Jon Acuff: I Was "Youth Group" Cool
Bags of gold are very heavy.
This week we have our resident inspirer-in-chief of Dadville, Jon Acuff, swinging by for a talk about his latest book, How Teens Win, which he wrote with both of hid daughters. Between Dave, Jon, and Jon Acuff that makes 10 books (several which are NYT best sellers.) Dig in as Acuff talks about this view on regrets, the shift in parenting approach when your kid gets to high school, and why you need to let your kids learn cheap lessons.

My pick this week is for 1. Music nerds. 2. Beatles fans. 3. Music fans who like a deep dive.
So I found this account on Instagram called @beatlesexplained and it’s my new favorite thing - this English guy named Luke Brooks talks about his favorite chord progressions, melodies, guitar parts, etc from Beatles songs and it’s so great.
Even if you don’t love The Beatles or music, it’s worth checking out in my humble unbiased completely even opinion.
Last Wednesday I woke up feeling sick. Then I took an Ibuprofen and ended up having a great day (I posted about it if you're curious).
Then, after a good night's sleep, I woke up on Thursday morning and felt waaaay sicker. So I really tried to rest all day Thursday (even had to reschedule an interview) and then after a great night's sleep Thursday night I woke up on Friday and felt waay better! Not 100% but good enough to go to the gym and workout!
Yay!
So, after some much needed exercise, I felt waaaay sicker!
Yay.
So ever since Friday I have really been trying to do as little as possible and just recover. As I'm writing this I am watching the Super Bowl all by myself and still feeling pretty bad.
Really hoping after a good night's sleep tonight I'll wake up tomorrow morning feeling waayyy.....?
In all my at-home-doing-nothing time, I did manage to hook up the Gryphon Connect parental control router. Literally just hooked it all up today and so far so good. I can just pull out my phone and turn off wifi to any given device. (This sounds like a paid ad but, unfortunately, it is not.)
