Dads, Deals and Dumbbells: The Podcast
What happens when two entrepreneurial dads trade dumbbells for brooms and try one of the strangest-looking Olympic sports on earth?
In this episode, Joe and Dr. Quill head to Windy City Curling to learn the basics of curling with Tom Arra — software product builder, triathlete, curling coach, and proud dog dad. What starts as a fun new experience turns into a real lesson in discipline, mindset, fitness, and why curling is way harder than it looks on TV.
We get into:
🥌 Tom’s background in big companies vs. startups
💼 The difference between structure and chaos in business
🧠 His personal motto: “Just show up”
🏃 Triathlon training, brick workouts, and choosing suffering on purpose
🐶 Dog dad life, snacks, and the legendary Roomba incident
🧹 Why sweeping is basically aggressive mopping with consequences
😂 Our final verdict on whether curling is a “real sport”
Big thanks to Tom Arra and the team at Windy City Curling for showing us the ropes and letting us embarrass ourselves on the ice.
