We rented a 30 ft RV and drove over 3,700 miles!  We traveled over plains, mountains, desert and hills.  We saw Mt. Rushmore, The Lincoln Museum, Santa Fe, NM (the Original Santa Fe Trail), The Old "Route 66" and even an Monastery in the mountains!<br /><br />On this show, first I talk with a listener who tells us his story of "Dad-genuity at 30,000 feet".  John Yellico contacted me about his story of changing a diaper while on a commercial flight.<br /><br />Next, while on our RV odyssey, we camped at the only RV campground along Route 66, in Illinois!  I set up equipment on a picnic table next to the RV and chatted with the owner of Double J Campground, Randy Greenman and his daughter, Abby.  He and his wife and their 2 daughters, decided to chuck it all (he was in banking) and buy an RV Campground to live the RV life 24/7!<br /><br />Finally, we journey into the mountains of New Mexico.  Up into the Gila National Forrest to land at the Our Lady of Guadalupe Monastery!  YUP....the long robes, the funny haircuts, Gregorian Chant....the works!  I talk with Brother Brendan about the works going on there.  They make money buy roasting and selling their own coffee, Abbey Roast Coffee and it is like no other I've ever tried!  We also talk about life at the Monastery.  It's not a fatherhood or dadly subject, as we always do on Radio DAD...but, it was part of our family trip and something to think about on your own family trip.  Try to get off the beaten path and visit at least one place that's not set up for tourism (although the monastery does accept visitors at certain times).<br /><br />ENJOY our Radio Dad Road Trip!]]></description><atom:link href="https://www.spreaker.com/show/5158473/episodes/feed" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/><language>en</language><category>Parenting</category><copyright>Copyright Mike Austin</copyright><image><url>https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/4c3af71e0692881b96d62f52a8c69ffb.jpg</url><title>Radio Dad with Mike Austin</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/radio-dad-with-mike-austin--5158473</link></image><lastBuildDate>Sat, 05 Mar 2022 20:59:54 +0000</lastBuildDate><itunes:author>Mike Austin</itunes:author><itunes:owner><itunes:name>Mike Austin</itunes:name><itunes:email>mike@radiodad.com</itunes:email></itunes:owner><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/4c3af71e0692881b96d62f52a8c69ffb.jpg"/><itunes:subtitle>We did it!

First, I talk with Greg Keer from Family Man Online, about being the leader your kids need, in the face of disaster.  We are in tumultuous times.  War, disease, the economy....bad vibes are everywhere!  Greg says that dads are "built" to protect and provide.  We need to put on our super hero cape and wrap our kids up in it.  What about the "24 hour news cycle", how much...IF ANY...should they be exposed to?  Greg also touches on an important part of being a leader and that is teaching your kids to be leaders and how to help others.<br /><br />Next, I chat with businessman, dad, writer and entrepreneur, Dan Steenerson, about being a dad with ideas.  Ideas are easy to come by, it's the implementation and fortitude of the dad behind those ideas, that makes the difference.  But, not every guy is cut out to be in business for himself.  We talk with Dan about the influx of "Wanna-preneurs".  These are dads who have LOTS of ideas, but just can't seem to get things off the ground.  We chat about why more people are starting businesses these days and what it takes...what are he qualities you need to look for within yourself.  Also, just what IS professional A.D.D.?  Plus, Dan says, if you can explain how to tie your shoes...in detail...you might have what it takes to stick to your plan.  If you DON'T have all it takes to own your own business, what can a dad do to fill in the gaps.]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/48963302</guid><pubDate>Sat, 05 Mar 2022 20:50:36 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/48963302/radio_dad_show_29_greg_keer_be_a_strong_leader_through_disaster_plus_dan_steenerson_dad_preneuers_wanna_preneuers.mp3" length="23460055" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:author>Mike Austin</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>Two different subjects in this episode.

We think nothing of going to the store in sweatpants or when was the last time you saw a guy remove his ball hat when sitting down to eat?  We may even see a family member dressed in shorts and flip flops at a funeral!  But, beyond how we dress, this casualness affects how we talk, how we carry ourselves, how we treat others and more!
