38. 'This Has Been Mostly Tangents' - The Dad Who Made Bombs* (ft. Dan Thomas)

*allegedlyWould you be impressed if a dwarf was playing basketball?Would you be impressed if Max and Joe managed to get Dan Thomas to open up about his dad? Well, get ready to be impressed because they've only gone and bloody done it!Due to Dan's busy, bigshot, BAFTA-winning schedule, we only had time to record two episodes with him, hence this episode being absolutely jam-packed with enough dad content for TWO FULL EPISODES.In the episode, Dan tells all about communicating with David, which includes: their last text exchange, their annual get-together, how many times Dan thinks they've actually broken bread together, David's status as an 'iPad dad,' and the time David came to see the live recording of Dan's comedy special.We also delve into David's hobbies and interests, which include: his stint in the 'Free Wales Army' in his youth, his career in Buddhist literature, holidays in Ibiza, and the one time he made a square pizza.Finally, we come up with a new podcast called 'Tryna Vomit on Bezos,' attempt to work out when Dan was conceived, and do some research into the darkness of humanity. Also in this episode: Dan has a therapeutic breakthrough about his childhood, talks about how he's such a loving father that his children hate him, and tells the stories of the two times he's been on 'Pobol Y Cwm.' Dan and Joe discuss the history of the IRA and Joe reveals that he's getting back into 'doodle jump.'Dan's upcoming movie: https://ihaveabomb.com/Joe and Harri's Edinburgh show: https://freefringe.org.uk/shows/escape-north-wales/Got a dad story for us?Email: [email protected] else: https://linktr.ee/dadtouchpodLogo Design: Alice Evans (@Alicewithapen)Music by: Gino Dada
