For men who want to be better today — and for the next 50 years. I’m Michael Turner. I’m a Navy veteran, husband, father, and successful professional. I’ve also made mistakes and have been a dick. On Be a Man, Not a Dick, I chat with guys who talk about when they got it wrong — at work, in marriage, as fathers, in relationships, and in life. What happened? Why did they do it? What did they learn? With honesty and a bit of humor, we want to help you be a better man today and every tomorrow. Be a Man, Not a Dick.Michael Turner

    Ed loves his family, including his in-laws. He also loves a well-organized vacation. So, before a big family trip to Italy, he drafted six “polite suggestions” delivered at a family meeting to ensure everyone had a wonderful time.

    Listen to find out how that worked out. Spoiler alert: it could have gone better.

    Ed shares more about planning boys' trips and balancing family events.

    We tackle family dynamics -- especially with in-laws, the importance of setting boundaries, and how you can be right and not be a dick.
