Reservoir Dad

With special guest:
- Clint Greagen
Our guest today provides us with an entertaining peek into what is still an unusual career in our society. Clint Greagen is a stay-at-home Dad with the skills of an award-winning blogger who tells us about his life in suburban Melbourne with four boy-children and a loving working wife.
There is nothing un-masculine about Clint’s struggles as he is assigned to buy breast pads for his wife and to do the cooking / washing / cleaning for the family. He has to juggle these responsibilities and apply some logic in the middle of the chaos and craziness.
Reservoir Dad is in turn hilarious, bracingly honest and sometimes heartbreaking. Clint manages to stir a range of emotions while at the same time he keeps it real. Every one of us who has the experience of a family upbringing will identify with what Clint describes so enthusiastically and come to a conclusion about what really matters in life.
Listening to Clint makes it very easy to understand why he has legions of fans. Women love him, men admire him.
This is a real treat for our listeners today.
