This weekend Ryan ran the Melbourne Marathon.

In this episode we hear from him in the lead-up to the marathon and then how he felt after doing the marathon.

We find out if he actually completed the marathon and if a pizza and a parma are legitimate marathon foods.

We also find out:

How much training he did and if it meant stopping other activities (or life)?

Whether this inspired him to run marathons in other locations or was it just a bucket list item ticked off (one and done).

If he felt like giving up at any point.

What did he think bout or do while he ran.

What food and/or drink he had while he ran.

We are pretty proud of him and him ticking another item of his Bucket List here at Daddy Eats last so have a listen to the pre-race and post-race Ryan Ebert.

REMEMBER: If you have any suggestions for topics please send through to [email protected] and we will be sure to include them.

Is the modern man a hunter or a gentleman? A manual labourer or a technophile? In today's culture the modern man usually is a mix of many things. The modern man must be adaptable.

Gender roles are changing and blending together and the stay-at-home dad or part time dad population is growing.

More fathers than ever are participating in their children's nurturing and upbringing.

The thing is that fathers and mothers come into the parenting process differently though. For the mother, the connection is biological. It's a part of her.

Fathering, on the other hand, is less so. Therefore, it's important for men to learn the skills they need to be a good dad. For some guys it's more intuitive, like kicking a football, but most guys need a coach or some direction.

DADDY EATS LAST discusses what it means to be a man and a father in modern society and all the issues that comes with both.
