Your job can disappear in a single announcement. A town can disappear in a single morning. When that happens, it’s not just money on the line, it’s identity, confidence, and the quiet pressure a lot of dads carry to stay “the calm one” no matter what. We trade personal stories of when it all burned down: a sudden layoff with no home lined up, the long and messy road of rebuilding through travel and entrepreneurship, and the shock of watching a hometown get erased by wildfire. Along the way, ...

BEAST LORE
A 10,000-pound boulder, a stage stacked with real cash, and 2,000 contestants trying to read the future with zero info. We’re telling our Beast Games origin story as a squad, sharing the moments that bonded us fast, the hilarious mix-ups that came with the jerseys, and the Vegas “mental math” that had grown adults building alliances around games that never even existed. From Toronto prep to bus-ride puzzles, we get into the culture of sharing and over-preparing, including an early attempt at...

AI Ultraculture: How Beast Industries Becomes the Company Nobody Can Catch
MIT looked at the flood of enterprise AI spending and landed on a brutal headline: about 95% of companies are getting zero return. That’s not because the models are weak. It’s because most organizations are deploying generative AI like a software add-on instead of rewiring how they operate. We get specific about what the 5% do differently, and why “speed of execution” now matters more than having the fanciest tools. We introduce a concept we’re calling AI ultraculture: a workplace where fear...

A Love Letter to the Moms Who Made Us Dads
Father’s Day usually spotlights dads, but we flip the lens to the people who made us fathers and keep our homes functioning when life is loud. We get honest about the mental load and invisible labor: the nonstop tracking of school snacks, appointments, backpacks, soap, schedules, and all the tiny decisions that somehow add up to a second full-time job. We also name the uncomfortable truth that in many families this work defaults to wives and mothers, even when they have demanding careers of t...

Take Me Back to the 90's: I'm Now As Old As My Dad Was
That dial-up modem screech is basically a time machine. We kick things off with a round of “Sound Check,” guessing the most iconic 90s sounds and letting the memories do what they do best: pull us straight back to family computers, busy signals, and the pure impatience of waiting to connect to the internet. From there we go deep on 90s tech and culture that quietly shaped how we think today: the classic Nokia ringtone, Snake, T9 texting, strict monthly text limits, and the sacred “nights and...

Five Charisma Hacks To Change Your Game NOW
The fastest way to level up your leadership is to stop guessing what "good communication" means and start using tools you can actually remember when your heart rate spikes and the cortisol hits. We saw someone selling a $5,000 communication course online — a PDF and a handful of videos — so we built our own and are giving it away for free, including a downloadable PDF and a Claude skill to help you practice. This episode is the walkthrough: our top five communication tips for ambitious ...

Can AI Really Cure My Son?
The DadSquad records in person for the first time, and we use that energy to talk about a hopeful side of AI, where these tools give parents more clarity, speed, and support. We connect AI’s “second brain” benefits to a very real mission: shortening the rare disease diagnostic odyssey and pushing treatments forward for kids like Lucas. • why AI feels like a COO for an ADHD brain and helps turn ideas into action • the difference between in silico, in vitro, and in vivo and why it matters for m...

First Class Father
There’s a weird truth hiding in plain sight: you might be sitting on a small fortune in credit card points and airline miles, and you’re one bad redemption away from turning it into pennies. We dig into the “points economy” and why loyalty programs can be worth more than the airlines themselves, then get brutally practical about how to redeem points for real travel value instead of cash back, gift cards, or sneaky Amazon checkouts. Jordan shares a clear path for three levels of travelers: st...

Break the Mold
You can do everything “right” and still feel like your life does not fit. That tension is where we start, from selling everything and traveling full time to the quieter, tougher choices like turning down a career-defining promotion because your family needs you more than your resume does. We get honest about the scripts dads inherit, the pressure to provide at all costs, and why that story can lead straight to burnout, loneliness, and a version of you your partner barely recognizes. We...

Just Costco Things
You know the feeling: you walk into Costco for paper towels and somehow walk out with 48 pairs of socks, 500 AA batteries, and a mild crisis of identity. We lean all the way into that chaos and ask why Costco hits so different, especially for dads. Somewhere between “I’m here to provide” and “I deserve a little treat,” a quick errand turns into a full process complete with route planning, aisle scanning, and a cart that costs way more than your napkin math predicted. We trade the real storie...

The AI-Supercharged Dad
We talk about the moment an AI-generated goodbye song brought a room of parents to tears, and why that kind of emotional accuracy changes what “AI is capable of” for everyday people. We break down a simple AI fluency framework and share practical prompts, workflows, and safety habits that help us use tools like Claude without getting overwhelmed. • using AI to create meaningful creative work that lands emotionally • why “Grand Canyon moments” with AI are happening faster • how different AI to...

In this episode of DadSquadCast, co-founders Jeff Randall Allen, Jon Wolheim, and Jordan Egbert get radically honest about credit card debt, scarcity mindsets, creator economics, and what "enough" actually means for their families.

Meet the Dad Squad
Ten million dollars makes a great cold open, but it’s a terrible life compass. After Beast Games, we end up with something we didn’t expect: real friendship, a reason to keep talking, and a dad podcast built on brotherhood, mission, and legacy. We joke like idiots, but we don’t dodge the hard stuff, because fatherhood doesn’t let you stay on the surface for long. Jordan shares how he walked away from the “safe” corporate script, built a travel driven life with his wife, and started raising k...
