    IDS #321 - Just Put That Anywhere - The Best of Volume 6

    Send us Fan Mail Six years of Irritable Dad Syndrome. Hundreds of arguments, questionable observations, fast-food encounters, marital grievances, Kroger incidents, and stories that really didn’t need to be told publicly. And now we’ve gathered the best of Year 6 into one episode. In The Best of Volume 6, revisit Darin's painfully patient attempt to buy two strawberry pies from a Popeyes employee, Mike being interrogated by a stranger at Kroger about his choice of crinkle-cut fries, and the discussion that somehow turns the entire cereal aisle into a spectrum ranging from sexual repression to Fruity Pebbles.  You'll also hear Darin seek Mike's expert marriage counseling after Libby wears his good David Letterman hat outside, Mike explain why his wife was absolutely NOT allowed to remove a sticker from his pristine U2 concert program, and Darin's Thanksgiving encounter with a Tennessee state trooper who simply wanted him to “do better.”  And then there's “Just put that anywhere”—a stupid little phrase that escaped the podcast, infected their wives and children, and will someday follow Mike and Darin all the way into the nursing home. If you're a longtime listener, these are some of the moments that made Year 6 special. If you're new to Irritable Dad Syndrome, this is probably the worst possible introduction to Mike and Darin. Which makes it the perfect place to start.

    IDS #320 - Give Me Back My Pool Noodle! - Rejiggered

    Send us Fan Mail The pool noodle is back... and so is one of the funniest episodes of Irritable Dad Syndrome. This is "Give Me Back My Pool Noodle! – Rejiggered," a newly expanded and updated version of one of our favorite prior episodes. We've taken the original recording, cleaned it up, added new material, tightened the pacing, and made it even better while preserving everything that made the original so much fun. The infamous Devo eye saga returns—this time with medical clarity, fewer false accusations, and plenty of opportunities to laugh at Darin's spectacular overreaction. Mike and Darin also revisit the origins of one of the show's recurring segments, where everyday annoyances are put on trial to determine whether they're truly ridiculous... or simply another case of Irritable Dad Syndrome. Throw in goat yoga fallout, ongoing confusion about farm animal sound effects, and the usual collection of everyday frustrations spiraling into comedy, and you've got a refreshed version of a classic IDS episode. Topics include:  Expanded and updated edition of "Give Me Back My Pool Noodle!"  Follow-up to the Devo eye incident  Medical clarification and apology  Everyday annoyances turned into comedy  Launch of a new dad-judgment segment  Goat yoga aftermath  Farm animal sound effect confusion Whether you're discovering this episode for the first time or revisiting a longtime favorite, "Give Me Back My Pool Noodle! – Rejiggered" gives one of the earliest Irritable Dad Syndrome classics the upgrade it deserves. #IrritableDadSyndrome #ComedyPodcast #DadHumor #FunnyPodcast #PodcastComedy #GenX #RelatableHumor #StorytellingPodcast #GoatYoga #Devo #Comedy #EverydayLife #Podcast Support the show Thank you so much for listening to this episode!  If you like what we do, please check out our other content!
