This week on Father Time with De'Meco & Blair, we're diving deep into fatherhood, family connections, and the hilarious realities of navigating life both on and off-screen! We're reflecting on our recent in-person episode, that unforgettable Fore The Sole 2 charity golf event (shoutout to Bata Sole, Fairway Chi, and Ateneo Golf!), and the joy of seeing Maejari meet her "Uncle Bear" Blair for the very first time!

Plus, we're reflecting on our recent Father Time On The Go video! We paid a visit to Homecourt Collective inside Miyagi Records, chatting with founders Alex and Melissa about fatherhood (and their favorite fictional dads!), and trying the brand new "Father Time" coffee drink they're creating just for us!

And of course, we're tackling the big questions:

• How do we balance our online personas with our real-life roles as dads?
• What's it like being "on" all the time, and how do we recharge?
• What was it like for Maejari to finally meet Blair?
• How did Blair's reunion with his daughter Penelope in Oregon go?
• And, as always, "This Week's Forgotten Fictional Father" makes a triumphant return!

Get ready for laughs, insights, and a whole lot of proud dad talk.

Step up to the plate with De'Meco & Blair on this week's Father Time as they connect with Zach Neal (aka Nealy!), a retired Major League Baseball pitcher and the founder of the rapidly growing community, Golf Dads. As fellow fathers navigating the exciting and often unpredictable world of raising kids, they dive deep into Zach's transition from the pressures of the MLB mound to the joys (and occasional chaos) of fatherhood, all while building a thriving brand with a powerful mission: to help break the cycle of fatherlessness.

Discover the inspiring origin story behind Golf Dads, born from Zach's unique experience in Japan during the COVID-19 pandemic. Hear about Zach's vision to create a community that supports and encourages engaged fatherhood, ultimately aiming to empower initiatives that uplift children and families. As an example of this commitment, a portion of the profits from Golf Dads sales are dedicated to supporting programs like Hope Farm (https://hopefarm.org/leadership-development-program/), which provides vital leadership development for young people.

Zach shares candid insights into his time in Major League Baseball, including his heartfelt connection to the Oakland A's and his perspective on the challenges facing the franchise. The conversation beautifully illustrates the balancing act of pursuing personal interests, like golf, while being a present and engaged dad – a core tenet of the Golf Dads philosophy.

From the lessons learned in the minor leagues to the different kinds of love parents provide, Zach offers a relatable and honest look at the journey of fatherhood. They explore the purpose-driven nature of the Golf Dads brand, going beyond merchandise to create a genuine community for dads who love the links and are passionate about making a positive impact on the issue of fatherlessness.

Tune in as they discuss the impact of COVID-19 on Zach's career and family life, the importance of maintaining perspective, and how experiences in professional sports can surprisingly translate into valuable parenting lessons. They even touch on the influence of fictional fathers in media and answer fan questions, offering personal anecdotes and wisdom gained from their unique experiences.

Plus, hear Nealy’s nostalgic memories as a baseball fan, the stories behind his walkout music, his golfing preferences, and the humorous superstitions that creep into both sports and parenting!

This episode is a home run for any dad, sports enthusiast, or anyone looking for inspiration on balancing passion, family, and contributing to a meaningful cause like strengthening fatherhood and supporting the next generation. Join the conversation!
