Stay at home dads and LA-based content creators Evan Berger and Kevin Laferriere are known as TheDumbDads to their 1 million digital followers. Their content is a hilarious take on the lazy dad jokes implying that dads can't get anything right. Having appeared on The Today Show, Ellen, Good Morning America, and now, Rachel Thexton Connects, their humour about everyday parenting has me scrolling Instagram more than I should! I look forward to welcoming Evan and Kevin of TheDumbDads to the podcast this week.
