Kirk Cameron

Well, I think I started as a child actor in Hollywood.

And so I was thinking, what am I going to do with my life?

And when I discovered that, hey, I've got a career that's sort of launched.

Now I'm trying to build a life for myself.

But once you become a dad and now I'm a grandfather, I'm beginning to think legacy.

And I'm beginning to think of how can I help my children succeed and win?

And one of the ways that I can do that is by playing the long game and investing in the moral, spiritual,

health of my children and my grandchildren.

So when I think of the impact that Mr. Rogers had on generations of families, I think, who's our guy today?

Who's going to do that?

And with so many shows, good shows and good companies.

and I think of Disney, and I think of Nickelodeon, and I think of others, and they sort of, like, bend with the political winds or the moral winds, I think, who's going to stay true to that North Star set of values that leads to kids' blessing and protection?

And I'm like...

If not me, then who?

And I've got an opportunity.

So I'm going to start writing children's books and making children's television shows and partnering with people who are committed to the cause.

And that's really what inspired the books with Brave Books, the company, and the TV show called Adventures with Iggy and Mr. Kirk.

What has the response been to both of those, Brave Books and Iggy?

Well, it depends on who you ask.

So the drag queens don't like the books much.
