America’s Crisis Daddy, Andrew Cuomo, is quickly becoming a dark horse candidate for president with his calming and soothing press conferences during the current pandemic.  Have the Dems found their Messiah?  Are you willing to risk your life for the economy? Fox News and Wall Street bankers want to send people back to work during the pandemic in order to protect the wealthy.  Some will live and some will die is their thinking. The Senate passes a $2 Trillion stimulus package. The House begins debate today and may vote on the package soon, although there are some rumblings that there may be a delay after Republican Representative Thomas Massie of Kentucky sought to force members to return to DC for the vote. We think we just go with Rashida Tlaib’s proposal, the “Automatic BOOST to Communities Act,”  which calls for minting two $1 trillion coins to fund the relief package without taking on debt. That can be done without taking on any debt under the legal authority of the Treasury Department.  Joe Biden has finally spoken to masses from his coronavirus bunker.  And well, at this point Joe should not go on TV.    UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson tests positive for the novel coronavirus. And what will Trump pivot to in order to try to win reelection? PA Governor Wolf went hard on the lockdown then backtracked due to pressure from the business sector. At least the PA Primary is postponed. On today’s Last Call we shift into quarantine mode and bring you our suggestions for movies, books, and activities to make it through our new reality. Of course, we still bring you updates on the latest releases from Free Will Brewing and other local breweries.

On this "quick cast, Aaron Chase style" podcast, Carlos discusses what it feels like to finally be a father. No dumb movie is being watched as he heads to The Hideaway cafe to get back on the comedy grind. He explains what its like to be back doing comedy, as well as shows his admiration on the development of fellow comedian Stephen Roth.

David Marion, a great gymnastics and movement coach I met in Perth talks about his experiences in his own training and coaching. He's probably one of the most stubborn guys I've met so far, when it comes to keep working on yourself despite of unfavourable circumstances.

The concept is a familiar one. Scripture refers to “beauty from ashes,” and even non-believers know what it means to “turn lemons into lemonade.” The idea is that something beautiful and wholly good can come from circumstances that are anything but lovely. Such is the story of today’s guest, Stoney Stamper. He’s the owner of TDD Media and the author of a popular parenting blog, The Daddy Diaries. Stoney grew up on a large quarter horse farm in small-town Oklahoma, and he still makes Oklahoma his home with his wife, April, and their three daughters, ages 18, 15, and 6. Because Gordon has always loved writing, journaling, and storytelling, it was easy to begin blogging about his initiation into “Daddy Life” as he and April blended their family. His unique style of storytelling, infused with humor and transparency about life’s successes AND failures, quickly drew a massive audience that today includes readers from over 112 countries. He’s published numerous articles in magazines and has a new book, My First Rodeo, that’s hot off the press. In today’s conversation, Stoney shares the story of the tragic car accident in 2017 that nearly took his life, but left him facing multiple surgeries and a lifetime of physical challenges. He says much good has come from the tragedy as his family has grown closer and stronger, and he has learned to count his blessings and be grateful every day. His advice to listeners is, “Have faith and stay the course, even in the hard times.” Don’t miss Stoney’s inspirational story of victory over tragedy.   Resources: Find out more about Stoney and his blog: www.thedaddydiaries.net Get Stoney’s book: www.thedaddydiaries.net/myfirstrodeo Find Stoney on Facebook and Instagram: The Daddy Diaries

Most people have heard of the infamous term, the Helicopter Parent, but did you know there was a whole list of parenting styles including a new term, the Lawnmower Parent? Don't get us wrong, everyone parents differently! What works for you may not work for others; whether you fall into a category or not, some parenting styles just do not fit you. Or maybe they do and you just weren't aware. In this episode, Alana and Xia discuss and describe the different parenting styles and which one(s) they believe they identify as. They also discuss Thanksgiving and talk about some Mommy Wins they had this week.REAL MOMS TOO INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/realmomstoo/ REAL MOMS TOO FB COMMUNITY: https://www.facebook.com/RealMomsToo/?ref=

The man, the myth, the legend of Eat, Train, Progress is back with me a year after our first episode together (#70.) Patrick Umphrey is someone I have a great deal of love and respect for in the fitness community and he returns so we can talk a little bit more about Daddy Life. Many of you may remember that of the many things Patrick and I have in common, it's that we both have sons with autism. I hope you'll listen to this show so we can compare notes, if you will, about how fatherhood has continued to evolve since that last episode. You can learn more about Patrick through his online community "Eat, Train, Progress" on Facebook.

Wrapped up a daddy weekend with our youngest Queen and bout to go check out Black Panther (made sure our oldest daughter was reminded of the history of the Black Panther Party before she saw it).

Richard Matson is the vice president of theatrical distribution at The Orchard, the distribution company behind the Oscar-nominated films Cartel Land and Life, Animated. The Orchard’s commitment to transparency stands in stark contrast to an industry-wide inclination to obscure distribution numbers, and they demonstrated that commitment by making the revenue streams for Cartel Land publicly available. Recently The Orchard made entertainment headlines again by spending $5 million to purchase Louis C.K.’s latest film, I Love You, Daddy, at the Toronto International Film Festival. Prior to his current role with The Orchard, Richard worked for Gathr, a theater on demand company, and his own distribution company, Matson Film where he worked with the likes of Participant Media, Kino Lorber, and The Orchard. Those experiences have shaped how he handles the distribution campaigns he currently oversees. I interviewed Richard a few weeks before TIFF, so I didn’t get to ask him about I Love You, Daddy, but since we initially met at South by Southwest, our discussion does include some festival strategies and a brief overview of The Work. That’s a documentary set in Folsom Prison which The Orchard acquired at SXSW. The film is scheduled to open in mid October. We also discuss the approach behind the releases of The Hero, the Sam Elliot picture they acquired at Sundance; The Music of Strangers, a documentary about Yo-Yo Ma’s efforts to bring together a global assembly of musicians, and Cartel Land. Other films distributed by The Orchard include Blue Jay and What We Do in the Shadows, and we briefly touch on the release of those films as well. Some of the other topics that we discuss include When it make sense to do a theater on demand screenings How The Orchard brings transparency into their collaborative partnerships What to think about when considering a film-festival strategy for a project How filmmakers can leverage The Orchard’s music library and expertise for their projects The key release windows for a film after it screens in theaters and how to manage them After the interview concludes, I share some of my takeaways from a few of The Orchard's films and how they influenced my thoughts on art and inspiration.      Sponsor for this Episode I am finishing a novel that involves mythology, music, and the city of New Orleans. Soon I will be sharing it. Would you like to be one of the first people in the world to read it?

I am here to help you Dads to be the parents that God intended for your to be. Yes folks, Things are changing. Regular listeners may have heard from intro that I am changing things up a little. I am refining the focus of the Daddy Life podcast. Feedback continues to prove that dads are hungry for more encouragement on the parenting front. I almost exclusively get feedback from the non-technical content so that is where I am going to focus attention. There are plenty of dads out there covering the things that entertain. I am here to equip and challenge you to rise above the level of mediocrity in your marriage and in your parenting. I will add tech tips in as subjects questions are raised. As in recent episode, I will only include a tech time in occasionally moving forward. So what am I talking about this week: This week I am going to provide you with an audio version of my review of Kirk Cameron’s new documentary titled Monumental: In Search of America’s National Treasure. Only you will get more in the audio because I can bring Kirk into from the trailers and let him tell you about the movie in his own words. Before we get into that I want to talk about Easter. If you are new to the show you will know that I am very big on relationships. In particular I am big on telling the truth to your kids concerning things like Santa Claus and the tooth fairy. And you guessed it, I am in favor of keeping it real and true concerning the Easter Bunny. We do Easter baskets and egg hunts, but we tell our kids the truth about where the candy eggs and chocolate bunny's come from. There is no magical bunny. Really! Seriously! Also mentioned in this episode are some points from David Platt’s book titled Radical: Taking Back Your Faith from the American Dream. Monumental is Highly recommended!

Dad's should teach their kids good wireless security practices and configure home wireless networks to be as secure as possible. This episode provides an explanation on the frequency of episode productions. I also provide an update on our son Caden. There are two main areas of concern: Your home wireless network configuration Your and your family member’s wireless devices Home Wireless Home wireless comes in many flavors. The most popular brands of home wireless devices, also called access points, or routers are Linksys (Owned by Cisco) Net Gear, D-Link, Apple, Belkin, and Motorola. Use good wireless encryption. WPA and WPA2 is the current, common encryption standard you should probably be using — though, of course, you should use something stronger as soon as it becomes available to you. Technology is advancing every day, on both sides of the encryption arms race, after all. Use a strong pre-shared key (password) IhagviW,NC Build a DMZ or add a separate router for guests and leave it open access Easy stuff to keep out the kiddie hackersDon’t broadcast your SSID. MAC Filtering Avoid WEP WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) Vulnerability The following manufactures have published instructions on how to protect your network: Belkin Netgear D-Link While Linksys routers do have an option to disable WPS...it does not actual disable the protocol.  I expect we will see firmware updates for more major maufatures very soon. When you or your family members go ut with wireless devices: Firewall your laptop Limit your Privacy activity Use VPNs Turn of wireless network cards OFF Leave feedback in the comments below or contact us via: Daddy Life on Twitter Voice Mail: (864) 372-9833 Subscribe to this podcast via iTunes or RSS:  

In this episode I have a very special guest. My wife Sherry and I introduce you to the four temperaments. Sherry and I also co-host the Home School Support Network (HSSN) podcast and blog. We have produced a HSSN episode on temperaments as well. Why temperaments?  Our understanding of temperaments has been most helpful in understanding what makes our family members tick. This is helpful in a marriage relationship, with understanding why grandma and grandpa do things a certain way, and most importantly what makes our children “tick”... so to speak. We have taught parents on the subject of temperaments for over five years. We have learned over the years from books, observations of parents we have mentored, and from various speakers throughout the country. Your temperament is God given and does not change. Each temperament has strengths, weaknesses, and one specific area of weakness that is more dominant than other weaknesses. There are four types with many “blends”- most people have a primary and secondary and keep in mind you may have the strengths of one and the weakness of another. What are the four temperaments we will cover in this podcast episode?  Choleric (lion): task oriented-extrovert Sanguine (otter): people oriented-extrovert Melancholy (beaver): task oriented-introvert Phlegmatic (golden retriever): people oriented- introvert Resources mentioned in this episode:   Spirit-Controlled Temperament by Tim LaHaye Personality Plus: How to Understand Others by Understanding Yourself by Florence Littauer The Treasure Tree: Helping Kids Understand Their Personality by Dr. John Trent and Gary Smalley Wired That Way: An Easy-to-Use Questionnaire for Helping People Discover Their God-Given Personality Type Leave feedback in the comments below or contact us via: Daddy Life on Twitter Voice Mail: (864) 372-9833 Subscribe to this podcast via iTunes or RSS:

Fathers Mandate number 8.  A father must build the trusting relationships on God’s Word, not on human wisdom. The Fathers Mandate Part 8 of 8 http://www.growingkids.org/leaders/gkgw-chapter-summaries/ Reference: Chapter 4 of Growing Kids God's Way by Gary and Anne Marie Ezzo Mr. Ezzo says that if you don’t get this then everything else in the other mandates does not matter. From Psalm 118:8 (TLB) “It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.” Who is God and what does He mean to you and your family? Please remember that much more is caught than taught. "Adapted from a recent online discussion. New dad wonders how to juggle parenting with football season Football season!: How much is my child going to hate me as he grows up with me watching three football games in a row on Sundays, and another on Monday nights? (I do chores during breaks, I swear, but I've never had a baby or child to care for during football season before.)" Source Tampabay.com This issue of building relationships with your children based on God’s word is not about choosing church over sports on Sunday.  It is about having the ways of God “on your hearts. Impressing them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the street, when you lie down and when you get up.” from Deuteronomy 6: 6-9 New International Version (NIV) Read God's word in the Bible for yourself. That is how you will be able to determine what God's wisdom is verses what other people around you say.

Here are some audio Bibles: (aff) The Word of Promise: Complete Audio BibleThe Complete Audio Holy Bible: King James Version Why read?

Proverbs 14:12 New King James Version (NKJV) 12 There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death. How to become a Christian: 1 John 1:9 New King James Version (NKJV) 9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Ephesians 2:8-9 New Living Translation (NLT) 8 God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. 9 Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it.

The Fathers Mandate Part 7 of 8 From Growing Kids God's Way by Gary and Anne Marie Ezzo Scroll down to the reference for Chapter 4 Feedback: Andy from Better Dad Podcast says thanks! Mandate number 7.  A father must routinely embrace his children. Sherry and I meet in a hugging community. We meet through Phi Theta Kappa International Honor Society. Some folks shake hands, but PTK members HUG! Mom's touch provides kids with a feeling of comfort and love. Dad's hugs Mr. Ezzo warns that if parents, especially dads, don't embrace their kids, they will eventually seek it from someone else. And they will find the affection they want and you will likely not like it. Don't let you daughter's preadolescence physical changes cause you to treat her any different. She is the same person on the inside. She needs to know her dad loves her as she goes through these changes. Hug your kids! Tech Time Which anti-virus should you use on your Android phone?

Not just encouraging words but a spirit of encouragement. Leave notes for your kids in their lunch boxes. Write a letter. Tell you wife to remind you about this one. Scapbooks! Consider having dad sign Christmas cards and birthday cards. Give your kids the opportunity to prove themselves trustworthy.

The Fathers Mandate Part 3 of 8 From Growing Kids God's Way Scroll down to the reference for Chapter 4 3.  A father must understand and respect his child’s private world. Public World - What people see and hear when you are out and about in a public setting. The things that can be seen by strangers on the street. Personal World - The world where your closest friends and family commonly see and hear things you that are never shown in public. Private World - This is on the inside. People have to be invited in to see what is in here. Open window phenomenon - Its when your child invites you into their private world. It can come when walking or at bedtime. Be careful because you never know when the open window will come. I have already covered the following: 1.  A father must cultivate a sense of family identity. Riley’s birthday trip 2.  A father must regularly demonstrate love to his wife. In the coming weeks I will share ideas to help dads fulfill the remaining mandates 4.  A father must give his children the freedom to fail. 5.  A father must be the encourager of the family. 6.  A father must guard his tongue and his tone and learn to measure his response against the excitement on their faces. 7.  A father must routinely embrace his children. 8.  A father must build the trusting relationship on God’s Word, not on human wisdom.

Browsers are less sophisticated and do not give indications of insecure content. Convenience comes at a price.

The Fathers Mandate Part 2 of 8 Based on Chapter 4 from Growing Kids God's Way  1.  A father must cultivate a sense of family identity. (Review) - Be proud of your family - as Mr Ezzo said be the cheer leader (We are the Osbornes and we...) Rise above the level of mediocrity! I added a couple of blog posts this week. One related to Cub Scout activities this past weekend. Our oldest two boys got to shoot BB Guns, Bow and Arrows, and Sling Shots. Make sure your activities are in line with your family goals and values. Do you have them written down? Are your goals Simple, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, TRUTH based? What education method makes your family unique: Public, private or home school? 2.  A father must regularly demonstrate love to his wife. Mr. Ezzo says, “If you really love your children then give them the gift of confidence and security. Show them how much you love their mom.” In Episode 4 I talked about the importance of Dating and Couch Time. In Episode 7 I talked about the need for dads to take your wife out of her role as a mom and put her back in her role as a wife. To do this you need to elarn your wife’s love language.

Part 1 of an 8 part series on how I implement the Fathers Mandate from chapter 4 of the Growing Kids God's Way (GKGW) parenting series by Gary and Anne Marie Ezzo. This episode provides a short click from GKGW session four where Mr. Ezzo introduces the first mandate. CNN Opinion article Why Men are in Trouble by William J Bennett "Today, 18-to- 34-year-old men spend more time playing video games a day than 12-to- 17-year-old boys." via Shawn Wood Courageous Movie opened Friday September 30th. This awesome movie is a great challenge for dayd, Courageous came in number one in the box office for new releases last weekend. Parenting and Relationships The Father’s Mandate - How I cultivate a sense of family identity. Special family activities Gingerbread train Other cooking activities like 4 year old biscuits Let them help you with tasks around the house even if it slows you down Create memories with special activities and trips (NC apple picking, family camping, fishing, geocaching) Be the spiritual leader by praying and leading devotionals with the family - As kids get older let them lead portions of the devotional time Take your child shopping or on errands Be proud of your family - as Mr Ezzo said be the cheer leader (We are the Osbornes and we...) Rise above the level of mediocrity! Holidays (we work very hard to tell our kids the truth. We do not lie about Santa, the tooth fairy, or the Easter bunny.) Read about how Halloween is different in our family. Tech Time Facebook Share “feature” My friend, we will call him John, shares a photo on his wall. He shared it via the “share” button from his friend Sue who shared it from her “Wall Photos” album. I am only friends with John and I am not friends with Sue on Facebook. BUT, now that my friend John has shared a photo from Sue, I can not click on that photo and then cycle through all of the Wall photos that Sue has ever shared....and get this...I can even comment on those photos. Sue does not know me and I do not know Sue but here I am leaving comments on Sue’s wall. The reverse is true. Based on the default settings in Facebook...Once you share a photo it can be shared by any one of your friends and their friends can then share it and so on and so forth. And all of the friends of all of the people who have shared the photo now have access to view and write comments on ALL of the photos in the album that contains the one photo that your friend shared.
