Dama Dads - A Kendama Podcast
Welcome to the Dama Dads Podcast, hosted by Matt "Sweets" Jorgenson & Jake Wiens. On top of being fathers, Matt and Jake run two of the most popular Kendama companies in the world. Between the unpredictability of being parents, playing kendama, and running their businesses, there's never a dull moment between them.
