Every story has a beginning — and this is ours. In this penultimate episode of Season 1, we pull back the curtain on Ask Dad: where it came from, why it exists, and why heart-led guidance still matters in a world full of algorithms and automated answers. Spoiler: parenting, support, and life advice should come from people who’ve lived it — not just processed it. Let’s be real — if AI could parent, it’d still need a software update every time a teenager rolled their eyes.

We also dive into a listener question about love, ambition, and the tricky art of timing — when two people want different things at the same time. It’s a conversation about balancing personal growth with partnership, and how to hold on to what matters without losing yourself along the way.

Because love and timing don’t always sync — and figuring that out might be the most grown-up thing of all.

The love is real and the man is real - we talk about it all. The good. The bad. The Dad.
