August 02, 2018 14:28 - 1 hour - 64.1 MBEpisode 50 is the first half of my conversation with fellow podcaster, fellow Dad, fellow music fanatic: Brian Brinkman. Brian makes up one half of the team that brings you the Beyond the Pond podcast. If you haven't heard checked out that podcast yet and you love music, you should make sure to make your way over to them.

Father's Day 2018
June 21, 2018 13:21 - 22 minutes - 21.4 MBEpisode 49... so close to 50 and it's a mini-episode. Father's Day is always a perfect opportunity for me to sit and get a little personal. Father's Day and Thanksgiving always bring that out of me on the podcast and it should allow those of you with shorter timeframes to listen to an episode a great chance to get an actual full episode in a single sitting! This is my 3rd Annual Father's Day episode. And I'm getting closer to the mark of 30 years of Father's Days without my Dad around to ce...
Chris Lizotte: His Music History & Is There Good Christian Music?
May 22, 2018 14:38 - 1 hour - 76.9 MBEpisode 48 is the long-awaited second half of my conversation with Chris Lizotte. I'll repeat what I started Episode 47 with as my description of Chris, that he is known as and for a great many things by a great many people. He is a successful Christian music artist -- Wait! Where are you going?! I say the words "Christian music" and you want to leave this episode behind already? Well, you'll be missing out. This is another great episode filled with a lot of laughter, deep conversation and ...
Chris Lizotte: Humble Son, Dad & Rock n' Roller
May 04, 2018 14:37 - 1 hour - 56.2 MBEpisode 47 of the podcast is here. There aren't many episodes I'm not excited about releasing, let's be honest. And there are many that I am even more excited about just the conversation and recording with my guest. This episode (and the next) have all of that and more. Because, this man is one amazing man... one that I am proud to call my friend and feel not only honored to know and be able to spend time with, but I am incredibly blessed by it, too. Yes. I just used that word: blessed. Don'...
Ryan Michler Defied the Odds Without a Solid Manly Leader
March 19, 2018 16:00 - 1 hour - 62.7 MBEpisode 46 of the podcast is one I've been holding onto for a while now. Another great guest that I waited for the Osiris Pod Network to launch. So, here it finally is: a groundbreaking, inspiring and relentless conversation. My podcast is fairly different from Order of Man, which Ryan created a few years ago. But, this episode with him as a guest finds a pretty solid middle-ground between our two platforms. I'm not going to say that Ryan and I are complete opposites, because we aren't. Rya...
James Breakwell: Dad, Author and Exploding Unicorn
March 07, 2018 15:04 - 1 hour - 63 MBEpisode 45 of the podcast is one I’m excited to bring to all of you. I was thrilled to receive a favorable response quickly after I originally reached out to James Breakwell. When I stumbled onto his Twitter feed some months ago, I felt a kindred spirit connection right away. James is probably known to a lot of people by his Twitter handle and website name: Exploding Unicorn. He has been plugging away at bringing the reality and levity of being a parent to other parents via the internet for...
Tom Keeley Inspires Us To Live Boldly
February 20, 2018 16:14 - 54 minutes - 50.7 MBEpisode 44 of the podcast is the second half of my conversation with Tom Keeley. If I was a fancier type guy who maybe also lived in England, I would probably describe Tom as a rather lovely fellow. He really was a fantastic bloke (look at me being even more British-y!) and I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation. A lot of you may already know that Tom is the guitarist in the band Thursday. Now, I will be honest here. Thursday isn’t the type of music I would normally seek out these days. Ther...
Tom Keeley: From Rockstar To Dad
February 14, 2018 14:47 - 1 hour - 74.4 MBEpisode 43 of the podcast is the first half of my conversation with Tom Keeley. If I was a fancier type guy who maybe also lived in England, I would probably describe Tom as a rather lovely fellow. He really was a fantastic bloke (look at me being even more British-y!) and I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation. A lot of you may already know that Tom is the guitarist in the band Thursday. Tom was led to me by previous guest, RJ, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Although my immediate thought ...
Why Do I Do This Podcast?
February 05, 2018 06:06 - 14 minutes - 14.3 MBEpisode 42 of the podcast is another of my smaller episodes that doesn’t involve a guest. This episode was born from my desire to further explain the whole point of this podcast. Why does it exist? Why do I keep putting all of this time and energy into it? There is more than this text in the actual podcast episode that accompanies this. But, here is the gist of it for you: We’ve become fantastic documenters, haven’t we? Armed with our smartphones. Within the last decade, we’ve become well-e...
Jonathan Hart: Raised on the Grateful Dead & Phish
January 29, 2018 21:31 - 46 minutes - 43.1 MBEpisode 41 of the podcast is the second half of my conversation with fellow podcaster Jonathan Hart. I don’t normally dedicate episodes, but I have to dedicate this one to my other favorite 41 that is out there right now: Red Sox pitcher Chris Sale. Don’t get in a huff about that dedication; we don’t talk about sports or the Red Sox in this episode at all. This is more of a discussion on the journey of life for Jonathan that parallels our previous episode. At times, it even intertwines with...
Jonathan Hart Went From Surprised Single Dad To Much More
January 15, 2018 16:33 - 1 hour - 60.4 MBThis is Episode 40 of the podcast. My wife is a huge U2 fan, so she would enjoy me saying that as: “This is 40”. However, this episode does not feature Bono as its guest, or any other musician from Ireland. Don’t be dismayed; Jonathan Hart has a pretty darn interesting story to tell. It starts with what happened before Jonathan was even born. We do a deep dive into his paternal roots and talk about his lineage. That lineage is steeped in a very proud service to our country by his Father and...
Dr. Anthony Balduzzi & The Fit Father Project
November 28, 2017 16:38 - 1 hour - 66.8 MBEpisode 39 of the podcast is extremely special because it features my first ever guest that is not actually a Dad. Have you picked yourself up off the floor now? Close your lower jaw… I know this is mind-blowing news. But, you’ll come to see why I made this decision once you’ve listened to this episode. The reason I’ve bent one of the founding basis’ of this podcast is because Dr. Anthony Balduzzi brings a lot to the podcast and to you: the listener. Not only is the story of his very brief...
Terry Ogburn Lives Beyond Loss
November 20, 2017 07:35 - 57 minutes - 53.9 MBIn this, the 38th episode of the podcast, I found myself talking with Terry Ogburn. In a few of my experiences at conferences, for marketing or podcasting, I’ve run into Jessica Rhodes a few times now. Jessica is the CEO & Founder of Interview Connections. I honestly didn’t know if anything would ever come from any of our conversations at these conferences until one day I received an email with a suggested guest. The email, from one of Jessica’s staff, basically said that Terry would be an ...
RJ Bee Talks Phish & Podcasts
October 18, 2017 13:53 - 1 hour - 67.7 MBThis is episode 37 of the podcast, and number 2 of 2 with fellow podcaster and music lover, RJ Bee. Although this episode is heavily steeped in our discussion about music and the band Phish, this may be the most that one of my “Fork in the Road” episodes focuses on fatherhood. Usually, these secondary episodes with guests are complete offshoots onto other topics. However, you’ll still find some fatherly gems between RJ and myself in this one. RJ and I share some strong similarities within o...
RJ Bee is a Dad
September 19, 2017 08:39 - 1 hour - 83.4 MBThis is episode 36 of the podcast, 1 of 2 with fellow podcaster RJ Bee. RJ is quite an intelligent man. I don’t just say that because we share a very common interest in music, but because he has been working for years in the world of politics and communications. When RJ and I first connected, we both asked each other if we thought we would be good guests on each other’s podcasts or not. It was almost like a lightning round on a game show as we took turns interrogating one another. I guess y...
Sam Jennings & His Time With Prince
August 29, 2017 14:06 - 55 minutes - 51.5 MBEpisode 035, for those keeping count. This is the 2nd of 2 episodes with web designer and artist Sam Jennings. Sam is my second guest that has a large connection to a man I adore: Prince. A lot of this episode is us talking about the period of 9 years that Sam worked very closely with and for Prince. He gives a deeper view into the man that at times was so private. We talk in depth about the positive influence that Prince had on our lives, from the time we were both teenagers. After working...
Episode 034: Sam Jennings
July 24, 2017 16:45 - 48 minutes - 45.9 MBThis is episode 34 of the podcast, 1 of 2 with web designer and artist Sam Jennings. Sam is my second guest that has a large connection to a man I adore: Prince. Even with this being our episode to talk about fatherhood, we do touch on some of the personal and business aspects of Sam’s near decade of working with Prince. It was quite interesting to hear how much importance Prince put on family during the time Sam was involved with him. Sam joins the esteemed group of guests that do not come...
Episode 033: Brad Rothschild the Filmmaker
June 27, 2017 07:10 - 57 minutes - 53.6 MBThe 2nd half of my conversation with Brad Rothschild, we pick up right where the previous episode left off: having a very laid-back chat which eventually leads into what Brad does for a living. He’s a documentary filmmaker with films you may have even seen on Netflix or iTunes (Tree Man and Kinderblock 66: Return to Buchenwald). Brad also makes up half of the team that does The Amen Corner podcast. His partner, Steven A. Cook, you may recall was a recent guest on my podcast as well. But, do...
Episode 032: Father’s Day 2017
June 21, 2017 05:58 - 16 minutes - 16.5 MBFather’s Day is a good opportunity for a quick little episode. There are a few holidays I will do this with. Something that should please some of you who may get frustrated that my episodes don’t fit into your shorter work commute. This is my 2nd Annual episode to celebrate Father’s Day. It’s now my 27th Father’s Day without my Dad; the 9th such holiday that I, myself, am being heralded as a Dad. I still do not take that title or job lightly. For those of you who missed 2016’s Father’s Day...
Episode 031: Brad Rothschild
June 06, 2017 15:49 - 1 hour - 71.6 MBThe 1st of 2 episodes with Brad Rothschild, this conversation is now becoming a line that is stretching out from its epicenter: my previous guest, Bruce Mendelsohn. So, again, a ton of thanks to Bruce for starting this rolling ball. Brad makes up half of the team that does The Amen Corner podcast. His partner, Steven A. Cook, you may recall was a recent guest on my podcast as well. But, don’t let yourself think for a second that means the 4 episodes of them are anything alike. They really a...
Episode 030: Matt Thorne
May 10, 2017 07:43 - 1 hour - 64.3 MBThis is episode 2 of 2 with author and critic Matt Thorne. Like I said on the last episode, if you’ve been here for a while, you noticed that his episodes were released in reverse order. Again: don’t call the authorities. I did that on purpose. The previous episode came out first because it was a little closer to the 1 year anniversary of Prince’s death. That episode was focused very heavily on Prince and the book that Matt wrote some years ago chronicling his life through his music. So, tha...
Episode 029: Matt Thorne & I Love Prince
April 25, 2017 14:28 - 1 hour - 63.2 MBThis is the 1st of 2 episodes with author and critic Matt Thorne. For those of you who are regulars, you’ll catch that his episodes are being released in reverse order. That’s not an error. I held off on releasing this episode so as to not completely coincide with the 1 year anniversary of Prince’s death. Matt & I agreed that may not be in the best taste. But, it still made more sense to me to have this one out before his Dad episode (which will follow, shortly). I had been waiting a long t...
Episode 028: Steven A Cook Knows Politics
April 10, 2017 14:11 - 49 minutes - 46.5 MBThis is the 2nd episode with Steven A Cook. He is the Eni Enrico Mattei senior fellow for Middle East and Africa studies at the Council on Foreign Relations. Before speaking with Steven, I not only had no clue what all that meant, but it made me laugh a little at the idea of my having a political conversation with him. Kind of like those videos you sometimes see of a professional athlete playing against a little kid. Oh, isn’t that cute? Look how the pro is not even really trying and lettin...
Episode 027: Steven A Cook
March 14, 2017 18:03 - 54 minutes - 50.5 MBMy conversation with Steven A. Cook was made possible by last episode’s guest, Bruce Mendelsohn. So, many thanks to Bruce for that. I did my research on Steven immediately when Bruce mentioned him. My first thought, frankly, was that he was going to be out of my league if or when we touched on things other than just about being Dads. I saw that he is the Eni Enrico Mattei senior fellow for Middle East and Africa studies at the Council on Foreign Relations and I not only had no clue what all ...
Episode 026: Bruce Mendelsohn & His Boston Marathon Bombing Experience
February 21, 2017 15:33 - 53 minutes - 49.7 MBThis episode with Bruce Mendelsohn sincerely has changed my life. Bruce tells his story of the day’s events back in 2013 of the Boston Marathon Bombings. He was a bystander, just there to meet his brother who ran in the marathon at the finish line and hang out with him afterward. The day’s events, of course, changed from what everyone expected and Bruce acted before he really reacted. Bruce was very heavily involved in one of those stories of that day. One of the stories that involved people...
Episode 025: Joe Bruzzese Loves Sports & Music
February 06, 2017 15:25 - 1 hour - 64.6 MBThis is the 2nd episode with Joe Bruzzese, a SAHD who is a Northern California transplant from Boston. Joe and I connected over Twitter some time back and I couldn’t help but become friends with him, due to his extreme loves for Boston sports teams and music. Those common interests of ours made it easy for us to get along well from the get-go. There’s a lot of bouncing around in this episode, since it’s edited from our over 3 hour recording that made up his 1st episode and this Fork in the ...
Episode 024: Joe Bruzzese
January 23, 2017 15:14 - 58 minutes - 54.3 MBThis is the 1st of 2 episodes with Joe Bruzzese, a SAHD who is a Northern California transplant from Boston. Joe and I connected over Twitter some time back and I couldn’t help but become friends with him, due to his extreme loves for Boston sports teams and music. Those common interests of ours made it easy for us to get along well from the get-go. I spent between 1 and 2 years being a working from home SAHD with my oldest child. Because of that, I’ve always had so much more respect for si...
Episode 023: FITR w/ Kevin Browning
December 15, 2016 15:10 - 1 hour - 69.3 MBThis is the 2nd episode with Kevin Browning, aka KB, the manager of the band Umphrey’s McGee. In our 1st episode, we really dug deep into some parenting philosophies and uncovered the background on Kevin’s upbringing to piece together some of what has helped build him into the Dad he is today. Kevin successfully balances managing Umphrey’s McGee while holding strong to the roots of his wife and their three children. Originally, I thought this episode might end up similar to the route the Fo...
Episode 022: Kevin Browning
November 29, 2016 14:53 - 1 hour - 64 MBThis is the 1st of 2 episodes with Kevin Browning, aka KB, the manager of the band Umphrey’s McGee. Kevin has always really been someone I’ve wanted to be able to have a lengthy conversation with, as I’m always so impressed with the way he has been able to balance a very busy work life with being a husband and father of three children. I know I often think about how it really is fascinating how many of us match up with someone who, at the very least, share an interest in one another. The bo...
Episode 021: Giving Thanks
November 23, 2016 08:22 - 17 minutes - 16.9 MBEpisode 021: Giving Thanks Here’s a little brief episode I created this week. With Thanksgiving coming on Thursday and my birthday happening the following day, it felt like it was time to finally sit down and get some things recorded that have been weighing on my heart for a while now. 2016 has been a unique year, to say the least. I ended up in the hospital E.R. on two different occasions this year, for differing reasons. All of this led to some needed and serious time for introspection on ...
Episode 020: FITR w/ Ross Newhan
November 08, 2016 08:49 - 1 hour - 65.5 MBIn this second episode with Ross Newhan, we focus almost entirely on what he spent his life and career covering as a renowned writer: baseball. Again, for those of you who didn’t catch this from his 1st epsiode, Ross covered the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Angels starting in the early 60’s until he retired in the early 2000’s as a national baseball columnist for the LA Times. It wasn’t much longer before he was honored with prestigious awards that brought him into the Baseball Hall of Fame. ...
Episode 019: Ross Newhan
October 24, 2016 14:15 - 59 minutes - 55.7 MBRoss Newhan The 1st of 2 episodes with Ross Newhan, we get to take a very introspective look at the life of one of Major League Baseball’s best beat writers. For those of you who are not familiar with Ross and his work, here’s a little of what you’ll be able to hear during these episodes. Ross started writing for Long Beach newspapers before the Angels had even become a team. He eventually started covering the Angels and the Dodgers, before moving on to the Los Angeles Time and eventually be...
Episode 018: FITR w/ Ryan Stasik
October 11, 2016 14:34 - 1 hour - 58.7 MBIn this second episode with Ryan Stasik (bassist for the band Umphrey’s McGee), we tap into a lot of things left untapped from our 1st episode. We start off with his time in school at Notre Dame, his hard work at school, if nothing else, to put together a band. We spent a good deal of time talking about sports: both actual real life sports and the very addicting life of fantasy sports. He lays out what the guys in the band (and some of the crew) are into, regarding sports and teams. We brea...
Episode 017: Ryan Stasik
September 27, 2016 14:13 - 1 hour - 62.2 MBAt long last, the 1st episode with Ryan Stasik has arrived. Ryan is the bassist for the band Umphrey’s McGee, a band I have been listening to since some time in 2001. I don’t think my friendship with Ryan depends on the fact that I was able to meet him and other band members back during those earlier years. I think he is still very much that same easy-going and very approachable guy, regardless of how much bigger the band has gotten since then. I think that will come through to you loud and ...
Episode 016: FITR w/ Bob Ruff
September 20, 2016 14:21 - 1 hour - 71.2 MBIn this second episode with Bob Ruff, we delve into a little bit of why either of us does this: podcasting. If you want to remind yourself what exactly one of the “Fork in the Road” episodes mean, click here. Bob and I discuss how we both took a very keen interest in the 1st season of the Serial podcast and what that meant to us. For those of you who already listen to Bob’s Truth & Justice podcast, you know the direct result of listening to Serial for Bob. We dug into his methodology, what ...
Episode 015: Bob Ruff
September 14, 2016 14:12 - 56 minutes - 52.5 MBThis episode with Bob was very exciting for me to record. If you don’t already know the name Bob Ruff, I give a sizable introduction to him at the beginning of this episode. Nutshell: Bob has two podcasts of his own, one that is much more popular and familiar, known as “Truth & Justice”, that originally stemmed off of the widely-known and award-winning 1st season of the Serial podcast. Bob has since dedicated his professional life to advocating for wrongly convicted individuals that are impr...
Episode 014: FITR w/ Austin Eich
August 30, 2016 15:52 - 1 hour - 56 MBIn this episode, Austin and I discuss the most obvious common subject between us. Which, you’ll hear right off the bat, was not actually the sport of Jai Alai. No, it’s the Boston Red Sox. We talk about how both of us came to be fans of this Boston team, even though neither of us live in Boston, let alone Massachusetts…let alone, New England, for that matter. This isn’t just about the Red Sox and our extreme fanaticism of the team that makes Fenway Park their home, we chat about how sports ...
Episode 013: Austin Eich
August 09, 2016 18:14 - 1 hour - 58.4 MBThis episode with Austin is unique for a number of reasons. First: Austin and I know each other through Twitter. Second: Austin is my first SAHD as a guest. Third: This was my first foray into recording remotely. All of that worked out to make a pretty fun episode, that brings out a very interesting story of Austin’s life and family’s background. As someone who spent close to the first 18 months of my daughter’s young life at home with her, I have the utmost respect for a stay-at-home dad (I...
Episode 012: FITR w/ Jason Green
August 02, 2016 14:29 - 58 minutes - 54.8 MBIn this episode, which I joked should be subtitled: “The Episode Where Jason Tries to Talk Me Into Being a Lakers Fan”, you can guess what some of the episode is about. We talk a lot of NBA, including the time I was actually a huge basketball fan back in the 80’s. We touch a bit on why I’ve always been a Celtics fan and slightly scratch the surface on why I’ve rooted for non-home teams almost my entire life. Since Jason is a huge Rams (football) fan, we talk about his elation that the team ...
Episode 011: Joe
July 19, 2016 14:23 - 1 hour - 57.4 MBJoe has been a good friend of my family for close to 2 years now. He is the first single Dad to be a guest on the show, and does a good job of bringing that approach to the conversation. Joe has very strong family ideals and that can be attributed to his strong relationship with his own Dad. We talk about how important his fathering role is to him and how easy it is to recognize the importance it will have on his son not only now, but further along in his life, as well. As deep as this episo...
Episode 010: FITR w/ Jose Rosado
June 27, 2016 15:14 - 46 minutes - 43.8 MBIf the normal episode with Jose and I was considered late at night, this second section was definitely into the wee hours. For our Fork in the Road , we just kept right on talking in that small hotel room in Santa Monica. We talked a little about podcasts, photography and writing. Our road got even more forked, when we started discussing what celebrities we thought would be perfect best friends for us, if we ever met them. This reminded me of the Disney movie ‘The Kid’, where Bruce Willis sa...
Episode 009: Jason Green
June 21, 2016 16:30 - 1 hour - 73.7 MBJason is another longtime friend of mine that brings something very different and interesting to the podcast. Of course, you’ll have to listen to the episode to find out what that is. Actually, his tales of interest are on both sides of “fatherhood” for him: with his own Dad(s) as well as his being a Daddy to his two kids. Jason definitely dug deep in this episode and it was refreshing to have this conversation with him. Jason and I delved into a lot of issues and talked about the difficulty...
Episode 008: Father’s Day 2016
June 19, 2016 15:30 - 22 minutes - 20.3 MBThis is a quick little episode to celebrate Father’s Day; my 26th Father’s Day without my Dad around for me to call, text or to give a cheesy or homemade gift to. The 8th such holiday that I am being heralded as a Dad. That’s pretty cool for someone who never imagined even being able to find the right person to marry, much less have kids. My Dad’s last Father’s Day was during my Senior year in High School. The doctors had very recently diagnosed his brain cancer. I was 17 and that was the l...
Episode 007: Jose Rosado
June 13, 2016 14:44 - 1 hour - 59.1 MBThis was a long and winding road to this podcast recording happening. Oh, did I just put that Beatles song in your head? You’re welcome. Jose (which you will see all of his links at the bottom of this post) and I have known each other for quite a few years now, and knew of one another for at least a year before that. Jose started dating one of my best friends, Jessica, way back then and he and I finally started talking some time after that. Basically, it’s just one of those “I met you on the...
Episode 006: FITR w/ Ryan Pierron
June 07, 2016 13:42 - 46 minutes - 43.3 MBSo this is the Fork In The Road episode that Ryan was trying to force us to segue into more than once from our normal episode. Not that we didn’t enjoy talking about being Dads, but we had not even talked about the (at the time) brand new trailer release for Star Wars: Rogue One at all before this episode, because we wanted to do it on air. So, we were both kinda bursting at the seams to get into our Fork episode. I won’t spoil too much of the episode (even though we do have some spoilers i...
Episode 005: Ryan Pierron
May 23, 2016 08:00 - 44 minutes - 41.2 MBSo, I finally got to sit down and record with Ryan. Ryan is the Dad I was supposed to be recording with the night that I recorded Episode 001 (there’s a little more on that inside that episode, so feel free to go back and give it a listen, if you haven’t already). I missed out on our chance to get a Pre-Daddy recording with him, so we waited and did this episode when he was already a couple months in on being an official Dad to his newborn little girl. Ryan’s history of his own childhood was...
Episode 004: FITR w/ Michael Colleary
May 23, 2016 07:55 - 36 minutes - 33.8 MBWelcome to my first Fork In The Road episode. This came just at the tail end of my previous episode with screenwriter/producer Michael Colleary. Michael and I share an affinity for cinema (that’s even more fancy than saying “films”, right? Well, we are that fancy about it!), so I figured we would have a second episode just geeking out about the movies we love. You’ll hear right off the bat, I think he was not very excited when I led him into it by saying Top 5 lists…but when I clarified that...
Episode 003: Michael Colleary
May 23, 2016 07:48 - 1 hour - 62.7 MBFor this episode, the entire family went up to the Los Angeles area, to a place we’ve been many times before: my wife’s cousin’s house. We all love spending time up there and I’m usually more busy hovering over the kids than getting to spend as much time as I’d like just sitting and talking with the grown-ups of that family. Michael and Shannon are my kind of people. They love telling stories (of which they have some doozies!), they love talking about movies and the industry (they are both s...
Episode 002: Kenn
May 23, 2016 06:58 - 1 hour - 70.2 MBIf you listened to Episode 001, you know that my first episode was supposed to be part one of a two-part episode with a friend who was on the brink of becoming a Dad. Well this is the other two-parter that I arranged, with a different friend of mine, Kenn. Kenn and I go way back, and I’ve known his wife since she was in Jr. High! We recorded this episode just before their very first child was born, and we discuss the seriously incredible journey that led to that point for them. To say they s...
