Does the phrase "Field Day" strike fear, exhaustion, or competitive joy into your heart? You aren't alone.

Welcome back to another episode of the Working Perspectives Podcast! This week, we are tackling the ultimate parenting gauntlet: School Olympic Day/Field Day. From dealing with the heat and the chaotic events to navigating the unspoken rules of interacting with other parents, we’re breaking down the ins and outs of the big day.

Because there is no "one size fits all" manual for fatherhood, we are bringing you three completely different points of view:

🧢 Matt shares the tag-team logistics from the Married Dad perspective.

🧢 Bern breaks down navigating school events from the Divorced Dad perspective.

🧢 Liam talks flying solo at the parent gauntlet from the Single Dad perspective.

Whether you're packing the cooler, cheering from the sidelines, or volunteering to run the potato sack race, we’ve got you covered.

👇 Tell us in the comments: What is your craziest or funniest Field Day memory as a parent?
