Boring Dads of Jax Podcast

Episode 3: Zach and John

In this episode, John sits down with Zach to answer a simple question: what is the goal of Boring Dads of Jax? That conversation opens into a broader discussion about fatherhood, leadership, growth, and the challenge of becoming a better dad without much training or structure. They talk through the similarities and differences between leadership at work and leadership at home, the role of planning in family life, how fun shapes a child’s identity, and what it means to protect your children in the modern world. They also reflect on how their own fathers influenced them, what patterns are worth keeping, and what needs to be unlearned. It’s honest, funny, reflective, and intentionally unpolished—exactly what the show is meant to be. Boring Dads of Jax is a podcast about fatherhood, growth, and trying to get a little better over time.

Episode 2: Patrick and John

In this episode of Boring Dads of Jax, Patrick and John sit down for a raw, honest conversation about what it actually looks like to grow as a father in the day-to-day grind of family life in Jacksonville, Florida. Most dads train for their careers, their fitness, and their hobbies—but almost no one trains to be a parent. This episode explores what it would look like to treat fatherhood like a skill you can practice, measure, and improve over time. The guys talk about: Why parenting often feels like you’re “thrown into it” with no training Emotional regulation and not losing it over spilled cereal or spaghetti on the wall Managing stress during daily routines like getting out the door in the morning The idea of building a “curriculum” for becoming a better dad Leadership vs. management inside the family Modeling behavior your kids will reflect back to you Apologizing, repairing, and rebuilding after you mess up Long-term consistency vs. short-term parenting gimmicks Building family values, habits, and systems that actually stick This is a candid, unscripted conversation between two dads trying to get better—one small rep at a time. If you’re a dad (or soon-to-be dad) trying to be more intentional about how you show up for your family, this series is for you.
