Roy Wood Jr. on Fatherhood, Vulnerability, and Joy | Introducing Squeezed

NOV 4, 202615 MIN

Description

When his son Henry was born in 2016, comedian and author Roy Wood Jr. asked himself: what kind of father do I want to be? That question led him to reflect on the many lessons he inherited about fatherhood, from his own dad to the other father figures who shaped him. Now, Roy’s taking those lessons and choosing what he’s passing down to Henry while also learning to model vulnerability and curiosity along the way. Host Yvette Nicole Brown is back to explore stories from everyday caregivers across the country in Season 3 of Squeezed. Listen and subscribe to Squeezed wherever you get your podcasts.
