Description

People have to work, no mystery there. What is a mystery, though, is how best to make sense out of busy schedules when kids are in the picture. Do you want to know who holds the key to that mystery? Us too! That's why we talked with Josh Cecot, someone who juggles an irregular schedule as the General Manager of a restaurant with being a husband and a dad of two.In this episode of Modern Dadhood, Marc and Adam commiserate about the aches and pains that come with getting older, and about graduating from a crib to a toddler bed.The podcast's introductory guest is Josh Cecot, and the three discuss the pros of having one-on-one time with your children when you're solo parenting, and the cons of having less time as a complete family unit than you'd like.  Additionally, we discuss:•  the feeling of guilt when work prevents you from being with your kids•  the importance of distraction•  restaurant etiquette when you're dining with kids•  staying at work a little later than you need to as a favor to your spouse •  the desire to take your children on adventures•  the need for hand signals with other parents in public•  the importance of letting it go-- (not like the song)Josh Cecot proved his candidacy as a returning guest right away. He'll be on our short list... especially because he showed up with  80s movie references at the ready, and good craft beer. Links:York River LandingCaspar Babypants

Modern Dadhood is an ongoing conversation about the joys, challenges, and general insanity of being a dad in this moment. The interview show is hosted by Adam Flaherty and Marc Checket, two devoted 30-something dads who are certainly not fatherhood experts, but do share indisputable chemistry and a zest for parenting. Guests from all walks of life speak candidly on a wide range of fatherhood themes, and listeners can expect a healthy dose of laughter, sincerity, dad jokes, and 90s nostalgia in each half hour episode.
