Quite a variety of topics in the latest Cast of Dads podcast #29, “Dude Ranches & Snoop Doggs“, wouldn’t you say? Well I had just gotten back from a week with the family up at a dude ranch and I shared my thoughts about that type of family vacation. Note: we are always looking for […]
Daddy Got an Owie! Making Your Own Injuries A Lesson to Your Kids – Cast of Dads Podcast #28
Well I managed to acquire 18 stitches this past weekend, but still had enough brains to be able to participate in our weekly podcast of Cast of Dads.

Cool Birthday Parties, Pool Safety & Live Parenting Failures Round Out “Cast of Dads” Episode #27
Sorry for the delay in posting about our latest Cast of Dads podcast. Coordinating family schedules are hard enough…but when you attempt to coordinate 5 different schedules from different families, it’s a monumental task. And even after we record, there is still the production work that has to take place (bit hat tip to CC […]
Milking an Almond, Bacon Explosions & Bakin’ in the Heat – Cast of Dads Podcast #26
As if we didn’t do enough drinking during our respective 4th of July festivities, with our voices and brains lubed up with wine and beer, the Cast of Dads convened Tuesday night to record Episode #26 titled “From Snips to Squirt“. Before I dive down into the meat (literally) of the podcast, I want to […]
Thunderstorms, Earthquakes, Spies, Sports Channel for Kids & More on Cast of Dads Podcast #25
In Cast of Dads episode #25 titled “The Russians Are Coming“, we just couldn’t stop talking. Our podcast is pretty loosely structured, frequently we have only 1-2 topics that we plan to talk about ahead of time, but some days we just go without any planning whatsoever and just see what directions the subjects take […]
Do You Know About iTunes U? For Me, It’s Personal!
I received an interesting piece of news this week from Apple. No it wasn’t about the iPhone 4 nor the iPad. It wasn’t a software or hardware release even. It had to do with iTunes U and it was about passing a milestone. Have you heard of iTunes U? It’s a section within iTunes that […]

As all 5 of the us on the Cast of Dads have recently recovered from Father’s Day, with a variety of good times and adventures, we spent some time discussing something that “cuts close” to our Dad-dom, that of “The Big Snip”. Can you guess how many of us on COD have actually had the […]
Beer, Beer & More Beer (And Father’s Day Stuff) – Cast of Dads Podcast #23
Who says that we can’t do a Podcast on a Monday? Well, I guess that I did last week but that was during the day. For our “Happy Father’s Day” episode of Cast of Dads, we did our recording a bit later on a Monday, and lubed up our voices, creativity and topics with a […]
The Sony Dash – Not Just a Fancy Clock Radio – An Internet Connected Appliance! (Sony Giveaway too!)
My wife now has a digital companion as she puts on her make-up or gets ready for the day in the bathroom. Carefully positioned on her makeup table is a small, digital screen that looks like a clock radio. But it is much more than that! The Sony Dash, formerly known as the “Chumby” is […]
“Pitching the Tent Both Ways” – Pre-pre-Father’s Day Cast of Dads Podcast #22
It’s really odd but for some reason, the Dads of Cast of Dads are much more talkative on the weekend. Perhaps because Episode #22 (“Pitching the Tent Both Ways“) was recorded on a Monday, we were a bit punchy and off our game. Or were we? You will have to listen in to decide for […]
Cast of Dads “Memorial Day” Podcast #21 – Education, Family & More
On Memorial Weekend, the Cast of Dads got together to record Episode #21 and it was one of those shows where we were so into the subject matter that the 30 minutes just flew by before we knew it. We always seem to have lively conversations, sometimes we are a bit crazier than others, but […]
