Chatting with Casey

I'm Where I Need to be Right Now.
Chatting with Casey
In Chatting with Casey 15, we wrap up my conversation with Errol Elumir, covering things like One Piece, Studio Ghibli, and how Korean dramas pack so much into a mere sixteen episodes of content!
info_outlineFathers get a pretty bad rap. You don't hear too many stories of "Deadbeat Moms", and the idea that some women aren't meant to be mothers is one we've only recently started accepting.
But in episode four we look at it all—that some men feel fatherhood's something you get "trapped" into and not a calling you learn to live up to. Or that you've got your bases covered as a parent if you give a child your money but not your time.
It's hard out here for a Dad, and we're gonna talk about it on this week's Chatting with Casey!
