Two Dads Talking

Ep. 32 - A Blaise of Glory, with Robin Hood and Ninja Turtles!

Hello all you lovely Father Figures! Tonight we plan on going down in a Blaise of Glory - Blaise Pascal and Pascal's Wager, that is. Tonight you will learn how to analogize poker odds with religious beliefs, Robin Hood can tell you exactly how you view reality, and that atheism is so confusing to Doug. Also, please let us know who your favorite Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle is because we are totally not petty and not keeping score behind the scenes. Hope to see you all at the Next Up Music Festival, in Westerly, RI the weekend of September 14th!

Ep. 31 - Terrence Howard Ma(e)th

Terrence Howard is an incredible actor, and I think we can all agree he would've been a good War Machine if they could have worked out that contract.
But did you know he remembers being six months old (in the womb) and recalls inner dialog from before he was born?
Did you know he solved a mystery by age six that Leonardo DaVinci allegedly spent his entire life trying to understand?
Did you know he uncovered a flaw in our current mathematics system, holds hundreds of patents on revolutionary technology, and disproved / reinvented gravity?
Well, neither did we. Take a trip down the Terrence Howard rabbit hole with us! This is the audio of our (first) unedited reaction video to his viral presentation on why he's smarter than everyone else in the history of the Earth.
If you want the full livestream experience, you can find the link here or below to it on our 2DT YouTube page. But don't worry, you can also play along with just the audio here and still get all the (confusing) fun!

Ep. 30 - Human Ravioli?

By law, a taco is now a sandwich...at least in Allen County, Indiana. More importantly, it sounds like the judge does not honor the Cube Rule. Join us for a raucous episode of sandwich fighting, music videos, Lurking 101, and the return of The Big Game. We also find time at the end to go through all the great movies Doug has NOT seen.

Ep. 29 - Man vs Bear: A Grizzly Question

Is this a great philosophical question critiquing the dangers of the world posed to women by men, or is it just a slap in the face for 50% of the world? Spoiler: we thought it was a bit of both. 
What the better question would be, the problem with Christopher Robbin, and a Dad who punched his daughter's 13YO boyfriend. Also, meet the most terrifying bird in the world (thanks Doug).

Ep. 28 - The Problem with Sleepovers

Bet you never thought kids' sleepovers could be explained using poker. Anyway, that's not even the interesting part of this episode. More interesting is hate mail from another episode, Edgar Allan Poe maybe falling victim to poll hustling, Michael Jordan schooling rookies, and our nostalgia over lost experiences. Don't ask what is in our trunks.

Ep. 27 - Bluey, Caitlin Clark, and Why Dave Chappelle is a Real One

Don't look now, but we recorded an episode with structure! Don't get used to it. This week we're putting everyone in Arenas (you’ll see what we did there): Caitlin Clark vs. Everybody, Bluey vs. Industry Greed, Dane Cook vs. Dave Chappelle, and our top three (seven) TV Dads of all time. Also, if anyone knows a therapist specializing in people who know too much about NBA shoe deals, please help Tom.

Ep. 26 - Tom Got Crushed by The Crazy Hippopotamus

Ep. 25 - Election 2024 (We Turned Our Back on Aliens!)

That's right - we are so distraught over our presidential candidates that we hardly acknowledged our galactic friends. While we talk (and mostly cry) about our voting choices nowadays, we still make time to comparative morality and protesting, how to tell if your new friend is FBI, and how much Vanilla Coke sucks. Let's Talk Trump vs Biden!

Ep. 24 - Holy S#!t He's Airborne!

We are joined by one of Tom's old colleagues who whisks Tom down Nostalgia Lane. Next, how would you feel if you lost your arm because you...watched a football game? We finish off the evening by swapping drunk (other) driver stories, kid's spring break, and Daylight Savings Time?

Ep. 23 - Veni, Vidi, In-Vitro

The Alabama Supreme Court causes these two dads to debate for almost two hours, complete with devils' advocates, the Founding Fathers, and THE BEST bad analogies. Dive into our discussion of IVF and how we feel about a state court inserting itself into the procreative arena. Oh, and also we have another round of good movies for you to watch.
