In this episode the dads take on The Boys in the Boat by Daniel James Brown.

Here are answers to some questions you may have before listening to this episode:

• Are any of the dads rowers? No.

• Do any of the dads even own a boat? No.

• Does one of the dads think he’d like to be a rower? Yes.

• Have any of the dads ever been an Olympian? No.

• Is Avery Brundage the arch nemesis of the Are We Bad Dads? Podcast? It sure seems like that’s the case.

• Are the dads obsessed with the 1936 Olympics? Probably.

• Have any of the dads seen the movie? Yes, Aaron and Mateo.

• Did any of the dads buy a rowing machine after reading this book? Yes.

• Will this episode be worth my time? Absolutely.

• Is this episode kid appropriate? We think so, but maybe listen to it yourself first just to make sure. It definitely doesn’t have the sensitive topics of a book like Fever in the Heartland.

• Should I rate or review this podcast on iTunes? Yes, a thousand times yes.
