The Dads Must Be Crazy Ep. 50: The Line Between Funny & Not

We made it to episode 50 on the podcast, not even realiing it until it was time to post it. This week, we are back to a more serious topic. When does a joke cross the line from being funny to being malicious and out of line? How do we teach our children to recognize when they're going too far? This is a tough call, as evidenced by the troubles we had discussing it.

Shenanigans Episode 139: Chicken & Waffles & Truck Meat

The Dads Must Be Crazy Ep. 48: Unsolicited Parenting Tip

The Dads Must Be Crazy podcast is still remotely recording due to the pandemic. This week's episode is a bit more serious than some of our previous episodes. Craig broaches the subject of people interfering with your parenting style or offering advice that runs counter to your ideals. There is definitely a difference between asking for advice and getting an earful from people who think they know better. While they may have best interests at heart, too often they make matters worse.

The Dads Must Be Crazy Ep. 47: Kids Say the Darndest Things

The Dads Must Be Crazy podcast is full of parenting today and one of the kids makes an appearance three times to voice her displeasure. They are hilarious dad moments, and they really make the show this week. We also talk a bit about our Father's Day celebrations, kids learning to drive and what happens when our wives are not able to do their normal superhero efforts. Will the dads survive taking the bucking reigns of parenthood all by themselves? It could be mayhem without the calming influence of mom.

The Dads Must Be Crazy Ep. 46: Sibling Rivalry

While the podcast continues to physically distance, we were still able to get together through the magic of the interwebs to talk about the very thing that we love and hate -- siblings. Yes, we all have siblings, and we're all the oldest of our siblings. Howie has a younger brother. Bobby has a younger sister. Craig has a younger sister and brother. The sibling rivalry is still strong as adults. How about among their children? Do they see factions and alliances?
