Howdy, friends and neighbors. Nap time, for the kids, here at the At-Home Dad House. Which means that with a little bit of luck I’ll have time to polish off this second, exciting installment of Dads I Dig. If you are reading this, than I suppose I am one lucky dad dude.

If you aren’t already reading, viewing, clicking and generally spitting your kid’s leftovers out in a fit of sudden giggles over the stuff the guys at How To Be A Dad are putting down daily, well you should be. Not only are they the best thing since disposable diapers, but they are two of the most talented, prolific, hilarious and well-loved rad dads you will ever have the privilege of trying to keep up with. If it seems like Charlie Capen and Andy Herald are everywhere these days, award shows, twitter parties, and viral videos, it’s because the world at large is catching on to their quick-witted, timely and often poignant output. Give these posts below a click-through and afterwords, go like them on Facebook and follow them on Twitter.  Trust me, it’s good for what ails you on a humpday afternoon.

Ciao for now,
Dada Mike
