"I use to do be able" Group
# The Ultimate Dad Support Group: From Baker’s Cysts to Beef Jerky BrainwavesGetting through fatherhood one dad joke and support giggle at a time, this episode is your new go-to for the lighter side of dad life. We’re talking about everything from losing muscle memory to dodging the family support group, with plenty of laughs along the way. Because let’s face it, when you’re old enough to remember when cows had hooves and not feet, adulting is basically epic comedy.
IN THIS EPISODE:
* The return of Tyler and how surgery turned into a support group support anthem
* Dad wins, dad fails, and still finding time for jokes (including the classic "Why do cows have hooves?")
* Our ongoing support groups—more like Dad Brotherhood 2.0—sharing stories from the gym, parenting, and the wild world of bidets
* What’s new in life: from quitting alcohol to exploring the risks of off-the-wall backyard pools
* Nostalgic talk: childhood sports, old-school gym stories, and support base growth stories with a sprinkle of those “remember when” moments
* The grand challenge: Can you do this workout variation? An ongoing segment to keep you moving and giggling
