hour1
Meet Steve Young—a New York-based comedy writer, performer, songwriter, musician, and filmmaker whose career has been as diverse as it is impressive. Steve’s written for comedy legends like David Letterman, Matt Groening, and Lorne Michaels, snagging multiple Emmy and Writers Guild nominations along the way. But that’s just the beginning. He’s the guy who uncovered the bizarre and delightful world of corporate musicals, documented in his critically-acclaimed film "Bathtubs Over Broadway." With Amblin Entertainment picking up the film rights to his book and a brand-new alt-country album, "Broken Heart Insurance", recorded in Nashville, Steve’s creative journey is filled with unexpected twists. He loves to chat about his hilarious adventures, hidden musical gems, and what it’s like to go from writing animation to starring in award-winning films!

hour 2
As a father of six, Adam Feuerstein has learnt a lot about parenting over the years but one thing he always makes sure he does is give his children the freedom to make their own decisions on who they are and what they do. With four daughters and two sons, aged between 14 and 25, one of his priorities as a parent has been to teach them to embrace their own identity.

The 47-year-old from Colorado says this approach is very different from his own upbringing. He adds: “We don't censor our kids. We really give them the space to just be who they are.

“What that allows is for them to have real conversations with us and they know they can come to us with anything that’s going on in their life. We might not like what they do all the time and we might sometimes cringe when they tell us things but our goal is to allow them to be who they are.”

Adam is the founder of The Forge, a social impact organization dedicated to empowering men and helping them embrace their masculine identity. But he says that while his work has aimed at men, he is constantly learning from his four daughters, who often talk to him about their own experiences.

Adam can talk about why he feels so passionately about giving his children a different kind of upbringing from his own. And why he feels authenticity and acceptance are vital parts of parenting.
