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
Theo Vonn Once Said...
This week the Dads crack open a Lawson's Finest Liquids, which is located in Waistfield, VT and it's their Sip of Sunshine which is an IPA and has a 8.0% ABV. With both dads agreeing they can taste the sunshine in this IPA, the show then transitions to the weekly catch-up. Rich talks a lot about work and the toughest transitions in the new gig, meanwhile Josh shares some heart-wrenching news about his uncle.
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 23, You Gotta Live Up To It. Be sure to listen to this week's insightful reading. The show then progresses to the topic of the week.
Resolutions. Changes. Goals, Tired of the same ol’ same ol’. We’ve all said we want change, or need change, but most of us don’t do the important things to enable that change. In almost every situation, you’re able to enact that change by being the change but when you don’t empower that change by being the change, then nothing changes. Tonight, we’re going to talk about when nothing changes, if nothing changes.
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.
