When Can You Have “THE Talk” with Your Kids? – Cast of Dads Podcast #39
Wow, back-to-back Cast of Dads podcast posts! I guess we are slowly getting back into our groove. Episode #39, "Having THE Talk" was focused on pretty much one thing – having "the talk" with your kids.

Gadgets + Dads = “Dadgets” – Cast of Dads VIDEO podcast at CES 2011
The Cast of Dads has been on a bit of a vacation recently – the reality is, we've all been so busy that our little "baby" (Cast of Dads) has become a bit neglected. But we promise to get back on track! To get things going again, we actually did do a video podcast at CES 2011. Unfortunately it was…

The Cast of Dads Podcast is now a Feisty 1 Year Old!
Episode 37 was an important show for the Cast of Dads. It represented an anniversary, or perhaps more appropriately said, a birthday. As we are all dads in the podcast, parenting is a core component of our daily lives. A year ago, the five of us gave "birth" to the podcast and almost every week or so afterwards, we got…

We have insights and opinions on just about everything, and much of it actually makes a lot of sense! In Episode 36 of Cast of Dads, "Pop Rocks and…

“For the Love of Thighs and Breasts” – Cast of Dads Podcast #35
Well, the last episode had some gremlins doing a number with CC's voice. And there is actually now a "missing episode" of Cast of Dads that never even made it to production…the same gremlins were at play. But we recorded Episode #35 "For the Love of Thighs and Breasts" just in time for Thanksgiving. So first of all, Happy Thanksgiving…

Lice, Facial & Chest Hair, Rockets and Halloween – Cast of Dads Episode #34
So I guess that CC Chapman finally hit puberty on this episode of Cast of Dads. We are not exactly sure what happened, whether it was the Skype "bugs" at work, the fact that Halloween is just around the corner or if CC just has an alter ego that came out when we recorded Episode #34 "Itchy Scratchy Hasselhoff", but…

Cougars, Cars, Dirty Diapers, Fighting & Shooting Pool with a Rope – Cast of Dads Podcast #33
You gotta love unscripted recordings. And how we are all at the beck & call of technology. During our live podcast, Skype decided to act like a misbehaving child and refused to let us talk. But we worked through this and just kept going with a fairly "loaded" series of topics. The result is Cast of Dads Podcast #33 "State…

What Does “Silent But Deadly” Refer to in the Latest “Cast of Dads” Podcast #31?
We are still trying to get back into the regular scheduling of our "Cast of Dads" podcast. It's definitely hard to schedule 5 busy dads who are juggling family and work and play times (what's that?). But we did have our weekly virtual convention over the phone and managed to bang out another great episode titled "Silent But Deadly". Note:…

Hey Brands & PR Agencies – Dads are Different than Moms!
When I started blogging about 5 years ago, I had no idea what direction it would take me, nor what type of success or lack there of it would have. I must admit, I'm pleasantly surprised at the result thus far. But it wasn't easy. Having a full time job and having a full time family are two things that…
