I’ve been following The Dad probably since it was established. Being a new father in 2016, I was always appreciative of the relatable content that venerated fatherhood with a touch of humor and humi...more

It’s kinda helpful when you know the creators son @thelion

@hrlwesty • 211d

It was a winding path (but one it seems like others were also on). My wife was a huge fan of the Dad content. She would share the posts with me regularly and we would chuckle. When the Dad gaming...more

A TDG Kart group chat I'm a part of all joined up. convinced me to join the cult......

@night • 240d

Heard about it originally through @8oh5 / @sneakz and then one night @evolvixon raided me. I ended up giving Channel 3 a shot after some convincing from @buster and the rest is history.

@codyb • 240d

Someone in TDG kart gangs shared something about I believe Wednesday night racing on C3 so I signed up because at that point I was all about racing kart as much as possible. Took me awhile though bef...more

@whitethunder • 240d

I was deep in the guts of Kart Gangs when Joel left to make this, I got invited at the very beginning and never looked back

@ryansvikingbeard • 240d

@legodad invited me at the beginning. I came in, looked around and stepped backwards in fear of its greatness. After a while, he was interviewed on the podcast, and I started hunting around a bit more...more

@rey • 240d

Joel asked the dad mods if anyone wanted to take a look at this secret thing and I said yes of course I want to be part of the secret thing. It started as Good Reads for me and even before "lists" wer...more

@seth • 240d

One time @dan messaged me and I clicked the link. Ended up here.

@james • 240d

Gather around boys and girls, I've got a story for you. One day, I was reading a substack on how The Dad came to be and all lived happily ever after from there.

@dosandres • 240d

@jpegmario • 240d

I remember visiting home and @joel started telling me about it and I had no idea what it would turn into, it's pretty amazing!! Love the C3 story so far.

@rusty6713 • 240d

Got an invite from Dan when things were spinning up here. Was hesitant at first but glad I made the jump.

@ianr • 240d

Ditto @youngloganyoung , but a few months later! Crazy to say we live in a world where college students can take classes learning about video games and how to livestream video games. What’s also ...more

@travg • 240d

Like so many of us, TDG Mario Kart. It's such a great group!

@ggshadow • 240d

Been in the Dad Gaming Fortnite since the beginning and definitely wanted to support Joel’s new endeavor from all the work he put in!

@youngloganyoung • 240d

I took an esport class at Miami University. From that day I originally joined, I have been hooked on this site ever since

@rescuejoe84 • 240d

@gargada mentioned it one night while we were playing fortnite together. Sounded like something I would be interested in. Now my son is here also

@thunder • 240d

Pretty sure it was @dadalorian who brought me over from a small group chat we had out of TDGFN page. #GPM4L Could’ve been @gargada, can’t remember.

@kelseyb • 240d

@codyb made me make an account that I did almost nothing with for a long time (new things are hard for me, okay? 😩). But now I’m here and I love it. 🥰

@joob • 240d

I came over with a lot of folks from TDG. I was on a Kart Gangs team with @teets, @froggy as well as @joel at the time - who kept teasing us what he was up to (going pro at Mario Kart, starting Scary ...more

@legodad • 240d

I was following the dad on socials and somehow came across a post from @joel talking about gaming and so I requested an invite. The rest is history, nerds!

@laughatbrian • 240d

@danioverhere 's fault. They introduced us via email. I just went back and read the emails and it was kinda cool seeing and hearing about Channel 3 before it was even a thing. Channel 3 was a "super s...more

@bitzdad • 240d

@dan sent me this message and an invite code. As a NES kid, the Channel 3 name had me intrigued from the start.

@saturnrogue • 240d

@froggy shared a referral link on Facebook. Clicked on the link and the rest was history. I definitely can say that, he recruited me and I’m thankful for that.

@cayden • 240d

@jedijohann and @liljediray told me about this site and I thought was cool and joined

@highflyinpenguin • 240d

Naturally followed our fearless leader and fellow Cincinnati native @joel from TDG to here! Excited to see it/help it grow!

@jackalope • 240d

I was a part of the DadBods Gaming on Discord for several years. Then Joel recruited @sprondeau and he recruited me.

@jedijohann needed more upvotes and respawns for a TotK video quest to beat @ganonslayer so he recruited from our boardgame group. EDIT: Turns out it was @spinit2winit but the important part was ...more

@jaimecitoamor • 241d

I’m 90% sure it was @joel inviting me, but there is an 8% chance it was @dan and I leave the other 2% to one of you others I played Smash or MK with on TDG.

@infocynic • 240d

For once, "I blame @joob" isn't just a meme. We worked together a few years ago and stay in touch, and he mentioned this site. After months of not being convinced, I believe it was in s3 when the min...more
