It's been another month and Eddie and Aaron have finally reconvened for another episode. In our 17th episode, we are once again without a guest, but that's okay because there's a lot on our minds. Eddie and his family upgraded their living situation leading us to discuss the state of the American Dream in 2021, the blistering housing market, and what it actually means to move into a house. We also discuss the terrible situation in Aghanistan, the upcoming school season, and taking theme park trips with toddlers during COVID. Basically, a bunch of fun light-hearted stuff. Hell, it ain't called the Dadward Spiral for nothing.

It's Episode 16, and after a near two month hiatus, Eddie and Aaron have returned. And we're here to explain why there's been some unexpected chunks of time between episodes. Long story short: Being a dad is already a challenge, but to do so when you work in an uncertain industry, at home, during a pandemic, things turn into a juggle rather quickly. In this episode, we break down our own experiences as freelancers and contract employees, and how that job instability impacts our role as parents and the relationships we maintain with our family -- as well as those we work with.

Episode 15 is here and it's the first time we're joined by someone outside of the entertainment industry. That doesn't mean this isn't a worthwhile chat, though. Aaron's childhood friend Brian Levine joins us to talk about his experience in parenting two kids with Type 1 diabetes. The conversation follows the journey he and his wife have been on in discovering the issue, traversing the public school system, and learning about service dogs who are trained to help people with diabetes. It's an emotional, informative discussion and will hopefully provide some clarity for those parents who may find themselves in a similar position.

It's Episode 13 and Eddie and Aaron are joined by comedy writer, voice actor, and activist Dani Fernandez. We start this episode off exploring such wonderful topics like public pooping, the odd spill-over between QAnon and hardcore Snyder Cut fans, and being really into Crypto. But things soon get real as Dani adds her perspective to the deeper conversation -- which revolved around trauma, the importance of language (ie: DBT Therapy), representation on social media and in entertainment, white privilege, and the ways in which we, as parents, aim to communicate these issues to our children. At the end of the day, this one's all about authenticity and promoting kindness into the world. Which tends to be a simple, yet difficult, thing to do.

Scott and Jake welcome Shane Hartline to the show because he happens to be the biggest fan of the Ultimate Warrior's former tag partner. It's been an eventful week in wrestling as WWE main roster starts to work it's way towards TLC and away from Survivor Series, NXT sends (some of) us home hyped for this weekend's Takeover War Games, and AEW's Winter is Coming special found us with a new AEW World Champion and an invite to... watch Impact? And that was it! No other thing happened at all since our last recording involving two of the biggest names in wrestling history who never crossed paths but everyone wanted to. Nothing.

Aaron and Eddie are joined by Kether Donohue who's best known for her performance as Lindsey in FX's You're the Worst. More importantly, she's the first female guest to enter the Dadward Spiral. In this episode, Kether and Eddie bond over being raised by Vietnam War vets and the heartbreaking damage Agent Orange did to their fathers. We discuss how secondary PTSD can impact us as children and adults and dig into Kether's new CBS sitcom B Positive, and the real issue of renal failure and kidney dialysis many Americans deal with on a daily basis. As per usual, we go deep and even though there are sound issues throughout the episode, this one was a profoundly satisfying one to record.
