Adam Flaherty and Marc Checket are two dads from suburban New England. And while they might think they’re pretty funny and cool, the world clearly does NOT need another white dude ramble-cast. That’s why Modern Dadhood explores what it really means to be a "dad" through candid, authentic, and often hilarious conversations with diverse dads of all walks of life… including famous dads, NOT famous dads, dads-to-be, step dads, grand dads, trans dads, and more. By celebrating present, engaged parenting and commiserating over common fatherhood challenges, listeners will gain new perspectives and feel empowered to become more present and mindful fathers, raising the next generation of kick-ass, world changing kids. ​ The show features relatable anecdotes from the hosts' own lives, recurring segments like "Instant Regrets," "Confessions," and "Did I Just Say that Out Loud?" and plenty of thoughts on the good, the bad, and the ridiculous. Expect a healthy dose of laughter, sincerity, vulnerability, and 90s nostalgia in each biweekly episode.

Adam Flaherty and Marc Checket, two dads from suburban New England, are well aware the world doesn't need another podcast where guys just ramble. That self-awareness is precisely what fuels Modern Dadhood. Instead of claiming to have all the answers, they get real about the messy, rewarding, and constantly shifting landscape of fatherhood today. Each episode is built on candid, authentic, and often hilarious conversations that unpack what it means to be a parent now. They sit down with a wonderfully diverse range of voices-from famous fathers to those you'd never hear from otherwise, including stepdads, granddads, and dads-to-be. Listening in feels like pulling up a chair for an honest talk among friends, one where the challenges are met with empathy and the triumphs are genuinely celebrated. This isn't just a show for dads; it's for anyone interested in the modern dynamics of family. You'll hear stories that resonate, practical insights nestled within the laughter, and a refreshingly broad perspective on culture, education, and self-improvement through the lens of parenting. Modern Dadhood moves beyond the superficial to explore the genuine connections and personal growth at the heart of raising kids.
