Instagram just rolled out a major safety update for teen accounts, and it's one every parent should know about. In this episode, we break down what the new PG-13 content filter means, how it works, and why Meta says it's the most significant change since Teen Accounts launched. From filtered content to stricter parental controls and new AI age detection, we explore what this update actually does—and what it doesn’t. Whether your teen’s already on Instagram or you’re debating when to let them join, this conversation will help you feel more informed, more prepared, and maybe even a little more hopeful about navigating social media as a parent.

In this special ADHD Awareness Month episode of SocialDad, host James opens up about being diagnosed with ADHD at 42 and how it completely changed his life as a dad. Joined by co-host Sam, the two explore how ADHD really looks in adults, why so many people go undiagnosed, and how new research and tools—like the online platform FasTreat—are making diagnosis and treatment easier than ever.

They dive into global ADHD trends, from Canada’s rise in school diagnoses to Finland’s movement-based classrooms, and talk honestly about parenting, mental health, and learning to embrace your brain’s quirks.

It’s funny, heartfelt, and refreshingly real—a must-listen for dads, parents, and anyone trying to make sense of their own busy mind.

The SocialDad Podcast is back! After a well-earned break, I’m back behind the mic with a fresh season full of good news, real parenting talk, and cozy fall vibes.

In this comeback episode, I’m sharing a few uplifting stories from around the world (including one about a very good therapy dog), some easy autumn crafts that don’t cost a fortune, and simple comfort-food recipes that’ll make your kitchen smell amazing. We’ll also talk about new tech updates parents should actually know about—like Apple’s latest screen-time feature and AI tools showing up in schools.

Grab a coffee, pull up a chair, and let’s kick off the new season of The SocialDad Podcast together.
