No Role Modelz

Send a text On this episode of the They Call Me Daddy Podcast , Torrean, Mack, and Mondo kick things off with laughs about fall vibes, fantasy football heartbreaks, and the annual St. Paul Jazz Fest.

From family legacies to grandma’s rummage sale adventures, the fellas share how small traditions and community ties build something lasting. But the heart of the conversation dives into a deeper question: who should come first in a family—the kids or the partner?

Mondo shares how his father’s example shaped his decision to always put his daughter first, even if it cost him relationships. Mack opens up about the balancing act of marriage, parenting, and the struggles of feeling underappreciated while trying to keep “happy wife, happy life” intact.

Torrean reflects on subtle but powerful lessons from his own daughter and why prioritizing his partner ultimately strengthens the family foundation.
