I love listening to the conversations Thomas, Eli, and Tom have on this podcast. I’ll never have kids myself, but I still find myself eagerly waiting for the next episode of Dear Old Dads to be released. Hands down, this podcast is my favorite. RIP INTO IT!
Really loved the show until I realized they were just commodifying my need for community and companionship during my lowest times.
No, really- others are weak. This is the best and you’re missing some great insight and jokes if you’re missing this show
Eli’s abject lack of empathy for women SAYING they don’t want sex when they’ve been touched all day by a child or children is horrifying. Yes, there is absolutely a direct correlation between being touched all day by a child or children and NOT wanting to be touched more by an unempathetic S.O. demanding access to her body.
This is my favorite podcast, I’m a dad and I relate to Tom a lot… sometimes so much I’m like “Am I Tom?!”. This show has made be a better dad, a better husband, and a better person. I recommend this show to everyone who will listen.
