Happy Halloween from a Dad Who Takes This Holiday Very Seriously — Plus the Scariest Thing About Parenting
from The Unhinged Father · host The Unhinged Father
It's Halloween Eve. Robbie's in an orange shirt. There's a skeleton mask on the bed behind him. His family has had decorations up since mid-September when it was still 110 degrees outside. He's been mapping the trick-or-treat route with his kids for weeks. He takes this holiday seriously and he is not embarrassed about it.This is a fun, seasonal episode that doubles as a real reflection on fear — the kind you enjoy at haunted houses, the kind that creeps in at 3am in a dark backyard, and the kind that comes with being responsible for little humans who are growing up faster than you're ready for.Topics covered: why Robbie and his wife are Halloween people and what that looks like with young kids, haunted houses, scary movies, and the specific kind of fear he actually enjoys, watching his two-year-old finally be old enough to knock on doors and say trick or treat, and the quieter reflection underneath the holiday fun about the passage of time as a parent.Send a message about the episode!
