Summary

It's a movie about a big, messy sweetie who can't get out of his own way and all of the folks who suffer as a result. We talk The Wrestler, alcoholic dads, and more with the wonderful Gaby Dunn. You can Gaby on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/gabyroad/?hl=en) and on TikTok (https://www.tiktok.com/@dabygunn)! We made a playlist to accompany this episode (https://open.spotify.com/playlist/43sFU90lVBiLXKDoNuwNvt?si=IJj4Uk_7TuuzeZeviTrGyQ)! It's comprised of songs that come to mind when we all think about this movie. Why Are Dads (https://www.podpage.com/why-are-dads/) is a show in which hosts Sarah Marshall and Alex Steed attempt to understand what the hell it means to be the grown children of dads and other dad-like figures. And, as they do with all difficult subject matter, they do so by looking through a pop culture lens. You can find us on Twitter (https://twitter.com/whyaredads), Instagram (https://instagram.com/whyaredads) and Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/whyaredads). You can find producer and music director Carolyn Kendrick's music here. (fanlink.to/ctuc) She's also on Twitter (https://twitter.com/carekendrick). Ethan Hawkins of Corner House (https://cornerhouse1.bandcamp.com/) accompanied her on her rendition of The Wrestler. Fresh Lesh (https://www.freshlesh.com/) produces the beats for our episodes. Abigail Swartz of Gray Day Studio (https://www.graydaystudio.com/) designed our logo!

Hello, Sarah Marshall. Hello, Alex Steve. What are we listening to? What is what is the person

0:12.0

who's listening to this listening to? Nice save. We're listening to a lot of hair

0:19.6

metal because we are watching the wrestler today with Gabby Dunn. Hell yeah. You're listening

0:25.4

to wire dads, which is a show in which we talk about feelings and emotions and having

0:32.0

been people raised with or without dads and we talk about what that means. We got some

0:37.7

interesting feedback recently because we released our Dark Knight episode on the You're

0:42.2

Wrong About Feed. I know somebody over there that is me. And I saw someone be like, oh,

0:49.0

wow, I thought your show was only about bad dads. So I didn't listen before. And then

0:53.4

I just find that interesting. I mean, I can't say that they should have thought it was

1:00.4

about something else because I still find the title mysterious. I don't know. Yeah, I think

1:05.4

it's just interesting that like the way the word dad is freighted with feelings makes

1:10.4

some people assume that like cultural conversations about it just have to be in a certain light.

1:15.4

It's a real roach act test for sure, because I think about it a lot. It brings a lot of

1:26.3

So I think a lot about what words imply versus what they are actually meant to say. And

1:34.1

I think I think at the front end of the show, we thought a lot about talking explicitly

1:39.8

about dads. And then we realized that that was just an avenue for talking about bigger

1:45.8

things like why our friend Randy the Ram can get out of his own fucking way for a Randy.

1:51.4

We love Randy. I've thought of Randy many times since he recorded. Oh my God. Me too.

1:58.2

Can I read to you a little something that Carolyn was reading? And she brought to my attention

2:03.7

in the context of this show. Yeah. So we have in the past had your great friend and a person

who I enjoy quite a bit. That sounds so weird. Look, I'm being passive. We can both be
