Dadville with Dave Barnes and Jon McLaughlin

LANY drummer (and Jon McLaughlin band alumni) Jake Goss rolls through Dadville this week to talk about his journey as a drummer and a relatively new father.

Dawes’ Taylor Goldsmith is a liar. He claims to struggle with writing lyrics, but even a casual listen to the effortless prose that fills every project he's involved in proves otherwise. He joins the fellas for a deep talk about creativity, new-dad superpowers, and why you should argue about ’80s Dylan and weird Neil Young records. Thanks to our sponsors!

The fellas make a point to ask every guest a very specific question. "What's it like to walk in space?" So far, nobody has been able to answer with any type of authority. Today's guest, Chris Hadfield, finally puts an end to that streak. He's an astronaut, test pilot, author, musician, speaker, has collaborated with the Barenaked Ladies, and recorded a version of David Bowie's "Space Oddity" while IN SPACE. In this episode he discusses one of his most harrowing days in space and why he doesn't consider himself a thrillseker. He is also unanimously voted as Dadville's Resident Astronaut.

The fellas are using this week for some self reflection. Some might call it a check up from the neck up. In a strange twist, Jon takes the lead and offers up a handful of observations and reflections that aim to answer the following questions: Exactly why is Jon talking so much? Do you live in a palatial estate if you have seven smoke alarms? Could you combine a Roomba with a fireplace? Is youth passing me by (literally)? What gives you irrational confidence? What's the parent tax on pastries? Finally, Jon and Dave share their darkest (animal-related) fears and do their best to induce your anxiety with stories about misguided airport decisions.

This week in Dadville we caught up with Lawrence Guy, who is the defensive tackle for the New England Patriots.
