  • This Is How They Will Learn

    "It was said for all the genius that Socrates possessed, Plato, and Aristotle, and all the sages who learned from him 'derived more benefit from the character than from the words of Socrates.' So it was too for Zeno and Cleanthes, the two earliest Stoic philosophers. 'Cleanthes could not have been the express image of Zeno,' Seneca would write, 'if he had merely heard his lectures; he shared in his life, saw into his hidden purposes, and watched him to see whether he lived according to his own rules.'"

    Find out how to be this kind of teacher on today's Daily Dad Podcast.

  • Teach Them to See the Big Picture

    "Most of us are old enough to remember coming down to find our father at the breakfast table reading the newspaper. It was simply part of the routine, as it had been for generations, of the informed citizen. You read the news. Maybe you also remember them listening to talk radio in the car, or tuning into the nightly news on TV.

    While this was certainly admirable, the reality is that the news environment has changed."

    Hear some suggestions on how to consume media, alone or with your family, today on Daily Dad Podcast.

  • This Is the Kind of Coach You Have to Be

    "A father is a provider, a protector, a rule-setter, a friend. They are an educator and exemplar. They are also—whether their kids play sports or not—a coach. Because we have to coach our kids through so much in life. We coach them through new experiences, through the games of school and work and relationships, through life’s challenges and troubles."

    Listen to learn more about the intersection of coaching and parenting, in today's Daily Dad Podcast.

  • This Is What We Are Fighting For

    "Because of the fiery trial of the Civil War and what it came to represent, Abraham Lincoln is, to most of us, a figure of moral guidance. This naturally overshadows his almost equally unbelievable accomplishments: how did a poor boy on the frontier without formal schooling manage to teach himself to read, to teach himself the law, and become, in time, the President of the United States?"

    By using methods that should be available to all of our children, as Ryan discusses in today's Daily Dad Podcast.

  • This Is How To Teach Them to Be Understanding

    "One of the wonderful benefits of reading fiction, studies have begun to show, is that it helps cultivate empathy... It also happens that fiction—the best fiction anyway—teaches us this empathy by way of specific advice and admonition."

  • A Dad Must Ask For Help

    "If your kid was struggling, you’d want them to tell you, right? If they didn’t understand something in class, you’d want them to ask the teacher. If your neighbor needed something, you wouldn’t mind if they mentioned it. If your spouse was overwhelmed and needed a hand, you’d expect them to come to you. 

    Okay. But what about you? Are you okay?" Find out what you should do when you need help on today's Daily Dad Podcast.

  • It’s Time To Tap Into Their Energy

    "If you talk to any of your friends right now, you’ll hear stress. You’ll hear fear. You’ll hear anger. You’ll hear the fatigue in their voice, the wondering how much longer this can go on. 

    But if you talk to a kid?" That's a different story, as you'll find on today's Daily Dad Podcast.
