Jeremy Crittenden returns to chat with Brian for both the episode’s opening segment, and for this week’s Go Ask Your Dad. He talks about being a two-time divorcee, why each of his two marriages ended, and how he’s defining the post-marriage part of his life. Brian asks him, as a former bartender, for help deshaming a particular drink choice of his. They share their excitement over the current Broadway theatre season. The Hookup of the Week comes from a listener who enjoys the ride of his life in the backseat of a driverless robotaxi. Jeremy then leaves Brian to welcome political strategist and founder of Oath, Brian Derrick to the podcast. Recording the episode on National Coming Out Day, the Brians share their college coming out stories, and guest Brian explains how it was coming out that inspired him to shift gears from pursuing a medical career to a political one. He describes how his platform, Oath, helps people ensure that the money they donate to political causes is going where it can be most effective, and talks about the importance of optimism, the difference between hope and certainty, and what can be done to correct the current political trajectory sooner than later. He admits to two Daddy Issues: one personal, his penchant for Daddies, and one political, that half the country believes Trump to be their literal Daddy and is completely sub for him. He also talks about his dating life, his relationship with the apps, and how he meets people in person. Before leaving the basement, guest Brian points out the midterm races that Democrats have the potential to win that could make a significant impact, explains why every single race on the ballot is important, and pleads that nobody should leave any vote blank. Jeremy then returns to help Brian respond to a Go Ask Your Dad question from a listener who is starting to enter the leather community and wants help relocating his confidence when it suddenly disappears.

Brian welcomes actor and comedian Jeremy Crittenden to the podcast as this week’s guest co-host. Jeremy talks about his acceptance of his Daddyness, and his appreciation for conversations with Daddies since nobody prepares us for the changes that happen later in life. In honor of National Coming Out Day, the two share their coming out stories. Brian explores whether his low libido of late has anything to do with stress, not the least of which comes from bringing a new puppy into the family. The Hookup of the Week comes from a listener whose hookup was so good, he made the recording from his car seconds after finishing. Brian and Jeremy then welcome to the podcast Canadian comedian, writer and producer, best known as Kip’s BFF Shawn on Heated Rivalry, Brandon Ash-Mohammed! Brandon shares his non-coming out story and talks about the supportive environment in which he grew up, he gives the origin story of his three-year relationship with his boyfriend, talks about how he got into stand-up comedy, and gives a peek into his work as Head Writer on Canada’s Drag Race, his role on Heated Rivalry and more. Brandon also tells Brian and Jeremy what makes him good at expressing love for others, what it’s like to be an introverted stand-up and struggles with the question of whether he should move from Toronto to New York for many reasons, a significant one being the difference in how racism presents itself in Canada versus the US. Brandon then helps Brian and Jeremy respond to a Go Ask Your Dad question from a listener separating from his husband and struggling with their continued relationship and logistical entanglements.

Brian welcomes content creator Guy Woof back to Dads and Daddies after almost two years. Guy recounts his recent family trip to Thailand and talks about his next trip, when he will travel to Las Vegas to teach porn creators how to make safe-for-work videos for Instagram and TikTok. The two compare notes on how they share the details of their sex-positive lives with their parents. Guy gives Brian some advice about how to present himself on the apps. The Hookup of the Week finds a listener realizing the existence of his inner Daddy and letting him loose when hooking up with another Daddy. Guy gets competitive about whether he or Brian is the bigger Broadway show queen, and admits his aspiration to play Romeo in & Juliet on Broadway before it closes. He shares his recent dalliances with supposed straight men. He delves deep into what it is like to live as an Israeli in the US, the assumptions that are made about him, and the work he has to do to convince people that he does not support the war, Israel’s oppression of Palestine and all of the killing. After a break, Guy shares his current Daddy Issue, which is his need to examine the role of poppers in his life, his desire for a relationship, and what he does and doesn’t prioritize when meeting potential partners. The episode ends with Guy helping Brian respond to a Go Ask Your Dad question from a listener frustrated that everyone he meets on the apps has already slept with people in his friend circle.

Brian is thrilled to discover that his crush, the immensely popular and supremely funny comedian Joe Dombrowski, is a listener and avid clip-watcher of Dads and Daddies. Joe comes to Brooklyn from Seattle and sits down with Brian to share his aspirations to become PTA president; his evolution from Joey, the fraternity brother, to Joe, the schoolteacher and now comedic star; and how he almost tanked any potential of a relationship with his now husband on their first date. Joe joins Brian in listening to the Hookup of the Week, which comes from Bear Week in Provincetown and centers around the discovery of a unique and likely self-appointed brand ambassador. Brian’s conversation with Joe picks back up to talk about the evolution of both his material and his audience, the support he received from Ellen DeGeneres, the major decision to make comedy his full-time career, and his life now as a father to a ten month-old baby. He talks about his distaste for parents on the internet who make it look like having kids is pain-free, he helps Brian respond to a Go Ask Your Dad question from a listener struggling to speak with his husband about their sex life, and he challenges Brian to answer the question “Who is your favorite Drag Race queen of all time?” Find Joe Dombrowski on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/joe_dombrowski/ Email your Hookup of the Week, Go Ask Your Dad and Dr. Daddy submissions to dadsanddaddies@gmail.com Dads and Daddies on the Web: https://www.dadsanddaddies.com/ Dads and Daddies on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dadsanddaddiespod Dads and Daddies on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@dadsanddaddiespod Dads and Daddies on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/dadsanddaddiespod.bsky.social Your hosts, Dad Brian Rubin-Sowers - https://www.instagram.com/ditmasparkpapa and Daddy Judson Morrow - https://www.instagram.com/gunclejudson Edited by Toby Rubin-Sowers For a 10% discount on your purchase on a Shakti Acupressure Mat or any other items at ShakitMat.com, use code DADSANDDADDIES or simply visit the URL https://shaktimat.com/DadsAndDaddies Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Brian welcomes Boyslut author Zachary Zane back to the podcast, this time as guest co-host! Zachary recaps his “proper gay summer” and the two compare thoughts about their favorite gay vacation destinations, and the insecurities that come along with visiting each. Brian recreates the steam room hookups of his younger days with his husband, and both Zachary and Brian’s husband help him reframe his thinking around finishing quickly. The Hookup of the Week comes from a visitor to New York whose supposed threesome also includes a mysterious fourth. Brian and Zachary then welcome GayVN and Grabby award-nominated Daddy Patrick who, at 63, is new to being an adult performer and model, and who, two years into his latest career, wrote and directed the new gay western porn series, Drifters, which features, among many others, previous Dads and Daddies guests Joel Someone and Jonah Wheeler. Patrick shares how he came to start a porn career at 61, and how it evolved from making collabs for OnlyFans and JustForFans to writing, directing and performing in a 14-episode series for Ducati Studios. He compares his pre-60 corporate life to his life now in adult entertainment, he talks about what kind of Daddy he aims to be, how he imbues the porn he creates with intimacy, and about his conviction that gay men need to unlearn the instinct to be judgemental and instead to treat each other with kindness. Patrick also helps Brian and Zachary respond to a Go Ask Your Dad question from a listener who is curious if aging means we have to give up our sexual pursuits.

Judson says goodbye for now to Dads and Daddies for an as-yet-undetermined amount of time to seek treatment for bipolar depression. Brian welcomes Cats: The Jellicle Ball’s Rum Tum Tugger, Sydney James Harcourt, back to the podcast, this time as guest co-host. Sydney recaps the insanely busy five months since his last appearance on the show, from Tony Awards season through Pride Month to the recording of the Jellicle Ball cast album to Rosie O’Donnell becoming his biggest fan and inviting him onto “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” while she was guest hosting, to the release of his first single, “Deviant.” He shares the origins of his electronic music collective, FēRL, of the song itself and its message about celebrating all forms of sex without shame. He also addresses the question on everybody’s mind–whether or not he will launch an OnlyFans. Brian shares both his own Daddy Issue, and his own Hookup of the Week. The actual Hookup of the Week comes from a listener who meets a DL Side on Sniffies and finds their repeat hookup taking a surprising turn. Brian and Sydney are then joined by comedian Quin Lamar. Quin talks about his transition from Michigan to New York via a three-year detour to Berlin, he shares how his parents raised him to have a love of comedy, his thoughts on truth in stand-up, and how he is able to imbue sex positivity into his shows because of the pride he takes in being a slut. He also delves into his marriage, and how his and his husband’s individual evolutions over their ten years together eventually led to divorce. Quin shares his distaste for concerts, what it means to live life as a serial monogamist slut, and his insights into the sexual challenges his straight friends face. To close, Quin helps Brian and Sydney respond to a Go Ask Your Dad question from a listener who is struggling to love his bigger body.

Brian and Judson prepare for this week’s premiere of “The Traitors: New Blood” on NBC and Peacock featuring Dads and Daddies friend and former guest (Season 2, Episode 31), the brilliant immigration attorney and anti-ICE activist Michael Foote as a contestant. Judson returns from a destination wedding in Portugal with gay beach and bathhouse recommendations. Brian succeeds in making his first “hotwifing” experience happen, where he brought together his husband and a previous hookup and watched them hookup together. The Hookup of the Week finds a trans woman taking a leap of faith that results in a magical night. Brian and Judson are then joined by actor Barrett Foa, known for his 12 seasons on “NCIS: Los Angeles” and for his current stint on Broadway playing Mary’s Teacher opposite Bowen Yang in Oh, Mary! Barrett talks about how he has found himself on Broadway after an almost 20-year absence, what it was like to work opposite Meg Stalter and what a happy return it has been after a dozen years working on a crime procedural TV show teeming with alpha male energy. He shares the dilemma he faced as a gay actor on a hit show at the time that celebrities began to come out of the closet in force, and how he found the freedom to live fully out and proud through his discovery of Burning Man. He shares his NCIS co-star Chris O’Donnell’s reaction to learning how important he was to some gay men’s sexual awakenings; he recounts how Burning Man brought him together with his partner of three years who is deaf; and he delves deep into his Daddy Issue with a father who is incapable of giving compliments.Barrett also tells Brian and Judson about his friendship with Kylie Minogue, the incredible work of Every Day Action, the nonprofit of which he’s a founding member and board VP, and he helps respond to a Go Ask Your Dad question from a listener whose fiance has just passed away and its looking for guidance on grieving.

Judson attends his 25-year high school reunion. Brian begins his attempts to schedule “hotwifing” sessions with two of his favorite hookup partners, one session where he would watch his husband with another man, and one where his husband would watch him. The hookup of the week finds a listener and his partner enjoying some of the best kept secrets one port has to offer while on a family cruise. Brian and Judson are then joined by Andrew Abel, founder and creative director of Gay Tired Hopeful, which "explores the patterns shaping modern queer life, from identity and intimacy to culture, work, and belonging, and the things we’re all quietly trying to figure out." Andrew describes how his professional and personal lives converged to drive him to create Gay Tired Hopeful, shares how his social media post questioning why gay men always act like there’s someone better drove its current popularity, and delves into why ‘Tired’ is an important part of the platform’s name. He also talks about cruising in forests, being raised without rules, and identifying as polyamorous while married to someone who may not be. In closing, Andrew joins Brian and Judson in responding to a Go Ask Your Dad question from a listener who is new to topping and has much he’s curious about, particularly when it comes to living up to bottoms’ standards at his regular batthouse.
