The entire reason Brian Bates became a father was to be on this episode. With his life goals fully realized he joined the fellas to complete the circle. Since he also co-hosts the Nateland podcast with Nate Bargatze he feels comfortable being this close to comedic genius. Listen in as Brian tells an inspiring story about becoming a father in your 50s, the fine line between self-depreciation and sadness, and the time in little league he stole two bases in one play and gained nothing.

Glen Henry "Beleaf in Fatherhood": I Didn't Know Adults Had Fun?

It all started with a somewhat blind double date. The story of Chris and Lauren Tomlin is one for the ages. It's definitely not a straight line, but it continues in the best possible way. From Lauren's motto of "Ready, Fire, Aim," to their children asking Chris if he could help facilitate songwriting advice, this episode is an all-timer.
