Episode 30: Troy Munson (https://www.linkedin.com/in/troymunson/) and Daniel Berk (https://www.linkedin.com/in/danielberk/) go full late-night therapy session — live from Spain (again) and the depths of parental chaos. From mushroom microdosing and screaming toddlers to productivity paranoia and the new AI gold rush, the dads get vulnerable, real, and a little spicy. This one’s less “tech podcast,” more existential spiral. You’ve been warned.
