Ten Posts That Define Bad Dad Radio

I keep getting tagged by different bloggers, most recently The Molk and Freakedout Fathers, but up until now I’ve been tardy at fulfilling the obligations. (You know, life gets in the way, and stuff.)

I started BadDadRadio.com because I wanted to experiment with podcasting. The best place to start was talking about something I know about — parenting. I get abused on a regular basis so it seemed that I had enough expertise to talk about it.

By making available useful information and resources, I hope to make some small, positive difference, even if it’s just in one father’s life.

The blog posts were a natural extension of podcasting — a way of distributing related information that might not make it into my podcast episodes, more quickly than the time it takes to prepare audio episodes. Over time, I’ve extended that further through video and participating on social networks

That said, I present TEN posts that define what Bad Dad Radio is all about.

1. Fitting In (Audio)
   A deeply personal reflection on being bullied as a youth and struggling with that anger for decades.
2. Help Locate a Missing Child
   Example of simple tips to help save lives.
3. Air Rocket Fun (Vidcast)
   Sharing a simple idea to get the kids out of the house and running around outside.
4. Seven Family Life Goals 7/7/07
   Example of tips to help fathers cope with stress and family life.
5. How To Remote Manage Your Parent’s Computer
   Example of tips to solve common problems.
6. Managing Your Blog Like a Professional Web Site: Content Protection
   Sharing technology tips for fellow bloggers.
7. Contact Lens Wearers Should Use Compatible Cleaning Solution
   Example of raising awareness of the less obvious health risks you might never think of.
8. Use Technology To Stay In Touch With Friends
   Example of raising awareness of how to use the latest social tools to maintain bonds.
9. Scam Awareness: Fake Jury Duty Calls
   Example of raising awareness of bad behavior that can result in identity theft.
10. Product Recall: Take ALL Toys Away, Replace With Cardboard Boxes
    Example of sharing important product safety information.
    Okay, I admit this post was a gag after 15 real posts of lead paint, magnet and contaminated food recalls. But as soon as I learn of an important product recall that affects children, I try to spread the news to other parents.
11. BONUS: Some U.S.-Americans Don’t Own Maps
    Example of brutal fun. I can’t resist watching a train wreck.

There are many more subjects I have in mind but haven’t shared yet. Please subscribe to the Podcast/blog feed and join me as we explore them together.

Thank you.
