Join two dads learning to become a different kind of smart. A kind of smart that goes beyond just trying to recreate school at home. It’s a kind of smart that can build something real and relevant for their kids’ education.

The Hosts

Jesse & Joshua have been friends since college. They’ve played music together and now they’re figuring out how to help their kids grow and learn outside the traditional school system. They started having long conversations about how homeschooling was going; what’s working, what’s not working, and what it means when you don’t feel like a teacher.

They realized that there weren’t many voices out there speaking to dads who want to be a part of their kid’s education at home. So this is a place for those conversations. Just two dads, sharing ideas, about the journey. Believing that education does not just mean pass or fail, instead, it’s about curiosity, connection, and most of all, just showing up.
