    Being Cool With Not Being Cool Anymore | Chris Gethard on Fatherhood, Being Lame

    Being Cool With Not Being Cool Anymore | Chris Gethard on Fatherhood, Being Lame

    [This is part 2 of a 2 part conversation]  In "The Lonely Dad Conversations," comedian Chris Gethard interviews a dozen dads to explore commonalities between their fatherhood journeys. What he finds, is that, plain and simple, when we become dads, we turn pretty lame. That's not to say that becoming a parent isn't an amazing, powerful, and positive life change, but think about it... are you as cool as you used to be before you had kids? Me neither. Chris joins us to laugh, ponder, and dissect some of the recurring themes in "The Lonely Dad Conversations."

    In Episode 84 of Modern Dadhood, the guys quickly recap Easter and Adam asks Marc to kindly share some compliments about his wife, before returning to Part 2 of their conversation with Chris Gethard. Chris is promoting his new book on Scribd called "The Lonely Dad Conversations," and the guys ask him about some of the recurring themes that pop up in the book, including:

    •  How dads are like "backseat passengers"
    •  How the baby boomer generation are different dads than we are
    •  The role of your social life when you become a dad
    •  Our kids observing our screen time
    •  And More!

    Before closing out the 'sode, Adam and Marc share a quick round of "Kisses and Disses" inspired by recent podcast reviews. Leave a review for the show and you, too, could be featured in an upcoming segment!

    The Brick Wall That Is Fatherhood | Chris Gethard on Loneliness, Connection, Parenting

    The Brick Wall That Is Fatherhood  |  Chris Gethard on Loneliness, Connection, Parenting

    Most new-dads-to-be do the obligatory preparation: You look through the couple of "survival guide" style books gifted to you by a friend. Watch YouTube videos on swaddling techniques. Read up on tips for potty training. Buy a new coffee maker to elevate your caffeine game. And ready your mind for the impending insanity of parenthood. But somehow, despite all the "thorough" preparation, every new parent gets sideswiped with a slew of unexpected emotions and challenges. And here's what those "survival guide" books can't possibly set you up for: Becoming a parent will change you... And it can bring on some intense emotions and self-revelations. Comedian, writer, actor, and podcaster Chris Gethard returns to Modern Dadhood to chat about the cultural shift that's enabling dads to examine these feelings. In classic Gethard style, even the heavier themes which appear in his new book The Lonely Dad Conversations are explored with openness, sincerity, and a lot of humor, and the same is true of our chat in this episode. Don't drop off before another installment of the beloved (sub)segment Did I Just Hear That Out Loud?  [This is part 1 of a 2 part episode.]
     

    Episode 83 of Modern Dadhood opens with Marc & Adam trying out an exercise where they expedite their catch up by reducing it to 5 words. They keep it brief because they know that their first returning podcast guest, comedian Chris Gethard, is going to bring the goods. Chris hosts his own podcasts Beautiful Anonymous and New Jersey Is The World, he stars in standup specials, has appeared in numerous TV shows and films, and he returns to Modern Dadhood to discuss his new book The Lonely Dad Conversations.

    Chris and Hallie's son Caleb ("Cal") is 4 years old, and as Chris shares candidly, he's potty trained, but can't yet wipe his own butt. After reassuring him that Cal will hit that game-changing milestone soon, we get down to business and talk loneliness. When Cal was born, Chris found himself in a state of deep loneliness, and in an effort to better understand these feelings, he interviewed a bunch of fellow dads about their unique fatherhood experiences. Chris grouped the answers by common themes that came up, and spoiler alert... it turns out he wasn't alone in his loneliness.

    The guys discuss a number of themes which pop up in The Lonely Dad Conversations, including:

    •  The rejection of "Hustle Culture"
    •  Focusing on your own death when you become a parent
    •  The importance of maintaining your sense of self
    •  How your concept of time shifts when you become a parent
    •  And more!

    The conversation will span two episodes, so please subscribe to Modern Dadhood so you'll be alerted when episode #2 releases!

    The guys round out the episode with an installment of Did I Just Say Hear Out Loud?

    Scribd Audiobooks Review: Is it Worth It Compare To Audible

    Scribd Audiobooks Review: Is it Worth It Compare To Audible

    Scribd is an audiobook and ebook subscription service, with millions of titles. For a monthly fee of just $9.99, an unlimited number of audiobooks, ebooks, magazines, and sheet music can be accessed. This is an incredible value for avid readers, as it allows them to have constant access to new content without having to pay for each individual book. In addition, Scribd also offers a great selection of free books, so there is always something new to read.

    Read our complete Scribd review at IMHO Reviews.

    Scribd Vs Audible:
    It really depends on what the person is looking for. Audible has always been considered the better audiobook service, but Scribd was more popular because it offered unlimited access to books in their library for a low monthly fee. However, now that Audible has launched an All-You-Can-Listen subscription plan that is only $7.95 per month and includes unlimited access to thousands of audiobooks, Audible Originals, and podcasts, more people are choosing Audible.

    Check out our honest Audible Review:

    There are a few key differences between Scribd and Audible. For one, Audible is an audiobook company, so their library only consists of audiobooks. This is in contrast to Scribd, which has a library of both books and other formats (such as audiobooks,  ebooks, magazines, sheet music. etc.). Additionally, Scribd has a smaller number of titles overall than Audible. However, both companies offer a great selection of popular titles and classics.

    There is no free membership to Scribd. However, they do offer a free trial for new members. After the free trial, memberships start at $9.99 per month. Memberships give you unlimited access to Scribd's library of books, audiobooks, etc.
    You can cancel Scribd after the free trial. You can do this by logging into your account and going to the 'Billing' section. From here, you can select the 'Cancel Subscription option.

    Scribd App:
    The Scribd App is a great way to read and listen to books on your phone. It has a clean, simple design that makes it easy to browse and find titles you're interested in. The search function is also useful, and you'll be suggested titles based on your interests. You can download and listen offline, which is great for when you're on the go. I really like the app and would recommend it to anyone looking for a good book-reading experience.

    The biggest downside to Scribd is that it does not support Kindle readers and does not have its own reader. This means you can only read on your cellphone or tablet, which can be inconvenient. Additionally, the selection of books is not as large as on other reading platforms. However, Scribd does offer a variety of other content, such as audiobooks, comics, and documents.

    Is Scribd Worth it?
    I highly recommend Scribd to all my friends. There's no doubt that Scribd is a great service. For just a few dollars a month, you get access to an amazing library of audiobooks and self-improvement content. The question is, is it worth it? For me, the answer is yes. I love being able to listen to audiobooks while I'm doing other things, and the selection on Scribd is excellent. The self-improvement section has also been really helpful, providing me with guidance and motivation that I wouldn't have otherwise had access to. If you're considering signing up for Scribd, I say go for it. It's a great investment in your personal growth and development.

    Dad on Pills (Part 1) | Chris Gethard on Mental Health, Fatherhood, Vulnerability

    Dad on Pills (Part 1) | Chris Gethard on Mental Health, Fatherhood, Vulnerability

    There’s no definitive guidebook to parenthood. (It would sure be a lot easier if there were though, huh?) In episode 62, Adam and Marc wax lyrical with comedian, actor, writer, fellow podcaster, and dad Chris Gethard about toddler poop, fatherhood fears, vulnerability, and destigmatizing mental illness. With Chris’ essay Dad On Pills serving as a guidepost, the conversation explores Chris’ determination to normalize the conversation around mental health. After, Marc shares a mildly macabre incident in the segment "Did I Just Say That Out Loud?" This interview with Chris Gethard is part one of two.

    Episode 62 of Modern Dadhood opens with an acknowledgement of the passing of the amazing Emilio Delgado, who played Luis on Sesame Street for decades, and was kind enough to join us on the podcast in July of 2020. The guys get right into part one of their conversation with comedian, actor,  writer, and fellow podcaster Chris Gethard. Chris is promoting his new essay on Scribd called "Dad on Pills" which is a powerful piece about his history with mental illness, his experience becoming a father, and the art of balancing these two big pieces of his life. Chris discusses topics such as:

    •  Fleeing from his home in Queens with a newborn when the pandemic hit
    •  Getting poop on your hands
    •  Potty training: boys vs. girls
    •  Normalizing the mental health/mental illness conversation
    •  Moving away from "workaholic" culture
    •  Being "too soft" vs being "tough"
    •  And more!

    The second part of the conversation will be featured in our next episode.

    Episode 4: Lisa Ko on Her Award-Winning Debut Novel, The Leavers

    Episode 4: Lisa Ko on Her Award-Winning Debut Novel, The Leavers

    In today’s episode, author Lisa Ko discusses her debut novel, “The Leavers,” which chronicles the powerful and intertwining stories of Deming Guo and his mother, Polly, as both embark on their own search for identity. Early on, Polly is separated from Deming, and shortly thereafter Deming is adopted by a couple of loving — if not somewhat misinformed — American professors. He is then forced to navigate the memory of family and culture he left behind in tandem with his adoptive parent’s desire to raise him as a modern, middle-class American. As such, Ko’s novel explores the themes of identity, culture, and the definition of family.

    “The Leavers” was shortlisted for the National Book Award in addition to winning the Pen/Bellwether Prize for Socially Engaged Fiction, and also named a one of the best books from 2017 by NPR, Entertainment Weekly, the Los Angeles Times, BuzzFeed, and Bustle.

    In today’s episode, Ko discusses the real-life stories that inspired “The Leavers,” why she felt the story in her book was worth telling, and what she learned while writing her debut novel. We talk about pacing, prose, the importance of listening to a killer soundtrack while writing, and, of course, the many nicknames that Ko as earned throughout her career.
