About this listen
2017 Independent Author Network Winner - Best Comedy/Satire Novel
What a mess. This was not supposed to happen.
This isn't where Nick Owen thought he would be by this point in life. He used to be a busy web programmer. Now, he spends most of his energy trying to stop his three-year-old twins from playing in a dirty sand pit. Nick thinks of himself as Daddy 3.0, a stay-at-home dad - but he just wasn't programmed for this.
He must navigate a new world of jungle gyms and play dates while supporting his surgeon wife. He tries his best to be there for the twins, but he can't stop making a mess of things. He's just about nearing the end of his rope when the Swing Incident happens. The Swing Incident, spoken of in hushed tones around Nick's New York City apartment building, has caused the resident queen bee, nicknamed "Supermom", to declare him an enemy for life. No matter what Nick does to get back into Supermom's good graces, he fails spectacularly.
Now, Nick's going to have to learn to fight fire with fire and become the best super-parent on the block. This hilarious new book by Rob Armstrong chronicles one man's journey into the world of modern fatherhood - one botched haircut, playground fight, and dirty diaper at a time.
Stay-at-home dads have a new hero, of sorts.

In Dad is Fat, stand-up comedian Jim Gaffigan, who’s best known for his legendary riffs on Hot Pockets, bacon, manatees, and McDonald's, expresses all the joys and horrors of life with five young children - everything from cousins ("celebrities for little kids") to toddlers’ communication skills ("they always sound like they have traveled by horseback for hours to deliver important news"), to the eating habits of four-year-olds ("there is no difference between a four-year-old eating a taco and throwing a taco on the floor").

Story
Lucy and Owen, ambitious, thoroughly-therapized New Yorkers, have taken the plunge, trading in their crazy life in a cramped apartment for Beekman, a bucolic Hudson Valley exurb. They've got a 200-year-old house, an autistic son obsessed with the Titanic, and 17 chickens, at last count. It's the kind of paradise where stay-at-home moms team up to cook the school's "hot lunch", dads grill grass-fed burgers, and, as Lucy observes, "chopping kale has become a certain kind of American housewife's version of chopping wood".

One day I was bebopping along, jamming to the music in my head while wondering if my thighs could handle grabbing a cupcake on the way home. The next thing I knew, my entire world crashed and burned. I used to wake up at night in a sweat, crying because I'd dreamt that my husband was cheating on me or that he hated me and resented my kids. He'd always hold me close and tell me it was all just a dream, that he loved me and our family and that he'd never let me go. He was a f--king liar.

So, this was like Mr. Mom merged with The Incredibles. As a father myself, it made for a very enjoyable and fun experience. Definitely worth checking out.

We see Nick as a fledging stay-at-home dad to twin girls. Over the course of the book he grows into his role while managing the many bumps along the way, most significantly keeping his working wife happy.
We applaud when he succeeds, wince when he fails (which he does often), and cringe every time 'super Mom' comes into view.
The narration was really good. I've listened to several Wehrlen books and it always amazes me that he captures the essence of his characters so well.
This is not a laugh-out-loud book of funny but it does hit the smirk button, especially for us parents.
Very enjoyable

Daddy 3.0 is Nick’s journey learning to be a full time parent, housekeeper, cook, and all those things associated with domesticity. Oh yes, he is also being a support to his severely overworked wife while she works through a year’s residency as a surgical fellow in a New York hospital. His adventure is funny, frustrating and fascinating. We learn about his relationships with other “moms” and the clever names he gives them. His experience as part of the co-op family association is interesting, especially his encounters with “super Mom”. His in-laws are so enthusiastic about his role as caregiver / slacker! What a treat.
Andrew Wehrlen’s narration of the story adds to the fun. I especially like his “lady voices”. So sit back, relax and enjoy, but be prepared to laugh out loud every once in a while. I would recommend this to anyone who is married (or not) with children (or child). I was given this audiobook, at my request, in exchange for an honest review.

What made the experience of listening to Daddy 3.0: A Comedy of Errors the most enjoyable?
As a stay at home mom I do enjoy these stories of men trying to do what we do. He really started out pretty crummy, and made a lot of dumb or lazy choices but as the book went on it was fun to watch him grow and be a better dad and then want to be a better dad and husband. It was a sweet story with a lot of comedy with the kids and then the other mom's in their building. I loved how he didn't use their names but gave them names based on their personality types - the annoying Supermom, Goodheart, and Lion Tamer were just a few of the main ones. It was a interesting switch in the story when I started actually rooting for him to do better... in the beginning he started out with a bad attitude and was rather annoying and I honestly wasn't sure I wanted to finish the book. I am glad I did. I do agree with one of the other reviewers that this would make a great movie.Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
It was more shock in some of his boneheaded choices... knowing that disaster was coming next.Any additional comments?
