What a Hell of a Way to Dad

Booking Overview

A conversational ensemble show focused on parenting, adulthood in the 40s, and film and television, with occasional author interviews alongside host-led episodes. Credible pitches would include published authors and accessible experts on parenting, midlife, or screen culture; its informal independent format suggests a relatively approachable booking path, though it does not appear to require highly prominent guests.
