About This Podcast

This is "Dad A.F."(Autism Focused), the podcast & page where a real AF dad talks about the highs, lows, and everything in between when it comes to raising a child with autism. Hosted by a death-metal loving, dedicated daddy, this show is here to thrash the stigmas surrounding fatherhood in the special needs community.

You won’t find experts here—just dads, living & learning, day in and out. Through dialogues with guests from all walks of life, we'll dive into the often unspoken struggles of being a father, offering a space where emotions are both normalized and celebrated. From the tough days to the moments of joy, we’ll explore the challenges, the triumphs, and the importance of mental health and vulnerability for dads.

 Whether you’re navigating the complexities of autism, physical disabilities, or simply trying to be a better dad, "Dad A.F." is here to help you feel seen, heard, and supported. So grab a seat, turn up the volume to 11, and join the conversation—it's time to talk about the hard shit, the real shit, and everything that makes us better dads.
