Accomplishing goals and taking on new challeneges is one of the things that we enjoy most here at Falcon Punch Thunder Dads. There's a time for taking on these new activitites that really push and grow us as people, but there's also a time to take a look at how much you're enjoying these activities and how much growth you're actually getting from them. Realizing when you've hit a point where you no longer enjoy an activityy or sport can sometimes be difficiult. We don't want to disappoint our peers and friends, and we certainly don't want to be labeled a "quitter" either! But often times, in order to be able to tak on new things in your life, you've got to let go of other things. In that light, we'd like to discuss the art of knowing when to "quit"!
Hello Falcon Punch Thunder Friends! It's COLD where the Falcon Pucnh Thunder Dads live and they're here to tell you all about it!

So warm up with a cup of coffee or hot chocolate and let the Falcon Punch Thunder Dads warm up your ears with a toasty new podcast episode!
Hey everyone!! It's 2018 and we couldn't be more excited to launch into a new year to bring you new episodes and share our fitness and activity adventures with you! We kick off the new year with an observation the Thunder Dads made over the holidays about "unplugging" yourself from as much distraction as possible and quieting your brain, even if for just a short period of time! Ironic, we know, for a podcast to be extolling the virtues of unplugging, but nevertheless, we feel it's a great thing to do and encourage you to do it! After you listen to our podcast of course!
We want to thank ALL of you who have listened, subscribed, and shared us with your friends and family Our goal at Falcon Punch Thunder Dads is to share our love of physical activity viewed through the lens of two dads who also enjoy science fiction and wicked sweet high fives.

How about you? Does looking at the real world hurt your eyes? Do you prefer looking at your friends through Skype instead of in person? Do you tape smartphones to your face so you never miss a thing going on in the virtual world?
