Nerdy Dad Cast

Lyteforce Media

Hosted by Chris "@lyteforce" Golden - who's joined by Jon "@jonbreisnes" Breisnes on the regular - when you tune in to this podcast you'll get to hear all the lessons they're learning, the lessons they continue to learn, and the lessons guests share with them as they navigate this world of nerdy parenthood together.

Things like potty training, the world of Santa/Tooth Fairy/Easter Bunny. Or... when or if it's appropriate to introduce Chris's 4-year-old daughter - Babyforce - to the world of Fortnite.
