Pappy Hour E18 w/ Scott Tibbits

Scott Tibbitts shows up and immediately proves why people still tell stories about working for him. On day one at his company, every new hire had to tell a joke — and it had to land. No laugh, you came back the next day and tried again. That’s Scott in a nutshell: high standards, sharp wit, and zero wasted motion.He talks about parenting with that same edge and honesty. The wins, the misses, the pivots. The moments you nail it and the moments you hope your kid forgets. Scott built companies, led teams, and chased big ideas, but fatherhood forced a different level of truth: you can’t outsmart the work, and you can’t coast on charm.This one moves fast. It’s funny, blunt, and full of those lines you think about later.If the episode hits, drop a comment and leave a review.
