Ep. 70 - Remote Viewing and Project Farsight

Ever heard of remote viewing? How about an interplanetary father skipping out on child support? Did you know Zeus was really a sex-offending prison warden who underwent history's most impressive rebrands?
Get ready to learn all about Farsight, the only "scientific approach to remote viewing" that we know of.

Ep. 69 - Autism is NOT an Excuse for Bad Parenting (and Other Things That Grind Tom's Gears)

Instead of talking about Farsight (like we planned), Tom selfishly derailed the conversation and monopolized it, complaining about our favorite non-sponsor, a vehicle crash with the best witness ever, and a parent using Autism as an excuse to, well, not be a parent (or a good hooman).

Ep. 68 - Levitation, Politics, and Bullies (other than politicians)

We've been out of commission for a few weeks, but Tom can (sort of) breath again and Doug is done vacationing (this month). 
We're regressing to our early episodes a little this week, covering a LOT of ground. Buckle up, we're explaining how health insurance bills providers, talking about bullies, introducing the One Big Beautiful Bill (Tom just gagged a little bit), becoming a worse spouse as a side effect of parenting, a real levitation device built in Denmark, our "two party" political system, and Tom's super-low standard for politicians to get his vote. Oh, we also tell boob jokes from Tom's Army days.

Ep. 67 - Radical Honesty Parenting

In the spirit of this week's episode, we're going to be radically honest with our listeners. We don't remember recording this episode (seriously). We recorded about three weeks ago, then Tom got STUPIDLY sick and Doug embarked on a new job and a camping journey, and aside from Will Smith's interview about Radical Honesty we don't remember what we talked about. 
Enjoy, hopefully we weren't terrible, and send your thoughts on parenting styles to 2DTPod@gmail.com ! 

Ep. 66 - WTH is Wrong With Mars?

Who loves fringe scienceand conspiracies? Tom does.Let's make the case that Mars isn't actually a planet, and how the rest of our solar system may support such an out of this world claim. Also, there's something wrong with Uranus.

Ep. 65 - Fight Night II: Trump vs Musk

There's been some recent trouble in paradise for Elon Musk and President Trump, so we decided to do the mature thing and speculate, assume, and otherwise infer the rest of the situation. Grab your card and punch in for another fun-filled fight night, featuring passport follies, possible slander (libel?), movie reviews, fun facts about Mars, and huffing Sunny Delight.

Ep. 64 - All the Updates! A True Tomocracy Episode

Welcome to Just One Dad Talking. This week Doug is unavailable, but we love you all enough that we don't want to leave you without a weekly dose of Dadding. We've covered a LOT of ground over two years and 63 episodes; dreaming cephalopods, Charlie Weis being a say-nothing-mushmouth for millions of dollars, redshirting our kids, the deuce fairy, even the fantasy land Narnia (or was it Australia?). Today, Tom's giving an update from one topic covered in each episode.
We appreciate you, thanks for tuning in for two years, and a very special thank you to our Patrons. Enjoy this trip down memory lane, with updates on all things 2DT. 

Ep. 63 - Sealand and the Badass Sovereign Prince Michael

If you survived last week's Snake Ducks, you're going to like this one. Have you ever heard of the Principality of Sealand? This place is amazing. In its short history, Sealand has riveting tales of pirates, a hostile coup, a daring helicopter rescue, and the Sovereign Prince Michael, who once captured his abductors and ransomed them back to their host nations. Seriously. 
This place is amazing, and it would fit in Tom's front yard! It's the world's smallest sovereign nation (eh), but made for an easy hour of conversation, laughs, and inspiration. See Tom's review of Sealand here, and if you leave one of your own with "2DT" somewhere in the text we'll enter you in a raffle for an Amazon gift card at the end of the month.

Ep. 62 - Guerrilla Warfare

We're covering another crucial pop culture debate, 100 Men vs. a Gorilla. According to AI, " We navigate the ups and downs of this intricate debate—kicking off with a light-hearted banter about their previous episodes before diving into a remarkably detailed analysis of various combat scenarios. 
"Tom shares his deeper thoughts on military strategies, drawing parallels with historical guerrilla tactics, while Doug questions the feasibility and success rate of various strategies, ensuring the audience remains engaged. They cover the pros and cons of using different terrains to battle a gorilla, illustrating the unpredictability and humor that arises in such absurd scenarios." 
Yup, AI got it about right. 
We also go deep into a survey of Americans and Brits, curious about which animals people believe they COULD beat in a one on one fight.

Ep. 61 - Moana vs. Mo'Anna (What Frozen's Title Should Have Been)

Remember the early episodes where we just kind of went EVERYWHERE? Today we're talking about Easter and the Pope, Doug humping a police car, Bonnie Blue (Yup, we're back on her like everyone else), a literal curse on American Presidents that may be a bit confused, and a 2DT-style debate about which movie was better, Moana or Frozen.
