from Cool Dad Shirt · host Rich and Mike

Send us Fan MailEmoji Battles, Koozie Logic, and the $1 Million NapIt's pure suburban chaos, seasoned with Pop-Tarts, guilt-fueled quesadillas, and one man’s war with his paper towel dispenser. This week, we're diving into the deep, dark world of emoji management, where a single borderline inappropriate icon can haunt your "recently used" panel for 60 days! Hear about the tactical use of other emojis to push out the offending one and a hilarious family text mishap involving a puff of smoke instead of a sad face.Plus, get ready for some serious dad dilemmas:Road Rage with Siri: Does your car's navigation system pressure you into running a red light? You're not alone!The Cold Beverage Commitment: Find out why carrying a koozie (or is it a cozy?) in your pocket—even at a restaurant—is a total game-changer for one dedicated cold-drink enthusiast.Force of Habit: The physics of paper towel rolls... The simple terror of accidentally buying full-size paper towels after a decade of select-a-size-induced wrist action.The Great Underwear Announcement: A very confident declaration from one dad that was met with applause.The Sound Man Confessional: Hear the top three insulting/confusing things a sound man is asked, including being mistaken for the DJ or, worse, the waiter!Bee Redemption: From unintentional bee slayer to full-blown honey advocate. Finally, we talk about the mystery of an opening car trunk solved (it's not low bass frequencies, sadly) , the surprising shame of an oversized chicken quesadilla , and the real story behind the "spend the night in a negative 24.9 dB room for $1,000,000" challenge.Stick around for the Cool Dad Tip of the Week: how to fund your retirement with a 2% cash-back credit card —it's like forced savings and free money!Esquire raves: "The Cool Dad Shirt podcast is marginally entertaining, sometimes funny, and strangely appealing to hot moms".

The Zack Arnold Podcast Zack Arnold Hi I'm Zack, and the purpose of my work is to help you find meaning and purpose in yours (without burning out...or selling your creative soul).If you've built your entire career around your creativity like I have, you may be asking the same question I am: Is there a future for us “creatives,” Or is it game over? I can't promise that I know what the future brings, but I do promise few are working harder to find the answers than I am.You're in the right place if:You live to create. Your work isn't just a job but an expression of who you are.You create to live. Your livelihood depends on your creativity.You love making cool shit (preferably left alone in small, dark rooms).Whether you identify as introverted or neurodivergent (or both, like me)...No matter if you're a misfit, a rebel, an outlier, or a troublemaker...If you've been called weird, nerdy, dorky, quirky, or awkward...Or if you’re an over-thinker, procrastinator, or perfectionist…You are welcome here. 😊Come join me a Explicit Don't Salt My Game | With Laura Thomas, PhD Laura Thomas, PhD Join Registered Nutritionist and Wellness Advocate Laura Thomas, PhD for conversations with game changers. Laura talks to people in wellness, foodies, bloggers, entrepreneurs from cool brands, creatives, nutritionists, doctors, body positivity people, mindfulness experts, and anyone else who is shaking up the wellness world, to find out how they stay on top of their game – and to help you do you, but better. It's not all headstands and courgetti though - she and her guests aren't afraid to dig deep into the darker side of wellness and WILL call BS on weird, faddy trends, that don't have any legitimacy or scientific merit.

Explicit Read/Watch/Play J2C2 Productions Welcome to Read/Watch/Play, a biweekly podcast about books, movies, and games. It's a veritable cornucopia of culture. A culture-copia, if you will. For each series of episodes, we'll pick a theme, exemplified by one book, one movie, and one game. We'll spend one episode discussing each piece of media on its own, then swing back to discuss all three in relation to the theme as a whole. Topics are announced a month in advance, if you'd like to read/watch/play along with us. If you'd rather not, that's cool too; the beginning of every episode is totally spoiler-free. It's like a super-relaxed book club, but then also two other clubs, which are about movies and games instead of books. Whether you're in it for the long haul or just sticking around until the spoiler break, we hope you enjoy the show as much as we enjoy making it. Explicit
