In this flavorful episode of Wise_N_Nerdy, Joe is joined by returning guest and fan-favorite Stephen Adams—aka America’s Dad—for another fun-filled, heartwarming ride through fandom and fatherhood.

The show kicks off with the always-revealing Question of the Week: “What’s the one food you could never bring yourself to eat?” From the sliminess of okra to the rubbery texture of squid and the spongy feel of mushrooms, the conversation explores how food aversions often come down to texture more than taste.

A roll of the dice sends us straight into What Are You Nerding Out About?, where Joe and Stephen break down Andor Season 2. While both agree the show continues to raise the bar in Star Wars storytelling, they also dive into some of the more controversial creative decisions made by the showrunners. It's a thoughtful and balanced take that any fan of the galaxy far, far away will appreciate.

Next, it’s time for Bad Dad Jokes, featuring laugh-worthy submissions from Discord regulars CaseyJay and TheFullRunThrough. As always, expect eye-rolls, groans, and a whole lot of chuckles.

The dice roll into a juicy Daddy, Tell Me A Story segment where Joe spills some unexpected family secrets unearthed by an Ancestry DNA test. It turns out Joe’s grandfather had a hidden chapter in his life—and this story proves that truth really is stranger than fiction.

Then in the How Do I...? segment, Joe opens up about a personal health milestone: losing 100 pounds since Labor Day. The discussion is an honest, inspiring look at the challenges and strategies behind sustainable weight management—and it’s one that many listeners will connect with.

Finally, in the Parliament of Papas, Joe and Stephen weigh in on a Reddit post where someone had to set boundaries with their mother in order to support their wife. It’s a real, emotional conversation about putting your immediate family first, and one that hits close to home for many parents.

Whether you’re here for the dad jokes, the fandom deep-dives, or the real-life parenting wisdom, there’s always something for you.
