Summary

Joe Dombrowski is back and now he’s officially in his Dad on Arrival era. We talk about everything from becoming a parent through surrogacy to how fatherhood completely changed the way he looks at comedy, touring, and life in general. Joe opens up about how hard it was going back on the road after having his son, the identity shift that happens when you become a parent, and why he’s intentionally slowing down his career to focus on family. We also talk about his comedy special Dad on Arrival and how becoming a dad has shaped this next chapter of his comedy. Joe shares why he’s stepping back into comedy clubs, finding his voice again, and focusing on building a career that feels sustainable for both him and his family.
