It’s the end of the year and Tell Me About Your Father is honoring the best and worst of the patriarchy in 2021 with our 785th Annual Daddy Awards. For those of you who haven’t remembered to tune in the past 784th years, The Daddy Awards honors the heroes who have helped undo the doing of toxic masculinity by displaying big boss energy tempered by compassion, vulnerability, or intelligence, and the zeroes who were infuriating, cruel or just a massive disappointment. This year’s nominees all brought something to the table, whether it was the astonishing entitlement and delusions of wilted Italian rose and former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, Alec Baldwin’s phenomenal ego and distorted sense of anything and everything, or Jeff Bezos’ pathetic dick rocket trips to the edge of space to impress alive girl. But there were also the men who reminded us there is always hope, kindness and help, including reformed asshole Mandy Patinkin who is healing the world with his TikTok, gentle new-age angel Sufjan Stevens, and America’s power bottom Lil Nas X, who gave Satan a lap dance and didn’t look back. And Britney Spears was finally freed. Listen as we highlight the highs and lows of Dad culture in 2021, and welcome special guests Don Draper, John Travolta, Sean Penn and more.
