What Podcasts Are Part of The Dads Podcast Network?

Updated

The Dads Podcast Network, powered by Dads Supporting Dads, lists three shows on its site: Modern Dads, DILF (Dad I'd Like To Friend), and Dads With Daughters. The network reports over half a million downloads and counting. If you're looking for fatherhood-focused listening, these three names are the starting point — the site presents them as the network's current lineup, each with its own "Listen Now" link.

The Shows at a Glance

Show What the name signals Best starting point if…
Modern Dads General modern fatherhood themes You want a broad entry into the network
DILF (Dad I'd Like To Friend) Friendship and community among dads You're drawn to the social/connection side of fatherhood
Dads With Daughters Parenting daughters specifically You're raising a daughter and want that focus

The site does not publish episode counts, hosts, or release schedules for each show, so treat the table as a map of themes rather than a detailed review. The descriptions above reflect what the show titles and the site's framing of "modern fatherhood" suggest — not confirmed episode content.

How to Listen

  1. Go to dadssupportingdads.org and find The Dads Podcast Network section on the homepage.
  2. Each show has its own Listen Now link. Select the show you want.
  3. Follow that link to the listening destination it opens.

The site doesn't specify which platforms host the shows, so the "Listen Now" links are the reliable route — don't assume a particular app carries them until the link confirms it.

Where the Podcasts Fit in the Organization

Dads Supporting Dads describes itself as part of a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that has united organizations in the dad space since 2008. The podcast network sits alongside its other offerings:

  • City Dads Groups — local groups with dads nights out, family play dates, and virtual support groups
  • The New Dads Guide — A Sanity Saving Guide To Better Support New And Expectant Dads, noted on the site as selected as one of Babylist's Best Parenting Books for Dads
  • A blog and a join/support pathway for the community

So the podcasts are one entry point into a broader support system, not a standalone media product. If a show resonates, the groups and guide are the natural next steps.

Choosing What to Listen To

  • New or expectant dad? Start with the New Dads Guide, then use the podcasts as background listening on modern fatherhood.
  • Feeling isolated? DILF's friendship framing and the City Dads Groups address the same need — the site explicitly ties its mission to what the U.S. Surgeon General called a "loneliness epidemic" among men.
  • Raising a daughter? Dads With Daughters is the most specific match.
  • Just curious about the network? Modern Dads is the broadest-sounding title.

The site doesn't rank the shows or state which is most popular, so there's no "right" order — pick by theme and sample from there.
