Irritable Dad Syndrome

Send us Fan Mail

Shopping at TJ Maxx should be simple—but somehow it never is. Mike and Darin unpack questionable clothing, retail chaos, and the mysterious journey items take before ending up on those racks.

They also talk Record Store Day, extended warranties, and the bizarre consumer decisions companies expect us to make without asking questions.

If you’ve ever left a store more confused than when you walked in, this episode is for you.

Mike and Darin start this episode on a serious note, wishing well to a friend who survived a major car accident—then immediately imagine a future where he now has a vibranium ankle.

From there, the conversation drifts into Conway Twitty, music nostalgia, cars, homeownership, and the weird things our brains choose to remember forever. It’s heartfelt, ridiculous, and very on-brand.

This episode is a perfect example of how Irritable Dad Syndrome balances real life with total nonsense.

It’s a milestone episode, and Mike and Darin celebrate the only way they know how: by talking about Ghostbusters, the solar eclipse, and things people probably shouldn’t argue about as much as they do.

The guys break down eclipse madness, pop culture sacred cows, and why some movies (and memories) deserve to be left alone. There’s also a little philosophy, a little nostalgia, and a lot of laughs.

A fun, loose episode that perfectly captures the spirit of Irritable Dad Syndrome.

Mike sounds exactly like the sandworms in Dune: Part Two

There's a website about bent carrots and it's not really about bent carrots, if you know what I mean

Catan has taken over Darin's house and it's causing some serious family feuds!

Ever wondered the right way to hold a potato? Yeah, us too.

Darin spills about another cringe-worthy standup comedy experience while Mike dares to compare Taylor Swift to Tool. Give this episode a listen... and then replay it with a buddy.

If you're up for it, grab an Irritable Dad Syndrome tee at www.irritabledadsyndrome.com. We'd appreciate it!
