#Throwback: The Dad Network feat. Aldo Alowishus III
The Father Hoods spin back another throwback packed with laughs, lessons, and straight-from-the-heart Dad talk! DJ EFN, Manny Digital, and KGB welcome another longtime listener and father of three, Aldo Alowishus, into the booth for a conversation that feels more like a family reunion than a podcast. Aldo breaks down how he discovered the show through Cypha Sounds and why Father Hoods instantly became a space he could relate to, especially after an episode on sibling rivalry hit close to home and made him reflect on his own childhood and the kind of bond he wants his kids to have. From there, the episode weaves through real-life fatherhood moments: sibling beefs at home and KGB opening up about his son’s need to be heard sparking a deeper conversation about truly paying attention to our kids. Aldo shares how his parenting style shifted once his kids hit puberty, while the crew digs into the pros and cons of kids having devices, internet access, and how boredom (or the lack of it) shapes them. The Dads also talk setting boundaries with tech, teaching street smarts in an AI-heavy world, and finding balance in a generation moving fast. The episode closes with Aldo showing love to Father Hoods as more than a podcast calling it a real community where dads can show up, share openly, and be fathers first, titles second. What You’ll Hear in This Episode: [00:04:23] Sibling Saga [00:09:20] Fatherhood Circle [00:15:40] Rivalry Realness [00:21:55] Teenage Trials [00:27:23] Screen Time Rules [00:33:55] No-Tech Mode [00:40:36] Raising Streetwise Kids Why Hit Play: Fatherhood raw and unfiltered! DJ EFN, Manny Digital, and KGB break it down—lessons, laughs, and life truths you feel in your chest. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
