Dadward Spiral

In their final episode of the year, Eddie and Aaron delve into the holiday traditions that made up their childhood. Some of them had remained in tact after all these years while new ones have made their way into each man's life to build new memories within their own families. Christmas, Hanukkah, Thanksgiving, New Years, and even Passover make an appearance here. 2020 has been a rough go but we hope you have a wonderful holiday season. Here's to brighter days, soon enough.

Aaron and Eddie are joined by Kether Donohue who's best known for her performance as Lindsey in FX's You're the Worst. More importantly, she's the first female guest to enter the Dadward Spiral. In this episode, Kether and Eddie bond over being raised by Vietnam War vets and the heartbreaking damage Agent Orange did to their fathers. We discuss how secondary PTSD can impact us as children and adults and dig into Kether's new CBS sitcom B Positive, and the real issue of renal failure and kidney dialysis many Americans deal with on a daily basis. As per usual, we go deep and even though there are sound issues throughout the episode, this one was a profoundly satisfying one to record.
