Big Boys Do Cry: A Final Word on Fatherhood
“I guess big boys do cry.” Jeff’s daughter Lolli said this after he collapsed onto her bed in a full, pillow-drenching sob while his father was fighting colon cancer.In this episode, Jeff closes the series by tracing the fatherhood he inherited and the one he’s tried to build in its place. He starts with a bitter divorce at 13 and a dad who fought for custody to break his own cycle of abandonment. He offers a long-overdue apology to the mother he shunned, and he credits Schuyler, whom he met at seventeen, with making the healing possible. He also lays out what the girls taught him in return. He let Phoebe decide whether to come home from a miserable school trip to Joshua Tree. He found two meditation apps on the iPad of a daughter who forbids him from saying the word. His closing case is for a different kind of masculinity: courage as vulnerability, discipline as discipleship, and pride as mudita, the Buddhist joy in someone else’s joy.

Don’t Trust the Experts? Media, Big Pharma, and Real Skepticism
Somewhere between “trust no one” and “trust the experts” is a harder and more honest position. In this episode, Jeff looks at the two sides of a growing cultural standoff. On one side are the compulsive contrarians, who distrust every institution. On the other are the contrarians to the contrarians, who defend those institutions by reflex. He argues that both have confused skepticism with ideology. Why questioning Big Pharma’s ad budget is fair, and calling medicine a scam is not What Vioxx, OxyContin, insulin, and HIV treatment tell us about the same industry How engagement algorithms reward the most extreme voice in the room A case for “discrimination” in its original sense: the ability to see distinctions This episode is for anyone tired of being asked to choose a tribe before looking at the evidence.

Is Telepathy Real? Dr. Rupert Sheldrake on the Science of Connection
Have you ever thought of someone right before they called? Biologist Dr. Rupert Sheldrake says that's not a coincidence. In this episode, Jeff sits down with Rupert Sheldrake, the Cambridge-trained biologist and author of Dogs That Know When Their Owners Are Coming Home, to look at the evidence for telepathy. Rupert walks through decades of filmed experiments with dogs, nursing mothers, and phone calls, and explains why he thinks the effect depends on emotional bonds, not distance. Recorded on a pilgrimage in the English countryside, the conversation widens into the limits of materialism, the trust crisis facing our institutions, and why Rupert, a practicing Anglican, finds more open inquiry in church than in a lab. Why telepathy shows up most between parents and children, twins, partners, and close friends The experiments with dogs who wait at the door when their owners head home Rupert's telephone tests, where people guessed their caller far more often than chance Why he compares telepathy to quantum entanglement, but stops short of calling it that Whether science has become as dogmatic as the religion it once challenged This episode is for anyone who has felt an unexplained connection to someone they love, or who suspects science doesn't yet have the full picture of the mind.

My Father’s Feet: Jazz, Hospice & Saying Goodbye to My Dad
For twenty years, Jeff’s father wore a pinstriped Brooks Brothers suit every day, riding the Metro-North from Connecticut to an office on 45th and First. Somewhere in that daily friction, his trousers wore the hair from his legs and left his feet improbably smooth. As a boy, Jeff would rub them on the couch after dinner, often reluctantly. It was the simplest pleasure his father knew. Decades later, those same feet are swollen with edema at the end of a hospice bed in Miami. In this episode, Jeff turns from fatherhood to being a son. He spends a week at his dad’s bedside with his brother Eric, and after days of trying to fix everything, Jeff finally stops. He puts on Dizzy Gillespie and Ella Fitzgerald and takes his father’s feet in his hands one last time. In that small act of tending, time folds in on itself: a boy on the couch, a man who walked so many city blocks, a father briefly free of his failing body. There’s nothing left to say and nothing left to fix, only the care a son can give with his hands. This is the twentieth episode of Diaries of a Dance Dad, an audio memoir series in Jeff’s own words. It spans the full arc of parenthood: the inhale of birth and early chaos, the grind of no sleep and travel with kids, the gut-punches of failure, and the slow exhale of letting go.

Can AI Be Your Nutritionist? GLP-1s and Weight Health with Ashley Koff
Every bad thing you’ve heard about GLP-1s may be true, and so is everything you’ve been told about calories in, calories out. Ashley Koff says both miss the real problem. Jeff sits down with Ashley Koff, RD, a registered dietitian and author of Your Best Shot, to talk about GLP-1s, weight health, and whether AI can ever be as curious as a good practitioner. Jeff shares what happened when he started low-dose tirzepatide and his appetite disappeared overnight. Why "weight loss" can include bone, muscle, hair and testosterone, and what Ashley measures instead The first two days after a weekly shot: why she moves fiber later in the week and leans on soups and smoothies Why feeling no hunger at all on a GLP-1 can be a sign the dose is wrong Why calories are "only potential energy" until digestion turns them into something usable How Jeff used AI to keep five specialists on the same page for his father, and why Ashley built her own AI nutritionist This episode is for anyone who started a GLP-1 and can barely eat, or who's getting textbook nutrition answers that don't fit their body.

Late for Pickup: Watching Lolli Dance Alone to Debussy (Dispatch 19)
Running late to pick Lolli up from dance rehearsal, Jeff arrives to find the studio empty except for his daughter, dancing alone to Debussy's Rêverie. Instead of going in, he stays outside the plate-glass window and watches. In this episode, Jeff traces those few unguarded minutes: a kid moving like water, and a father reaching for Kabbalah, Alan Watts, and the Japanese art of kintsugi to explain why it felt like watching something broken get put back together. Then she catches his eye, and the dance changes. Flow becomes performance, and Jeff is left with a question every parent eventually meets: what does it cost our kids to dance for someone they want to make proud? This is the 19th episode of Diaries of a Dance Dad, an audio memoir series in Jeff's own words. It spans the full arc of parenthood: the inhale of birth and early chaos, the grind of no sleep and travel with kids, the gut-punches of failure, and the slow exhale of letting go.

Why You Keep Dating the Same Person with Sabrina Zohar
At 25, Sabrina Zohar sent a man she barely knew 173 unanswered text messages from a friend's bathroom floor. Years later, she realized she was never in love with him. She was in love with being chosen. In this episode, Jeff sits down with Sabrina Zohar, relationship coach, host of The Sabrina Zohar Show, and author of the new book Why Am I Like This?, to trace how childhood wiring shows up in who we date, how we fight, and why healthy love can feel boring at first.

Christmess: The Morning I Learned My Mother Was Leaving (Dispatch 18)
