This week, it's the first piece of "history" gun guys go for (because they're dirt cheap), the SKS. We also talk about the North Carolina governor race and a bailiff getting a little wild in the judges chambers.

It’s another DadChat featuring Nate and Francis, and in this week’s episode we’re talking all sorts of things: relocation expenses, pre-positioning supplies when changing babies, and the surprisingly varied ways in which people make coffee on the eastern side of the Atlantic. Which is to say, Francis has never actually had someone explain to him what espresso actually is. We also answer a lot of Ask A Dad questions!

For this week’s DadChat, we have a special guest: Jack Forman, who’s been on before and who is now helping produce the show while Nate navigates the alpine labyrinth of Swiss bureaucracy. And in this episode, Jack discusses his experience as a former elementary school teacher, and what the oft-discussed ‘back to school’ period is like for teachers and school staff. We very much hope you enjoy it!
