In this episode, we break down the biggest debates in dad life and tech, including:

🐶 Are dogs secretly more expensive than kids?

• Daniel’s dog had a vet bill that cost more than his last vacation.
• Troy’s dog almost lost a leg thanks to a spider.
• Do we still love our dogs the same way after having kids? (Spoiler: Nope.)

💰 Should you pay off debt ASAP or enjoy life while you're young?

• Do you grind to pay off student loans early, or live it up in your 20s and pay the minimums?
• The shocking truth about how much the average 30-year-old actually has in savings.
• How our mindset on money has evolved in tech sales.

🚗 Driving a Tesla – Smart purchase or Elon endorsement?

• Troy owns a Tesla – does that mean he automatically supports Elon?
• Can you separate a company from its founder’s actions?
• The Chick-fil-A and Nike comparison: Does buying mean endorsing?

🚰 Stanley vs. Owala – The Water Bottle Wars

• Daniel just discovered Owala. Apparently, it’s a thing?
• Troy refuses to abandon his Stanley cup, but has concerns.
• The real question: Why are we all paying $50+ for water bottles?

🤧 Sick kids in public – What’s the right move?

• Are we those parents who take their kids out with a lingering cough?
• Do we secretly judge other parents when they do the same?
• Snotty kids at daycare… enough said.

🔥 BONUS: We also talk about how we take sales notes, why every rep should be using Fathom, and our thoughts on employer stock purchase plans.

In this episode, Troy and Daniel dive into the chaos of parenting, business ideas, and deep (but hilarious) life debates. Ever wondered if you’ll poop yourself during a marathon? We tackle the hard-hitting questions first.

Then, we shift gears into raising kids in 2025—what do you actually teach them at home? Math and coding? Nope. How to be decent humans? Absolutely. The dads also debate homeschooling vs. public school, especially in the face of rising school shootings. (Yikes.)

Next up, it’s rapid-fire business ideas you can steal right now 💡, from an Airbnb for home-cooked meals to a gym membership that gets cheaper the more you go. Plus, Troy shares a business idea he’s been sitting on for years (and still kinda wants to launch).

And because no episode is complete without controversy, we tackle the LinkedIn "Open to Work" banner debate—does it actually make you look desperate? Or is it just misunderstood? 🤔

To wrap things up, the dads debate how much money you really need to start a $1M business in 90 days and why live-streaming the entire thing might be the biggest money-maker of all.

This episode is equal parts business, parenting, and absolute nonsense—and that’s exactly why you’ll love it.

In this jam-packed episode of Two Dads in Tech, Troy Munson and Daniel Berk take a deep dive into the wild world of startups, family life, and, of course, dad fashion.

What’s Inside This Episode?

• Startup Life vs. Family Life: Can you really balance building a high-growth startup and being present for your family? Troy gets real about the impossible juggling act, Paul Graham’s infamous startup advice, and why sometimes, revenue takes a back seat to lunch dates with your wife.
• Do You Actually Like Your Job? Daniel breaks down what to do if you hate your job but feel stuck. The guys explore how passion, risk, and that one guy who went from Groupon to supersonic jets (yes, really) can teach you how to pivot your career—without torching your bank account.
• The One Lesson You Shouldn’t Learn the Hard Way: Things get deep when Troy and Daniel open up about personal loss, tough conversations with family, and why you should probably tell people you love them way more than you do now. Spoiler: There are no do-overs.
• Why Life is Basically Just Chaos: Ever feel like life is a mess? That’s because it is. But the guys debate whether it’s all about how you respond to the madness or if we’re all just winging it. (Hint: We’re all winging it.)
• Gold Chains & Chest Hair Confessions: Because no Two Dads in Tech episode is complete without some ridiculousness, Daniel unveils his new TJ Maxx-inspired fashion phase, and Troy reminisces about his regrettable days of chest-hair manscaping.

Why Listen?

This episode is equal parts hilarious, insightful, and unexpectedly real. Whether you're grinding in tech, figuring out work-life balance, or just need a good laugh, you’re in the right place.
