About this episode
It depends on when, and where you grew up, but you can probably name a few of your favorite sit-com dads - from Mike Brady and his "bunch", to Homer Simpson, to Andre Johnson from Blackish.
There is no single, universal way to be a father. There are as many ways to be a dad as there are dads.
This year, for Father's Day, we asked a variety of different dads to tell us their stories about what fatherhood means to them.
And we have a story that puts a new twist on the old saying "like father, like son".
In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment to help you make sense of what's going on in your community.
