Fatherly Faux Pas

Bro Code Rewritten: Friendship, Marriage & Vulnerability

Cory and Brad open up about the real dynamics of male friendship — from vulnerability and jealousy to laughter and loss. They explore why it’s hard for men to form deep connections, what makes those bonds last, and how marriage fits into the picture. This episode is raw, funny, and full of those “I’ve felt that too” moments that make Fatherly Faux Pas feel like a chat with your best buddy.

The Fun One Loses It: Family Vacations, Fights & Forgiveness

We're back, baby — and this one’s worth the wait. In episode 27-ish of Fatherly Faux Pas, Cory and Brad come in hot after a long hiatus with big family updates, two weddings on the horizon, and a listener-requested topic: family vacations. Cory opens up about a recent spring break trip to Scottsdale — the first with all three daughters and their significant others — and how quickly fun dad energy can spiral into frustrated dad mode. From golf shop meltdowns to restaurant mix-ups to accidentally yelling at his own kids, this one’s got it all. Brad brings the balance with reflections on parenting adult children, wedding prep, and how to find joy in the middle of chaos. Plus, shoutouts to the #1 fan Joanne, a Mother's Day moment, and plans for a more consistent podcast schedule (no promises). This one’s raw, honest, and hilarious — just like being a dad.

The Fun One

Also featuring: 🛴 Golf cart dreams 🎸 Guitar calluses 🎿 Breaking ski rules 🚸 The fine art of parenting through fun without losing your mind (or your license) No guests, just two dads on a mic trying to figure it out... again.
