Jesse and Nate talk all things hardcore music and the scene, as well as being dads.

The dads kick this episode off airing their beef with XM Sirius radio and "heavy" music stations. Jesse shows off his new tattoo (shoutout to Dave Quiggle!), and the guys chat about the upcoming Sleeping Giant reunion show, Desmadre going on tour, bands who are gimmick-y and the sacrifice of skipping a show for more important things in life (and yes, there are some).

Jesse hits us with the life-changing idea of NOT bringing your phone to shows and instead just experiencing the moment. Along those lines, the guys talk about their kids growing up with smartphones and all of the benefits, as well as risks that come along with that.

Welcome back to the Dads Who Mosh Podcast! In this episode, Jesse and Nate get their first look at the lineup for Sound and Fury 2026! The dads also swap recent show stories and talk about bands like Poison the Well and Converge, that we'll defend until we die, no matter how good their new material is.

They also look back on Furnace Fest and try to anticipate what the future of the festival will look like after being sold to a major festival company (and pray that it hasn't been sold to Kid Rock).

Nate survived Furnace Fest and has some stories to tell! From the blistering Knocked Loose Main Stage set, to the emotional finale of Petey USA's Pond Stage set, to the beautiful mayhem that was every set on the Shed Stage, Nate recounts his magical weekend at Furnace Fest.

In this episode of Dads Who Mosh, Nate recaps the Terror show and how weird Spirit World is. He also goes over how Take Off Your Pants and Jacket by Blink-182 is a perfect album, and then talks about the impact that spiritual abuse can have on people and mentions Holy Hurt by Hillary L. McBride.

In this episode, Nate talks about the Poison the Well tour and how it's bringing together the old and the new generation of hardcore kids. Also, the lineup for Within These Walls at The Nile in Mesa is STACKED!

In the last episode, we talked about how guys need to have a lighthouse - this week we talk about the impact it can have on us to miss our lighthouse during the week and struggle on without that point of contact.

Finally, Nate complains a little bit about how much the American dream costs nowadays, but that just makes the moms and dads out there who are working hard every day mean even more.

In this week's episode, Nate goes over the STACKED lineup for Furnace Fest. Also, anniversary shows where bands play an album front to back - are they good or kinda lame?

This week's perfect album review is Black Mile to the Surface by Manchester Orchestra.

Nate also talks about how guys need to have a "lighthouse" every week, something that no matter how tough the week gets, they know that they can look forward to that, and that they will have a place where they can find some relief from the craziness of life.

In this episode, Nate's good friend Jake calls in from Melbourne, Australia. The guys get very real about the feelings that dads can go through and how even though those feelings may be wrong, or come from believing things that aren't true, the feelings themselves can be very real. A real man isn't someone who never feels these negative things, but is someone who overcomes them and keep fighting for their family. One of the best things to do is find someone you can talk to about these things. Also, Nate and Jake decide that the new Architects album is already internationally recognized as the Album of the Year.

In this episode:

• Is the Warped Tour lineup really worth going to?
• What is the greatest hardcore album of all time, and why is it probably Long Live by The Chariot?
• Why is being sober so scary sometimes?

All that and more in this week's edition of the Dads Who Mosh Podcast!

In this week's episode, Nate kicks off a new segment where he lists what he thinks are "perfect" albums by going over Brand New's "The Devil and God are Raging Inside Me".

He also goes further into the heart behind this podcast and Dads Who Mosh. Life out there can be tough for guys who are trying their best, and we all need to be there for each other.
