Description

What do bugs, sandwiches, skateboarding, comics, Saved By The Bell, mural painting, a chicken coop... and DADHOOD all have in common? Well, they have author and artist Brady Smith in common. (Duh.) Brady returns to the podcast to chat about many of the seemingly random things listed above... but most of all, how much he and his wife Tiffani Thiessen love being Harper and Holt's parents. After, Adam shares a straight-forward but odd Did I Just Say That Out Loud?Despite being a rather epic milestone, Episode 100 of Modern Dadhood starts off like most other episodes, with a quick catch-up between the guys. Marc shares about his twin boys' epic Star Wars themed 6th birthday party (complete with home-made games) before they welcome author, artist, and friend to the show Brady Smith back for a second appearance. Brady shares what's new in his fatherhood journey (Spoiler alert: lots of skateboarding & Sephora), how he and Tiffani work hard to raise creative, kind, and empathetic kids, and he shares a teaser of his newest book "Bug Sandwich." Topics include:•  The feeling of celebrating your partner's 50th birthday•  Getting comfortable being the "dorky" skateboarding dad•  The freedom of self-employment•  The unexpected challenges of painting a mural•  The first time Brady's daughter watched "Saved By The Bell"•  Involving Brady's kids in his work•  And more!After, Adam discloses an odd dinnertime exclamation in an installment of "Did I Just Say That Out Loud?"LINKSBrady Smith (official website)Brady Smith (Instagram)Bug Sandwich (Powell's books)Random Acts of Drawness!You're Missing It!Red Vault AudioCaspar BabypantsSpencer AlbeeStuffed AnimalModern Dadhood (website)MD (Instagram)MD (Facebook)MD (TikTok)

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.
