Alan and Mark round out the year by discussing the inevitable shift from childhood to young adulthood. Yes, listeners, it's THAT long-promised episode...
As both girls enter womanhood within a few months of each other, the dads discuss what that's meant for their T1D's both physiologically and psychologically - and what it's meant for the dads!
And then we round out the episode and the year with a couple of sweet guest appearances from the real stars of the show, and a beautiful musical performance from one of them to take us perfectly into the holidays...

This is another of our episodes that we live-streamed but also edited down for your pod-listening pleasure - so just a heads up re some of the steam-related goofiness that you might hear in this ep.
Goofiness was essential for this one though, as the dads discussed the virtues or otherwise of remote learning, something every family with school-age kiddos has had to deal with to some degree or another the past few months. It's certainly been something that's heavily impacted Anna and Ella, though their experiences differ greatly.
As dads of kids with T1D, decisions re what to do and when have largely been dictated by our concerns over possible diabetes-related complications should Anna or Ella contract COVID-19. Increasingly, though, those determinations are being more and more influenced by what might be best for our children's mental health...

A real treat for our listeners this episode! DaD had the privilege of visiting with current Major League Soccer (MLS) champs Seattle Sounders and US Men's National Team starter Jordan Morris, perhaps the most high-profile T1D athlete in America.
Jordan talks openly about his earliest T1D memories, his fears regarding how his diagnosis might impact his dreams of playing professional soccer, and his reality today thriving as he does on the domestic and international soccer stage!
We can't thank Jordan enough for being so generous with his time and so candid and honest when sharing his inspiring story. Please do check out all of the incredible work Jordan and his Foundation are doing in the T1D community at www.jordanmorrisfoundation.com

This episode is a little rough around the edges, as the Dads wholly embraced live streaming and listener interaction. It was fun...but maybe it's something we do just every now and then?! Never the less, the gamut got run once more, as Alan and Mark considered what our 'new normal' (does anyone like that phrase?!) looks like?
School, sports, shopping, social interactions, all come under the microscope as well as many other topics courtesy of our wonderful listeners and our hosts' seemingly endless ability to be derailed by bright, shiny topics of any shape, size, or description!

Alan and Mark, two men with faces for radio, unwisely decide to livestream an episode for the first time! If you're listening to this via podcast, smart move. You don't have to deal with the visuals. But you can at least enjoy the different energy that being able to see one another generated from the show hosts.
The gents begin to ruminate on the pandemic 'new normal', and how they're trying to navigate all that comes with it when you have a T1D to consider. Running to the shops, going to church, playing sports, all whilst social distancing and wearing masks - or not! Some folks don't seem to quite understand the necessity for these things, so T1D families have that to navigate, too...

14 JUN 2020 · Two dads of T1D daughters, on a podcast, trying to figure it all out. Well, actually, THREE dads this episode.
While Alan sets the financial world to rights, Mark hosts our first ever Dad Panel. We’re delighted to welcome to the show fellow T1D dads Rob Namnoum and Steven Truitt. The three dads share their experiences, highlighting similarities in their kids T1D stories to date, as well as those divergences that make the Diabetic lifestyle so 'interesting' and keeps us parents on our toes!

Alan and Mark are REUNITED...and it feels so good! After the Dads recorded their separate group podcasts with other T1D pod hosts, finally the pair are back together again.
The guys run the gamut as they play catch-up, covering such diverse topics as the financial markets, the cost of insulin, tele-Endo visits, gardening, cooking, hiking, whittling, and what the unexpected long-term benefits might be to our families of this pandemic-enforced lock-down...

3 MAY 2020 · Two dads of T1D daughters, on a podcast, trying to figure it all out. With a twist!
The second of our out-of-the-norm eps, with Alan up to bat this time! #TeamAlan
Our good friend Stacey Simms (of the 'Diabetes Connections' podcast), once again gathered together some fellow T1D podcasters for a chat. Alan jumped in to represent our lil' ole show (#TeamAlan), along with Amber of 'Diabetes Daily Grind', and Matt of 'Pardon My Pancreas'. The group cover Governors orders (or lack thereof), what we learned from the Spanish Flu, and much more besides!

14 APR 2020 · Two dads of T1D daughters, on a podcast, trying to figure it all out. With a twist!
So, with the world being crazy right now, our next two eps are going to be very different from our usual shows. No Alan and Mark combo!
Our good friend Stacey Simms (of the 'Diabetes Connections' podcast), gathered together some fellow T1D podcasters for a chat, an opportunity just to connect really. Mark was in on that first gathering (#TeamMark) along with Emily of 'Pancreas Pals', Rob & Ali of 'Pardon My Pancreas', and Rob of 'Diabetics Doing Things', and this episode is that. Our next episode will feature the second of those gatherings, which Alan attended (#TeamAlan).*
*Alan and Mark are not at war, but if they were to be it would likely be very civil indeed! :-D
