Summary
Good parents set good examples for their children … and it begins with character. We’ll look at that in our Thought of the Day. And in our interview segment: what do Larry Winget and Chris Widener mean by the term, “real men?” It may or may not be what you think. That and more on today’s show.

- Why a real man sets an example through what he says and does, but mainly through who he is.
- A saying my Dad had on one of his office walls: “To have a body does not make one a man. To have a child does not make one a parent.”
