Hi Podcast! I'm Dad.

Joey Two Bananas and Frank The Tank

We're just two guys who have been friends for way too long, who both became fathers along the way. We're doing what we always do at the end of a party: talk about life, fatherhood, and anything else our beer and whiskey filled brains want to talk about. We also make too many jokes, rarely take ourselves seriously, and stubbornly date ourselves with 90's kids references.

....Well that umm...... that got kind of dark there, but i think it took us to an interesting place we can learn from. With that said episode 6 Part 1 is in our rear view and this spaceship is taking off without looking back to take us to Episode 6 part 2. Were on the look out for new type of geometry to fit our new thoughts on expectations into, new ways to arrange the expectations we have and finding ways to fit those oddly shaped unexpected aspects of life into our accepted paradigm. All this to say that having seen the dark side of expectations lets emerge into a more hopeful part of the conversation and learn to accept the unexpected in ourselves and our children.

We all have expectations of ourselves, of others, of our kids. Your probably expecting me to make this description a little wacky and funny, this time around though I will be subverting those expectations. The conversation tonight centers around an anecdote that Frank the Tank tells. This one gets a little heavy and will challenge you to really take the topic to heart. This is also a two part episode as we had another story to tell about expectations and it would be too much for just one episode. So please, join us on this journey as we tackle the topic of expectations and how they can affect both parent and child.

Its time to discuss the elephant in the room. The glowing cathode ray tube (or LED or Plasma screen) of moving pictures that parents trust their kids to watch and in turn watch their kids. The famous third parent of the modern age, the TV and its slanderous and hurtful depictions of fathers through the years. In reality how often can media depict a father as a bumbling ball of idiocy before children start to believe dads are certified 100% grade A dumb-asses. All i know is we grew up watching these dumb ass dad and it makes you wonder how much those depictions affected us in the end. So in conclusion....... wont some one think of the children and their TV soaked eyeballs.

Crash! Boom! Splat! This is all you hear before running into the kitchen to find your child has somehow opened the fridge and pulled out a shelf. Now your kitchen is covered with the remains of an unidentified leftover over meal. Now, here is the fun part do you: A. Grab the belt and let fly the justice of a good ass whooping B. Place the child in time out C. Calmly explain to the child what they did was wrong, and let them go without any punishment D. Weep quietly in the corner, realizing this is what your life has become. Who knows what the right answer is? We don't, and im guessing neither did our parents. We're sure as heck going to try and talk it out though, and maybe find a spark of genius or two along the way (maybe). Either way, it's time for the age-old argument: Spare the rod and spoil the child or grab your implement of choice and let fly the corporal punishment.

Ahh the big box hardware store, we have grills, tools, lawn equipment, and all the building materials a dad could ever want. Its pure distilled fatherly happiness in a warehouse............ or is it. Why do fathers find their happiness in these "dad" things, is it some intrinsic trait of fatherhood? Or did we just trick ourselves into believing that the traditional "dad" stuff is what makes us happy? Well I can tell you one thing this description box wont have the answer. Maybe the actual episode has the answer though, or maybe we just tell some funny anecdotal stories and try to piece together a working theory on fatherly happiness. Only way to find out is to listen..... so um... yeah why are you still reading this go take a listen. :)

One day you wake up and you're wearing cheap running shoes, you have a pair of grill tongs in your hands, and you feel the irresistible urge to tell really bad puns to people. It's too late at this point - the process of becoming your dad has already begun. Now your only options are to accept it or rage against your fate (or anything else really, I'm just an episode description not your boss). Regardless of what you choose, tune in, have a beer, and listen to us puzzle out the dreaded dad-morphosis as well as share our own experiences with our fathers.

Welcome to Episode 1! We have no Idea what we're doing, but we're ready to have fun, ask some questions, tell some jokes, and maybe find a few nuggets of knowledge along the way. We intended to talk about finding time as a father in this episode, so lets see how that turned out.

Welcome to the Maze of Masculinity: do you go left, right, forward, backward, up or down? Truth is, no one knows the right direction. Men have been trying to navigate their way through this maze since the beginning of time, and if you're a dad don't worry there's a whole subsection of the maze specifically for you known as the Dungeon of Dad-ness. The problem with the maze is we're all stuck in here, and most of us don't realize it. Everyone's trying to find out what it means to be a man using advice from others in the maze, but we all just wind up being the blind leading the blind. Spoiler alert, your two faithful hosts here are in the maze too so don't expect a path to the exit from us. Just maybe though, we can help map out these cantankerous corridors a bit so that one day someone will find the exit and let the rest of mankind know how to get there.

The towering totem pole of testosterone looms large over all men and fathers. It is the measuring stick we stand on our tippy-toes up against to try and be that much more masculine then the next guy. We all do it even if we don't realize it, but why? No one is asking us to be the apex man standing atop all masculinity like a silverback gorilla on top of the mountain, are they? We have decided to tackle this topic and examine ourselves and how the tower of testosterone affects our self-image and our parenting styles. So join us on this trail and maybe we'll find some jokes and insight along the way.

Now see here, I know we spoke about discipline before..... but lets be honest we all knew that one episode is not enough for such a complicated topic. Today with the help of special guest "CK Preparatory" we hit the metaphorical dance floor to talk about discipline once again, this time though we'll home in on the giant red stomping elephant in the room that is anger. We all experience it, we all know it, and we all fail to control it on occasion, so what part if any does anger play in how we discipline. Is it a positive, a negative, neutral, or a non-factor? I'm not sure anyone in the world knows the definitive answer but we're sure as hell going to pick at it until we're at least satisfied with the points we make. With that being said, if poking the big red angry elephant in the room results in it being even angrier, well we're going to poke it anyway for our amusement and yours. So, sit back, relax grab a drink and wander down this winding trail with us.
