Odd Dad Out

Back from my break to move into our new house. We aren't totally settled in yet but we are at least in the new house. Just making this move reminded me of how much of an adventure moving is, and how much my pro skill at moving has dive bombed over the years. Hosted on Acast.

It's a fun night with family. This week I am joined by my wife ReAnna, oldest sister MG (Raevyn Lunatic), her husband Derek (Rev. Knuckleface), and her son Glenn (Fabulous the 2nd.) For the occasion we cracked open a bottle of "God's Pillow" from the "Clockwork Chemists", and Angry Orchard "Iceman."By the nature of our family, we just start talking about whatever comes to mind. Just because we have so much fun hanging out we went on for-ev-er... Topics ranged from our grandparents deaths to "Alf" to "Game of Thrones." Believe it or not the alcohol has nothing to do with our behavior. We are just like this when we get together.

*Update: This is a corrected version of this episode. My sincerest apologies. Thank you to Andrew on Facebook for pointing out that the original episode cut off and restarted mid way *I'm getting a little "Meta" this week. (Is that how you use that?) This week I'm taking on podcasting as a virus / addiction. I go from initial infection of the podcasting bug, to infecting others, to growing into the podcaster strain and replicating it and spreading to even more people. Whether you're just consuming or are creating, there is no escaping it. Once you've been infected with the podcast, there's no going back, and I wouldn't have it any other way.Subscribe and Rate on iTunesFollow me on Twitter @odddadoutSupport the "Odd Dad Out Podcast" and "Mom and Dad Cuss" at patreon.com/odddadout Hosted on Acast.

I'm just gonna say it, I suck at social Media. This week I explain my love/hate... mostly hate relationship with social media. From Myspace to Snapchat and everything in between, I am a millennial failure. I am also quite aware of the hypocrisy of sharing this podcast about hating social media to ALL my social media platforms. But hey, I have to spread the word somehow.

This week I tell the tale of my love for cooking and where it began. From burning my hands on a cookie sheet to making fresh pizza from scratch every week. Join me as I share one of my truly favorite things. It may not be the funniest story, but it's most definitely a piece of the puzzle that shaped this odd dad.Subscribe and Rate on iTunesFollow me on Twitter @odddadoutSupport the "Odd Dad Out Podcast" and "Mom and Dad Cuss" at Patreon.com/odddadout Hosted on Acast.

This week I think back on my childhood TV habits and talk about some of the shows I used to watch. Then I look at some of the shows that we share with our children now. From watching "Rugrats" to singing along with "RuPaul's Drag Race," our boys seem to have a pretty well rounded television exposure. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Automobile RageI'm back after a week off to deal with a severe case of "fucking tired" combined with a hint of "don't know what to talk about" to bring you this week's rant about cars. Specifically I'm talking about the stupidity of the "tuner" culture and the compulsion to "supe up" your car. No history lesson this week, just a plain old school Odd Dad Out bitching. Enjoy... or don't, I'm not the boss of you... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

What do 90% of nerds have in common? COFFEE!! True nerds love coffee and research. As I am a nerd, what could be more fitting than researching coffee? This week we learn a bit about coffee and make fun of the strange history and haters of the "Wine of the Bean." Read more at http://odddadout.blogspot.com Hosted on Acast.

I think this is going to go down as the Superbowl of WTF.Ok, it's established that I don't "like" sports especially, but that doesn't stop me from watching "The Big Game" on principle. After all you don't have to care about the teams to appreciate the event. There is always plenty to enjoy and ridicule besides the football game anyway. (Incidentally I had to actually do research for some of this info.)Full show notes at odddadout.blogspot.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week I'm solo again. For the most part I just get on a revolving door of what I do all this for. I really do love making this show and appreciate everybody who listens. I don't care if I get famous or popular, just knowing that anyone out there willingly invites my thoughts into their sound space is rewarding enough. Also don't be an asshole... Hosted on Acast.

Once again, my wife ReAnna joins me on the show. For all her complaining about the time I spend doing this, she does have a good time being on the show. Tonight she joins me for an extra long episode to go over a bit of the news of the week, and some of our personal happenings."The 69 Club"In the last few weeks 3 highly influential English celebrities have died of cancer at the age of 69•Lemmy Kilmister: Dec 28, 2015- Singer/ Bassist for metal band Motorhead. Died 4 days after his 70th birthday from brain cancer diagnosed only 2 days before his death. Due to an online petition, the Jack Daniels and Coke has been officially named the "Lemmy."•David Bowie: Jan 10, 2016- Singer (Ziggy Stardust), songwriter, record producer, actor, painter.

Died from pancreatic cancer discovered after a minor stroke. Many have used Twitter to pa

Tonight I planned to talk about harvesting oranges, the craziness of the weather this winter, and the full blown force of El Niño. Fortunately I did NOT spend 30 minutes talking about the weather and got sidetracked into complaining about HOA's. I also realize that I am terrible at perceiving the basic passage of time, or my age, or whatever age I'm supposed to be.• It's winter time. That means harvesting season for the citrus in Arizona. I've been slowly working on picking all the oranges from my tree. I've gotten about 150 lbs down already and probably have another 200 to go. In the mean time winter has officially reared it's head and there are blizzards in some parts of the country. Northern Arizona has actually gotten 30 inches of SNOW in the last week. Some towns are nearly inaccessible because of the ice and snow on the mountain roads. Of course down here in Phoenix that just means it's been raining for 4 days straight with 40 degree temps. I realize that is warm for a lot of places, but for us here

Goodbye 2015, Hello 2016!For the first show of the new year, I am giving a quick recap of where we've been on this crazy little podcast, and where I want to go with things in the new year.It's time to look back on the year that's past and forward into my plans and goals for the podcast in 2016.•Found Spreaker App for Android, allowed live streaming and recording of a podcast from my phone. (totally not a paid plug)•July 22, 2015- Spur of the moment broadcast first Odd Dad Out Podcast live from my car while driving home from work. (My apologies to anyone who's listened to it.) I had no clue what I was doing, and used a Skyrim ringtone and canned audience for the intro. That actually stuck for a few shows.•August 6- Episode 3: "Rowdy" show, recorded the night before son #4 was born. First time actually using notes for a show. Took 3 tries to record and left me completely exhausted the next morning when it was time to have the baby.•Episode 4: First and so far only show with a co-host. Recorded show with my wife

Support the show at patreon.com/odddadoutTonight I explain once again why it is that I'm weeks behind a regular show schedule (food poisoning.) I talk a bit about my younger brother coming to visit for the holidays-ish. Then we dig into my personal feelings about the happy holidays vs merry Christmas issue and my general view of the holiday season.Full show notes at odddadout.wordpress.com Hosted on Acast.

In a strange twist, I actually keep to a single topic tonight. I discuss people and how we are drawn to different people or groups based on circumstance, tastes, hobbies, or being complete opposites. Maybe not the most complete thoughts, but when do I really have those? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Coming off a 3 week string of illnesses, I get the snowball rolling tonight with a rant about wearing pajamas as normal clothes in public. Later on things twist into how we are all so attached to our smart phones. Finally I end up talking about my podcast habits and my educational resources for trying to improve this show.

This week I find myself talking about this wonderful state that I call home. Out of nowhere I end up just talking about Arizona and how I view it as opposed to how outsiders see things. *Remember, I don't plan this out.* Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's been 2 months since the last episode, but that is all in the past now. I'm back and ranty and ready to get back in the ring for another go. *Note: 2 In-show references to sound effects that did not show up on final recording, my bad. #idon'tedit Hosted on Acast.
