How often do we talk at #DadChat about the importance of teaching our kids to do the right thing, to give back to the world, to do Tikkun Olam (“Repair the World”)? A LOT! Do you believe in Good Karma? Do you believe that it comes back to you? This Thursday, March 28 at 6:00 – 7:00 p.m. PT/9:00 -10:00 p.m. ET, we have co-host Annie Fox to help guide us through steps to help our kids be better people. Her new book is Teaching Kids to be Good People and we will be giving away THREE copies during #DadChat. And, as always at #DadChat, you will have to earn the giveaway!

Powder Skiing in Spring, Part One

It was the second day of Spring, March 21 2013, and the night before it had snowed. I had the extreme joy of skiing 6-8 inches of fresh powder, first tracks, for several hours. Here’s just a taste of it. Canyons Ski Resort is an awesome place to ski and their season truly lasts until mid-April. The advantage of coming up now is it’s less crowded but the conditions are actually as good now as any other time this season. The whoops you here are ME having the time of my life!

Happy Birthday Mom

Happy Birthday Mom! My mother would have been 95 this past March 4th, 2013. She and my dad have both been gone several years now. This video – taken by their crypts – is my off-the-cuff reflections about them and thoughts on how to treat YOUR loved ones while they’re still with you. I had no script. This is real life and real emotions. Have your tissues handy!

The Canis Lupus Redux – An Awesome Ski Run at Canyons Resort in Utah

The Canis Lupus is a natural half-pipe at Canyons Resort in Utah. Skiing it is a kick beyond belief. The Canis Lupus is a mile-long, curving, amazing chute that is simply awesome and scary as can be. I love it. This particular time, I held my poles in one hand, my iPhone gloveless in the other and did this particular video all in one take. You can clearly hear my excitement along with hearing my son’s singing my radio show theme song. I hope you enjoy it half as much as I did skiing it!
