KnockBack, Episode 141: Dagan and His Son

When you grow up with a father who's obsessed with all things retro, it's safe to assume the apple won't fall from the ever-nerdy tree. In that spirit, we have a guest on this episode: Dagan's son, Graeden. Together, father and son take a walk through their shared passions -- video games, especially -- and how one dad's love of nostalgia naturally enchanted his kid. The end result is something we hope you find charming, if not a little different. It's almost like getting to interview our younger selves, and we hope you get a kick out of it.

KnockBack, Episode 141: Dagan and His Son

Comments

This was a fantastic episode! I have a 10 year old son and a 13 year old daughter and I can just feel the love you have for your kids. One of my favorite episodes yet!

Travis Wafer

Thank you!

Colin Moriarty

Thanks. <3

Colin Moriarty

Trust me, I am working on his lack of Castlevania fandom. He's missing out.

Colin Moriarty

I love this!

Tyron Hay

I also want to say I agree with Dagan that he is very similar to Colin in more ways than his taste in games the main thing I notice that is similar is his genuine honesty

Blake Wall

You talk about him not liking Castlevania but there is a lot of variation in the series I recommend showing him some of the different types of Castlevania games from different eras and systems

Blake Wall

It's not his best movie but have you guys seen The Cat Returns it has its problems but its still a great movie

Blake Wall

We're all used to it in this family with our last name alone. <3

Colin Moriarty

Poor kid is gonna be spelling out that name to customer service representatives for decades. All kidding aside Graeden is more eloquent at 10 than I am at 27.

YaBoyStevieJay

Thank you! We're so glad you liked it.

Colin Moriarty

Hahaha! We'll get Graeden involved when he's ready.

Colin Moriarty

Colin Moriarty

Thanks ma!

Colin Moriarty

Maybe he can do that one day.

Colin Moriarty

Thank you. <3

Colin Moriarty

Thanks for listening!

Colin Moriarty

Colin Moriarty

Only one way to find out.

Colin Moriarty

He's got good taste. Except for with Castlevania, which he doesn't care about.

Colin Moriarty

Thank you!

Just want to add to the pile of positivity! This was a wonderful deviation from the norm. I'd totally love if this were a yearly or semiannual thing! Or like someone else mentioned, highlighting some of the contemporary Nintendo titles that Colin isn't keen on. Also great job on the editing Dustin!

Jordan Falduto

I’m sending Dagan my thoughts on this ep directly, but Colin if you read this I believe you’ve found your hosts for the CLS Nintendo podcast. In addition, I’d love for you to get Graeden’s thoughts on Sackboy for PS5.

NeO JD

What a great episode! My son is seven and has a lot of the same interests.

Forrest Hunter

Great job, Graed!!! 👏🏻 You did ok too, Dagan! 😉❤️❤️

Shouldve called it "Look How Old I Am Graiden."

There’s No I in LLC

Just how absolutely offended he got when Fortnite was brought up was hilarious lol

Josh Gamez

This was great. Youve raised Graden well. "Fortnite sucks" gives me hope for the next generation 🤣🤣🤣

Erik Peterson

I want Dagan to introduce me when I become a UFC fighter.

Jeremy Seal

As a resident of PA, the PSSA talk brought up some dark memories of my grade school days. Great show as always!

John Lang

Gotta agree with Graden on this one Dag, let him watch the show!, and stop with the daddy nonsense, hes 10 :D

Ryan Murdoch

This was SUCH a cool episode. Makes me excited to be a dad someday.

Taylor Laduron

Great job guys.

Ryan Murdoch

Please, I hope this ep starts with “Boy...”

Marco Maluf
