The Dad Tapes
Two guys. Two cousins. Two best friends. Most importantly, two fathers. Both have vastly different experiences, differing backgrounds, points of views, hobbies and careers. With our box of tapes, we're looking to create and educational and vulnerable platform for parents alike, with both hosts sharing stories, experiences and takes on a subject without it coming across like you, the listener, are being coached on "how you're doing this wrong" or "you need to do it how we tell you to do it". Instead, we share our stories in hopes others can gain from them without being told how to interpret what you hear. We're not experts. We're not preaching. We're just discussing one on one with each other growing our own bond in hopes that our growth will allow others to grow too. These are our Dad Tapes.
The Dad Tapes
Okay, Boomer
The Dads both crack open another Bonesaw Brewing Company, which is located in Glasboro, NJ. Tonight's drink is the Silver Queen, which is a Golden Ale and has a 4.7% ABV. The show then progresses to the weekly catch-up, where Josh talks about a slow week with no Addi. Meanwhile, Rich talks about a bad week due to illnesses through the house.
The show then transitions to An Aware Dad, with a reading from 'The Daily Dad', written by Ryan Holiday. Tonight's reading was titled January 18, Teach Them To Be Particular. Be sure to listen to this week's insightful reading. The show then progresses to the topic of the week.
Be it a boomer or be it a Gen Alpha, we all have almost heard the term “Okay, Boomer” used to dismiss or mock an elder typically in response to some unwanted advice or comment that wasn’t needed. For instance, if an elder says “Millennials expect life to be so easy for them”, it would be most likely met with an “okay, boomer” remark. Tonight, we’re going to delve into the generational differences and what may be the catalyst for those differences, as well as our own experiences and run-ins with “okay, boomers”.
After an exchange of some in-depth conversation and questions, the show progresses to their "Shit-uations". Tonight's Shit-uations has Josh reading blurbs from FML.com.
