  • Episode 29 - Beatdown Bands, Big Festivals, and Being a Dad
    Jul 1 2026

    Welcome to the Dads Who Mosh Podcast!


    This week, Jesse and Nate talk about Jesse's love for beatdown, swim meets in Tucson and a pointless story about an old lady that Nate used to know.


    The dads also talk about how when it comes to men's mental health, it's not just talking and not just action that helps guys, but it's both. Guys need to be able to freely talk about how they're feeling and what they're going through, but we usually need something to actually do as well.

  • Episode 27 - Interview w/ Jon Gustin of The Tired Dad
    Jun 16 2026

    Podcast Info


    Welcome to the Dads Who Mosh Podcast!


    This week, the dads are joined by Jon Gustin, better known as The Tired Dad. What started off as humorous social media posts about the struggles of dad-hood has now grown into a full blown movement with hundreds of videos, over a million followers and a new book. Jon’s openness and honesty are an encouragement to dads to take their mental health seriously, be willing to lay down their ego, and understand that in this day and age, dads are asked to do so much more than ever before, and if you’re showing up, and you’re tired, that means you’re doing it right.


    Jon, Nate and Jesse talk about lessons we’ve learned from dad-hood, the joys of watching our kids grow up and sobriety. The guys also cover the magic of music that came out in the late 90’s, early 00’s and the impact of nu-metal and grunge on heavy music today, as well as “moshing” at home with our kids. We also hear the super cool story of how Jon connected with legendary actor, Josh Brolin.
