Dad You Should Never Say That!

Episode 32: The Great Summer Camp Escape

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2528751/fan_mail/new] In this summer catch-up episode of DYSNST 32, Micah and Addie return after a month away and jump straight into life at camp, where Addie has spent the past several weeks working nonstop. The episode covers everything from long camp days, sunburns, golf carts in torrential rain, and the chaos of keeping campers safe, to the deeper moments that make camp meaningful—like praying with students, sharing testimony, seeing a camper make a decision for Christ, and building real relationships that carry beyond the week. Addie also breaks down what a typical Christian camp looks like, including worship, small group time, activities, camp crushes, invitation nights, bell ceremonies, and fireworks. Of course, it wouldn’t be this podcast without plenty of random side quests. Micah and Addie revisit the legendary “brown cow” debate, talk about their camp snack-bar rule-bending days, and spiral into conversations about the weirdest books in the Bible, why Psalms feels so dramatic, and which biblical or historical figures they’d most want to talk to. The episode also veers into true crime, Sherlock Holmes, Jack the Ripper, and Addie’s fascination with criminal psychology, all while keeping the tone funny, energetic, and conversational. This episode is a mix of camp stories, faith, humor, nostalgia, and the kind of father-daughter banter that makes DYSNST 32 feel like catching up with two people who are just letting the conversation go wherever it wants. It’s a great listen for anyone who loves summer camp stories, Christian conversations, random deep dives, and genuinely funny family podcast energy.

Episode 31: No Thoughts, Just Snacks

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2528751/fan_mail/new] In this episode of Dad You Should Never Say That, Micah and Addie kick things off with the kind of off-the-rails conversation only this podcast can deliver — from favorite chips and random snack discoveries to the eternal debate over weird restaurant choices. What starts as a tangent about Doritos and ramen quickly turns into a full recap of life lately, setting the stage for a laid-back, funny, and very honest catch-up. Addie shares what it’s been like coming home after her first year of college, unpacking the difference between campus life and being back under one roof with family. She talks about the freedom, the friendships, the strange dorm moments, and the lessons she learned along the way — including why making new friends in college matters more than people might think. Along the way, Micah adds his usual commentary, dad jokes, and observations, making the conversation equal parts thoughtful and ridiculous. The episode also covers a memorable allergic reaction, a few chaotic restaurant experiences, and plenty of stories from college, dorm life, and campus culture. It’s a fun recap of a big year, a look ahead at camp and upcoming plans, and a reminder that the best parts of life are usually the people, the memories, and the stories you get to laugh about later.

Episode 30: That’s What Friends Are For (and Spoons)

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2528751/fan_mail/new] In this end-of-the-school-year episode of DYSNST Ep 30, Micah and Addie kick things off with their usual chaos, catch up on Addie’s week, and celebrate the podcast’s first ever listener message. Addie also shares a big personal update: she and her boyfriend broke up, and she’s been spending more time on Snapchat meeting new people and spreading the word about the show. From there, the episode shifts into a fun reflection on her freshman year of college and the friendships that made it memorable. Addie reads favorite college memories submitted by friends and roommates, including stories about late-night Spoons games, first-week adventures, random dorm hangouts, campus exploring, double dates on Tinder, and unforgettable nights out. Special shoutouts go to friends like Natty, JB, Austin, Chitty, Cade, Rachel, Lacey, Val, Jack, Drake, Rex (well not really REX), and her roommate Nat Nat, whose sweet message about their friendship and shared ER trip adds a heartfelt note to the episode. The conversation is full of inside jokes, roommate stories, and a few wildly funny quotes from the year. To close things out, Addie shares her own favorite memories from the year, including dancing at Rodeo4, meeting Izzy, New Year’s Eve with family and friends, and building a weekly ritual with Micah through the podcast itself. Micah reflects on how meaningful those conversations have become and how the show has helped them stay connected. The episode ends by highlighting the importance of making time for the people who matter most, while also revisiting some of the most ridiculous quotes from the year.

Episode 29: Livin' on a Spare

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2528751/fan_mail/new] This week’s episode is pure organized chaos in the best way. We catch up on the end of the school year, summer plans, camp training, birthday ideas, books, concerts, and the usual random side quests that somehow turn into half the conversation. Somewhere between all of that, we also end up talking about flat tires, roadside problem-solving, escape rooms, family plans, and the kind of everyday disaster stories that make for the best podcast material. It’s funny, scattered, and full of the usual mix of tangents, life updates, and questionable decisions — basically, a very accurate snapshot of what happens when we sit down to record.

Episode 28: Gas, Gas Baby

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2528751/fan_mail/new] In this episode of The Dad You Should Never Say That Podcast, Micah and Addie kick things off with a very important conversation about gas prices, then somehow end up in a full-blown debate about college, AP credits, minimum wage, server life, and why some jobs feel way more exhausting than they should. They also talk through the weirdly specific joy of Waffle House, the superiority of certain late-night food spots, and what kind of restaurant each of them would actually want to run. Along the way, they spiral into classic podcast chaos with ideas like shock-collar trivia, birth simulators, Jackbox games that get way too inappropriate, and the ongoing question of whether adults should be trusted to make decisions after a certain number of caffeinated drinks. It’s funny, a little unhinged, and exactly the kind of conversation that proves Micah and Addie should probably never be left unsupervised with a microphone. If you like off-the-rails family banter, food arguments, college rants, and deeply questionable business ideas, this episode is for you. Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2528751/support]
