Don’t believe in ghosts or aliens? You might after this episode. My dad was a tough nut to crack this time round until we get into his favorite topics: aliens, ghosts, unexplained phenomena and Bob Lezar. When I was a baby, my mom and dad moved into a haunted house.

We have a special guest! A real-life kid! What better way to teach my dad how to be a father than having him interact with a child. Five-year-old Alo and his mom, Kate, join us on this week’s episode to see if I have made any progress trying to teach my dad how to talk to children. And Bobby gives Alo's mom one of his famous fruit readings. And as always, he is on point.

My Dad reads 'The Night Before Christmas' in the most Bobby way possible, with a groove, percussion and vocal breaks. What was supposed to be a classic holiday tradition turned into a performance piece. Grab a cup of coco, a blanket and sit back and relax as little drummer Bobby performs 'The Night Before Christmas'.

I got engaged and going to tell my distant dad the big news over the podcast. This is normally an exciting announcement for a traditional father and daughter. But I had a feeling he wasn't going to have a classic father of the bride reaction.

Since Bobby left I've been feeling a little uneasy. I haven't heard from him and it seems that we have gone back to a distant relationship. It feels like the same father-daughter relationship we had before and my abandonment issues have hit a high.

We finally do the one father-daughter activity Bobby has been dreading this whole time, reading me a bedtime story. Part of learning how to be a great dad is doing some of the things you don’t want to do and Bobby is accepting that’s part of fatherhood. So today, Bobby reads me Yertle the Turtle by Dr.Zeus. And don’t worry, there are voices.

Bobby comes from a long line of circus folk and Nikki is determined to learn about his side of the family. After Nikki teaches Bobby how to cook one of the most difficult dishes known to...Goldie Lox?

Bobby and I are starting to get a bit annoyed with each other (if you couldn’t tell) and we are coming to the end of our time together. I’m becoming more controlling and he’s making me that way! It all started with a confrontation over the microwave. On the plus side we’ve gotten close enough that we’re starting to call each other out… but is this really a good thing? How much progress are we really making?

Hey dad, why didn't you call me? The flood gates have opened and my resentment and tit-for-tat mentality comes pouring out. Despite Bobby (aka the enigma man) feeling “internal” today he’s made the very fatherly decision to join me anyway, and in this episode our big topic is how to communicate with your daughter as an absent father who’s trying to be less… well, absent.

It’s time for Bobby to help me with some homework—we’re skipping math class this time and going straight for the adult stuff. I’ve got an audition and he’s going to help me prepare for it like he’s a dad helping his daughter with her homework. Let’s do this!

Bobby has basically moved in. He’s got his AA and self help books spread around the kitchen, there’s Nicorette gum everywhere and his laptop that’s weirdly hooked up to an external hard drive is sitting on the table ALL THE TIME. So, I think it’s time we dig into everything that it takes to become a good dad.

My dad has just arrived in L.A. and we're about to spend the most amount of time together we have in our life—one week. He's 65, I'm 33, and we haven't spent more than five days together. This could be a disaster.

See, Bobby wasn't around most of my life—he's a rock n'roll drummer (need I say more)—and for most of my life we’ve had an awkward, distant, pretty much non-existent relationship. He was an absent father. But a few years ago my friend's dad passed away and it made me realize how much I didn’t know about my dad and that I wanted to change that.
