The Daily Life of Frank

The Daily Life of Frank

How you doing? I’m Frank, a husband to Kate, dad to two kiddos, Lil and Leo, and petdad to two cats, Moose and Nemo, who like to give me passive-aggressive stares from the windowsill. The Daily Life of Frank is my weekly podcast where I share the chaos, comedy, and occasional existential crisis that comes with being a parent, a husband, and an average guy just trying to keep the house from spontaneously combusting. I cover it all in a way that is unfiltered, unapologetically real, and held together by the kind of love that makes the madness meaningful. Because when you’ve got two kids calling the shots, two cats silently judging, one very patient wife, and an unhealthy dose of awkward dad energy, the chaos isn’t just part of the deal, it’s the whole show. And honestly, I wouldn’t have it any other way. That’s what The Daily Life of Frank is all about. It’s messy, it’s honest, and if you leave thinking, “Wow, I can relate,” or “Okay… maybe my life isn’t that bad,” then I’ve done my job. New episode drops every Wednesday at 6am CST!

Welcome to The Daily Life of Frank: Halloween Special 8, The Pudge Purge, where candy dreams go to die and comedy rises from the crypt. In this episode, I dive into stories of Halloween past and present from childhood scares to adult scares. I confess my true identity as a scaredy catdad (yes, I get scared easily, and scream), debut a vampire stand-up segment that’s so savage it might get banned from daylight, and share Moose and N...

I started a new sugar-control med and—surprise!—I got every side effect, even the rare 1% ones. Brewers fans came for me on TikTok like I insulted their cheese curds. And speaking of mouthy behavior… Nemo’s been chirping nonstop, which might explain why Moose went full Wile E. Coyote trying to finish him off. It’s chaos, it’s relatable, it’s my life.

This week, I take you inside our corn maze misadventure where sweat, soreness, and a questionable Achilles tendon were just the beginning. I’m limping through life but still living it up as a proud showdad. We’re talking about my daughter's choir concert all with an unnecessary screaming mom, and I’ll talk about why I’m already hyped for my son’s turn. It’s family, fall, and full-on Frank.

Fall’s still ghosting us, my jeans have become a personal sauna, and that TikTok buy? It might’ve opened the floodgates. My daughter’s lemonade stand crushed it, but with the weather stuck in limbo, the sick bug’s still lurking. I break down the family campout, Nemo’s Oscar-worthy dramatics over a cat video, and yes, Go Cubs Go, or whatever you want to do.

This week, I acted on my impulses and bought something on TikTok. The fall weather is MIA, and I’m emotionally committed to hoodies while physically stuck in shorts. The family hit the mall over the weekend for exotic snacks and claw machines. I also am left wondering why sugar free candy has so much fiber?!?

Plus, my  headphones bounced off my stomach, I’ve got zero patience,  and yes I’m doing the wrap-up thing again. My son becam...

This Week on The Daily Life of Frank:

It’s a full-blown dad saga: heartfelt advice, unexpected choir auditions from a son who still hates ads. The cats are trying to become TikTok-famous NFL pickers, Nemo the cat is throwing shade, and Mom’s getting all the feline love. Stress is sky-high, sugar’s spiking, and helicopters are buzzing overhead chasing down backyard bandits.I

I’m back NEXT WEEK with a brand-new episode but until then, we’re rewinding to 2017.

That one time I went inside a haunted house… yes, LIVE from inside the terror.
You’ll hear my actual screams because I was genuinely, hilariously, absolutely terrified.

Tune in for the chaos, the fear, and a whole lot of haunted hilarity.

This week on The Daily Life of Frank, it all starts with bad lightning and wind and ends in a technician showdown 48 years in the making. The house flickers like a haunted house, the AC breaker taps out, and suddenly we’re living in a poltergeist sequel with a side of electrical roulette. Anxiety spikes. Power dips. Oh, and the kids are back in school. All this and more, this week on the podcast!

There’s a real possibility I’m shrinking my feet are dangling in more places than usual, and I’m starting to question gravity’s loyalty. Meanwhile, my son has officially become the Big Hairy Animal Whisperer (yes, it’s as wild as it sounds). Whoever invented the five-day grind of school and work clearly had zero chill and should not be celebrated. Oh, and I saw the new movie Weapons... all I can say is: holy crap. Buckle up this ep...

This week, the feistiness is dialed up and for good reason. From childhood celebrities saying their final goodbyes and realizing I’m getting old to a doctor’s office front staff that might need a permanent improvement plan, it’s been one of those weeks. I also dive into my latest AI obsession and how it may have accidentally landed me on a list. Buckle up this episode’s got sass, nostalgia, and a touch of digital paranoia.

The dawgs (who are cats), have mastered retail treasure hunting or started hoarding gummies like they’re prepping for a Cheech and Chong reunion. Nemo and I kick off every day with our breakfast summit. I also unpack why two tall beers are now a tactical error, how breathing feels like a gym workout thanks to the air quality, and a Home Run Derby finish that smelled like a setup. Oh—and yes, I cover the Coldplay concert, where Andy...

After nearly two decades of being married, nothing makes me jealous anymore except maybe the walk to the garden. Meanwhile, the bedroom renovation tornado led by my wife and daughter is turning their shared space into a live-action construction site. Loud bangs? Frequent. Peace and quiet? Extinct.

In this episode, I unpack how aging affects your political filter, relive my dramatic tumble outside an Office Depot, and dive into a top...

Summer is flying by and before the seasonal sadness sets in, we’re slamming the pedal to the floor and soaking up every spark. This episode’s a firecracker—packed with Fourth of July festivities, family cookouts, rogue neighborhood fireworks (which I love), and one magical show that mesmerized the kids and maybe the adults too. Plus, I dish on my unexpected stint as a juror (gavel not included), and much more!

This week on the pod: I break down the sugary truth about overindulging in candy (spoiler: cancel all of your plans for the day), question whether my cats are secretly training for parkour, and how we all ugly-cried through the emotional rollercoaster that the final season of Squid Game was. 

Plus, a cautionary tale about something my son saw on my Instagram that he definitely wasn’t supposed to, and a recap of my dad-and-me suite e...

This week, I take a stroll down memory lane—Chicago summers as a kid, where living near Madigan felt like political trip to the amusement park (minus the funnel cakes & bribery charges). I dive into my son’s very serious investigation into who’s hotter, recap his unexpected transformation into a school bus superhero, and yes, the cats have officially started acting like actual dogs… metaphorically (for now).

This week, I recap Father’s Day and  my son’s birthday bash, featuring a poolside moment that delivered love and heartbreak unravel in record time. I may have even glimpsed the human forms of Moose and Nemo (spoiler: they were both beefy and Italian). Speaking of Nemo, he's finally settling in—aside from the strategically placed "gifts" he’s leaving around the house.

I also recount my non-activity-related injury at Dave & Buster...
