In this especially rambly episode, your two favorite dads that are way too tired talk about a handful of things. We mostly ramble about the dysfunction and mishandling of the DCEU and James Gunn’s influence. Even if you're not into all that stuff, there's still a lot to appreciate about some of them, but how did they mess up so badly?? Is it okay to use dead peoples' likenesses in films? Why did they fire a great Superman? Why did Gal Gadot lose a lot of support from her fans? But wait Snowflake...

Welcome to another Christmas episode! In this episode, we talk about fake-sick kids, physical media vs streaming, and how terrible, awful, and no-good the San Antonio Spurs are. We mistakenly think they're only 3 and 16. Justin corrects them and says it's actually 3 and 17. But then we find out we were wrong. So wrong. The Spurs are actually 3-18. We cry for a little and then move on. Finally, we continue a Too Tired Dads fan favorite and pitch our very own Hallmark Christmas movies! John's is a...

Ho Ho Ho! It's Christmas time...again! Welcome to our holiday-themed episodes! In this one, it's short and sweet. John has written a technology-driven sequel to Home Alone with Harry and Marv at it again and Justin has written a sequel to Four Christmases, but it doesn't involve eight of them. Just one. Thank you for listening and supporting us. If you like what you hear, please share it around. Please feel free to message us if you have any questions, suggestions for topics, or want to be on th...

With Thanksgiving behind us, the Christmas season can officially begin! We talk a lot about our Thanksgivings and the importance of being thankful. Just a simple John and Justin talking about nothing episode. We give a little tease about the coming Christmas-themed episodes too...so you have that to look forward to.

And we're back...again! In this episode we talk about all manner of things with little direction as per usual. John did his part as co-host and found an article to read whilst Justin did nothing! How do you help your child wake up for school? We talk about food and drink before sleep, bath time, playing and reading books, and other routines that may help. Remember Vanilla Ice? Were John and Justin bullied in high school or we're *we* the bullies? Will Karen listen to this episode? All these ques...

That's right ladies and gentlemen, the boys are back! We know you've missed us! John finally realized this podcast is more important than his family and rejoins it! We talk about John and Laura's new baby boy and how they're adjusting, the very sad passing of Matthew Perry, trunk r treating, and the San Antonio Spurs...even though neither one of us have even watched since the Big Three left. Thank you for listening and supporting us. If you like what you hear, please share it around. Please feel...

In a spooky solo episode, Justin rambles (I know, you're surprised) on and gives out some of his takes on all sorts of things. Nearly not having a place to celebrate his 10th anniversary, work/life balance, the Halloween movie franchise, and more. Yes, most of us have to work and should work. But that shouldn't consume our lives and become who we are. We need to learn to walk away from work and be with our families when the workday is done. We already spend so much of our precious time away from...

In another Justin and his dad episode, Justin talks a lot about the awesome new movie Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse to his dad who isn't a Spider-Man fan.

In this episode, Justin and his dad definitely stay on the topic of James Bond and don't ramble on about nothing. We talk about everything from our weeks, the LEGO video games, trashing a&m, and more. For the next few episodes, John will be taking care of his new son and unable to record. The show will carry on with guests and solo episodes until he is able to return. Thank you for listening and supporting us. If you like what you hear, please share it around.

*SPOILERS FOR AHSOKA AHEAD!* We're on episode 4 now! Already halfway through. When will we see Thrawn? What do you think the real estate market is like on that red planet they're on? Will Justin's kids ever get tired of Spider-Man? Will they form the (correct) opinion that Dunst's MJ is a terrible person and didn't deserve Peter or really anybody? Is Spider-Man 3 really that bad? Also, we're just days away from New Bean's arrival...so there'll be some temporary changes to the show coming up. Joh...

*SPOILERS FOR AHSOKA AHEAD!* In this episode your two favorite guys talk about their weeks and give way too many details. We talk about the joys of our children slowly becoming nerds like us and starting to enjoy the same things we do. Is Doctor Octopus a little boy with "fings" on his back or is he a fully-grown man from Raiders of the Lost Ark ? Watch/listen to find out! Thank you for listening and supporting us.

*SPOILERS FOR AHSOKA AHEAD!* We're back! In this episode we talk about screen time for kids and how that can be an issue for some people. We also talk about dealing with behavior that while typical for 2-5yr old's, can be frustrating. Is Braxton Hicks something a pregnant woman experiences or a country singer? Justin thinks it's the latter, but John insists it is a real thing. You decide. Then, we talk about the Disney+ series Ahsoka ! If you haven't seen, please do! After our discussion of it, ...

Justin's dad joins the party. It's back to school time for many of us, so we talk about our experiences in sending little ones to school. Justin's dad relays embarrassing details of his son's childhood, and Justin talks about sending his own kid to kindergarten! They spend entirely too much time talking about Adam Sandler's resume and Justin relates how he could've been abducted in a Wal-Mart parking lot due to mistaken identity. These stories and more! Tune in and watch/listen, my children! Tha...

In another shorter episode (the kids woke up) we talk about nothing! We play a little game with Google and talk about what pops up when using the "I'm Feeling Lucky" feature. John discovers Google Doodles, Justin simps for millionaire celebrities, but the highlight of the video is when Justin can't pronounce the very simple word "ingenuity." Hopefully episodes will be back to a normal length soon. Thank you for listening and supporting us. If you like what you hear, please share it around. Pleas...

Villains! We love to hate them. In this "bad" episode, we talk about some of our favorite villains from movies and tv. Some spoilers, I guess? We bash Star Trek: Into Darkness again, so you'll have that to look forward to. Short & sweet today, but fun all the same. Thank you for listening and supporting us.

In this episode, we talk about how to do the best you can when you get fast food to eat with your kids. We all love French Fries, but are those the best thing for the kiddos to eat? While it's obviously not ideal to eat fast food, sometimes it's frankly just easier. Out running errands, extremely tired parents, overly tired kiddos, a fun treat on the weekends/vacation, are all okay times to grab a burger. Enjoy a probably polarizing episode that will likely make you judge us. Thank you for liste...

In this episode, DC is king. We talk about all manner of DC! Nolan's Batman, The Arrowverse shows, The Snyderverse, and more. Was Michael Sheen in Man of Steel or was that Michael Shannon? Which one of those was in Tron Legacy ? Do you guys ever CC someone on an email? Don't be a jerk and only use it when necessary, kids! Thank you for listening and supporting us.

We're back! John and Justin are finally back together! After nearly a month of not recording together, your two favorite dads (even more than your own parents, admit it to yourself) are back and rambling nonstop on a variety of topics. We mostly dog on Ezra Miller and why he's a garbage person. Why is the Fantastic Beasts movie series centered on a magical zoologist going toe to toe with the greatest dark wizard of all time? Tell me, who is that on John's background?? Why is Ezra Miller there? I...

Happy Father's Day from all of us here at Too Tired Dads Incorporated LLC Organization. We have the best gig in the world! In this fun and unedited episode (because Justin was too tired to edit), Justin and his tired dad talk about a whole bunch of topics, but mostly just talk about nothing. We discuss movies we've seen lately (some of them father/son related), Justin confuses the name of the Kalahari waterpark with calamari because he's a dummy, and reveals that one of his favorite movies of al...

We promise John and Justin will record again soon. Prayers still going out for little Toebean to feel better! In this all-over-the-place solo episode, Justin also talks about potty training and how that's going for LB. Boy is crushing it, to say the least. Justin then talks about summer plans, traumatizing children with Homeward Bound , and raves about the *excellent* show on Disney+, American Born Chinese . Seriously y'all if you haven't seen it, please do if you can. It's a really great wholes...

Happy Mother's Day from us at Too Tired Dads! We (or our children) literally wouldn't be here today with you awesome ladies! While we do talk about moms, this episode also features tips and tricks on how to deal with a kiddo who is maybe a little scared of the dark. Glow parties, shadow puppets, and glow in the dark toys might help...so long as you don't overnight one that your kid is afraid of!

In tonight's very much rambley and edited-for-couging-spells episode, we talk about behavior problems, tantrums, and what we're doing to try and curb it. Tantrums in Lowes, tantrums at home, behavior at school and more. We spend the rest of the episode complaining about TV shows and how boring a lot of it has gotten. A new Star Wars show/movie? Besides the one with Rosario Dawson? Okay. A new Star Trek show? Does this mean more Pike hair? Then a little more enthusiastic okay. New Marvel shows/mo...

Happy Easter from Too Tired Dads! (If you don't celebrate Easter, Happy Easter from Too Tired Dads!) In this episode we talk about our weeks, Easter happenings (including a terrifying Easter Bunny that may or may not actually be Michael Myers) and of course...Star Trek. Why was Khan even in Into Darkness? (Couldn't they just have made that Robocop guy the main bad guy and not have Benedict Cucumberpatch at all? Maybe if they actually had the balls to kill Kirk it might've worked.) Does John have...

There must be something in the water because both of your favorite dads had tantrums & meltdowns galore today. Justin talks about his day of haircuts, Easter Eggs, and dealing with all-day tantrums and then complains about how gross birds are...because birds are gross. Seriously. They walk around in puddles of water on the street. Do you know what could be in that water? Exactly. Gross. Thank you for listening and supporting us.
