“This isn’t fluffy advice. It’s real and useful and recognizes the vulnerability we all have (or should have) about being a parent. Insert this into your daily routine”

“Most of the shorter episodes are giving a pop-up message that the episodes are not playable or downloadable (even with automatic downloads setting on).
Setting this review to get attention to the problem- will delete once problem is solved.
Great podcast otherwise.”

“Great show that I love listening to first thing after dropping kids off at school in the morning. When it has been a great morning, Daily Dad helps you appreciate it, when it was a tough morning it put things in perspective and help you relax and be grateful for what you have. All while learning...”Read full review »

This supplanted a habit of reading mind numbing news headlines and stories. Sometimes I write in my journal after or just sit in silence and...”Read full review »

“Listening to Ryan is very uplifting and extremely useful. The truths he imparts on the Daily Dad often strike chords deep down inside us and on occasion, make us emotional (at least me!)
The Daily Dad is a must listen for any father in search of excellence.”

“The content is good, but around 50% of the short snippet is ads and intro:
- Each episode has a 30 second intro, with around 1min 20-30seconds on ads.
If an episode was 3 minutes. That is only 50% of your time on content.
For someone that pushes stoicism, you would expect the bare minimum of...”Read full review »
