Same stuff, different dad.

Every episode of The Bad Dads Podcast is filled deeply personal stories and relatable topics to remind you that it’s okay to fail. Our goal is to collect a Chicken Soup for the Soul format of episdes of famous and not-so-famous dads that we share (witness) and discuss.  This is a place to feel better about our failures and work toward redemption through each story.

Be a part of the next episode…da da da da.

We’ll release new episodes as time permits. We’d love to hear what’s on your mind until then.
