Becoming a Dad with Greg Miller and Kevin Coello - The Kinda Funny Podcast (Ep. 314)

[@AyeTySkaar]

If there is one thing I feel like I know as a KF fan… is that Kevdog is going to be an amazing dad. Congrats Kev!

[@nighthawk4251]

Wife and I are having our first baby in 7 weeks. Couldn't be more excited. This video dropping now is perfect for me

[@Covette01]

Congrats and good luck! It’s the best (and hardest) days of your life - I think about how the kids made me laugh each day or what’s new in their lives, it’s a lot of fun. But it’s also a lot of work and we’ve gone through so much unexpected trauma. Don’t think it’s gonna be a cake walk, you never know, BUT you’ll most likely have many more great days than bad

[@seanmatchus2071]

Congrats on the kiddo!! That is awesome. I just recently had my 2nd kid. Greg is right in the time flies.. but always remember to slow down and just hold that baby. 🎉

[@dst_unbelievable]

Congratulations! We’re 11 months in with our first, and it’s been such an incredible thing. The early weeks/months are the toughest, but there’s so much magic in watching them grow, and it gets more fun literally every week.

[@DarthDubie5]

Kev dawg.. I had no clue about the story behind your father. God that is heart breaking, but it makes so much more sense on why you are the way you are. Greg said it best you are pretty much Superman. If anyone says "yea i got a project I gotta do this weekend.. gonna move 13 bags of dirt around the yard" you are always the first one to say that you would be happy to help. I had a little bit of a similar upbringing as you.. My father was never in the picture and neither was my little cousins father so I took up that responsibility of teaching him those small things. This episode hit harder than I thought it was.. too many tears. You're gonna be a fricken AMAZING father and I cant wait to see your journey with the little one.

[@chouji2]

I'm only halfway through, and this is already one of the best/most wholesome episodes in a long time. Kevin has such an amazing energy in this episode and just seems so happy. I hope somehow being a dad allows him to be on content more often haha

[@presidentc4]

"I feel like you are the office dad" Cut to the wide shot of Kevin sitting criss cross applesauce on the sofa with his shoes on 😂😂 Never change Papa Coello

[@adamambro]

What a great episode. And Jesus...I've been with KF since day 1 and never knew that about Kevin's dad. As a fairly new father (5 year old)...I loved all of this. Greg's a great dad, and Kevin is going to be amazing too. Love you guys

[@TurnaboutAdam]

I don’t know if i’ll ever have a child, but this podcast made me feel so much readier for it than I could have imagined.

[@JamesDavisMakes]

Kevin: "It just feels so far away." Greg: "But if I want to know how to be a good dad, where do I go??" Kevin: "… *sigh* the official list of upcoming fathers as listed…"

[@chknrsandTBBTROX73]

Let’s be real, Kevin just doesn’t want to forget any dates by having it all land on the same day 😂

[@EZMelo]

Love this. I’m 31 and my son just turned 2. I love how my life has lined up with you guys perfectly to where I can relate to the conversation. Love you guys

[@knightwarfilms8923]

I need y'all to do more one on one episodes like this, this episode was incredible. Big Kev Dog is gonna make one hell of a father, and I can't wait to see that throughout the years of future KF content hearing about his journey 🤘🤘

[@dakotaallen5672]

I feel like Kevin so often says he's too busy to be gaming. He's about to learn what busy really is, lol.

[@12kizuna]

People can be really busy even if they don't have kids....

[@dakotaallen5672]

​@12kizuna of course? I dont think I implied its not possible to be busy without children.

[@charlestothe]

@@dakotaallen5672you did.

[@holgz]

@@12kizunayou can and I was, but a child brings a different kind of busy… busy with much less choice

[@Alilasiankid]

That’s because Kevin isn’t a gamer. He’s the stagehand. He’s the mechanic. He’s the one that keeps the shit on the rails. And yes, he’s busy FIXING EVERY problem Kinda Funny has. So yes, he’s busy. lol

[@furrybproductions]

I remember talking with my ex wife long before having children and her saying, "What would you do if I got pregnant?" And me saying, "Imma keep it real... Imma leave 🤣 Not forever 🤣 but imma need to take a LOOOOOOONNGGGG ass walk, probably do a Seinfeld and sit on a bench on the boardwalk, and gather my thoughts. Then I'll be right back.🤣" She said, "You think we could hurry that up if I gave you a MetroCard?" 💀💀💀 Flash forward a almost a year and I come home from work one day and she's sitting on the couch in the living room, MetroCard in hand. 🤣 I grabbed that MetroCard and hugged TF outta her 🤣 Later, I would discover she should've given me 2 MetroCards that day. Twins 🤣

[@j92allen]

I've been watching Greg since beyond and KF since day 1. Love both of you guys and as someone that married their best friend after 8 years in Sept 2023 this is such a great conversation to see. We're planning kids for maybe next year if it all goes to plan but damn does it feel like I'm growing up alongside you guys! Love the KF fam.

[@loganr9710]

Greg: "I am not a picky eater" Also Greg: Immediately lists a bunch of common foods he doesn't like

[@tristincampion4957]

Im 23 currently and I've given it thought as im getting older and having kids is not something I particularly want as I dont think Id necessarily make the best parent. I do however have a great appreciation for the people who have kids that are very obviously excited and happy to be having kids cause those are the people that make the best parents (in my opinion). The pure joy Kevin shows during this episode when he talks about having a kid is beautiful and its proof that he is going to be a phenomenal dad, congrats to you and Paula, kev dawg

[@Kevin-ve6ly]

My wife and I are expecting at the beginning of November and this episode has touched on so much that we are going through and really helped. Thank you!

[@KingRabla]

I am so excited to see Kev as a Dad, hes gonna be the absolute best! You got this Big Kev Daddy! 🖤🤘🏻

[@davidubeda8720]

One of the best episodes in a while. As a new father of a 9 month old, this episode made me a fan all over again! I love it when they let us in their life.

[@dan1991woopwoop]

My daughter is about to have her 1st birthday. What a year its been. The hardest, most tiring year of my life. But i have felt a love that iv never known before. And everytime i make her laugh and give a big cheesy grin its the best feeling ever. The first couple months they'll pretty much just feed, sleep and cry. Then you'll blink and they'll be crawling towards all the plug sockets and valuables on a mission to chomp. Good luck Kev, what iv seen of you over the years of watching kinda funny i know you'll be a great dad. Just get as prepared as possible before it comes and it'll make the transition alot smoother. ✌️

[@furrybproductions]

BRO! When you pretty much NEVER slept much your whole life and been fine and then have a child and experience your eyes in flames from having any sleep you do get interrupted nightly? Oof! That shits ROUGH AF! Hate to break it to you, but the way you sleep will be dramatically changed what seems like forever. There's hope tho! Mine just turned 18 and HOLY FUCK My sleep is back! 🤣 Godspeed!

[@ProjectReality64]

Wait until your kid is a toddler. Then youll see how hard it is. I myself have a 1 and 3 year old. Despite the struggle. I wouldnt change a thing

[@Ironlion4492]

Kevin you’re a legend! You’re gonna do great man. Being a dad is awesome.

[@durp312]

Congratulations big kev dog! Glad to wake up to some good news 🤙🏾🎉

[@madamemeghen]

Greg: "If you're watching and you've never tried to make a child..." CUT: Ad for an Escape Room

[@seanmatchus2071]

Congrats to Kevdog and Paula! This is one of the toughest things to go through but in the end is so rewarding. Also I would love a daddycast with Kevdog and Greg!

[@brycenunn3536]

Greg you are a great dad and Kevin we all know you are going to blow this out of the water being a dad.

[@Scotty220]

Kevin is going to be a tremendous father. Congrats Kevin and Paula!

[@steverome0770]

Love the podcast. Made me tear up hearing about their kids being little and me thinking about my own. Now I’m out front of their school waiting for open house. Time flies by so fast

[@loganr9710]

Big Congratulations to Kev! Love the KF Dadcast. Hope you guys do more podcasts as Kevin and Greg hit new milestones in the parenting journey.

[@kiddj55]

I couldn’t get through this without bawling. Just had my twins 2 months ago and everything Greg was saying about being present and missing the little things resonated with me. This conversation also reminds me of the talk me and my best friend had when I told him me and my gf were expecting.

[@iCb0x]

Kevins been a dad for the last 10 years. Him and Paula are about to be amazinggg parents. Congrats Kev dog!!

[@iDrewby]

We’re 2 months away from our second being born. I have been listening to KF since I was in high school and I love that you guys have grown with us. ❤

[@ThePhred66]

Congrats Kevin, I don't know you, but if you are like your on air personality, your gonna be a great dad. I wouldn't mind having you as a dad.

[@Zondo321]

My piece of unsolicited advice that I learned is: no matter what they say, baby's don't "just cry" for long stretches of time. Them crying is them saying "I need help" 90% of the time. And most of that time is something basic, Just check "are you hungry? Are you sleepy? You need changed? You need burped?" It's probably gonna be one of those things and you'll have a quiet happy baby. You're gonna crush it Kev! ❤❤❤

[@Zondo321]

Also in terms of "sleep schedule" obviously it will depend on kid and your schedule. But the cleanest and easiest thing we did was, my wife fed the baby ever hour or 2 at night so I did EVERYTHING else during the night. Burping, laying them down, and changing diapers. Not only cuz it makes it easy and clean to know who's "turn" it is, but also so you know when the last X was done and you don't have to ask the other whose trying to sleep about it

[@furrybproductions]

I'll one up that and say 99.96% of the time!

[@Zondo321]

@furrybproductions very true but my 2nd did legit just like to scream there head off and if i was like "whats wrong?" They would just stop and stare at me like "bro wtf I'm just screaming over here, leave me alone" lol

[@gxblinslayer]

Father of a 3yo girl, and have a boy coming on October 6th. Really really emjoyed this episode. Would love to have a podcast every now and then thats like this one for Dads, whether new or old to really be able to talk about it. As a Dad who also goes above and beyond for my kid from Day 1 it was such a breath of fresh air to hear yall have the same energy about playtime and engagement as you do about the mundane tasks like feeding and diaper changing. Was shocked to hear how common it is from mothers I talk to now about how many men (that arent bad people!) had no interest in doing the dirty work when it came the early stages of childcare. All the best to you Kevin, youre gonna be a great father! Greg, keep killing it too! Warms my heart seeing the way you love your son.

[@JRPJames]

So excited to listen to this. My son will be 7 this year, and I was listening to KF in the hospital while he was just a baby. Very hard two years but he pulled through. It happens FAST! Enjoy :)

[@SuperSmoker710]

im only 20 minutes in and i felt every emotion possible already

[@jmartman13]

Congrats! Going to be trying to start that phase of my life pretty soon. I like hearing Greg’s advice

[@QuackSsanctuary]

My daughter was exactly 3 months yesterday this episode hits. Gotta make sure to get them memories every where ya can

[@ASerrant2]

As a father to young kids I deeply appreciate this conversation.

[@Scantronacon]

Thats cool Kev got new family DLC droppin in October! These jokes as a dad are gold to me😜

[@MarcEasy94]

This episode is making me cry and think about my journey into father hood😢

[@Gamers2Angry]

“Only great parents think they’re going bad”. A a single father of a 7 year old. I needed that

[@JSoup575]

So thankful for this! My first is due in September and it feels both overwhelming and not real at the same time

My favorite episode so far ❤

[@PixelParentsPodcast]

Congratulations Kevin! Loved this podcast and from one group of dad’s to another - sure, life will be crazy with the little one, but it’s always worth it ❤

[@marvth3martian323]

What’s funny about the kids watching other kids play with toys is that it’s pretty much equivalent to streaming lol

[@victoria1030rose]

My husband and I found out yesterday we will go in to get induced a week from today. The question is, how far will my pregnant ass get into this podcast before Im crying?

[@furrybproductions]

When I got to the comment it said, "15 min ago" so I'm gonna Guess you made it about 15 min 🤣

[@Onetrackpunk]

I appreciate this episode.

[@OMGLX]

I am so here for the Kinda Daddy Popcast!! Seriously though -- Thank you for today's catharsis, gentlemen. I had always been generally kind of indifferent about the prospect of having kids (I frequently said I'd leave it up to my partner)-- then my nephew came on the scene, almost 5 years ago now. In being able to care for him, and more recently my newborn niece, I have developed an acute baby fever that has not waned, even as the idea of finding the right person with which to be a father seems evermore ethereal (these apps are the worst, man). Conversations like this, even if I am not going to be a father anytime soon, or perhaps ever will be, help me sort through my complex feelings about things and share, however minimally, in Greg's joy and Kevin's excitement. To wit, I cried when I first saw Greg's announcement at the front of a random Kinda Funny Podcast episode, and I cried again watching it in the background of this video, on mute. Love y'all for that. ❤

[@cooperm211]

As a high school audio production teacher for a decade, you two would definitely be stand out parents relative to the norm. In case that makes anyone feel any better lol

[@dellkennedy]

This was excellent! You may not remember but…When you were a toddler riding in the shopping cart, you would be munching on the broccoli before your mom got to the checkout.

[@wildpantalonez6508]

Congratulations Kevin! You're going to love it!

[@lancerloco]

You’re going to be great parents! Wishing you and your wife a healthy pregnancy and delivery! If I could recommend anything is the book (yes a book kev) called the “the daily dad” and it’s meant to be a pick up and put down, read a passage a day type thing. Really helped me understand and navigate my feelings becoming a dad. Also, all the advice you see on social media will make you feel a certain way, especially for the mom. Take it all with a grain of salt, treat it as ideas to try but never make it doubt yourself. We are all winging it as parents cause every kid is different. Congrats again!

[@GustavoZ86]

I lost my father when I was only 5 and my older brother took care of me the same way kev did for Spencer and the movie Onward definitely hit for us the same way it did for kev.

[@lutherdespain7908]

Congrats Kevin, as a daily listener and sometimes responder I know one thing and Kevin is gonna be a great dad ..and as a dad myself and knowing about how helpful it is to have a "village" holy shit is Kevin and Paula gonna be blessed with the KF crew, family and best friends. Now we have 2 kids for the new gen podcast just a few more for a full panel lol. Congrats and good luck.

[@dolfincorn]

as a 23 year old, having a kid is so foreign to me. i cant imagine it at all, and my sister has 4 kids at my age

[@itsRecreational]

Congrats big Kev! It’s simultaneously the most stressful and most rewarding thing you can do in life. Wouldn’t change it for anything though.

Just imagine when lil Kevdog finally sees the vid of his pops slipping in the backyard. 😆This was such a damn good episode. Gettin old, somebody play some Outkast. Its crazy those early internet days when IGN was the source, and this guy Greg just became like the defacto videogame news guy for so many of us, now look where its all at and the community and family thats built up around it.

Love everyone at kinda funny, but none of them as much as Kevin. I wish he was on more content! He is going to kill it as a Dad and it's weird being this excited for a complete strangers. I'm almost 31 and I have a 9 year and 6 year old daughter and a 2 year old son with my wife and it is such a privilege and so rewarding! There is nothing more exciting! All of our kids were planned and I always had the name and nursery done in record time to help with the excitement!

I can go on and on about how my Boomer ass parents couldnt give a shit about being good parents or grandparents to my 3 girls. For me, being the best possible father is the only option. From the birth of my first till my last breath I live for my kids, and eventually grand kids. Millenials will raise the greatest generation because our Boomer parents were largely not great. (To clarify, alot of boomer parents are fantastic, I realize Im generalizing but there are always exceptions)
