This episode I wanted to dive into my thoughts on being more than just a parent. Obviously I make sure my kids are a top priority but sometimes I struggle with finding goals that are for myself. I wanted to talk through these feelings as life has many uncertain possibilities and if possible, we shouldnt wait until the kids are grown and out the house before we find goals or hobbies for ourselves. Then later in the show I also talk about some recent movies, game news and more.

Its been a few weeks but I am back with another hopefully topic called growing in the shadows. Sometimes we have to do work behind the scenes to prepare for things to come. I discuss this from a conversation I had with my middle son recently who also literally grows up in the shadows of his older siblings. Then in the back half I discuss the new Assassins Creed game, the Xbox and Playstation drama and end the show with the anime highlights from this season.
