Advertise on podcast: Attempting Fatherhood

Josh Thomas, the highest-ranking Black operator at Amazon, founded dad-focused apparel company WASHED Dads. We talk about raising kids, balancing work, and why letting his daughter ride her bike to Target probably wasn't the best move.

Screenwriter, author, owner of a funeral home, Chris Meyer talks the future of kids in sports, mentorship, and why he loves wearing a scarf.

This week Attempting Fatherhood is Ro Parrish. He's an actor, DJ and host with Charles Barkley and Shaq. He covers the NBA on TBS/TNT. He's a single dad with his daughter being long distance in TX while he’s in GA. We talk about how he leads and loves from a distance. And what his dad taught him that he's been actively implementing into his own fathering and what he's decided to leave out!

We are back and better than ever. Season 4 is going to bring even MORE stories and MORE encouragement to MORE dads who, like yourself, are just trying to do the best job they can.

It's been a fantastic season with eight wise and hilarious dads, time to reflect back on what I'm learning and hopefully, encourage you as well.

Season 3 is coming to a close so we look back on the BEST #Dadvice from the season. It's short. It's sweet. It's delicious.
