Why Your Kids Need Outdoor Activities in an Inside World | S7 E35

Wishing that your kids spent less time glued to screens? There's an easy antidote - and it's as close as your backyard. 

Step into a lively, all-guys conversation with Steve Alessi, his son Chris Alessi, and son-in-law Christopher Muiña as they swap stories about fatherhood, raising sons, and the pure chaos (and joy) that comes from letting kids get dirty, daring, and hands-on with nature. 

You’ll discover why getting your family outside—gardening, washing cars, building sandboxes, or just chasing birds—can reduce stress, boost development, and create stories that stick for generations.

So if you’re looking for inspiration (and a gentle nudge) to embrace adventure and outdoor memories with your children, this is your cue to get out, get messy, and make those priceless family moments happen.
