The New Dad Rock
EP 13. Let's Go (Road) Tripping
It's summertime, and that means it's time for the annual rite of passage: the family road trip. Miles upon miles of boring highway driving, traffic, detours, cheap hotels, children fighting, the license plate game, and, if you're smart, a great stack of CDs to listen to.
Join Keith and Stave as they eat ice cream and share selections from the road. It's a New Dad Rock summer special.
