    Chris and Lauren Tomlin: You Wrote Those Songs?

    Chris and Lauren Tomlin: You Wrote Those Songs?

    It all started with a somewhat blind double date. The story of Chris and Lauren Tomlin is one for the ages. It's definitely not a straight line, but it continues in the best possible way. From Lauren's motto of "Ready, Fire, Aim," to their children asking Chris if he could help facilitate songwriting advice, this episode is an all-timer.

The fellas talk with Ernie about being a working actor and a single dad, his life growing up with his grandmother in Michigan, and the immense pride he has as a father and grandfather. An absolute legend joins this week in Dadville.

    James K.A. Smith: The Dynamic of Being Known

    James K.A. Smith: The Dynamic of Being Known

    For years one of Dave's favorite books has been On the Road with Saint Augustine: A Real-World Spirituality for Restless Hearts, and today we have the author James K.A. Smith joining Dadville. Throughout the conversation, Smith gives enlightened views on not only Saint Augustine, but also his latest book, How to Inhabit Time, which shows why awakening to the spiritual significance of time is crucial for orienting faith in the twenty-first century.

Love the couples!

Have just adored listening to the couples you’ve been having on. It’s clear y’all are great friends and it’s really fun to hear you laugh and encourage one another.

Mom who loves Dadville

Keep it coming! I love it and have listened from day 1.

Could not love this show more

As a frequent mom visitor to Dadville- I just have to say that I could not love this show more. Also- after the Steve Moakler episode I checked …and the Pontiac Coffee House is sadly permanently closed 😂- but the yelp images made the Girl Scout story truly come to life. Thank you for your laughs and wisdom -shared with dads and moms alike!
