Two Dads Talking

Who loves fringe scienceand conspiracies? Tom does. Let's make the case that Mars isn't actually a planet, and how the rest of our solar system may support such an out of this world claim. Also, there's something wrong with Uranus.    Photo by CHATGPT and DougDad.  

There's been some recent trouble in paradise for Elon Musk and President Trump, so we decided to do the mature thing and speculate, assume, and otherwise infer the rest of the situation. Grab your card and punch in for another fun-filled fight night, featuring passport follies, possible slander (libel?), movie reviews, fun facts about Mars, and huffing Sunny Delight.   As always, you can sign up f...

Welcome to Just One Dad Talking. This week Doug is unavailable, but we love you all enough that we don't want to leave you without a weekly dose of Dadding. We've covered a LOT of ground over two years and 63 episodes; dreaming cephalopods, Charlie Weis being a say-nothing-mushmouth for millions of dollars, redshirting our kids, the deuce fairy, even the fantasy land Narnia (or was it Australia?)....

If you survived last week's Snake Ducks, you're going to like this one. Have you ever heard of the Principality of Sealand? This place is amazing. In its short history, Sealand has riveting tales of pirates, a hostile coup, a daring helicopter rescue, and the Sovereign Prince Michael, who once captured his abductors and ransomed them back to their host nations. Seriously.  This place is amazing, a...

We're covering another crucial pop culture debate, 100 Men vs. a Gorilla. According to AI, " We navigate the ups and downs of this intricate debate—kicking off with a light-hearted banter about their previous episodes before diving into a remarkably detailed analysis of various combat scenarios.  "Tom shares his deeper thoughts on military strategies, drawing parallels with historical guerrilla ta...

Remember the early episodes where we just kind of went EVERYWHERE? Today we're talking about Easter and the Pope, Doug humping a police car, Bonnie Blue (Yup, we're back on her like everyone else), a literal curse on American Presidents that may be a bit confused, and a 2DT-style debate about which movie was better, Moana or Frozen.    Want some Mo' (ana) 2DT in your life? Check out the hours of b...

Our most heated discussion since Alabama vs IVF (Veni, Vidi, In-Vitro), this week we're talking about Elon Musk, DOGE, and ethics in government and oversight. How Dodgy is DOGE? Does Musk's conflict of interest Trump the potential for reform? We went long on this one, so buckle in for an argumentative, philosophical, ideological battle that lasted longer than Doug's bladder or Tom's patience. Go D...

This week we have a special guest, Drunk Tom! In addition to our one-sided Tomocracy, we talk about the Jason Voorhees of elephants, butcher the last name of a national champion (sorry Paige!), trigger Tom on Dire Wolves being "de-extincted," and share "the worst thing we've ever done while drunk" stories.   Bring Yourself Back to Life with the 2DT Patreon and vote for Tom!   A toast to this week'...

This is NOT a parenting podcast. At least, it's not a how-to.   If you're looking for a podcast on how to parent, on how to be a perfect father and set the gold standard for father of the year, then this is not the cast for you.  We're here for stories of "Dadding" gone wrong, to share life experiences so you can learn what NOT to do, and to share opinions on just about everything under the sun. ...

Who is Cain Velasquez, why did he open fire into a pickup truck before chasing it for eleven miles, and why are we sort of happy he only received a five-year prison sentence with time served? We're also talking a little about Vore, mental health professionals identifying as turtles, and possibly the greatest traffic stop interaction of all time.   Join the 2DT Patreon for your pet cat.   No hamste...

Who knew taxes could be so fun? Just kidding, they still aren't. But they are weird when they apply (or don't) to baseballs, body parts, and breast implants. Also, Doug actually has a good idea for reforming property taxes? Shoutouts to Aaron Judge, Jude Law, quantum computing....and our apologies to Forest Whitaker. We love you.   Join the 2DT Patreon  and write it off as an emotional expense!  ...

Ross Ulbricht (aka The Dread Pirate Roberts), the notorious mastermind behind the most infamous dark web marketplace, was pardoned by Trump. As usual, Tom and Doug have thoughts. What we didn't have (because we are dum-dums and forgot) was dad jokes, so let us make it up to you:  What do you call it when a blind person goes on the internet? The Dark Web   Sorry for the recent technical issues with...

We're going all in talking about the recent escapades of Bonnie Blue and Lily Phillips.

Welcome to Jeopardy! Tom quizzes Doug on a whole host of the things we've discussed on the cast so far. And let's just say, we've covered a lot of (sometimes very weird) ground.

We've had a couple of controversial debates, but never anything quite like this. Is Die Hard a Christmas movie? Also, why your kids should NOT watch Gremlins, dirty Santa jokes, and Doug's internet makes the naughty list. We're taking a short vacation after this week, we'll see everyone in 2025. Merry Christmas, ya filthy animals.    Drummers and Pipers are drumming and piping about the 2DT Patreo...

Steal your children's money and gamble it away, launder most of your income and hide it from the IRS, open a front Pizza shop that's too good to lay low, and fund interpretive art to spy on your enemies and undermine the Soviet zeitgeist.

There's a crazy (brilliant) (useless) (progressive) law being passed in Narnia...we mean Middle Earth...Neverland?...Australia! That's right, we're going back to the made-up land down under to talk about their recent plan to ban social media for kids under 16. And because we're not entirely sure Australia really exists (see episode 43 for more on that), we'll stumble down a rabbit hole or two and...
