Fearless Fathers

Fearless Fathers

A podcast about overcoming challenges surrounding fatherhood. The show features everyday challenges dads face, with relatable ways to overcome them and a little comedy thrown in. Guests on the show range from regular dads like you who share their stories and how they became more vital fathers. There is something to take away from every episode from adoptions, mental health, being new fathers, and more. We want to see you thrive as a dad. We want you to cut those toxic family legacies that no longer serve you so that you can succeed for your families. It‘s time to take hold of the challenges we face and grow with our children. Let‘s Rethink Fatherhood!

Grab your climbing gear, cause we're setting for the summit. We're heading up to the top of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs and the profound relevance it plays in being a dad. 

 

As we start this journey you need to pack the tools you'll need to make this perilous trip.

As fathers, we often find ourselves navigating an intricate web of responsibilities, emotions, and aspirations. By understanding Maslow's Hierarchy and its implications...

We are back from our break. This Memorial Day, we raise a glass to a great friend of ours who we served with. He unexpectedly died during a work accident. He was a loving father, veteran, mentor, and all-around great person whom we had the privilege of knowing. This also marked three years of Fearless Fathers. We share some stories coming up in the podcast.

We'll be talking about child leashes: the controversial contraption that has parents everywhere divided. Some say it's a practical way to keep your little ones safe in crowded areas, while others think it's slightly reminiscent of dog walking.    We'll be exploring both sides of the argument, discussing the pros and cons of child leashes with a dash of humor thrown in for good measure.    Whether you think child leashes are ridicul...

Co-parenting can be one of the most difficult parts of navigating a divorce. Depending on how old they are, you may have many years of close co-parenting ahead of you. Your children are observing everything you do. How you treat your former spouse is becoming part of your children’s wiring. For most people, there is a period of 1-5 years during a divorce that has the potential to be extremely toxic. It’s not easy, but you owe it to...

Taxes have always been an issue where Ryan and Dave come from in Pennsylvania. After some digging, we found out just how bad it is. 

 

PA courts just ruled that certain schools are severely underfunded after a lengthy suit. We broke down just how much they are and what are some things we, as dads, could do to help fix this injustice in our kid's education.

In this episode, we explore how our past can dictate how we parent and how we can work to be better fathers by first understanding ourselves.     We all have a past that shapes who we are. And for many of us, that past includes absent or difficult relationships. This can make it hard to be the father we want to be. But if we take the time to reflect on who we think we are, we can harness who we want to be. Mike shares a deep dive i...

We talk about the super bowl matchup and how much woke "culture" can be good and evil. Ways that we dads can use wokeness as a way to prepare our kids better and not be super polarizing.

We talk about how our holidays went, and, thanks to a listener, we talk about what to do to reconnect to our children after a deployment.

 

Great stuff in there if you have a job that keeps you away from your children for long periods.

Gaming has been ingrained in our culture since the 80s. Through that time, gaming has been scrutinized by lawmakers, other gamers, and even parents. 

 

A Canadian Federal Case revolving around Epic Games "Fortnite" is going to Class Action court for "being as addicting as cocaine." 

 

So, naturally, being avid gamers and having little ones in gaming age, we talk about the lawsuit pending, is gaming really addictive, and what steps ...

Hey Fearless Family,

 

There will be no episode after Thanksgiving so we can spend time with our loved ones!

 

Dave O sits down one and one on something he leaked during the State of the Show. Like the title says, I just about gave up on something that meant more to me and would benefit myself and my family for life. 

 

I went through everything in the personal development stage I thought was true, I almost said was complete BS.

It's the most wonderful time of the year.

 

NO, not you maxing out your credit cards and Santa taking all the credit. It's our yearly state of the show on Fearless Fathers. 

 

We're talking about where we've been (medically and emotionally), where the show is heading, new ways we're branching the podcast out, and much much more. 

 

Doing this state of the show is an excellent reminder for all of us that no matter how hard you work ...

What's the price we pay as parents when we buy our kids everything they want? It may not just be a hole in our wallets but something that compounds over time. As parents, it's instinctual that we want to give our kids all the best things we can...but at what cost? 

 

We walk a fine line (cause that's what we do here) about indulging in our kid's wants. From the why we do it to how it can lead to everlasting impacts into adulthood, ...
