Dead Dads
When Scott and Roger lost their dads, they realized there wasn't a dedicated space for men to talk about the "aftermath" in a way that felt grounded and real. This is that space. Each episode, we dive into the unfiltered reality of being a "Dead Dad" club member. We tackle the heavy lifting of grief alongside the unexpected, everyday moments that only happen when you’re clearing out a garage or realizing you have a question only your dad could answer. From the technical headaches of handling an estate to the long-term journey of being a parent and professional while carrying loss, we talk about it all. Whether you’ve been navigating this for years or the loss is brand new, you aren't alone. We’re just the guys making it a little easier to talk about—and sometimes, finding a reason to laugh along the way. New episodes every other Friday. Welcome to the club.
