Tell Me About Your Father

…

Erin Hosier, Elizabeth Thompson & Matthew Phillp

Everyone on the gender spectrum has to deal with men and that's enough of a reason to study their impact on our lives. Join hosts Erin Hosier, Elizabeth Thompson and Matthew Phillp for this bi-weekly podcast discussing dads, father figures and the paternal mystique. Episodes include interviews with people who have compelling father stories, recaps of father-centered TV and movies, and our talk show ‘Daddy Issues,’ featuring a cavalcade of brilliant guests who help us parse pop culture news through a dadly lense. If it's about dads, we'll be talking about it. It’s your mom’s favorite podcast! [tellmeaboutyourfather.substack.com] (https://tellmeaboutyourfather.substack.com?utm_medium=podcast)
