On Sunday, June 15, 2025, from 7 to 9 PM (Eastern), we’ll be talking about what it means to be a father.
During the first hour of SHAKE IT OFF WITH MERT & LUCAS, LIVE, Tom Davis and Jack Watts will discuss “An American Hero: One Man’s Legacy of Fatherhood and Faith,” a moving tribute to fatherhood and the lessons passed down through generations. The book tells the story of Davis’s dad, who overcame childhood hardship to become a decorated officer in World War II. His values of hard work, honesty, and perseverance paved the way for Davis’s own success, shaping his life and career. Watts, a historian and prolific author, brings insight into the role of faith and personal transformation in defining a legacy.
In the second hour, Mark Gogolewski joins the show to discuss his book, “How to Be OK (When You're Supposed to Be OK But You're Not)” -- a deeply personal and insightful exploration of men's mental health struggles, particularly those tied to addiction and unresolved emotional wounds. As an entrepreneur, investor, and filmmaker, Gogolewski shares hard-earned wisdom on navigating life’s challenges, overcoming setbacks, and finding a sense of peace when the road ahead feels uncertain. His documentary “Buried” gained widespread attention on Netflix, and he’s now working with Martin Scorsese on an adaptation, bringing yet another powerful story to life.
