250: Comedian Charlie Demers on Modern-Day Fatherhood
Monday, 2 December, 2019
For this 250th episode of the podcast we're taking a look at the state of modern fatherhood. First we're talking to stand-up comedian, writer and political activist Charlie Demers. He's one of dozens of notable Canadians who, through interviews, have contributed to a great new book of essays called 40 Fathers: Men Talk About Parenting. The book was written by family counsellor and writer Tessa Lloyd, who joins us in the second part of this episode to talk about what compelled her to gather the points of view of dads at this particular time.
