In this week’s episode, I sat down with David Morgenstern, the founder of Gaddies, a lifestyle brand that seeks to celebrate and foster community for gay dads. In this conversation, we discuss David’s early life in a remarkably progressive enclave in Ohio, his journey from a corporate leader to burgeoning entrepreneur, and the challenges of finding relevant parenting advice as a gay dad.

Gaddies and Gays With Kids are teaming up to celebrate LGBTQ+ families. The campaign runs through Father's Day June 15, 2025.

On today’s episode, I sat down with Nick Little. Nick is a public school teacher in Oswego, New York, the town where I grew up. In our conversation we go through the exciting alternative solutions Nick uses in his classes to engage students, the dire state of the current educational system, and how he is working to get even more deeply involved in his community by running for city council.

On today’s episode, Joel Fariss and Chris Everett discuss their work at the Holon Institute and the new series of events they’ve been hosting called “The Poly Opportunity”. We all know there are lots of complicated, interconnected issues that make modern life difficult. It seems impossible to untangle it all. Chris and Joel seek to begin the untangling process by bringing together experts from all disciplines, from dancers and poets to scientists and entrepreneurs.Their hope is that we may find answers from unexpected sources.
