Grown Ass Dads Podcast
Being a dad is tough. Being a grown-ass dad? That’s a whole different beast.
Welcome to Grown Ass Dads—the podcast where three mid-life dads keep it real about fatherhood, family, careers, and surviving mid-life—all with a side of whiskey, sarcasm, and some good old-fashioned belly laughs.
Hosted by Adam, Jay, and Jason, we dive into the everyday chaos of being a dad in today’s world—whether it’s wrangling kids who won’t put down their screens, dealing with tech we barely understand, surviving youth sports insanity, or just figuring out how to not completely screw up our kids.
We tackle topics like:
🔥 Parenting in the digital age—and why our kids are convinced we’re ancient.
💪 Navigating mid-life struggles—because nobody gave us a manual.
🤯 Balancing work, family, and sanity—and occasionally losing all three.
😂 The hilarious disasters of dad life—from bourbon-fueled decisions to questionable leadership skills.
🧠 Mental health and masculinity—because sometimes even grown-ass dads need to be vulnerable.
Expect real talk, honest stories, and the occasional conspiracy theory. Whether you’re a dad, a partner, or just a fan of hilarious and unfiltered conversations, we’re here to remind you that you’re not alone—and that it’s okay to laugh at the struggle.
So grab a drink (or two), hit that subscribe button, and join us as we navigate fatherhood, friendship, and finding purpose when life gets complicated.
