Welcome to the Dads Who Mosh Podcast!

This week, Nate and Jesse are joined by Joe Musten (Advent, Beloved). The dads talk about the state of the scene in North Carolina and how Advent is among a whole list of hardcore bands that continue to shape the scene.

Joe also shares stories about touring, the impact that Beloved has had on people, Furnace Fest, and almost getting into fights at shows with other bands on the lineup.

The dads also talk about how being a dad and a son or daughter requires a ton of grace. Parents don't have it all figured out, and you really start to understand that when you become a parent yourself. The best we can hope for is to be the best we can possibly be for our kids.

Additions to the Dads Who Mosh Playlist:

Joe - "Anchor" by Turmoil

Jesse - "Hey John, What's Your Name Again?" by The Devil Wears Prada

Nate - "Calling Hours" by Bane

Welcome to the Dads Who Mosh Podcast!

This week, Jesse recaps Warped Tour in Long Beach! The vibes, the bands, the people there, were all great and made for a great weekend.

Later, the moshing debates continue as the guys talk "rowboats" in mosh pits, the level of skill required for a circle pits, and bands calling out moshers during shows.

The dads also discuss how dad life can often be very much like the punk/hardcore scene. Dads today have to choose to go against the grain, and put aside the self-serving nature of our current culture, and do things that don't make sense to a lot of people around us who don't have families to take care of. No matter what we give up to help raise our families, we wouldn't trade it for the world!

Welcome to the Dads Who Mosh Podcast!

This week, Nate and Jesse are joined by a very special guest, Jay from Bayway!

Jay hops onto the podcast while on the road with No Cure, Big Ass Truck and Boltcutter. The guys talk about live shows, the energy that Bayway brings to each tour, despite often being the "odd duck" on the ticket. Jay also talks about Hellfest, and how the payoff after months of planning and re-planning was so huge and those who made it this past year know how special of a time it was.

As a dad, Jay has made some major decisions for the benefit of his family, including making the decision to get sober, almost three years ago now. It's not an easy thing to switch from "Jay from Bayway Mode" while on tour, fronting a hardcore band, to "Dad Mode" when he gets home to mulch the lawn and get the backyard ready for graduation parties, but Jay's here for every minute of it.

At the end, Jay makes his honorary addition to the Dads Who Mosh Playlist with the song "Anger" by Downset.

This was a very special episode for us, and we hope you have as much fun listening to it as we had recording it.

Welcome to the Dads Who Mosh Podcast!

This week, Jesse and Nate are back from their family summer vacations! The dads talk vacations, visiting family, and road trips. They also discuss the reviewing hardcore releases and albums, and whether critic reviews are helpful, or if it's too hard to put some sort of a "grade" on a form of art that can be completely subjective.

The guys also go over the differences between introverts and extroverts, and how dads can be both, although putting labels on people is usually not helpful. One thing is for sure, both introverts and extroverts can be secretly dealing with emotional or mental issues, so be sure to check in on all of your friends, no matter what they're like!

Welcome to the Dads Who Mosh Podcast!

This week, Jesse and Nate talk about Jesse's love for beatdown, swim meets in Tucson and a pointless story about an old lady that Nate used to know.

The dads also talk about how when it comes to men's mental health, it's not just talking and not just action that helps guys, but it's both. Guys need to be able to freely talk about how they're feeling and what they're going through, but we usually need something to actually do as well.

Podcast Info

Welcome to the Dads Who Mosh Podcast!

This week, the dads are joined by Jon Gustin, better known as The Tired Dad. What started off as humorous social media posts about the struggles of dad-hood has now grown into a full blown movement with hundreds of videos, over a million followers and a new book. Jon’s openness and honesty are an encouragement to dads to take their mental health seriously, be willing to lay down their ego, and understand that in this day and age, dads are asked to do so much more than ever before, and if you’re showing up, and you’re tired, that means you’re doing it right. 

Jon, Nate and Jesse talk about lessons we’ve learned from dad-hood, the joys of watching our kids grow up and sobriety. The guys also cover the magic of music that came out in the late 90’s, early 00’s and the impact of nu-metal and grunge on heavy music today, as well as “moshing” at home with our kids. We also hear the super cool story of how Jon connected with legendary actor, Josh Brolin.
