Welcome to Episode #30 of The WHISKIEE Podcast, where the Rode is childproof and the stream is Gandalf (and DMCA) free! The Dads explore the story behind The Lost Distillery company, a whiskey company that honors the heritage and product of distilleries that have been lost to time.  In particular, the guys tried the Towiemore brand and easily fell in love with it! It turns out N8FOO is getting old.  Between yeeting the girls, PAX West, and the graveyard shift, he needs a lot of sleep. And more whiskey probably. But hey, now he is imposing boundaries.  So owning this hole adulting thing? Wookiee put his foot down about not going into the office just in time for a coworker testing positive for COVID. Which leads to a great conversation with chat about the state of society and misinformation in the world of COVID. In gaming news, the Dads discuss Destiny 2's Season of Crossplay (aka the Lost), the Dog Pound's 7 Days to Die Server, and the expansion of Sandstorm: Insurgency to consoles. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🥃 Website: https://www.debuffeddad.com/ 🥃 Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/debuffeddad/ 🥃 Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/debuffeddad/ 🥃 Discord: https://discord.gg/s6pA6KXtvy -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Show Notes: https://debuffeddad.com/podcast/whiskiee-podcast/whiskiee30/   Subscribe and follow us on Podbean, ITunes, Spotify, Stitcher, & Google Podcasts!   Intro & Outro by: Annae Ignis – Ignisium https://annaeignis.bandcamp.com/

Welcome to ep. #29 of The WHISKIEE Podcast! Take a gander and a listen to our new setup! Ooooohhhh.....aaaaahhhhh.... Today the Dads sample one of their favorites, Oban 14 year old while dealing with the trauma of parenthood. Chew is traumatized, N8 is ADHD, and all in all nothing has really changed in that regard. N8FOO is excited about his new setup. Want to know more? A new video will be coming soon! As a public service announcement, the Dad's discuss what children shows and series they can handle and what drive them in to a fit of rage. They are particularly happy when no hamsters were harmed in the making of the #content. PAX West is happening in person this year! Stop by to see N8FOO and the GMH team in the Diversity Lounge in Seattle! This is just the first step of many soon to come to the WHISKIEE Podcast and Debuffed Dad brand.

Episode 27 here, and boy is it hotter than a Flori-bama summer day! As the dad's dive in to a bottle of Barrowman's Superior 12 year old, the reminisce about the crazy that is July/August when everyone else is a teacher or a kid. And its taken its toll! Chewdada destroys chairs and N8 don't math good... Seriously though, the dads need a break. Luckily, they got a helper this stream....Yay? And the more time the girls spend together, the more their unique characters and personalities start to shine through. But what does the new school year mean? Are there things to prepare for if you want to prepare? What insurance should you be considering if you want to have a(nother) kid? And what does one expect from their (gaming) community? When does the line between a genuine offer and an entitlement change? Is there a business for creators to create a community? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Show Notes: https://debuffeddad.com/podcast/whiskiee-podcast/whiskiee27/   Subscribe and follow us on Podbean, ITunes, Spotify, Stitcher, & Google Podcasts!   Intro & Outro by: Annae Ignis – Ignisium https://annaeignis.bandcamp.com/

It's been a while...The WHISKIEE Podcast episode #26 checks back in after a month's hiatus and the craziness that is life. June was a hard month for everyone. Whether it was the GCX event, work situations, or the passing of Zesty the yellow tang, the guys related to the struggle. But when there was struggle, there was also opportunity!

The WHISKIEE Podcast episode #25 finds the families celebrating the end of the school year...and the dads wondering when everyone goes back. "Are we there yet?" The guys discover Grangestone Bourbon Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky and give it a major thumbs up! They also give a major thumbs up to the ability to get back out with other people again, celebrating the return of family traditions like Martini Night. But the return to large gatherings has its shortcoming. While the oldest daughter is not a fan of these crowds, the middle child is ecstatic to be able to steal the spotlight for a bit. But these gatherings come with a cost: in fact, California is fitting the bill by literally paying people to get the vaccine! With work once again taking a front seat, we talk about the joys of "new tech", security, and the efforts to take on the next challenge. But with cyber security complications, there comes great opportunities: that is, unless the girls spend the extra earnings. Any chance Sleep Number wants to sponsor the stream? With minimal time to game, the dads talked about the Ark Genesis 2 drop and the great community built up around the game. And community is what makes it possible to survive parenthood, much less adulthood. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Show Notes: https://debuffeddad.com/podcast/whiskiee-podcast/whiskiee25/   Subscribe and follow us on Podbean, ITunes, Spotify, Stitcher, & Google Podcasts!   Intro & Outro by: Annae Ignis – Ignisium https://annaeignis.bandcamp.com/

Episode #24 of The WHISKIEE Podcast reminds us that we are awesome at this whole parenting thing. Between bedtime routines and other fun adventures, the Dads are finally seeing a light. And that is some sweet desserts! And for dessert, the guys are sampling CALI Whiskey.   Of course, that all changes in two weeks.   But as the the guys try to prevent overextending, they are also celebrating the little wins.  And speaking of littles winning, ChewDada's little one has started walking! Unfortunately, he drank away his celebratory whisky already...   And yet, as all of the kids continue to grow up and take notes from each other, the efforts to get back out into the world grow. Efforts are being made to see people, whether celebrating a family friend turning 80 or just meeting up with people not seen since pre-pandemic.   Oh ya, and gas is the new toilet paper. Whodathunkit?  ------------------------------ Show Notes: https://debuffeddad.com/podcast/whiskiee-podcast/whiskiee24/   Subscribe and follow us on Podbean, ITunes, Spotify, Stitcher, & Google Podcasts!   Intro & Outro by: Annae Ignis – Ignisium https://annaeignis.bandcamp.com/

Episode #23 of The WHISKIEE Podcast has us saying...I'm sorry, what did you just say? Nature vs. nurture, we think it's all about control. The Dad's sampled Speyburn 10 year old Single Malt Scotch Whisky and boy, did it pack a punch! And after finally getting some routine back as the girls (teachers and kids alike) return to the classroom...summer is right around the corner! While the vaccine has enabled us to go back out in public again, the guys look forward to getting back out there and enjoying the company of friends, families, and fellow creators. Oh, and did we mention summer? Because the 4 year old is fully aware it is almost summer. And she has decided we are going to Hawaii? Get a job, kid! As we talk about our future content ideas, we reminisce on why we enjoy the creative outlet to get some things off our chests. Look for the latest video of Mama bear fleeing the scene of our murders which the youngest girl, Ewok will be happily watching because car chases are a family event now. ------------------------------ Show Notes: https://debuffeddad.com/podcast/whiskiee-podcast/whiskiee23/   Subscribe and follow us on Podbean, ITunes, Spotify, Stitcher, & Google Podcasts!   Intro & Outro by: Annae Ignis – Ignisium https://annaeignis.bandcamp.com/

Episode #22 of The WHISKIEE Podcast is a Jameson kind of morning. It's been a rough couple weeks as schools restart in person teaching, schedules get messed up, and the world expands for our little ones. With second vaccine shots achieved for the parents, the kids are venturing out into a post quarantine world! The littlest finally got to meet her 91 year old great grandmother. N8FOO was able to see his family (whom he hasn't really seen since Thanksgiving, 2019) to celebrate a birthday. And all three girls are now back to or starting daycare outside of the home. First day of "school" for the youngest, and Mama Bear doesn't know what to do with herself! ChewDada has gotten a new rig, which N8FOO already performed emergency work on. And speaking of pushing buttons, the girls continue their quest to find just the right combination to win against us. Both physically by turning off said new rig and metaphorically by, well, just being kids. Also, can the oldest please not use dog leashes on her sibling? Especially the choker collar... Work has been insane. Life has been challenging. But the light at the end of the tunnel is nigh! As these changes start to lead to a new routine, the dads talk about expanding their extra curriculars into more consistent gaming and life. ChewDada has begun modding for Richiebob2 on Twitch, whom hosts a large community cluster of servers for Ark, Conan Exiles, Insurgency, and several other games. Guardians MH had another very successful fundraiser and is able to outreach farther than they ever hoped for. And maybe, just maybe, we may see more content coming soon.   ------------------------------ Show Notes: https://debuffeddad.com/podcast/whiskiee-podcast/whiskiee22/   Subscribe and follow us on Podbean, ITunes, Spotify, Stitcher, & Google Podcasts!   Intro & Outro by: Annae Ignis – Ignisium https://annaeignis.bandcamp.com/

Welcome to Episode #21! We are finally old enough to legally enjoy the libations that are consumed during the recording! The guys enjoy a surprise hit in the tasting realm (check out the bar notes on Glen Fohdry!) SNOW DAY! Life is starting to return to normal and that is a whole new set of concerns as parents and people.  Where is that fine line of what is "right" or "acceptable". We talk about stability vs. taking risks as the opportunities unfold before us. Microsoft has planted a chip in our arms so we are compelled to extol the virtues of all things XBOX and Microsoft and the fall of broadcast services as we move to an ala carte world and how we have more control as consumers over what we are willing to pay for. Also...  we married into a good family and all credit for the good things our kids do is fully credited to our spouses.

Welcome to Episode #20 of The WHISKIEE Podcast, where we bring professionalism from the get go! Even though we took an extra week off between recordings, we covered a ton! 3 weeks of change after change; from career to kids, vaccines to … landscaping?. The oldest wants to be a Pokémon …not a trainer, an actual combat pet. The youngest won't stop dancing on the table. And N8FOO is putting up fences. ChewDada blames the FOOs for his daughter's diabolical cuteness, her "angelic" screaming voice, and the fact that she has learned violence gets attention. Thank god for Maker's Mark, amirite?   !balls.   Show Notes: https://debuffeddad.com/podcast/whiskiee-podcast/whiskiee20/   Subscribe and follow us on Podbean, ITunes, Spotify, Stitcher, & Google Podcasts!   Intro & Outro by: Annae Ignis – Ignisium https://annaeignis.bandcamp.com/

Welcome to Episode #19 of The WHISKIEE Podcast! The kids better start acting their age...because the youngest is almost 1 and the other 2 are way too smart for our own good. Somehow, the Dads got the afternoon mostly to themselves. So as not to lose the opportunity, they warmed up some nice spiked cider and got to chatting. After an update on the newest adventures of the three members of team chaos (also known as our girls), the guys picked up some of the conversations from last week. Also, as a special shoutout, The WHISKIEE Podcast Dads, who are also huge supporters of GuardiansMH.org, would like to give a thank you to the Misthaven stream team for their efforts and support for the organization!

Well, that didn't last long! January 2021 makes us all need a drink as we start episode #18 of The WHISKIEE Podcast! The almost one year old is crawling and climbing. The two-and-a-half year old is a mastermind. And the three-and-a-half year old is constantly keeping us on our toes. Honestly, it is terrifying. With a decision to focus more on being dads and less on the big scary world, we are hoping our adventures in parenting provide a needed support (or laugh) to our listeners. But being dads is not just the story of our girls; it is also our own careers and growth as we try to provide as best we can. Join us as we welcome 2021, making sure not to make eye contact or any threatening gestures it might take offensively. We don't want no trouble now, you hear?   Show Notes: https://debuffeddad.com/podcast/whiskiee-podcast/whiskiee18/   https://debuffeddad.com/whiskiee/ https://debuffeddad.com/links/   Intro & Outro by: Annae Ignis – Ignisium https://annaeignis.bandcamp.com/

Closing out the year with episode #17 of The WHISKIEE Podcast. @GGN8FOO & @ChewDada2020 reflect on the upcoming year, the recent changes in their lives, kids, and careers, and what comes next. Sampling Redbreast 12 year old whiskey, the dads reminisce on the bitter sweet growth of their kids (and the respective pain caused by some...). Heading in to the holidays with growing kids, a new job, and a new level of exhaustion, the guys remember what the last 16 episodes have brought them as they watch everything grow and change. We discuss the election loosely, describing how the upcoming days would impact everything in our lives regarding work, our teaching spouses, and the life of the girls.   Happy Holidays, from The WHISKIEE Podcast family to you and yours!   Show Notes: https://debuffeddad.com/podcast/whiskiee-podcast/whiskiee17/   https://debuffeddad.com/whiskiee/ https://debuffeddad.com/links/   Intro & Outro by: Annae Ignis – Ignisium https://annaeignis.bandcamp.com/

It's the fall! Episode 16 finds @GGN8FOO and @ChewDada2020 enjoying the chilly SoCal weather (i.e. 50s) while drinking some Bailey's and Kings Coast Coffee. The dads reflect on what fall means and the changes everyone is going through, from our own children to the country as a whole. Chat is actively participating in this episode, providing a more conversational tone throughout.  And yes, N8FOO is still working with the tech. Count the times he moves the camera and ChewDada mocks him! We are also joined by N8FOO's oldest daughter, where she shares some inspirational lines from none other than Danfinity himself!    Show Notes: https://debuffeddad.com/podcast/whiskiee-podcast/whiskiee16/   https://debuffeddad.com/whiskiee/ https://debuffeddad.com/links/   Intro & Outro by: Annae Ignis – Ignisium https://annaeignis.bandcamp.com/
