  • Daddying | Go To Bed?

    On today's hilarious inaugural episode of Daddying, we focus on the conundrum that is getting your child to sleep by answering the question 'should you let your child stay up on New Year's eve?' We detail the potential issues with letting your child stay awake too long, the magical capabilities of a car ride and whether or not you should let your child sleep in your bed (hint: you shouldn't).

  • BLP 096 | The Rainforest Test

    Markus hit the groupchat with a personality test. We bring the personality test to the pod. Hilarity ensues. Alex gives you the background and explanation of the test before we get into it. What do our answers reveal about ourselves? Why did we make the choices we did? Do we believe the answers match who really are? All of that plus Bryan skinned a cow, Markus slept with his dog and Alex sells an animal to a stranger.

  • Bonus | The Capitol

    On today's unfortunate bonus episode, we have a passionate, nuanced conversation centered around the events of January 6th 2021. We begin by discussing our initial reactions to the violence, the President's role in the chaos, and how people become radicalized. Bryan uses his military knowledge to school us on the problems with law enforcement's presence at the Capitol, Alex breaks down links between law enforcement and White Supremacists, and Markus opens up about how political ideologies have complicated friendships.
