  • SFN Dad To Dad 412 - Mike Kinner of Colorado Springs. CO Founder of Air-O-Sport & Father of Three Including A Son With Microcephaly
    Jan 9 2026
    Our guest this week is Mike Kinner of Colorado Springs, CO who is the founder of Air-O-Sport and father of three including a son with microcephaly.

    Mike and his wife, Stephanie, have been married for 12 years and are the proud parents of three children: daughters; Elieyanah (1) and McKenzie (9) as well as son, Samuel (6) who has microcephaly, which is linked to several disorders, including; epilepsy, cerebral palsy, being deaf, visually impaired and non-verbal.

    Mike is the founder of Air-O-Sport, a unique fast-paced, non-contact team game where players pass and throw a lightweight ring through the air to score points by hitting targets or completing passes in a defined zone. It blends elements of basketball, ultimate frisbee, and handball, emphasizing agility, teamwork, and quick decision-making.

    We learn about the Kinner family, their love for Samuel and the energy they bring to life, all on this episode of the SFN Dad to Dad Podcast.

    Special Fathers Network –
    SFN is a dad to dad mentoring program for fathers raising children with special needs. Many of the 800+ SFN Mentor Fathers, who are raising kids with special needs, have said: “I wish there was something like this when we first received our child’s diagnosis. I felt so isolated. There was no one within my family, at work, at church or within my friend group who understood or could relate to what I was going through.”

    SFN Mentor Fathers share their experiences with younger dads closer to the beginning of their journey raising a child with the same or similar special needs. The SFN Mentor Fathers do NOT offer legal or medical advice, that is what lawyers and doctors do. They simply share their experiences and how they have made the most of challenging situations.

  • SFN Dad To Dad 411 - John O'Leary of St. Louis, MO, A Motivational Speaker, Best-Selling Author, Podcast Host & Father of Four - Part 2
    Jan 2 2026
    Our guest this week is John O’Leary of St. Louis MO who is a motivational speaker, bestselling author, host of the Live Inspired Podcast, the subject of the recently released major motion picture SOUL ON FIRE and perhaps most importantly, the father of four children.

    John and his wife, Beth, have married for 22 years and are the proud parents of four children ages 14 to 20.

    At age nine, John was badly burned in a horrific gasoline fire, leaving him with third-degree burns on more than 80% of his body. Given less than 1/2 of 1% chance of survival, he somehow beat the odds. Central to John’s story is the role Jack Buck, the iconic St. Louis Cardinals sportcaster, played in John’s life.

    After graduating from St. Louis University and a 15 year career in real estate, John became a motvational speaker and two-time best selling author of the books:

    · On Fire: The 7 Choices to Ignite a Radically Inspired Life
    · In Awe: Rediscover Your Childlike Wonder to Unleash Inspiration, Meaning, and Joy

    The theatrical release of the movie Soul On Fire took place in October 2025, which is an inspiring true story about John, who survives a devastating childhood burn accident and transforms unimaginable suffering into a life of gratitude, resilience, and purpose—showing how hope, faith, and human connection can triumph over tragedy. The movie is now streaming on: Prime Video, Apple TV, YouTube and elsewhere.

    This is Part 2 of the interview with John O’Leary, a story about faith, family and perseverance, on this episode of the SFN Dad to Dad Podcast.
