Episode 95 – They/Them (Ft. Saffron)

Happy Pride Month!

In honor of Pride Month I spoke to one of my dearest friends: Saffron! They are a non-binary individual who I’ve known for 13 years!

They were very kind to share their personal journey navigating gender norms and how they were christened Saffron on their “golden birthday”.

In addition they also took the time to help provide education tools for parents who may have a hard time trying to navigate non-binary language with their children.

It’s a really great episode, I think you’re really going to enjoy it!

Joe welcomes back friend of the show, Tyler Watson, to discuss the merits of these dads. They even dig into their favorite TV Moms of all time and Brian the Birth Guy is back with another “Ask the Birth Guy” segment.

This week Brian answers the question “What is Hypno Birth!?”

Episode 91 – DTALKS Rewind (A Gentle Beginning)

On this Rewind episode of the podcast we revisit July of 2017 when Joe became a dad for the second time.

Joe recalls his experience of using a hospital for his first child vs using a Birth Center for his second and also covers how he and his wife dealt with their newborn’s tongue tie and what to look for/how to treat it if you’re in a similar situation.

We also feature the “Ask the Birth Guy” segment where our resident Dude-La Brian Salmon tackles the question of “What to do when you’re pregnant again after giving birth 3 months ago?”

If you have a specific question you want Brian to answer be sure to email the show and we’ll have Brian answer it in an upcoming episode!

Episode 90 – Never Before Heard

Happy Easter!

In this special edition of the podcast Joe has pulled clips that have, for whatever reason, never been heard before on the show!

All of these segments are from earlier in the podcast when Joe, John and Galan were all still hosting the show.

First, the guys talk to Charlie Herschel (who was on the show to discuss his parenting journey through surrogacy) about his experience playing Survivor over 10 years ago!

Second, the guys talk to photographer Alex J. Martin about his relationship with his dad. (Alex took the photos that were seen in the Dallas Observer back in June 2018)

Lastly, Joe and Galan share their personal stories dealing with Chicken Pox and how now that there is a vaccine it’s interesting how their children will not have a similar experience to them.

No “Ask the Birth Guy” this week but it will return next week.

Enjoy!
