Thermostat Wars: We Finally Get Why Dads Defend the A/C with Their Lives

from The Dad Voice Podcast · host The Dad Voice Podcast

From international conflict to the battle over the living room temperature, we are tackling it all in this Dad Blast. We open with major political breaking news: the passing of Senator Lindsey Graham and what his absence means for the political landscape. We also follow up on the increasingly bizarre and sketchy public appearances surrounding Mitch McConnell, what is actually going on behind closed doors in Washington? Then, we take a trip through modern history to break down the ongoing, cyclic tension between the U.S. and Iran. How many times have we been on the brink of conflict with Iran over the years, and why does history keep repeating itself? Finally, we wrap up with the ultimate domestic Dad Gripe: The Thermostat Wars. Why do family members feel the need to adjust the temperature by five degrees every time they walk past the wall? We’re defending the dial and explaining why touching the thermostat without permission is a direct declaration of war in a dad's house. In this episode: Lindsey Graham: Breaking down the passing of South Carolina's most notorious turd. Mitch McConnell Watch: Sifting through his sketchy presence and public statements. U.S. vs. Iran: A look back at our endless cycle of conflict. Dad Gripe of the Week: The sacred law of the household thermostat. NEW TO THE DAD BLAST?
