Reena loves a story, and she‘s fascinated by the people behind them. She loves to bring stories to life. Her appetite for storytelling has taken her from the Jerry Springer Show to the legal drama of the courtroom. From influential players to reality stars, nothing is censored here. Reena interviews people whose stories haven‘t been told, at least not through her unique lens, and then gets daddy‘s advice afterward like a good daughter does. Whether you have daddy issues or a father who‘s inspired your path, you will be able to tap into my daddy‘s wisdom, wit, and humor at the end of every episode. My daddy has been a guiding light my whole life and there‘s not much he doesn‘t know, as an entrepreneur for forty-plus years, a husband, a loyal son, and my number one supporter. He has learned lots of life lessons along the way and is here to share them with you. It‘s time to reminisce and reflect on the conversations you‘d like to have with your daddy and learn from mine. Come share in some good old-fashioned family bonding and help us up our wisdom rating. There is wisdom from four generations and I’m addressing what happens from childhood to adulthood!

260. Father’s Day Will Never Be The Same. Andrea Cargill
Friday Sep 09, 2022
Friday Sep 09, 2022
All publicity is good publicity, it’s how you respond to it!
How did Andrea Cargill get into the celebrity chef scene and start managing Chef Katsuji Tanabe a former guest on the Better Call Daddy Show? Andrea says it’s important to do the work we care about, and that might have something to do with her military roots! How can we do to get more involved in our communities? What has Andrea learned from working in the media? How can you navigate with tragedy happening in the background? We don’t go through things, we grow through things, even being a co-victim in a homocide! Better Call Daddy: The Safe Space For Controversy.
Shout out to Arsiak (episode 200) and Chef Katsuji (episode 211)
Andrea Cargill was born and raised in Puyallup, Washington, a suburb south of Seattle. Where she developed her love of professional sports, coffee and the finest fashion’s that Nordstrom had to offer. She spent her childhood before and after school with grandparents, Thomas and Evelyn. Both born in 1922 during the Great Depression. Who helped shape her determination to help others and approach life with a mentality of seeking to understand.
Andrea is an independent Talent Agent and Manager. That started in the most non conventional way. A prior career in Corporate America and once described as the “Connector”, helped catapult her into this exciting world. Fulfilling to say the least, though STEAM and assisting inner city children are her passion. She is on the Board of Directors for a STEAM Center in Marshall Fields, Chicago, Illinois. Started a STEAM initiative with Major League Soccer teams in various cities to raise money for children. Andrea loves volunteering her time feeding people with World Central Kitchen, spends Christmas morning with Cozy Connections in Seattle and is on the committee of Vote Early Day.
Andrea has a deep love for traveling, music, reading, working out and a curiosity for life. She’s described as an open book, with transparency extremely important in both her professional and personal lives. The best advice she once received was from her Papa Thomas: “Always do what you feel is best, even if it goes against everyone around you. We never grow in comfort zones.”
“The Highest Human Act is to Inspire.” - The Late, Great Nipsey Hussle

256. A More Humane Look At Abortion. Connie Polke
Friday Aug 26, 2022
Friday Aug 26, 2022
My daddy has a jaw-dropping perspective shift in this episode. Connie Polke and I met on the SNF (Skilled Nursing Facilities) Spotlight Series I was producing in Chicago and she was guesting. Our relationship blossomed from there. This is one of the final interviews I did in Chicago. She got to meet my dad, interview me, and I interviewed her.
Connie is an animal lover, a helper, and a caretaker of others. She has overcome abuse, abortion, and raising children as a single mom. She's worked in healthcare for her whole career as an employee and an entrepreneur and now she's going back to school. Growing up she asked herself how am I going to get out of this house? Today we are talking about confidence, believing in yourself, and legacy. Better Call Daddy: The Safe Space for Controversy.
