🎙️ Episode 236 – “Shots, Super Coaches & Sit, Ubu, Sit” This week on the Top Dad Podcast, we’re bringing the party favors, the pep talks, and the parenting wisdom—just don’t expect them in equal measure. 🎂 We start with Birthday Party Magic—aka how to survive a sugar tornado and still smile for the photo. Then, it’s onto Rec League Chaos, where we discuss how to deal with “Super Coaches,” those sideline superheroes who think every 8-year-old game is the World Series. 🥃 Next, we debate

🎙️ Episode 232 – “90s Jingles, Goonies & Dad Bathroom Zen” This week on the Top Dad Podcast, we’re rewinding to the '90s—when jingles slapped, movies had heart, and your biggest fear was forgetting to rewind your latest Blockbuster rental. Top Dad Matt returns from Turks & Caicos with salt in his bones and sunscreen in his soul, while Top Dad Ken dives deep into his kids’ irrational fears (spoiler: everyone is afraid of getting eaten by something while sitting on the 🚽 ).

🎙️ Episode 233: “Dents, Deals & Dad-Level Halloween Skills” Buckle up, dads — this week’s episode swerves harder than Top Dad Ken after someone didn’t check their blind spot.

🎙️ Episode 230 — Alge-bros: Two Dads vs. Fifth Grade Math This week on the Top Dad Podcast, we ask life’s most dangerous question: Are you smarter than a 5th grader? (Spoiler: No. No, we are not.) Top Dads Ken and Matt dust off their calculators, sharpen their #2 pencils, and try to survive a pop quiz from the most terrifying teacher of all—elementary school math. Common core? More like common confusion. We also get deep and sentimental (but not too sentimental) with some lightly uninformed

🎙️ Episode 229 – “Scratch Marks & Schoolyard Time Trials” This week on The Top Dad Podcast, we slam the dad pedal to the metal and hit the NOS—because parenting doesn’t come with brakes (or insurance coverage for car scratches). Top Dad Ken relives his high-octane days as an elementary school volunteer—think less “Cool Dad” and more “Snack Dad”—while Top Dad Matt contemplates whether Beverly Hills jail is as plush as its 90210 zip code. Also in this episode: 🚗 Your kid scratched your

From blue-collar hustle to figuring out your hat size (apparently, it’s a thing), we’re tackling it all.

🎙️ Episode 226 – “Bananas, Birthdays & Bunker Shots” This week on The Top Dad Podcast, we tee off at Jr. Golf Camp, debate grocery store ethics (yes, grape grazing is stealing), and ask the real question: why are bananas so confusing? Is it per pound? Per banana? Per your busshel? Who knows. We also dive into the chaos of birthday sleepovers—where kids never sleep, snacks vanish in seconds, and someone definitely cries (sometimes it’s a dad). Speaking of terrifying: we reveal our top

🎙️ Episode 225 – “Bulk Buys & Hot Dog Lies” This week on The Top Dad Podcast, we lace up our dad shoes, flash our membership cards, and head straight into the hallowed halls of Costco. Where dreams are sold by the pallet and your kids magically vanish in the snack aisle. We’re diving deep into the joys of buying in bulk—because nothing screams “fatherly responsibility” like 7 pounds of shredded cheese and a drum of pretzels. Plus, we pay tribute to the greatest deal in dad history: the

🎙️ Episode 224 – “Sports, Scotch, and Solo Dad Time” This week on The Top Dad Podcast, we break a sweat (figuratively), pour a Scotch (literally), and dive into the chaos of dadhood one-on-one. We’re talking sports—playing them, watching them, and mostly pretending we’re still good at them. Plus: why one-on-one time with your kids is more valuable than a front-row seat at the Big Game (unless it’s Da Bears… then it’s a tie). We introduce a bold new drink idea: The Water Hazard—hydration

🎙️ Episode 223 – “Knives, Rotten Tomatoes & The Birds and the Bees” This week on The Top Dad Podcast, we wrestle with the real parenting questions—like when to have “the talk,” what counts as a knife (that’s not a knife), and whether Waterworld deserves a second chance (spoiler: no, but the stunt show slaps). Join us as we crack open the Great Egg Debate (how do you like your eggs, and are you wrong?), revisit 1986’s finest Aussie export Crocodile Dundee, and try to figure out if Rotten

From navigating Disneyland with kids (and a fanny pack full of granola bars) to defending the honor of butterscotch like it’s 1987—this episode is packed tighter than a minivan headed for vacation. We debate the real reason behind traffic slowdowns—are we rubbernecking or just taking a good, long “gapper's delay” to

From the unspoken bond between dads and their ladders (we don’t need a taller one, we want a taller one), to the bittersweet mayhem of Field Day season, we’re covering it all. School’s out, summer’s in, and our kids are leveling up from elementary to middle school—and we’re not crying, you’re crying (okay, we’re also crying… behind our

🎙️ Episode 220 – “You’re Killing Me, Smalls!” This week on The Top Dad Podcast, we step up to the plate and swing for the fences in the wild world of kids’ baseball — where the grass is patchy, the snacks are elite, and the politics are more intense than a parent-teacher conference gone sideways. Top Dad Matt breaks down the drama of Little League politics (spoiler: someone didn’t make All-Stars and momma’s not happy), while Coach Ken navigates the chaos of coach pitch—where every ball is
