Back-to-back throwback vibes this week as the Father Hoods crew gets real about fatherhood, friendship, and staying true to the culture. DJ EFN kicks things off with stories from his Art Basel trip, giving props to the people who helped him along the way, while breaking down the challenge of balancing fatherhood with the grind. He keeps it 100 about always putting his kids first, even while figuring out how to juggle being a present Dad and staying loyal to his crew. Manny and DJ EFN get candid about dad guilt, carving out safe spaces with their homies, and why laughter and inside jokes hit different when you’re grown and raising kids. They also dive into the importance of maintaining those old-school friendships, built long before fatherhood.

DJ EFN shared some heartwarming moments, such as one of his eldest godkids visiting him on a Drink Champs episode, showcasing how the next generation is embracing the culture. He also shares the vision for “Kid Champs”, a book designed to inspire kids to be champions in their own lives—bringing that same energy and passion to the younger crowd without the drinks. Fatherhood, friendship, and legacy collide in this throwback episode, giving listeners real talk, laughs, and life lessons straight from the heart.
