Join Frank, Jeff and myself (Kay) as we discuss what we feel it takes to be a Rugged American Father and Husband in Today's society. How blessed we feel to be in the position we are in our marriages, as fathers... and how lost we would be without our wives! my favorite podcast so far and I think it will be for a long time! see you next time! Between us we have 9 kids (8 girls and 1 boy) all ages 7 and under, so that's where our perspective and mind set comes from.

Episode 1 was history... episode 2 is a bit of science and a whole lot of conspiracy theory mumbo jumbo, or at least discussion around it. a few notes! Pythagoras is documented as the first person to formally speculate the earth was round in and around the 6th Century BC... It is theorized that some of the first ancient civilizations not only mapped our solar system, but in doing so believed the world to be round as well, though there is no hard documentation for proof, just thought it was an interesting aside. 

We recount some of our favorite and not so fond things about Teddy Roosevelt and why ultimately we feel he embodies many of the traits that make up a Man of Grit and a Rugged American.  Hosted by: Kaymichael Co-Host: Frank NOTES: main reference and topic of discussion The River of Doubt: Theodore Roosevelt's Darkest Journey by Candice Millard  We highly recommend reading or listening to this book! Expedition Members: (because we didnt make notes and forgot names) Father Zahm (friend of Roosevelt, did not descend River of doubt) George Cherrie (naturalist) Kermit Roosevelt (Son of Teddy) Candido Rondon (co expedition captain) Theordore Roosevelt (co expedition captain)
