Rickhouse - June 2020 Jun 26, 2020

Show notes

Welcome to the June 2020 Rickhouse. The home of the ever maturing Today’s Dad definition! The goal of Wake. Dad. Drink. Repeat. is to “define Today’s Dad”...we do this by asking our guest to share their definition at the top of every show. We store these definitions week after week on our podcasts, YouTube channel, in our RICKHOUSE on our website, social media platforms and we constantly highlight them. Our Rickhouse is our way of distilling our information into a tasty blend to share.

These episodes will drop the last Friday of every month, adding to the ever maturing and complexity that is a "Today's Dad" ~ Enjoy

Defining Today’s Aba with Marshall Goldman Jun 22, 2020

Show notes

This week on the pod we are joined by Marshall Goldman. Marshall is a dad to two, the Director of the Allan Jones Tennessee Athletics Center, and a real Today’s Dad.

We had a great chat with Marshall about his journey through fatherhood, the ins and outs of raising a blended family, and why his kids call him Aba instead of dad. We also get into a little bit of a deeper conversation regarding some of the social injustice issues in our country and how Marshall has shared some of his encounters with anti-semetic acts with his kids.

Marshall claims his definition of a Today’s Dad is a cop-out, but we think it is a very real answer to the question. His comparison of teaching swimmers breaststroke to all the different styles of fatherhood is very much worth the listen!

A big thanks to Marshall for joining us on the pod this week!

Wake. Dad. Drink. Repeat. Father’s Day Special 2020 Jun 15, 2020

Show notes

This week on the pod we are joined by some very special guests, our dads! Mike Smith and Michael Palmer make their Wake. Dad. Drink. Repeat. Debut to share how they define a Today’s Dad, answer some questions about fatherhood, ask us some questions, and share their thoughts on the podcast...because in true dad fashion, they must share their opinion.

We also share updated versions of our Today’s Dad definitions, and we're honored to be able to share them with our dads first. We have interviewed some incredible dads over this past year and have learned a lot from them, so we felt it was time to readdress our definitions.

A big thanks to our dads for joining us for a special episode this week. Enjoy your week with your families and celebrating Father’s Day!

#blackdadworries with Casey Palmer Jun 08, 2020

Show notes

This week on the pod we are joined by Casey Palmer. Casey is a dad to two, a husband, a writer, and the mastermind behind Casey Palmer, Canadian Dad | Husband. Father. Storyteller.

The goal of this show has always been to learn from our guests so we can be better fathers, husbands and people. We spoke with Casey this week about life as a black dad, #blackdadworries, and about all of the protests that are happening around the world as a result of George Floyd’s death.

This is a really important episode that we hope makes people think about the long standing race issues in this country, and how we have an opportunity to fix the problem….and it starts at home with how we talk to our kids!

Casey’s Today’s Dad definition is a great starting point! He talks about how a Today’s Dad is trying to change the world’s perception of what a dad is, which it feels like we are doing in regards to how we treat one another. This is a great episode and we are so thankful to Casey for coming on and talking some real truths with us!
