Two Dads Talking

Ep. 89 - Marriage and Gender Roles

In this episode, we name names. No, seriously. Like should a child be able to sue his parents for being given a crappy name? What does a name do to your kids and their potential success? Who (if anyone) should be changing names after a marriage? And how important it really is to pick the right spouse.
Also discussed for the pleasure of your earholes: Will Smith's marriage rant, shooting accuracy that is just criminal, and a good old fashioned Tom vs. Doug debate.

Ep. 88 - The Wildest Identity Theft Story of All Time

You aren't ready for this one. We're talking about a real-life identity fraud case that went on for thirty years and incarcerated the VICTIM. We also want to introduce Master Sergeant GamblyFace, a man who bet hard against Venezuela and is now facing charges (and a bit of hypocrisy) after a $400,000 payday. 
Bonus content: Tom got a BAD haircut, What if your spouse suddenly became a Flat Earther and wanted to educate your children, gender role disagreements, and an unexpected trip down the stairs...

Ep. 87 - Wild Border Protection Solutions, Serial Killers, and Final Destination Firetrucks

Border protection takes a wild turn, women are obsessed with serial killers, Tom was attacked by a fire truck, and the hits just keep coming this week.

Ep. 86 - Horsing Around, Someone is Lion about Disney, and a Dad had a Tragic Day in Court

Disney is a lot like Australia (except it's real): We keep talking about it, it's a magical place full of strange imaginary creatures, and someone is Lion about it. This week we take Pride in the most recent Disney lawsuit, buckle in for a Tom / Doug argument just like the good ole days. 
We also cover the epic history of the horse, Tom's daughters are asking tough questions (insert Dad fail here), and a Dad had a heartbreaking day in court.

Ep. 85 - We're Going to Disney World

Both Dads took vacations this week (well, last month, we're a little behind on uploads). What was magical? What PTSD-inducing incident wasn't? 
 
Also, Tom lost the show notes for this one (he's on Fire, that guy...), so either Doug edits this post-publishing and fills them in or Tom owes you all a massive apology. While he doesn't remember EXACTLY what we talked about other than vacations, he's pretty sure there's a Bonnie Blue legal update (Hey John!), dad jokes, and a regrettable comment or two that are likely to get us in trouble with some oversensitive bubble-dweller tuning in from the parents' basement. 
 
Go Dad Go!!! 
 
 

Who's Your Daddy? Tom's Your Daddy

Whether you're a longtime listener, looking for a new podcast, or just want some dirt on Tom, this episode is your chance to get to know your co-hosting Daddy. 
 
What makes him tick? What does he bring to the show? And he accidentally did WHAT to his kids??? 
 
A great place to see if Two Dads Talking is for you, learn a little about why Tom is so screwed up, and feel better about yourself as a dad, enjoy the first edition of Who's Your Daddy. 
 
 

Ep. 84 - Tom and Doug Go Psycho

Nothing makes Tom happier than flexing his Psychology muscles, and this week Doug gives him a long leash to talk about the Rosenhan Experiment and a couple of other psychological lessons learned. We talk about labeling, expectation and its impact on outcome, and of course Bonnie Blue (heeeey John!).

Ep. 83 - Pregnancy, Police, and the Great Birds Conspiracy

What's the best way to spend hundreds of thousands of tax payer dollars earmarked for Narcotics investigations? Parlay bets on DraftKings, obviously. 
Also, Birds aren't real (Australia knows the feeling), a tear-jerking Dadfail at a birthday party, an odd paternity test ultimatum, our gamer secret, Bonnie Blue has news, and the earth may be flat?

Ep. 82 - Trumping Aliums, Tom's a Hooker now, and Getting Drilled in a Garage

Let's talk about Trump's potential Aliens reveal, why he's (maybe) going to do it, what happens after, and where we go from there. Tom also took a business trip to Key West (and you thought his Philly trips were wild), we've got an update for John (hey big guy), and we spend some time talking about false flags in the media.
Oh, we also cross the line (time to get canceled). And someone pretends to be a dentist, performing root canals in her garage. At least, that's what we thought. Turns out it was a satirical article written for entertainment purposes only and we fell for it. Whoops, enjoy it anyway.

Ep. 81 - Lice, Evil Stairs, and Bonnie Blue

The title pretty much says it all this week. Tom has an epic Dadfail (or at least it feels like one), Stairs are as evil as table corners, and Bonnie Blue is at it again (and again, and again, and again...). And of course we've got Dad Jokes and a smattering of other topics to distract us.
