  • Do You Do This Over Dinner?

    “Some families watch TV at dinner. Some families eat separately. Some families talk idly about their day. Dinner at Agnes Callard’s house is different. She and her children debate.”

    Ryan challenges you to think about what your family dinner conversation is concerned with, on today’s Daily Dad podcast.

  • They Don’t Understand Time (Do You?)

    “Think about where you were fifteen years ago. Twenty. Just how long ago that was. Now think about your thoughts from fifteen years ago. Maybe that takes you back too far, but even that is illustrative: when we’re younger, we have a very limited conception of time… because we haven’t experienced much of it.”

    Ryan explains why you should instill a genuine concept of time in your kids, on today’s Daily Dad podcast.

  • Be Something and Somebody

    “E.H Harriman was a hell of a businessman and, as we’ve talked about before, a surprisingly good father. He had a reputation as a rapacious industrialist, but at home he was tender and engaged with his kids. He was patient and instilled in them good values.”

    Ryan discusses why you should set high expectations for your children, on today’s Daily Dad podcast.

  • Lay Down These Rules

    “Every family is going to have their own rules. Some parents want a “Yes, sir” and Yes, Ma’am,” others are OK being called by their first name. Some tolerate elbows on the table, others won’t even allow screen time. Every family is different, so every family will have different rules.”

    Ryan explains why you must show more than you tell, on today’s Daily Dad podcast.

  • Are You Telling Them This?

    “As a young novelist, Susan Straight was told by her mentor, the great James Baldwin, “You must continue to write. It is imperative.” Imagine how different that was than the example she got from her own mother, who as we explained, believed her own creative life was over the day she had kids.”

    Ryan explains why you must believe in your children, on today’s Daily Dad podcast.

  • We Can Choose Our Parents

    “We were given two parents. Or maybe one. Or maybe more. All of our upbringings were different, and outside of our control. We didn’t get to decide who our mom was or who our dad was, if they got divorced, if they were present, if our stepparents were a blessing or a nightmare.”

    Ryan discusses the ability that you have to choose who you model yourself after, on today’s Daily Dad podcast.

  • Classics Are The Key

    “You like stuff. your kids like different stuff. It’s a conflict as old as parenthood itself. Music, food, art--the generational divide is real. Does this mean we can’t even connect? No, of course not. There is something we should always be able to enjoy together--the stuff that transcends generations: The classics.”

    Ryan explains why you should bond with your children over things that will stand the test of time, on today’s Daily Dad podcast.

    “Rich Cohen loves hockey. He loves watching his kids excel at it. Like any parent, the last thing he wants to see is for them to struggle, or worse, to not get their fair share--whether it’s playing time or respect.”

    Ryan explains why you should learn to let go of what isn’t essential to your job when parenting your children, on today’s Daily Dad podcast.
