Protocol Daddies
Protocol Daddies are folks who give tangible advice to men on how to improve themselves. If there’s a particular Protocol Daddy in your life that you’ve found helpful, I’d love to include them. Please respond to a newsletter with their info. And they don’t need to be men - I think of “Protocol Daddy” as a more spiritual than literal term. My criterion for inclusion is:
They give tangible advice, of any sort, that men find helpful
Their protocols are free or low cost
They pass my bullshit radar
