January 18, 2021 20:52 - 51 minutes - 23.1 MBWhen we try to redeem 2020, Thom Hofman's story is a great place to start. After a life of scoring beers at 6am landed him in the hospital for the fifth time, he got sober by learning to "resensitize to the mundane." He's been home helping his kids with their online learning, resuming his homeless outreach, and celebrating the 25th anniversary of his first date with his wife.

Male role models were scarce after Black's dad died abruptly when he was 12, so Black essentially had to build his understanding of manhood from scratch.

The stories of Anne Frank and Benjamin Franklin (the 21st and 22nd volumes, respectively) arrive at a time that cou...
Episode 53: Darren W. Carter Has Burned A Lot of Meat
October 19, 2020 19:19 - 53 minutes - 26.5 MBThe episode's title fits Cleveland Dads Group co-founder Darren W. Carter well, both as a foster parent of five ("As long as I am here, I'll have love to give") and aspiring pitmaster ("I'll shovel out to my pit barrel cooker before I shovel my driveway"), because parenting and barbecue are sweet sciences that benefit from the mistakes you're bound to make and learn from. Darren says his faith helps temper his fears for the Black boys he's raising in this current climate. Join us to discus...

October 12, 2020 21:55 - 50 minutes - 27.1 MBToday we celebrate Thanksgiving in Canada (and don't call it "Canadian Thanksgiving") with Torontonian Casey Palmer, who began blogging with purpose seven years ago when his first son was born. Now he's set his sights on thornier social issues and risked his PR-friendliness, in part because his sons are older, but mostly because he can't see any other reason to write other than to speak his truth. Join us for a discussion about how his perspectives changed after George Floyd was killed, ho...

Episode 47 -- James Lopez Came From the Worst
September 07, 2020 15:33 - 55 minutes - 29 MBJames Lopez has built Fatherhood Is Lit on several tenets he tries to live up to every day: Be different, be proud, have fun, and don't settle. And when it comes to working with brands, be unorthodox. He'd rather invest his time in father/child events that have a far more lasting impact than an ephemeral post on social media. James wasn't always comfortable being called an influencer or a stay-at-home dad, until he decided both terms are open to wide interpretation. And he's eager to talk ...
Episode 46 -- Alec Lace Has A Million Things Going On
August 31, 2020 15:10 - 43 minutes - 22.8 MBIn March 2018, Alec Lace didn't know what a podcast was.

July 27, 2020 16:37 - 52 minutes - 27.9 MBRoberto Santiago first became known in the Dad 2.0 Community when he read a Spotlight post about caring for a child born with complete bilateral cleft lip and palate.

July 23, 2020 16:57 - 38 minutes - 25 MBPart 2 of our discussion with educational pioneer Jaime Casap (check out Part 1 here) begins with a celebration of math as life, rather than a mere textbook full of static equations and formulas.

Jaime also discusses the unique joys and challenges of having kids aged 27, 19, and 5, and the vastly different fatherhood experience of each, and how so...
Episode 40, part 1: Decisions That Normal People Don't Make
July 20, 2020 16:19 - 38 minutes - 20.4 MBOur guest Jaime Casap thinks one of the worst things you can ask a kid is "What do you want to be when you grow up?" It's an outdated question that confines a person's impact too specifically. The better questions is: "What problem do you want to solve?" After 14 years at Google, most recently as its Global Education Evangelist, Jaime has several problems he plans to confront head-on. How can we make education more collaborative among students? How has the COVID-19 pandemic exposed the fra...

Episode 37 -- That Instant Feeling of Acceptance
June 29, 2020 15:50 - 49 minutes - 25.9 MBHalf his life ago, our guest Jim Joseph achieved the two primary goals he had set for himself as a teenager: to work in marketing and to be an engaged father. Which made his decision to come out in the late 1990s all the more terrifying, since he was told he would jeopardize both. Having weathered that storm, he talks about how every marketer's job is to understand that everyone is working hard to recalibrate their work and home lives. And as an executive at one of the largest communicatio...
Episode 36 -- Minor Revolutionary Acts of 2020
June 22, 2020 19:51 - 41 minutes - 22.1 MBThis week, Jeff became an engaged father in the most literal sense. And in posting his announcement online, expressing his joy felt like a little rebellion against the male tendency to bottle up emotion. A lot of what we're doing now feels similar, and more than just how we're trying to "ruin our children." We're returning to restaurants. Leaving our phones at home. Putting oatmeal on our corn flakes. Rethinking the whole game. Plus, we discuss four important new reports about protecting o...

June 08, 2020 14:57 - 48 minutes - 24.6 MBOur guest Creed Anthony is a writer, teacher, and frequent contributor to the Dad 2.0 Summit who describes himself as a "seasonal stay-at-home dad." He shares a wealth of knowledge about converting to online education during Covid-19, talking to his students about George Floyd, and coping with racism as a kid in Cleveland. He was often told he "had to be better than the best to be considered average," and one of the cornerstones of his parenting is not to pass that pressure onto his kids.
Episode 33 -- Take THAT, Jennifer Aniston!
June 01, 2020 18:23 - 36 minutes - 19.6 MBBelieve it or not (and we sorta don't), it's June! With Father's Day just three weeks away, Jeff and Doug talk about updates to #GratitudeClub, the effect of George Floyd's death on so many families (and what it means to sit your kids down for "The Talk"), and the crazy-great rise of Rob Kenney, who started his "Dad, How Do I" YouTube channel to further his life goal "to raise good adults."

Head to dad2.com/podcast for a prodigious list of the stuff we're thankful for. And join in!

They're also avid family travelers, so one of the biggest challenges of quarantine life with three kids and a dog is having to cancel 23 plane tickets. Join us for a freewheeling episode that could have easily been titled “Everything Turned to Poop,” “Every Night Is Crotchless Chaps Night,” and “She...

April 27, 2020 12:14 - 44 minutes - 23.3 MBThis week's episode is about the unexpected things you find when you're looking for the things you've lost. You lose a cat, you find a whole network of caring neighbors who'll help you find him. You lose a job, you find the time for some mental inventory while you update your resume. Finding balance is hard, but it's there if you look. Plus, damaged soccer jerseys lead to a meal donation, announcing your kid's college plans, and is LinkedIn just Tinder in business casual?
Episode 27 -- Stress and the Uncompleted Feedback Loop
April 20, 2020 10:00 - 52 minutes - 39.4 MBMost parents have grown accustomed to accommodating stress in our lives, but the known unknowns of Quarantine Life are really stoking the furnace.

Plus, it can be difficult to feel agency in your life when it's up to us to close the feedback loop of accomplishment. So how to we keep our heads without losing our minds?
Episode 26 -- What Level of DEFCON Are You?
April 13, 2020 06:29 - 42 minutes - 22.5 MBThis week's episode functions as a laid-back kind of check-in. How're you holding up? How's the family? Is schooling from home not a complete disaster?

Jeff and Doug don't know when social interaction will resume, but they're already formulating ideas of where they want their lives to be when it does.
