This episode of The Dad Verb Podcast features Cory Allen. Cory is a former police officer, a U.S. Secret Service agent, and a current Supervisory Special Agent. He joins us to talk about his new children's book, Dada Takes a Trip, on sale February 24, 2026.
📖 About the Book
Cory wrote Dada Takes a Trip to process his own feelings about being away from his toddler on work trips. The book helps kids learn to handle big emotions when a parent has to leave home for a few days. The characters are based on Cory's real-life pets!
Cory wants to help men talk about tough emotions. Leaving your family for even a couple of days is hard. He thinks dads should say that out loud. As an older parent who cares for aging parents, legacy matters to him. Parents won't be around forever, but their love can last. A book like this gives his children a reminder of that love.
