Yes, friends, you read that right. Zachary Levi (AHEM...THE Zac Levi) is here to talk about his new book Radical Love. Did our entire office have a fangirl moment?? YES WE DID. Zac and I had a great conversation about mental health, being an enneagram 7 (we bonded), and so much more! Y'all, go out and grab yourself a copy of his new book! 

(And FYI, Zac uses a bit of stronger language, so let’s put a PG13 label on this one? May be best to listen without #miniBFFs in earshot.)

Episode 395: Zachary Levi + Radical Love

Let's start here: what's a podcast network? Well, the That Sounds Fun Network is an amusement park of podcasts created to entertain, impact, help and bless you and the people you love. So if you love TSF the show, we think and hope you'll love all the shows on the TSF Network.
We are deeply proud of the shows on the TSF Network, and we are very excited about the ones that will be joining in 2022!
Christmas has come early this year, my friends! We are just thrilled to welcome Deck The Hallmark to our amusement park. The guys who run this show are HILARIOUS and kind and so likeable and honestly, who doesn't need a little Hallmark talk in their daily lives? Hear us today discuss how this whole thing started, why joining a network sounded fun to them, and some HOT TAKES on Christmas in July movies. (Also, Brendan Penny... we love you.)
Go subscribe today! A new show launches every DAY (welcome to Christmas in July!) so there are episodes ready for you RIGHT NOW!

That Sounds Fun Network: Welcome Deck The Hallmark!

I'm so happy to talk to my new friend, Alexa PenaVega, on the podcast about moving her family to Hawaii, her marriage with husband, Carlos PenaVega, their new book What If Love Is the Point? (that releases TOMORROW!), hearing God, the power of rest, going on tour, the list goes on! Ya'll! Alexa is so open and honest. This conversation is one of my favorites.
(And FYI we jump into some pretty deep conversation about some topics, like sex, marriage, and disordered eating. These topics may be tender to you, so I wanted you to know before you listened so you could care for yourself well. And, for our #miniBFFs, this show may be a bit much for their little ears.)

My friend (and all around best.counselor.ever), David Thomas, is back on the pod today with so much wisdom on raising the young men in our lives. This is such an important conversation for not just parents, but for humans in general.
(Because of the nature of David's work at Daystar Counseling, we talk about some topics, like suicide, that may be painful for you, and too grown-up for my miniBFFs. Please listen with those thoughts in mind.)
