It’s Family Time on Parent Footprint! Dr. Dan welcomes The Brooker Family — their POPcast recently launched Season 2! Hosted by 2-time Emmy Award-winning and Webby Award-winning journalist, actor and comedian Heather Brooker, her husband Chris and their 10-year-old daughter, Channing, their show is the first ever video podcast to bring parents and kids together to talk about entertainment, video games, music, pop culture and more.  Dr. Dan interviews Heather and Chris about their family, their family entertainment video podcast, and how three entertaining personalities, all of them in the performing and creative arts, pour over pop culture current topics and releases together. This episode is like The Brookers —  relatable, unfiltered, fun, and funny!  

Heather Brooker is an Emmy Award-winning actress/comedian. She’s appeared in over 40 films and TV shows including “Grey’s Anatomy,” “The Office,” “Fresh Off The Boat,” “The Mindy Project'' and more. Heather was in the unprecedented role of digital entertainment reporter for KNBC in Los Angeles, where she regularly interviewed celebrities and luminaries in Hollywood. On her top rated podcast, Heather discusses her two passions — parenting and show business — and has a hilariously addicting, tell-it-like-it-is personality. In the six years since creating Motherhood in Hollywood, Heather has built a community of nearly 1 million followers across her social media and online platforms. She recently spoke at the GirlUp Leadership Summit alongside Michelle Obama, Hillary Clinton and Meghan Markle about gender equity and body positivity and is passionate about empowering women to love their bodies of every shape and size.
