This week, I'm excited to have my long-time friend Jonathan Seaborn on The Dad Complex. I've known Jonathan for over 10 years now, and we've seen each other turn from Jonathan(s) the musician to the part-time dream chasers to finding our dream careers and becoming dads around the same time. We started a Weezer cover band once, but it happened to be about when life started coming at us faster, and we never performed together. Since you'll never know, you can trust me when I say it would have, could have, and was badass.

NOTE: Since the recording of this episode, Jonathan accepted the GM position at KUAR in Little Rock, AR. I'm sad to see such a tremendous person leave Lubbock, but we're proud to see him make some big moves for his career and family!

Episode 4 features my pal, mortgage loan officer extraordinaire, and all-around wonderful human, Tom Couture. Tom is my first guest who has entered the coveted "grandpa" stage, although you wouldn't know it. We had a great conversation filled with high-key aphorisms and lots of love. I hope you enjoy it.

We're kicking off the new year with Grant Willingham of Ink Giant!

Like Kate and I, Grant and his wife, Ericka, had children at a young age and experienced growing a family while simultaneously finding our career footing. I ad a great time understanding how he tackles different situations as a dad and how he's handled growing a business at the same time. I hope you enjoy the conversation!

P.S. Grant is an incredible artist who takes a holistic approach to curate a brand's visual identity and tells a story in some fashion through his beautiful and super-clean designs. Tadpole recently worked with Grant to create a rad design initially intended for t-shirts, and the experience was killer.
