Dad's Rules with Kevin Belzer

Kevin Belzerpodcasters.spotify.com
This podcast is based around my rules for being a kickass adult. Over the past 50 years, I have used myself as a guinea pig, of sorts, testing these rules out. We will discuss the ones that worked, and should be carved into stone, as well as the ones I threw to the side. I am all about making us all better humans, even if it is at my own expense. Plan to laugh, cry, and cringe as I go over Dad's Rules, relationships, and interview people, that are truly living a kickass life in every way. So, get off my lawn and live your kickass life!!!
