Best way to consume media

I feel like I joined a movie club with the two funniest people in class.

If the 1931 Frankenstein blew them away . . .

wait till they see Bride of! BTW, Karloff was English. I’m only getting picky because I like your fresh approach to film.

Why ARE Dads?

Came over from YWA and I’m so glad I did. Love all your insight into parental psychology. Can you do Neverending Story sometime? Side note: The TWA-Dads-MPhase trifecta is my life support right now

I just love these people! They’re smart, kind and empathetic. It’s wonderful to listen to two people who care for and respect one another in the way they do. Definitely same for You’re Wrong About. The way they treat each other inspires me to be kinder to myself. I thank you!

Every episode is interesting

I’ve listening to 4 episodes so far and love them all. Some of the movies I’ve never even seen fully just bits and pieces but I can still completely understand the explanations about the dads in the movies. One movie I think would be a good dad movie to unpack in Varsity Blues. So many dumb dad moments in that movie. Love this podcast!

Look forward to listening every week

I love this podcast and get super excited when I see a new upload. Love hearing about the different movie dads and the discussions every week. It makes my work at home mornings more enjoyable!! Couldn’t recommend this podcast more.

Helpfully Funny and Smart

Two smart and funny people talking about the depictions of dads in our media. A lot of fun and it’s been very helpful with putting my own dad in perspective.

Highly recommend

I don’t think I can overstate how much I enjoy this podcast. It reminds me of fun discussions with your favorite professor using pop-culture movies as a springboard. There’s a lot of talk about our favorite pop-culture movie characters, psych, with humor sprinkled throughout. What more do you need?!

Magical

How could their first episode about the campiest film of all time make me boohoo like a baby? I can’t comprehend it, but I did, and it can. We all have issues with Dads. Exploring those issues thru the lens of these iconic, quirky, or dramatic movies really works. Thank you for making a show that is strangely calming, funny and insightful. Unexpectedly magical!

Super podcast and suggestion

Loved the first episode. Good insight, humor...really great. Rewatched “Jaws”later that night with the dad perspective thrown in. My suggestion for one show would be Ron Howard’s 1989 “ Parenthood “. Steve Martin’s character, Gil delivered one line that changed my understanding of my dad forever. “My whole life is ‘have to’.” A movie with a basket full of dads! Keep up the great work and good luck with this podcast!

Honest and Nostalgic!

I’m a huge You’re Wrong About fan and would listen to Sarah Marshall read the phone book (do they still exist?) But this is infinitely more interesting.

Finally!

A podcast that makes Wednesday uploads exciting! I also got here by way of YWA and having twice the weekly ability to listen to Sarah’s graceful & smart intellectual academic renderings of All The Things, NOW FEATURING: MOVIES, makes my heart the happiest. Carry on!

Thoughtful and Beautifully Produced

I am a huge fan of You’re Wrong About and also a big movie buff and yes, I have daddy issues, so this podcast is perfect for me. I love how thoughtful Sarah Marshall is and how she and her cohost use films as a way to talk about fatherhood and masculinity. The music production is gorgeous and haunting making this an all round great listen. I need a break from murder and pandemic right now, Why Are Dads is the perfect balm for my fatigued heart.

Love it!

As a person with a dad, I appreciate this. Thank you for helping me work through my boomer dad trauma with movie dad archetypes! Looking forward to the next episode. ♥️

man. dads.

i tend to scribble sarah quotes. today’s was “emotional intimacy allows us to become greater than the sum of our parts.” my dad died 1.6 years ago and i’m so so so messed up and processing—probs forever—i judiciously avoid any media about dads. i never would’ve heard this podcast, but i love (love, love) sarah on You’re Wrong About, & they played the first episode there. not only did this keep me listening (just one moment longer!) the whole time, but it made me cry in the good way, laugh in the pure-happy way, and then write my first-ever review on the podcast app, despite the fact that i love, uncomplicatedly or not, like, 70 other podcasts. very recommended. (hey sarah & alex—just fyi—you’re not at peace with them after death! ack. sorry.💔)

You’ll want to call your dad.

Do you have a dad, are you a dad, do you know a dad? This pod is for you! New dads, bad dads, absent dads. It’s all here. Sarah & Alex take a deep dive into the complex relationships we have with our dads and their diving bell is media. They've touched on an inventive ways to examine dadhood and their repartee is as entertaining as it is insightful and emotionally stimulating.
