The HeyDad Podcast

Latest Episodes:

34: Performance Review (or: "San Francisco's hottest club is...") Jul 25, 2019

Show notes

If being a dad is "the most important job you'll ever have," then it's time for a performance review. Tyler does some very basic internet research on how to do one of these, then pulls Kevin into the office with HR to talk through his performance this last quarter.

Also, the BuzzFeed game is back!

33: Shea Serrano (or: "Splotch and Blob") Jul 09, 2019

Show notes

A very special epsiode of the HeyDad Podcast, where we get a chance to interview Shea Serrano from The Ringer. He's an amazing writer, full-on Thing on the Internet, and a Dad of three boys. We talk about positivity, hard conversations with his kids, and which rapper/character from The Office he would choose to be his dad.

FYI: There is some adult language in the interview - so if you're listening with kids, you've been warned! :)

Also, "You know what I hate?" is back!

32: Father's Day (or: "I text you every time I try") Jun 11, 2019

Show notes

It's Father's Day! So naturally we asked the only non-dad on the show to talk about his parenting angst.

Tyler shares his perspective on losing the "non" in his title, and the rest of the guys share about how and why being a dad means so much to them.

Also somehow Tyler transitions from an endorsement of survivor into a new take on an old classic - "You know what I miss?"

31: Lies (or: "Did you know in the olden days everyone drank blood?") Jun 04, 2019

Show notes

Lies! A story about Kevin's 1st grader regularly coming home with wildly incorrect information becomes a wider conversation about lying and kids.

Andy shocks everyone with some truly terrible boyfriend behavior in the cold open, and the guys tell very real stories about the worst lie they've ever told (and we unintentionally lifted some of this from The Office, but imitation is the highest form and all that).

30: Mother's Day (or: "Somehow we got our mom to be on the podcast!") May 10, 2019

Show notes

Mother's Day!

The guys describe how watching our wives give birth makes us borderline worship them, Tyler seamlessly works a Beyonce reference into a discussion about birth, we all talk about some of the things we love about watching the women in our life be moms, and DEREK INTERVIEWS OUR MOM.

Also we thought it would be a good idea to start a Mother's Day episode with a circumcision anecdote, because we're idiots.

29: The FurBaby Special (or: "it's time to talk about non-dad stuff") Apr 22, 2019

Show notes

Tyler takes the wheel and finally gets his chance to convince us that having a dog is like having a kid.

Tyler lays out the similarities, Andy makes some confessions, and Derek finds a way to mention his remodel again. The discussion ends with a story that was almost too gross for this podcast.

Plus we have a dog theme song that plays for so, so long.

28: Cleaning (or: that fat dude from Seinfeld got eaten on the toilet") Apr 02, 2019

Show notes

How, just how does everything get so messy so quickly? The podfathers discuss messiness, conflict about said messiness, expectation setting, and how to deal with one of the more annoying realities of parenting. You know what I hate is back, as well as "Is my Kid a Psycho?"

27: Worrying (or: "is it legal to bleach a kid’s mouth?") Mar 06, 2019

Show notes

Having a kid turns even the most optimistic of us into worriers. You love them so much and they're so dumb and dangerous and helpless. In this episode we talk about irrational worries, the co-parenting dynamic when one person is more worried about something, what this podcast will be like when our kids are teenagers, and so much more. Also Derek basically does an unpaid ad for Disneyland during "Is my kid a psycho" and we all resent him for it.

26: My kid is too hard on himself (or: "You failed because you were ticklish") Feb 21, 2019

Show notes

Episode 26. What do you do when your kid is too hard on himself? What is the right amount of worrying about a kid? Is it ok to project current behavior into the future (what will be be like when he's 15)? How do you teach a kid to value some adult's opinions over others?

But it's not all too heavy-handed and whiny, we do our usual stupid stuff too. There's our first unanimous "yes" to an "Is my kid a psycho?" voicemail, and You Know What I Hate? is back!

25: Parenting for an Audience (or: "Blueberry-related crimes.") Feb 06, 2019

Show notes

Heyoooo it's new episode time. Today we're talking about when you have to be a dad in front of other people, and all of the complications that brings. Derek lives at his in-laws for two months, Andy delegates potty training to a baby sitter, and Kevin's kids desperately want to be dropped off at Grandma's house, rather than having Kevin stay and hang out.

In other news, the BuzzFeed game is back and also we have a new "Is my kid a psycho" and you are NOT READY for the ending.
