Glen Henry "Beleaf in Fatherhood": I Didn't Know Adults Had Fun?

It all started with a somewhat blind double date. The story of Chris and Lauren Tomlin is one for the ages. It's definitely not a straight line, but it continues in the best possible way. From Lauren's motto of "Ready, Fire, Aim," to their children asking Chris if he could help facilitate songwriting advice, this episode is an all-timer.

We knew this was going to be a special episode as soon as Ernie Hudson hopped on the line. There was barely enough room for his biceps. The fellas talk with Ernie about being a working actor and a single dad, his life growing up with his grandmother in Michigan, and the immense pride he has as a father and grandfather. An absolute legend joins this week in Dadville.
