Sometimes Good Show

“A great show (at times) for positive masculinity; whether you’re a dad or not, you get a great discussion each episode. It’s made me examine how toxic I was brought up and basically I feel like Thomas’s dad and my own shared the exact same parenting styles. When the guys are good, they’re great!
Holy cow the negatives though! First, is the “auto ads” Eli jokes about being so bad. And yeah, my record is SEVENTEEN ads out of nowhere in a 50 minute podcast. Depending on how many pop up in the free feed, some episodes are almost unlistenable. One episode I had more ads than episode content.
Second, poor editing.
Third, Thomas in the two parter on self-defense keeps saying your kid should just not fight an attack. The others bring up sexual assault and he still just says to not risk it and let the criminal justice system handle it later. I have major issues with saying a kid should just lay back and take a rape; especially from a podcaster currently in court with the alleged sexual predator he used to cohost with on another podcast.
Fourth, just privilege. So much privilege. One host (who makes his living being anti-religious, hosting multiple podcasts as an anti-theist) has his kid in a Jewish preschool in a state where preschool costs as much as a university to attend for a year. Plus a nanny that seems to be in most of his stories.”

The hosts’ wildly differing experiences of “family” are giving me new and welcome insight with regard to my own family, and how I...”Read full review »

“I’m not a dad, I’m not even a mom, but I had a dad once a long, long, long time ago. I love this podcast because I love humor, honesty and humanity.”
