#215: Smoke and Rear View Mirrors

[INSERT SOMEWHAT INTERESTING AND VAGUELY RELEVANT IMAGE HERE ]

I don’t usually listen to “Mommy Podcasts,” mostly because I’m not, you know, a mommy.  But, I got a listener e-mail from a woman named Heather.  She and her friend have a podcast.  Turns out, Naptime Radio (naptimeradio.com) is very funny.  You should listen to it.  I’m not against mommy shows as you might assume from this episode, it’s just that I’m a daddy, so the mommy thing usually escapes me.  Frankly, to be fair, I don’t listen to daddy casts either.  I don’t need to hear other guys talking about diapers and bottles and making lame sports analogies.  Shoot me now.

My old and dear friend Jeff Newland stopped in for this episode.  With Jeff and I spending an hour chatting at the dining table before recording, and then not giving Hudson a mic while we were recording, the podcast is a disaster.  Hopefully, at the very least, I learned something.  What, I have no idea.

I THINK the old recording of Hudson is from  “#44: Addict’s Frankenshow Monster!”  (June 2005). I’m not sure.  I can’t remember back that far.

Jeff Newland is the President of Rochester Mentors and Director of the Boomer Mentor Program of Lifespan of Rochester.

My blog is acting up again, so no links.  Sorry.

  1. Proud to be one of the 14! Seriously, I hear what you say Dan about the sibling rivalry – I have the same dynamic here, though ours are only 17 months apart. The strange thing is if there is one adult to one child (either), it’s fine and even one adult to 2 kids. But 2 adults to 2 kids is like all out war!! I think the thing is with a daughter who’s younger than the son, often there is a closer bond between father and son at an earlier age and it’s like the girls feel they need to fight for attention etc. Just an observation this, but you seem to spend a lot more quality time with the H Man than T – video projects etc and I suspect Tallulah picks up on this and feels she needs to fight hard for attention, especially as you seem to be the main parent on a day to day basis, hence the issues you have.

    What I found works is making time for quality one-on-one time with my daughter. Hard to do for sure these days, but worth the effort.

  2. Dan,

    I love listening to your show.

    The reason you need to make the images twice as big now is because the iPhone 4 has a higher res screen. The first iPhones had a Web res screen and the iPhone 4 has a print res screen. So basically if have a 1 pixel line it now has to be a 2 pixel line.

    Keep the shows coming!
