Tom Langan and Jake Westerbeck embark on a comedic and positive outlook on the ups and downs of fatherhood. One a father of a blended family with 4 kids, the other a newer father at an older age with the second child on the way share examples, stories, advice, questions and answers including engagement with their audience to be the best dads that they can be.
In this special Christmas-themed episode of Papa Do Preach: The Dad Podcast, we’re joined by the crew from the Rowdy Friends Podcast as Lane Oliver sits down with us for a festive, laugh-filled crossover episode. The dads swap stories about growing up with different holiday traditions, how Christmas looked in their households, and how those traditions have (or haven’t) carried over into dad life today.
The conversation takes some hilarious turns as we reminisce about snowy holidays, childhood chaos, and unforgettable moments like tackling snowmen, winter mischief, and other wild stories that could only happen during the holidays. Just when things couldn’t get more fun, a surprise guest makes a return to the show, adding even more laughs, nostalgia, and unexpected twists. It’s a warm, rowdy, and relatable holiday episode full of dad humor, memories, and Christmas chaos you won’t want to miss. 🎄🎙️

EPISODE 26: THE ANIMAL WHISPERER? feat. Sean Austin
In this episode of Papa Do Preach: The Dad Podcast, we sit down with our friend Sean Austin for a wide-ranging, laugh-filled conversation about the realities of fatherhood. Sean shares what it’s really like growing up alongside your kids while raising them in sports—the wins, the lessons, and the moments that matter most along the way. Things take a hilarious turn as Sean recounts his truly horrible streak of luck with animals, proving that not every dad story goes according to plan. And of course, no episode would be complete without our fan-favorite segment, Grumpy Old Men, where our trio leans into their inner curmudgeons for plenty of relatable complaints and big laughs. It’s an episode packed with heart, humor, and the kind of dad talk every parent can appreciate.

EPISODE 25: DAD-JITSU feat. Spencer Selmon
This week on Papa Do Preach, we sit down with the one and only Spencer Selmon, the mind (and muscle) behind Swamp Fox Jiu-Jitsu, for a conversation that’s equal parts insightful, unhinged, and laugh-out-loud dad-core.
We dive into the serious side of fatherhood as Spencer breaks down what it really means to protect your kids, both physically and mentally. But in true dad-podcast fashion, we don’t stay serious for long. Soon we’re swapping ridiculous stories about the “animals” we call our children, celebrating the strangely emotional journey of owning a Roomba, and debating whether a robot vacuum counts as part of the family.
Of course, no episode is complete without our fan-favorite recurring segments:
This Week in Dadding — where we discover just how many things can go wrong in seven days.
Grumpy Old Men — where we come face-to-face with the alarming (and hysterical) reality that it takes almost nothing to set us off anymore.
It’s an episode full of hilariously relatable dad-rage, unexpected wisdom, and the kind of chaotic storytelling only dads can deliver.
New episode drops every other Wednesday for the holidays — don’t miss out!
