In today’s episode, Travis hits the ground running with a question no one expected… involving bowel movements and public pools. Yes, we go there.

From there, it’s classic dad-life riffing—current family happenings, what we’re watching during the Winter Olympics, and how the vibe of the big event feels different as adults (and especially as parents).

We talk about:

❄️ What the Olympics feel like now vs. when we were kids 👨‍👧‍👦 What dads actually look forward to in this season of life 🚫 What we try to avoid now that we’re older ✝️ What Travis might give up for Lent ⏱️ And all the random thoughts that fit between nap time and school pickup

It’s another short, real, unscripted episode—just two dads squeezing in conversation before the chaos resumes.

If you like honest dad talk with a little humor and a little perspective, this one’s for you.

In today’s episode, we kick off a two-part series on Youth Sports—but first, Travis opens with the intro question: “What hasn’t changed?”

From the smell of Play-Doh instantly transporting us back to childhood to the simple things that stay consistent over time, Travis and Robert reflect on what still feels the same… even as life moves fast.

Then the conversation shifts to Youth Sports.

Travis isn’t quite in the thick of it yet with little kids—but he knows the day is coming when club teams start knocking. Robert, already in the world of competitive sports with his kids, shares what it’s really like navigating year-round athletics in California, where “seasonal” sports often feel like all-season commitments.

In this episode, they unpack:

🏀 The pros and cons of youth sports — then vs. now 🏀 How family life changes once competitive sports enter the picture 🏀 Setting up your home and communication to support busy seasons 🏀 The agreements and expectations for both athletes and parents 🏀 The life lessons sports teach beyond the court — resilience, adversity, and character

Whether you're already juggling tournaments or just anticipating that season of life, this episode offers honest reflection and practical insight from two dads at different stages of the journey.

👉 Part 2 coming soon.

In today’s episode, Travis and Robert talk about tools for dads—but not just the kind you keep in the garage.

Before jumping into the main topic, Travis kicks things off with a few quick product reviews, including a drink from Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, black sesame balls, and a sweet snack from a local spot.

From there, the conversation widens into:

• DIY home improvement tools

• Tools to protect and care for your home

• And the most important tools of all—the ones needed for the job of being a dad

They explore the idea that you can own every tool imaginable, but if you don’t practice using them, they won’t be there for you when it counts. Whether it’s fixing something around the house, protecting your family, or showing up emotionally as a dad, tools only work if they’re used regularly.

This episode is about being prepared, staying sharp, and practicing the skills that matter most—long before you actually need them. 🛠️👨‍👧‍👦
