Dadville with Dave Barnes and Jon McLaughlin

Listen in for a comedic dive into the chaotic circus of technology and family life takes center stage as our guest discusses how to balance it all. Joey Odom founded a company called Aro, which helps parents to be more intentional away from your phone. They tackle the universal truth that constant connectivity often means we're "disconnected" from what really matters—like catching your kid's epic soccer goal because you were too busy arguing with autocorrect. Joey recounts his own cringe-worthy moment: missing his son’s first goal while chasing a “must-read” meme on his phone. It’s the kind of story that makes you want to uninstall every app ever invented—except maybe the one that orders pizza.

They didn't solve all the problems in this episode—but they got close. This week Dave and Jon finally give the people what they want: Two middle-aged dads just talking about life as touring dad, when to let your kids have a phone (or social media), and why running only 3 miles can be viewed as a cop out (sorry, Jon.)

Quite a bit has happened with Mike Donehey since his last visit to Dadville.  As a father of four girls, Mike has come to grips with the fact that at any moment someone in his house is crying and someone else is laughing. He also talks about what lead the re-forming of 10th Avenue North—with all new members. (Sorry, there's no real drama there.) This is an incredible episode that talks about work/life balance, dealing with your kids' mental health, and when to "overshare."
