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!

Episode 319: Super Bloat XXXXXL

February 4, 2026 • 21 mins

The Big Game is almost here, and I’m praying this bloating clears out in time so I can properly demolish Sunday’s menu. Meanwhile, I’ve stumbled onto a new TV show that has me convinced I’m basically part of the team. At home, my wife has decided Nemo needs a rebrand, I’ve finally joined Wordle, and been trying to figure out if a gyros sandwich can give you a charley horse.

Episode 318: He's a Superstar

January 28, 2026 • 20 mins

The deep freeze of 2026 came in like a wrecking ball and did I hear my tree pop? Da Bears lost and I’m heartbroken — not soul‑crushed, just emotionally limping into 2026. Caleb Williams is a damn superstar, but Packers fans keep invading my TikTok like it’s their personal victory parade. Between Stranger Things ending and the Bears season being over, this year has been so emotional. Meanwhile, my son is a natural at Madden, claims ...

Episode 317: Not Defying Gravity

January 21, 2026 • 19 mins

I told my wife the Earth might lose gravity this August and proved it by falling down… which she says makes me look dumb, but here we are. My knee still hurts which I am beginning to think is arthritis, there was a squall warning, and I discovered I am fascinated with the corncob buildings in Chicago. I played early‑morning video games with my son and felt young again, then immediately lost my parking spot as I panicked as I though...

December 31, 2025 • 19 mins

Where’s Bruce the Shark when you need him, as the cats decide it’s the perfect time to “play” with the fish. I’m recapping Christmas — the food, the family fun, the gifts — and confronting the shocking truth that I may have a full‑blown Christmas‑tree obsession.

Episode 305: Mouthy

October 22, 2025 • 21 mins

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 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?!?
