Be the Daddy you want to see in world and listen now!
If you haven’t listened to Why are Dads yet do yourself a favor and do it now (and if you have no intention of listening, do everyone else a favor and don’t leave a “review” saying you can’t relate because you allegedly have a good relationship with your dad). Sarah and Alex are intelligent, thoughtful, and sincere in their intentions to examine the phenomenon of dads through a pop culture lens. I was slightly dubious at first because I’m not a “movie person” (I’d never even heard of looping or ADR before) but the magic of the show is in the discussion and the insights Sarah and Alex and their delightful guests have when talking about the movie of the week. Their ability and willingness to examine both social and personal issues, with the goal of being able to better understand themselves and the world, are interesting and deeply relatable, even if you haven’t seen the specific movie in question (like me and all my fellow chickens who still haven’t watched A Nightmare on Elm Street). However the best part is the generous and inclusive humor that pervades every episode, so that even when going into the heaviest topics you’re still left with a sense of perspective and hope, and who doesn’t need more of that? Plus the music, created by the show’s producer Carolyn Kendrick, is stunning and will leave you humming happily to yourself for weeks after. Science (and Sarah and Alex) may never be able to answer the question “Why are Dads?” but YOU can answer the question of if you’ll find a new favorite way to spend an enjoyable hour each week. Be the Daddy you want to see in world and listen now! PS The Top Gun episode is the BEST (and will remind even the most sedate of us of our love of fast things)

I think it’s really fascinating the way they see father themes where I haven’t. They see depth where I couldn’t imagine it and it’s super interesting.

What a little gem of a show. Sarah and Alex have great chemistry, their genuine friendship really shines through alongside insightful commentary of some great movies. I also love the music!

A truly amazing podcast- perfect for anyone who enjoys media analysis and discussions about gender. For your consideration: take a look at The West Wing, particularly “Ellie,” an episode that regularly makes me feel lots of Dad-related feelings. President Bartlet is my high-key problematic-fave...Read full review »
