Episode 1

Becoming “Dad”

To kick off the show, I take a short trip down memory lane to revisit moments starting from the day I found out that I was going to become a father, all the way to the birth of my daughter Amelia. 

Along with special guest Aravind Raghavan, I explore our personal attitudes towards fatherhood, reminisce the first moments of our children's birth, discuss the rationale behind our choice of names for our children, discuss the challenge of raising second generation Americans and the invaluable role of our spouses in parenting.
