Summary

January 14, 2026 - This episode is about parenthood. Craig talks about becoming a "later-in-life" dad at 55 and why it changed how he thinks about time, patience, and what really matters. George reflects on raising kids at a very young age, and while still figuring life out himself. Gordo looks at how perspective shifts when you step back and see the whole arc. They get into starting young versus starting late, fear versus readiness, discipline, phones, freedom, and the parts of parenting no one ever feels fully prepared for. There are no answers here, just three different paths through the same lifelong journey. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
