Mike and Dave are two Gen X Dads who grew up watching movies because there was nothing else to do.

When did Nic Cage become a whole thing?Are th ...

Elevator pitch: I'd like to take a 19th century French melodrama and update it, eliminating the graphic violence and changing the famously heartbreaking ending.

Listen, the Dads make no secret of our political leanings: would we would prefer this country and its institutions be run by women of color? LIKELY. Is this a topical issue at the moment? PERHAPS.

Sometimes - maybe most of the time? - we don't fully appreciate our Dads until we've had a chance to reflect on them. Their tiny brilliances, their hidden diamond facets behind their seemingly-workaday veneer...these can sometimes go unremarked upon until one day you look up and realize OH SHIT MY DAD IS THE BEST COMEDY OF THE 80S. Am I conflating …

True story: My Dad purchased a bunch of tvs from an electronics store. He was informed that he would receive a discount if he signed up for their in-house credit card.

Let’s talk about AI terminology in the second episode in our AI in Action series. The AI term gets thrown around more than a beach ball at a summer picnic, and it’s not always clear what people are talking about. “AI” is to tech what “food” is to a grocery store – sure, it covers a lot, but a hot dog and a filet mignon are pretty darn different whe…

How rare is it for a movie to serve as a primer on how to both BE and NOT BE a Dad? This film is the "Scared Straight" of Dad movies. Also Ted Kramer is a lousy person who is capable of great things.

Perhaps we don't touch on the dark side of Dads often enough. But ask anyone who's even been, had, or known a Dad and they'll tell you it's there. The obsessiveness, the pettiness, the gatekeeping... it's all there. Perhaps (as this podcast occasionally posits) the real merit of a Dad comes from our ability to recognize and (hopefully) evolve into …
