Only now are are seeing the effects of  40 years of privatized, free-market education  combined with a growing beaurcpatic quagmire pitting politicians against unions and unions against teachers, with parents caught smack-dab  in the middle.  All of which culminates in the devaluation of the one thing the United States holds so dear; it's children...Take THAT! Mr McKinley my AP Modern European History teacher from 20-30 year ago.  What's that? A run on? Poor premise? Damnit! Mike and Pete get into it.

Education Deflation: Are Schools Failing Kids? - #86

Dad and Buried is a podcast about parenting from a couple of guys who hate parenting. Don't get them wrong, they love their kids - to different degrees, depending on the day (and the kid) - but being a parent is tough, time-consuming, stressful, thankless, expensive, exhausting, largely unrewarding, really loud, often quite boring - did I say expensive yet?,or thankless? - emotionally draining work. Join Mike and Pete as they mock children, bash parenting, and talk about the stuff that most parents don't usually talk about. At least not out loud.

Kids & Family

Take a trip to paradise with the Burieds as they tell you all about the amazing vacation they took to the Paradisus Cancun! Mom and Dad and Buried partnered with the all-inclusive resort where they took advantage of the beautiful beaches, multiple pools, and bottomless drinks-- because they brought their kids along too. 

The Burieds in Paradise

The Dad and Buried Podcast returns with Dad and Buried and Mom and Buried, who kick off a new season of the show with a recap of what they’ve been up to - a surprisingly fun trip to Disney World, a first grader losing his teeth, an almost-teen gaining an attitude - and what is in store for the rest of the summer - a vacation in paradise, life with a new teenager, and a much-needed cleaning of the junk drawer. Welcome back! Please pardon the swears—12yos are a pain in the ass!

Are you the best parent you can be? (oof) - #119 | Dad & Buried

Ahh Christmas. The holiday that tries to be one thing but ultimately is about another.  Parents seem to fall into two camps; those who listened attentively to their spouse and kids throughout the year and bought all presents by November 1st and those of us who now blame lack of presents on "supply chain issues." There are those that give physical gifts and and those that give experiences. In Mike's case he was able to give his wife heather both! When he gave her a physical gift of a dehumidifier, he also gave her the experience gift of sheer disappointment. Mike can really sit and spin on this one. Listen as Mike and Heather get into it. In this very special Christmas gift giving episode. Enjoy!

The Art & Science of Giving Gifts this Holiday Season - #118 | Dad & Buried

Let me drop a little math on you; Holidays = In-laws. Boom. Bam. Move over Hawking. Thanks Newton, but I'm good. I just proved the transient property of how your In-Laws WILL show up at your house for holidays. [Nasal voice} "But we normally go to them." Whatever dude, Math isn't an exact science, everyone knows that. Here's the point: you can't have the holidays without the In Laws. For better or worse it' just  a fact and I just "mathed" it. You know who else "mathed" it? Mike and Pete who get all kinds of up in it. Sound gross? it is. Enjoy!
