Description

Hussein’s father once told him that, “Opportunities are like sand. If you’re not careful, you’ll lose some of it.” From fleeing Saddam Hussein’s regime and living in a tent at the Saudi Arabian borders to navigating life in America, his story will not just leave you speechless but will be a warm reminder of why, no matter what challenge you face, we should all be grateful every day. There is no “mission impossible”. Tune in now to Better Call Daddy: The Safe Space for Controversy.

Reena loves a story, and she‘s fascinated by the people behind them. In fact, 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. 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. There is wisdom from four generations and I’m addressing what happens from childhood to adulthood!
