New York Times bestselling author Chasten Buttigieg returns to the podcast, this time to discuss his charming, delightfully illustrated new picture book, PAPA’S COMING HOME. Chasten shares the sweet inspiration behind the story—a joyful, everyday celebration of family that reflects his own with his husband, Pete, and their two children. He talks about writing the book mid-flight, the hidden Easter eggs in the illustrations, and the emotional power of homecomings and hugs. The conversation weaves through parenting moments, the challenges and beauty of bedtime routines, and the power of unconditional love. Chasten also reflects on the impact of his YA memoir and the meaningful conversations it sparked across the country.
