretly ask ourselves: Is it okay to use multiple rolls of the same wrapping paper? Have crazy uncles with fireworks ever taken your Christmas to the next level? And has anyone actually witnessed a conga line over a waterbed? If not, they have now. With guest appearances and holiday hijinks, the crew delivers stories that hit right between nostalgia and “did that really happen?” From pop culture references to gloriously chaotic family gatherings, this episode is packed with laughs for anyone who’s ever survived (or contributed to) a holiday dinner disaster. Tune in for a blend of comedy and heart, and let Irritable Dad Syndrome be your soundtrack for surviving the season with a smile. #HolidayComedy #ComedyPodcast #ChristmasChaos #FamilyHumor #DadPodcast #HolidayParenting #FestiveComedy Support the show Thank you so much for listening to this episode!

    IDS #287 - Frank's Deer Urine Black Friday Sale

    This week on Irritable Dad Syndrome — the comedy podcast where no topic is too weird and no story is too ridiculous — Mike and Darin talk about everything from retirement home dread to door-to-door salesperson regrets. Darin kicks things off by clearly crying for help before his family hauls him off to the retirement home, proving once again that dad life has no off-switch. Mike learned the hard way what happens when you don’t say no to every random salesman who knocks — including the unforgettable saga of Frank’s Deer Urine and Crowder’s Vac and Gun Shop. The guys recorded this one with a brand-new audio board, and trust us — you’ll hear every hilarious detail. Whether you’re into comedy podcasts with outrageous stories, dad humor that hits home, or just love laughing at life’s absurdities, this episode delivers.

    IDS #286 - I'm Not Afraid of Bacon

    In this episode of Irritable Dad Syndrome, the comedy podcast for parents who argue about everything, Mike and Darin tackle one of the most divisive topics imaginable — bacon. From food opinions that should not cause conflict (but absolutely do) to pop culture tangents and everyday parenting frustrations, the episode is packed with laughs and strong, unnecessary convictions. The guys also share stories about family dynamics, irrational preferences, and the confidence dads bring to opinions no one asked for. It’s a perfect mix of food debates, pop culture commentary, and classic IDS chaos. If you love dad humor, comedy podcasts about parenting, and arguments that escalate for no good reason, this episode delivers from start to finish. #ComedyPodcast #DadHumor #FoodArguments #ParentingPodcast #PopCultureComedy Support the show Thank you so much for listening to this episode!

    IDS #285 - A Piece of Toilet Paper and a Dream

    This episode of Irritable Dad Syndrome, the comedy podcast about dads and parenting chaos, centers on ambition, poor planning, and extremely low odds of success. Mike and Darin share stories about moments when optimism wildly outpaced reality — including parenting decisions, everyday problem-solving, and situations that hinged on hope rather than logic. The conversation highlights the universal dad experience of thinking, “This might work,” despite all evidence to the contrary. With sharp humor and relatable frustration, the episode turns minor disasters into comedy gold. If you like parenting podcasts with adult humor, real-life failures, and stories that feel painfully familiar, this episode is right in the Irritable Dad Syndrome sweet spot. #ComedyPodcast #DadHumor #ParentingFails #RealLifeComedy #AdultHumor Support the show Thank you so much for listening to this episode!

    IDS #284 - The Adventures of Crickett and Tabbs

    In this episode of Irritable Dad Syndrome, the comedy podcast that thrives on long-running bits and ridiculous storytelling, Mike and Darin continue the ongoing saga of Crickett and Tabbs. What starts as a simple narrative quickly turns into an over-complicated, absurd adventure fueled by imagination, callbacks, and escalating nonsense. The guys lean fully into character comedy, building a story that only gets stranger the longer it goes. Along the way, they riff on parenting, responsibility, and the questionable logic that makes sense only in the moment — especially to dads who are way too committed to a bit. If you enjoy comedy podcasts with recurring characters, improvised storytelling, and dad humor that refuses to quit, this episode delivers laughs for longtime fans and new listeners alike. #ComedyPodcast #StorytellingComedy #DadHumor #CharacterComedy #AdultPodcast Support the show Thank you so much for listening to this episode!
