Ep 39: That Next Friday Feeling
from The Dad Brotocol
On this episode of The Dad Brotocol, I’m Zoe — your producer — and yes, I’m the one writing this description after listening to RC and Uncle Chris attempt (and fail) to cleanly record a Friday episode. What starts as a reenactment of their actual text messages quickly turns into a live demonstration of why scheduling this show is always chaos, especially when bagels, dogs, jobs, and Christmas plans get involved. The episode settles into its “Next Friday” identity: a Friday show recorded on a Saturday, released on a Sunday, and somehow still very much about Fridays. The guys run through Did You See That?!, reacting to NFL injuries, strange internet stories, and viral headlines that spiral exactly the way you’d expect. Then they bring back Old vs. Now vs. New, reflecting on what Fridays meant as kids, teenagers, twenty-somethings, and exhausted adults trying to reclaim that small window of freedom at the end of the week. It’s unstructured, nostalgic, argumentative, and very on-brand — and as the producer, I can confirm this is precisely how the show is supposed to feel.
