Two Dads in Tech

Episode 27: Troy Munson (https://www.linkedin.com/in/troymunson/) and Daniel Berk (https://www.linkedin.com/in/danielberk/) are back from a wild lake trip — 4 families, 7 kids, and a whole lot of chaos. They get real about co-parenting dynamics, underwater earbuds, and the mental load moms often carry. This one’s a vulnerable, reflective take on modern fatherhood: the guilt, the growth, and the grind of trying to be present while still needing space.
