Last week, after months of "you shoulds" from friends and other web series professionals, I found a quiet corner in my favorite Greek Cafe and watched Season One of the award winning web series, Out With Dad, in its entirety. I then took a glance at my uneaten pita and watched Season Two of the web series up through its winter hiatus. I sat there thinking, remembering, and wanting more.

Out With Dad is a coming of self story of finding your peace and your place in this thing we call life. Rose is a teen age girl struggling with the realism of her sexuality, having the courage to come out to her dad, and sorting out her feelings for her best friend, Vanessa. Dad is doing the best he can with his suspicions of the inevitable conversation to come…and his best is pretty damn good.

I wanted to know what motivated this man to create this series, so I contacted Jason Leaver and we had a most pleasant conversation about just that…and many other discoveries like an irreverent project (my favorite kind) in the works called, The Gate.

Sit back, listen at your leisure, and see why I call Jason Leaver one of the biggest "tools" I know…
