  • Josh Brolin: "I Just Had A Parenting Freak Out"

    Josh Brolin sits down with Ryan, fresh off a full-blown parenting meltdown. As he puts it, “I just had to read The Daily Dad to calm the f**k down.” In today's episode, Josh and Ryan dive into the raw realities of fatherhood, the influence of his own parents, and the timeless lessons that continue to shape him as a dad.

    Josh Brolin's breakout role was in The Goonies (1985), and after a hiatus from Hollywood, he made a powerful comeback in No Country for Old Men (2007). He received an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor for his portrayal of Dan White in the biopic Milk (2008). Brolin is also known for playing Thanos in the Avengers series, Cable in the Deadpool films, and Gurney Halleck in the Dune franchise.
