It's also the messiest, loudest, most humbling, and funniest one. Life of Dad is the podcast for every dad who's burned the pancakes, missed the instruction manual, and somehow still showed up. Hosted by Life of Dad founder Tom Riles alongside Nashville funny guys Lee Kimbrell and Mike James, each episode brings real talk, real laughs, and real stories from the frontlines of fatherhood. From the chaos of the school drop-off line to the big stuff that actually matters — we're covering it all. No judgment. No perfection. Just dads being dads. Produced by Nateland Entertainment — Nate Bargatze's company — Life of Dad is built for the world's greatest community of dads. And that community? They're basically the fourth host of the show. Keep the comments, stories, and laughs coming — because this podcast is nothing without the dads behind it.","last_synced_at":"2026-09-14T12:17:01.726626+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/life-of-dad-7857344"},"episode":{"title":"1: BECOMING A DAD | Life of Dad Ep #1 | A Nateland Podcast","slug":"1-becoming-a-dad-life-of-dad-ep-1-a-nateland-podcast","published_at":"2026-05-11T09:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/life-of-dad-7857344/1-becoming-a-dad-life-of-dad-ep-1-a-nateland-podcast","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/life-of-dad-7857344","url":"https://audioboom.com/posts/8901845","audio_url":"https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/audioboom.com/posts/8901845.mp3?modified=1780776795&sid=5170662&source=rss","summary":"Episode #1 of Life of Dad kicks off with hosts Tom Riles, Lee Kimbrell, and Mike James diving into the moment life changes forever: becoming a dad.
