Are You There Pod? It's Me, Dad

This week things get weird, Alex tries too many analogies, and we welcome newest dad Christopher onto the show.

Alex finds a routine in juggling the same three balls over and over and over again. Except that every night is also The Purge.

Alex becomes an actual dad this week. Whoa. He starts by covering what the day-of was like before calling up his friend Jordan to compare notes on everything they didn't know about birth & delivery.

In the premier episode, Alex sits down to collect his thoughts hours before heading into the hospital with his wife to begin the induction process. He also calls up his friend Peter to check in after his daughter was born just six days earlier.

Welcome to Are You There Pod? It's Me, Dad. This isn't a parenting podcast. It's more like a diary about becoming a parent...in real time. Every week host Alex Ward recaps the previous week's adventures in raising a new human. Along the way he calls up his fellow freshly-babied friends to swap stories & discoveries, all in hopes of keeping an intimate record that his future kid will surely not care about.
