Episode 75 - 

For a populace who loves itself some competition, don't we still find ourselves strangely averse to failure?  The era of participation trophies (is that still a thing?) and 'no child left behind' would indicate we're more willing to work around failing than we are to face it head on.  Yet it is often the case the most successful among us are those who have, in fact, failed a great deal.  The difference is their failure became a catalyst--not a hindrance for--their success.

Ben hoists an anti-trophy for the triumphs of failure as lead on this episode, while Chad valiantly participates (hoping for a green ribbon?) as co-host.  The two talk through how failure has influenced their own lives and explore ways to better leverage failure in the future.  What are some examples of competencies that are most suitably attained through trial and error?  What is it about failing that teaches a greater lesson than being sheltered from it?  And how can fathers become better mentors to those in their charge?
