(not so) Secret Dads Business

G'day G'day! Nate here! The host of (not so) Secret Dads Business! Unfortunately this week, I won't be releasing an episode and probably won't release one for a while. For how long, I'm not sure yet.

I've been looking back at the past year that I've been podcasting and it has been a blast but I can see that there are improvements that I can make to bring you a more entertaining and engaging show.

I apologise that this break is a little abrupt but I think its worth taking the time to tweak a few things in post production to make a better show.... FOR YOU. So I'm taking some time to do just that.

Thank you to all of you who have been listening to the show and all the awesome feedback from you, the listeners, over the past 12 months! I appreciate you all! Thanks guys! You're awesome!

This episode, I had John Christensen join me on NSSDB.

John is one of 6 fathers who collaborated with each other to create a book of dadvice (see what we did there?). It’s about the road fathers travel. Not always paved, not always smooth. It’s about regret, success, vulnerability and relationship enrichment.

It’s written by average dude dads, for average dude dads that want to be better.

Village Wisdom is the “dad manual” you’ve been searching for.

In this weeks episode, Nate and John discuss the book and how it has strengthened relationships in John's life. We also go off on a bit of a tangent where we discuss the time we first became fathers. Both of our jaws were on the floor when we discussed the cost of having a baby in the US vs Australia.

This episode features a conversation with my mate from down under, Nate Newman, host of the (Not So) Secret Dads Business podcast. Nate is currently taking a break from podcasting on his own platform, but reached out to me for us to talk about what we're both currently experiencing with our respective sons: not being able to keep up with how fast they're growing up before our very eyes.

We discuss a sense of loss and pride that comes with watching our children come into their own, as well as some practical things we can do to take our relationship with our children and our spouse/partner to the next level.

As always, thank you for spending part of your week with us!

This episode, Judge takes the wheel again and brings us some travel reviews that have been written by terrible parents. They're giving bad reviews because the beach is too sandy, there were fish in the water, they weren't warned about mosquitoes and more!

To finish off the episode, Nate and Judge discuss what we would like to see our sons do as a career and letting them follow their own interests instead of having something they're not interested in, forced onto them.
