If there’s one thing that can make any parents feel equal to each other, it’s having their kids embarrass them in public and cause a standstill in their task-at-hand. This happened to gay dads
Dr. Paul Melchert and James Zimmerman yesterday at a marriage equality rally in Minnesota. Their sons, Emmett and Gabriel turned on the cute, and almost brought Melchart’s speech to an early close.

After seeing the antics, the audience laughed as Melchart introduced his family: “You’ve met Emmett, and his twin brother Gabriel…”

We’ve done a lot of shows over the past year. We’ve dedicated our time every week to try and make some informative and entertaining episodes for the digital fatherhood community. The videos we’ve been making have been pretty long and indigestible for most people, including us; even we don’t want to look at ourselves for more than a few minutes at a time. So we’re cutting our episodes into topic-based videos that will be around 5 minutes each.

Our new goal is to do two of these 5-minute videos per week. We’re asking for your support and we hope that you like what we do.

Colin Furze is just like any of us: he’s a guy, a dad, a hoodlum, and oh – he also holds three Guinness World Records, one for starting the largest bonfire. Furze hopes to extend his records to four after building what he hopes is the world’s fastest pram (that’s a stroller to us yanks).

Thirty-three year old English dad Furze built the stroller – and the sucker certainly doesn’t stroll; watch the video after the jumperooski. Also, for bonus points, Furze took some time to talk to 8BitDad about his creation, which although he didn’t say was more important to him than the Guinness record, we’re going to guess was.
