    DOD133: More Like Harrison BUTTker

    DOD133: More Like Harrison BUTTker

    The dads listen to the recent commencement speech from Harrison Butker that is way more inside Catholic baseball than they expected, but also Eli disturbingly understands every single reference. Are women people? Should they be allowed to vote and have jobs? This sentient mayonnaise has opinions.

    DOD131: Hey Kid, Here's Some Shitty Lemons

    DOD131: Hey Kid, Here's Some Shitty Lemons

    Thomas shares some medical news for one of the Smith kids, and the dads chat about how to show up for your child, and talk to them, in tough situations that aren't their choice, especially if you carry your own personal history and experiences with that same diagnosis. A great conversation all around and a couple of admissions that Tom's take...is...right?

    DOD130: Grieving Exes Hold Hands. The Dads Debate.

    DOD130: Grieving Exes Hold Hands. The Dads Debate.

    On r/AmItheAsshole, a woman shares a moment she had with her ex-husband at their child's funeral and the subsequent reaction from his new wife. In seeking comfort, who do you turn to, and what boundaries do you have with others as your dynamic with them changes? We'll just say...the guys do not see eye to eye on this one.

    DOD129: Easy Kids vs Tough Kids

    If you're a parent of more than one child, chances are you have 1 or more kids who are super easy and chill, and 1 or more kids who is... not. How do we handle that? What's going on there? The dads discuss, and they NAME NAMES.

    DOD128: The Age of Nonconsensual Deepfakes

    DOD128: The Age of Nonconsensual Deepfakes

    AI technology is advancing ridiculously quickly. Some day, if not today, AI image generators will be able to create incredibly realistic pornographic photos and video of... anyone. Including children. So, what are our responsibilities as dads? Is it possible to make this technology safe for our kids, and if it isn't, who bears responsibility for that?
    Also, little easter egg: only patrons will know what the constant noise in Tom's background is. You need to have heard the April 2024 bonus to be in the know!
