Frontotemporal Dementia: The Disease That Looks Like Mental Illness (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Doctors kept saying it was just anxiety or depression. They put her on 72-hour holds and sent her to behavioral health. It wasn’t. It was frontotemporal dementia (FTD). This video is for every son and only child who is watching their parent loop on the same fears — the power is being shut off, people are breaking into the house, the taxes aren’t paid, they have no health insurance — while the system keeps calling it a mental health problem. I walked this road with my mom starting in May 2024. I’
No More Dirty Falling Band-Aids: Testing Yehooheal Hydrocolloid on My Sons’ Road-Trip Injuries (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What’s going on, Dad? Summer means cuts, scrapes, trampoline wipeouts, and road-trip battle wounds. Traditional Band-Aids get dirty, fall off in the pool, and slow everything down. As a former paramedic with a large metropolitan fire department, I tested the Yehooheal Medical Grade Hydrocolloid Roll (0.006-inch optimally thin, storage case, 16.4 ft total) on both of my boys after our big Yosemite road trip. One had a trampoline toe injury. The other took a real chunk out of his finger. We cleane
From Lemonade Stand to Lawn Mowing – We Built the Trailer Himself (opens the original)
Read excerpt
My son wanted to take his neighborhood business from a lemonade stand to lawn mowing… but how do you haul a mower around on a bike? So Bromley and I engineered and built a full DIY bike trailer that carries the mower, battery storage, and tools. This turned into one of the best father-son projects we’ve ever done — planning, measuring, cutting, bending pipe, safety lessons, and a lot of real engineering with the kids. If you’re a dad looking for a meaningful summer project that also teaches your
Before You See The Odyssey, Watch This (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey is dominating theaters, but if you’re just watching for the special effects, you’re missing the entire point. Homer isn't just ancient literature; it’s a tactical survival guide for the modern father. I sit down with classical philosopher CB Robertson to strip away the Hollywood hype and reveal 5 hidden lessons inside the Iliad and the Odyssey. We dive deep into philosophy as an actionable strategy, surviving societal madness, and mastering your role as the protec
Edinburgh with 3 Kids: Family Adventure in Scotland | Driving on the Left & More (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hey brother, we just got back from an incredible family trip to Edinburgh, Scotland with my wife and our three kids under 10. In this episode I walk you through exactly what we did — from staying at the stunning Edinburgh Grand to driving on the left side of the road, taking the tram, enjoying a Michelin-star dinner at The Kitchin, and making our own chocolate at the Chocolatarium. Real talk on international family travel with young kids: the challenges, the wins, and why these trips are worth e
