Dad Dialogue is back after a nice long Christmas holiday! I hope you are all ready for the new year and looking ahead to all that 2026 will bring. Joining Laurence today is Nick Coffman. Nick is a dad to two children, soon to be three! We discuss his currently feelings about the upcoming baby and how those feelings compare to the previous arrivals. Nick hosts two podcasts and writes for a gaming and tech satirical website, Hard Drive.

As someone who spends a decent amount of time within the video game and tech world, we spend some time discussing the impact of video games and screen time on our children and possible best practices in terms of engaging with the hobbies and interests of our kids.

On today’s episode of the Dad Dialogue podcast, we have a story that is a little different to a lot of the other stories we have featured before. Today’s guest is Hans who has one adult son, with whom he has somewhat lost connection. Hans shares how his opinion on fatherhood has shifted over the years and how when he first became a dad, it was probably something he didn’t really want. It was a fascinating conversation and I hope you enjoy.

Following the appearance of his co-host, Kristopher, last week, John Dalrymple joins Laurence today for the latest episode of Dad Dialogue. John is the father to six children, yes six! In the episode we will hear him share about the practicality of that and how he has grown as a father alongside his family growing as well.

John is a pastor based at a church in California so in the episode he shares a little about the process of deciding to become a pastor, what life looked like whilst balancing studying, serving, becoming a dad and supporting a wife. John also shares how he tries to make the most of his time with his kids and the importance of being present.

Please do go and check out more of Kristopher at the Growing Fathers Website or the Growing Fathers Podcast.
