Hey everyone, we are still alive and back with episode #118 of Chad & Steve Have a Podcast! We are joined by Robert Dunn (Aging Wheels) and diving into a whirlwind chat that spans everything from camera settings, AI video creation, and the charm of old-school analog photography, to the mixed reactions we've seen in the comment sections.
We also get into the nitty-gritty of car safety, ponder over the beauty(?) and design(?) of things like the Cybertruck, and share our personal stories about handling the good, the bad, and the ugly comments online.
Plus, we can't forget Robert's head-turning cars, run-ins with vehicle regulations, and how politics plays a part in what we drive.

In this conversation, Rob Kenney discusses his YouTube channel ( https://www.youtube.com/@DadhowdoI ) and the impact he hopes to have on his audience. He talks about the challenges of authenticity and self-awareness as a content creator and the importance of avoiding controversial topics.
Rob also shares his personal journey of forgiveness and the power it has had in his life. He discusses the responsibility of being a role model as a dad and the value of sponsorships that align with his values.
The conversation concludes with Rob reflecting on becoming an empty nester and his transition to full-time YouTube.
In this conversation, Rob Kenney from Dad, How Do I discusses various topics, including sports, managing messages and expectations, balancing social media and personal time, interactions with fans, feeling seen and appreciated, and celebrity interactions.
Forgiveness can be a powerful tool for personal growth and healing. Being a role model as a dad involves recognizing the value of fatherhood and encouraging other dads to do their best. Sponsorships should be integrated authentically into content to maintain the trust of the audience. Becoming an empty nester can be a bittersweet experience, but it also opens up new opportunities for personal growth. Transitioning to full-time YouTube requires careful planning and consideration of financial stability. Encouraging and empowering Dads is important for building strong families and communities. Reflecting on regrets and lessons learned can help individuals grow and make better choices in the future. Being a fan of sports teams can be challenging, especially when they are not performing well. Managing messages and expectations can be overwhelming, but it's important to find ways to disconnect and have personal space. Balancing social media and personal time can be difficult, but setting boundaries and prioritizing alone time can help. Interacting with fans can be both rewarding and challenging, and it's important to make them feel seen and appreciated. -

Vidcon has created a tiered caste system to keep creators as far from fans as possible. This year we went to Vidcon and were surprised how subdued the Vidcon at the convention center was. That's because the REAL Vidcon was a mile away. And they don't want you to know about it.
