A short update and Fatherhood

from The Frug Life Hosted by Ricky Hirschi

A Short Update: Paternity Leave, Projects, and What’s Next Ricky shares why this month won’t have a scripted episode, which was an recent incident discused on Ricky Rambles: https://open.spotify.com/episode/307pXGCoG5Si4jwf70VfqI?si=1NBoa-paTl-BKWYprT5ZSQ As a warning, it isn't typical fun episode of the show. Ricky also reflects on balancing new parenthood with creative projects, and previews what’s coming next. Listeners also get updates on a future money-journey episode, a new book, and The Iced Frugal Hour with Jackie. The first half of paternity leave was productive, but taking on too many projects made it harder to focus. A future episode will take a closer look at listeners’ money journeys and material covered in the host’s book. The host is also working on another book, with a draft potentially coming soon. The Iced Frugal Hour with Jackie recently covered “five to nines,” or side hustles. A listener survey may be coming, and the host still plans to take a previous survey winner out for lunch. Listeners can suggest topics for The Frug Life or The Iced Frugal Hour.
