Dad Jokes

A podcast between two first time dads going through the journey of pregnancy and fatherhood. It is a live inside look on the current thoughts of the hosts, not a look back. As long term friends who don’t take themselves too seriously, humor is mixed with sincerity on important topics related to fatherhood. These are real, working, beer drinking men who don’t claim to be experts but want to be good dads and help other dads succeed along the way.
