Sup dads. Hope y’all had a solid weekend. Happy Veterans Day to all of the vets out there. We appreciate you and your service.
These Are the Good Old Days
Hey, let’s be real: life with kids moves at 100 miles an hour. It’s easy to get lost in the rush—to look ahead to what’s next on the never-ending list. But here’s a thought: what if these little moments, right now, are the ones you’ll miss the most?
I’ve got two boys of my own, and yesterday, my 3-year-old looked at me, dead ass serious, and said, “I’m too big to hold.” It stopped me in my tracks.
Here I was, always trying to keep up with life’s pace, and he’s already telling me he’s outgrowing something I thought we had time for.
What if the “good old days” everyone talks about are happening this very minute?
Stick around, because this is a reminder to slow down, take that extra five minutes, and soak in the messy, hilarious, beautiful chaos that is dad life. You’re making memories without even trying.
Nate Bargatze
Meet Nate Bargatze, the dad who’s redefining “dad humor” for the modern age. Known for his clean, observational comedy, Nate brings a laid-back Southern charm to his stand-up, but don’t let that fool you. Behind the easy-going delivery is a guy who’s got fatherhood dialed in—kind, grounded, and all about family.
On stage, Nate’s stories about family life, his daughter, and navigating the ridiculousness of everyday dad moments are refreshingly real and relatable. From explaining the mysteries of how thermostats work to figuring out his daughter’s quirky logic, Nate brings out the humor in the most ordinary dad moments, reminding us that fatherhood doesn’t have to be flashy to be meaningful.
He mentioned balancing his career and family life is crucial, stating, "I want to be there for the little moments because those are the ones that matter the most." Check out Nate on Netflix here if you need something to watch tonight.
Nikon COOLSHOT
Alright, golf dads, let's talk about upping your game.
You know Nikon - they've been the camera guys for over 100 years. Turns out, they're also making some pretty sweet rangefinders that'll help you figure out if you should really be pulling out that 7-iron.
Their COOLSHOT rangefinders are like having a caddie in your pocket (minus the awkward small talk). They're light, easy to use, and packed with tech that'll make you feel like a pro - even if your swing says otherwise. We're talking stabilized optics, flagstick recognition, and slope adjustment for when you're playing "totally just for fun."
Think of it as investing in your golf dignity. And hey, maybe you'll finally beat your father-in-law at the annual family tournament.

Warning: May not fix your slice, but at least you'll know exactly how far into the woods your ball went.
Don’t Knock the Walk
Ever notice how you’re always telling the kids to “walk, don’t run”? Turns out, there’s some wisdom in that for us grown-ups, too. Walking might just be one of the simplest ways to boost your health, manage weight, improve mental well-being, and even extend your life.
Think heart health, stronger bones, boosted mood, and a whole list of other perks—all from aiming for that magic 10,000 steps a day. Ready to dive into why a good walk can be the ultimate dad hack for staying fit?
The Triple Threat of HSAs
Alright dads, let’s talk about a not-so-secret weapon in the financial playbook: the Health Savings Account (HSA).
Think of it as the Swiss Army knife of savings accounts—versatile and packed with benefits. With a triple tax advantage (tax-free contributions, growth, and withdrawals for medical expenses), it’s a financial tool that does it all.
