Daughter-Father Dance

An indoctrinated Catholic father and his firstborn lesbian daughter sit down to discuss topics that often polarize the best of us, while offering living proof that seeing things differently doesn't have to result in division. Daughter-Father Dance is a nuanced, thought-provoking and sometimes hilarious conversation demonstrating how love wins despite our differences—and sometimes because of them. Rather than a third person account of my dad as you've witnessed in my Cathuddhist Buddhatholic blog (where most of his actions cause me to furrow my brow in utter bewilderment) you get to experience firsthand the man who is both my hero and the person who can push my buttons like no other. Join me and my dad for Daughter-Father Dance where we will demonstrate that division is optional—and maybe even prove that it’s actually an illusion.

    Episode 15—COVID Christmas Farewell

    Well, we couldn't outrun the virus that we've thus far kept at bay. Dad and I bid you farewell until later next year when we return for Season Two.  I'll be posting the long promised episodes we temporarily archived, and I'll be adding some "IN THE MEANTIME" fun until Dad and I return together in the future.  Come join me and dad over on the new podcast, Mind Chalk.

    Episode 14—The Final Countdown

    Today, Dad and I reflect on what it has meant to us to do this project together.  Dad is coming off of 15 days of illness—ending with pneumonia. He holds up pretty well in this week's episode, with the exception of a couple of times that leave me wondering if he still has a fever.  Come join me and dad over on the new podcast, Mind Chalk.

    Episode 13—Winding Down

    Dad and I, despite the fact that he is ill with a flu bug, begin to discuss how we feel about this experiment we are getting ready to sunset at the end of December—the first season anyway.  Come join me and dad over on the new podcast, Mind Chalk.

    Episode 12—The Unstoppable Force

    Today's episode begins to reveal something that hasn't yet fully taken form. I talk about it the best I can. Today is brief, and the news that comes with it swift. Sometimes, there is an unstoppable force requiring that we move out of the way—it's unstoppable for God's sake—and lean gently into the flow of its wake. Today is such a day.  Come join me and dad over on the new podcast, Mind Chalk. Apple Podcasts - MIND CHALK Spotify - MIND CHALK

    Episode 11—Thanksgiving—the Awkward Holiday

    Dad and I discuss how, for some families, Thanksgiving is fraught with anxiety and dread. We choose sides about wholeheartedly trusting historic sources vs. questioning them. And we discuss—in uncontrollable belly-laughter—Thanksgivings of old. Oh, and my dad uses the “f-word” in hilarious fashion. This conversation is like Thanksgiving itself; a corneacopia of different flavors that leave me satisfyingly full.  Come join me and dad over on the new podcast, Mind Chalk.

    Episode 10—Actions Speak Louder

    Dad and I discuss the power of action—and, guess what?! Besides a single (and very short) account of one of Dad's confessions to Fr. Miller, he doesn't bring religion up once. Alle—freakin—luia. Enjoy it while it lasts! Come join me and dad over on the new podcast, Mind Chalk. Apple Podcasts - MIND CHALK Spotify - MIND CHALK

    Episode 9— Be Not Afraid

    Dad and I disagree about what is at the root of all "evil."  I bet you can imagine what he believes is orchestrating all the bad in the world—but you may be surprised at what I assert to make my point about what I believe fuels it.  Come join me and dad over on the new podcast, Mind Chalk.

    Episode 8—Sweet Land of Liberty

    Dad and I discuss the ever polarized and politicized issue of immigration. We tackle, in our own way, how to balance being our "brother's keeper" with following the rules. It's tricky, but insights unfold and answers typically reveal themselves when we are willing to talk about the difficult issues.  Come join me and dad over on the new podcast, Mind Chalk.
