Episode 35: Midwest Banter: Cubs, Tigers, and Life

In this hilarious and relatable episode of Broke Ass Dads, Jordan and Scott go full Midwest mode — swapping dad stories, baseball debates, and college football takes that hit every suburban dad nerve.

Scott’s fresh off a father-son trip to Ann Arbor, where his 8-year-old son experiences his first Michigan game — and maybe his first college crush. Jordan’s weighing a major dad dilemma: does he take his son to a late-night Cubs playoff game in Milwaukee on a school night? Cue the debates about bedtime, traffic, Wrigley vs. American Family Field, and delicate dad bones that “can’t handle 60-degree weather.”

The guys dive into Midwest pride, fatherhood, the chaos of travel sports weekends, and why the “drop third strike” rule in baseball might be the dumbest thing ever invented. It’s part history lesson, part sports banter, part parenting therapy session — and 100% Broke Ass Dads.

🎧 Whether you’re a Cubs or Tigers fan, a Midwest transplant, or just a tired parent trying to justify bad decisions with “it’s for the memories,” this one’s for you.
