Summary
Right now, we have the opportunity to teach our children about justice not just through words, but through action. In this solo episode, Ryan opens up about taking his kids to a protest and how that moment became a defining lesson in courage, justice, and civic responsibility. He shares how he talked to them about activism, why it’s not enough to tell our kids what we believe, and how real change starts with the example we set.

| 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. |

| 1:26.4 | They give you the same products that the pros use as a |
| 1:28.8 | quarter of the cost. Their kit makes it easy. It takes just a few minutes to apply. And while you might be |
| 1:34.8 | spending $800 a year or so with a pest control company, with Pesty, you're spending just $35 |
| 1:40.1 | per treatment with a customized plan based on your location, bugs, and climate. |
| 1:46.7 | Then you don't have to worry what that sensation on your leg is. |
| 1:49.4 | You don't have to worry about your kids getting stung by a scorpion or your dog bringing fleas in the house. |
| 1:55.3 | Now is the time to protect your home or office from bugs with Pestey. |
