Episode 4: Why Every Dad Needs a Guys’ Trip

Welcome back to Dad Livin’ — the podcast built for dads, by dads. In this episode, the crew dives into one of the most underrated secrets to fatherhood survival: the guys’ trip. From baseball weekends in Chicago to questionable motels in Kentucky to discovering the best margaritas in Pittsburgh, the dads swap stories from nearly 16 years of man trips. They share why stepping away isn’t just about fun — it’s about mental health, keeping friendships alive, and recharging so you can show up better as a dad and husband. Expect laughs, a little chaos, and maybe some ideas for your own dad getaway (or at least a margarita recipe to keep on deck). Whether you’re a new dad, seasoned dad, or just trying to survive bedtime routines, this episode reminds you that sometimes the best way to be present at home is to step away for a bit.
