Modern Dadhood | Unpacking Fatherhood + Parenting for Dads (and Moms!)

Being Cool With Not Being Cool Anymore | Chris Gethard on Fatherhood, Being Lame


Listen Later

[This is part 2 of a 2 part conversation]  In "The Lonely Dad Conversations," comedian Chris Gethard interviews a dozen dads to explore commonalities between their fatherhood journeys. What he finds, is that, plain and simple, when we become dads, we turn pretty lame. That's not to say that becoming a parent isn't an amazing, powerful, and positive life change, but think about it... are you as cool as you used to be before you had kids? Me neither. Chris joins us to laugh, ponder, and dissect some of the recurring themes in "The Lonely Dad Conversations."

In Episode 84 of Modern Dadhood, the guys quickly recap Easter and Adam asks Marc to kindly share some compliments about his wife, before returning to Part 2 of their conversation with Chris Gethard. Chris is promoting his new book on Scribd called "The Lonely Dad Conversations," and the guys ask him about some of the recurring themes that pop up in the book, including:

•  How dads are like "backseat passengers"
•  How the baby boomer generation are different dads than we are
•  The role of your social life when you become a dad
•  Our kids observing our screen time
•  And More!

Before closing out the 'sode, Adam and Marc share a quick round of "Kisses and Disses" inspired by recent podcast reviews. Leave a review for the show and you, too, could be featured in an upcoming segment!
