Summary
In today’s episode, Ryan shares a rare behind-the-scenes moment when his kids start to realize what he actually does, and then his son takes the mic to ask the questions. You’ll hear him interview Kenny Curtis, host of Nat Geo’s hit kids podcast Greeking Out, in a genuinely fun, curious, and unexpectedly thoughtful conversation, and later Ron Chernow, the historian behind Hamilton.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the weekend edition of the Daily Dad podcast, where on the weekends, we do a deeper dive |
| 0:08.4 | and how to get better at our most important job, being a parent. Sometimes in these episodes, |
| 0:13.9 | I talk to best-selling authors and elite performers and other guests, but lately I've also |
| 0:18.5 | been having conversations with my wife, Samantha, the co-parent of my two |
| 0:22.6 | boys. We do it over in the Daily Stoic studio here in Bastrop, Texas. She and I talk about things |
| 0:29.0 | that we're working on as parents, things that we're working on as people, and how we are supporting |
| 0:35.8 | each other, challenging each other, and like I said, trying to get better at what we do. |
| 0:41.6 | Guest or not, I hope you hear some ideas here that will help make you a better parent. |
| 0:47.2 | I was better for having the conversation. I hope you enjoy. |
| 0:54.1 | If you have a few special people on your list that you haven't gotten a gift for yet, |
| 0:58.5 | why don't you try giving them an aura frame? My wife Samantha and I have given quite a few |
| 1:03.1 | aura frames out over the years. Everyone's excited to get one. They're super high quality and |
| 1:08.2 | easy to use. With an aura frame, you can upload unlimited free photos and video. You just download the aura app and connect it to Wi-Fi. And it's super easy to update the frame with new picks straight from your phone. You can even preload photos when you give an aura frame as a gift. So as soon as it's plugged in, it starts showing pictures. You can't wrap togetherness, but you can frame it. |
| 1:28.5 | And for a limited time, you can save on the perfect gift by visitingoraFraFrames.com to get $35 |
| 1:33.6 | off or as a best-selling CarverMatt frames, which are named number one by wirecutter. |
| 1:39.1 | If you use promo code Daily Dad at checkout, that's A-U-R-A-Frames.com promo code Daily Dad. |
| 1:45.5 | And this deal is exclusive to listeners, and these frames sell out fast. |
| 1:48.9 | So order now to get it in time for the holidays. |
| 1:51.2 | Make sure you support the show by mentioning us at checkout, terms and conditions apply. |
| 2:02.1 | Hey, it's Ryan. |
