Becoming a parent is one of life’s greatest gifts, yet it can also be stressful, exhausting, and extremely isolating... but YOU ARE NOT ALONE. This podcast was built on the belief that the best way to build community is by digging in and getting honest with ourselves. This is not a place for advice as much as it’s about finding connection with other parents (no matter your gender) who know exactly what you’re going through. Yes, this is a parenting podcast; and while we do discuss issues that revolve around life with kids, we focus more on the life of a human... who happens to be a parent, and how to balance the multitude of hats we wear on a daily basis while attempting to be the best version of ourselves for our partner, our children, and our own personal well-being.
// DILF is a top parenting podcast which has broken into Apple's Top 50 Parenting Podcast charts around the world, while recently hitting #6 on the US charts :: To join in on the conversation, find us on Instagram @DILFpodcast //

Boundaries (DILF's Co-Parenting Series)
DILF (Dad I'd Like To Friend)
08/27/20 • 36 min
As a podcast created to learn more about the world of #parenting & one that often asks others to delve deep into their relationship with their kids and their partners, it’s only fair that our host does the same for time-to-time... which is one of the motivations behind DILF's Co-Parenting Series where Kevin invites on his beautiful wife Laura to discuss any issues they might be dealing with in their #coparenting relationship - whether it has to do with their child or their relationship with one another.
Luckily it’s become a popular series amongst our listeners and has seemed to be helpful tool for others in their own relationships. So, if you are new to the podcast or this co-parenting series (which is basically our version of #couplestherapy), buckle in as Kevin welcomes back his wife/co-parent for an honest + vulnerable conversation on the importance of healthy boundaries... and his wife's self-confessed lack of any!
This is the third installment of DILF's Co-Parenting Series...

Connection (DILF's Co-Parenting Series)
DILF (Dad I'd Like To Friend)
04/23/20 • 33 min
Let’s just call it out - finding ways to CONNECT with another human being is not always easy, but sustaining a true connection with your partner once the weight and responsibilities of children have entered the picture can be especially difficult.
In this episode, Kevin once again welcomes his wife, Laura Seldon to discuss strategies on how to stay connected post-kids, while exploring the following controversial theory:
What if we were to think of this pandemic as less of a catastrophe that created major problems in the world, and more of a beacon that shined a bright spotlight on already existing problems throughout the globe, and for many of us... in our own homes. If we can find ways to be our best selves and work to form true connections with our partners during all this chaos, then we can survive anything — it's atleast worth exploring...

Acknowledgement (DILF's Co-Parenting Series)
DILF (Dad I'd Like To Friend)
02/20/20 • 34 min
In the first episode of DILF's Co-Parenting Series, we delve into some familiar territory for most parents...
A few weeks back, my wife and I were in the middle of an argument when I realized that WHAT we were actually fighting about had nothing to do with the situation before us or the words coming out of our mouths. We were each angry about other unresolved issues in our relationship and simply using this random argument to vent frustrations without actually addressing the true issue at hand... and it was beginning to impact the environment in which we raise our child.
We were in a vicious cycle... and it wasn't about a lack of love, it was remnants from past feelings that had yet to be resolved and simply lingered silently, growing momentum within us in a way that could slowly poison any relationship but especially dangerous for the often strained relationship between co-parents... and this made me think of a topic I’ve been working on a lot lately: A simple concept to some, yet revolutionary to others: ACKNOWLEDGMENT... one of the best ways I have found to gain resolution and put the past behind us.

Leading By Example | Joél Leon
DILF (Dad I'd Like To Friend)
07/16/20 • 39 min
Finding time for ourselves as parents is not always easy, especially attempting to find the time to pursue (or even discover) our passions.
In episode 12, Kevin welcomes Joél Leon, a celebrated artist whose Ted Talk on coparenting has over a million views... and the man Lin-Manuel Miranda called “the most inspiring guy in my twitter feed.”
Together, they discuss strategies to inspire ourselves even in the most chaotic of times, as well as everything from finding ways to incorporate more #creativity and #passion into our lives as parents to leading by example in becoming the best version of ourselves for our children... and the work it takes to get there.

Father Figure | Dad, How Do I
DILF (Dad I'd Like To Friend)
07/02/20 • 35 min
In April of 2020, a father of two decided to launch a YouTube channel to offer some friendly "DADvice" to those in need — advice he sorely lacked growing up after his own father left him and his seven siblings when he was only 14 years old. That Youtube channel is called DAD, HOW DO I and in under three months it has amassed over 2.4 million subscribers.
In this episode, Kevin sits down with Rob Kenney, the dad behind DAD HOW DO I, for a heart-to-heart with the international sensation one fan referred to as “not the internet dad, but rather the internet’s dad.” Together, they discuss everything from celebrating our imperfections, the importance of being vulnerable in front of our kids, and how to prevent past mistakes from corrupting our present.

Choosing Parenthood | Gays With Kids
DILF (Dad I'd Like To Friend)
08/13/20 • 29 min
We spend a lot of time discussing the joys and struggles that come with parenthood, but we rarely take the time to explore the choice one makes to enter the club.
For many of us, the path to parenthood was not an easy or straight-forward journey... but that's especially true for members of the LGBTQ community.
Kevin welcomes David Dodge, the Executive Director of Gays With Kids, who made a very conscious choice to become a #Dad on an untraditional path that led to three beautiful children...

Pregnant in the Time of Corona (DILF's Expect The Unexpected Series)
DILF (Dad I'd Like To Friend)
04/09/20 • 37 min
Kevin welcomes expectant dad & NBC News Reporter Kent Erdahl to explore the realities of bringing a new life into the world in the midst of a global pandemic.
This is the first of DILF's new ongoing series on first-time dads, we invite on dads-to-be to provide the often too-rare opportunity to explore feelings on pending fatherhood.
The goal is to allow veteran parents to nostalgically revisit the infancy of their own parental concerns and the chance to check-in with themselves on how far they've come, while offering the freedom to expectant dads to release some of that pressure that most of us never had the opportunity to explore - a forum that every modern parent truly deserves and honestly needs...
