Diapers For Two
What happens when you become a dad again in your 50s, but this time with three grown kids already out in the world?
Diapers for Two tells true stories about family, aging, identity, and the emotional math of fatherhood. Hosted by Dan Shimmerman, a dad raising a toddler while navigating life with three adult children, the show blends humor, heart, and quiet reflection. It’s about second chances, small rituals, and finding meaning in moments most people overlook.
At its core, it’s about what it means to keep showing up for the people you love, across decades, mistakes, and second chances.
