Are We Better Dads Now? 52 Episodes Later

After 52 episodes of World’s Greatest Dads, we’re asking the big question: are we actually better fathers now?

In this milestone episode, we reflect on a full year of conversations about modern fatherhood, from emotional availability and masculinity to screen time battles, college anxiety, career disappointments, and what it really means to “show up.”

We talk about:

• Why this is the most involved generation of dads in history
• Presence over perfection in parenting
• The difference between happiness and meaning
• Raising kids in the digital age
• Screen time diplomacy vs discipline
• The long days, short years reality
• Preparing for middle school, adolescence, and the empty nest
• Career setbacks and keeping perspective as a dad
• What we want our kids to say about us someday

Fatherhood isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being present. If you’re a modern dad navigating work, family, masculinity, and identity, this episode is for you.
