And with the help of his wife Stacey, he is trying to get his millennial children, Judea and Jordan, out of the house so that they can build their own dreams.

Families who are lost in a sea of overwhelming disorganisation, clutter and messiness - and have no idea how to fix it - will get the virtual help they need in Hot Mess House.
The series spotlights organisation expert and coach Cassandra Aarssen doing what she does best - helping families tackle the chaos and challenges of home organisation.
In each episode, Cassandra takes a video tour of the client's home where she finds overflowing playrooms, stuffed kitchens and inundated basements.
After the home tours, she helps them identify an organisation style that works best for their unique situation and gives them the necessary resources and tools for a stress-free, decluttered life.
Throughout the season, Cassandra mentors families with all types of disorganised dilemmas, including a young couple living in a cramped 350-square-foot apartment and a family with closets bursting at the seams.
In one emotional episode, Cassandra's organisation tips help one woman find the engagement ring that she thought was lost.
While Cassandra helps each client tackle the physical process of organisation, she also will advise how they can manage the underlying emotional attachments that often lead to over-cluttering in the first place.
In the series premiere, "Sneak Peek: Hide the Clutter": Brandi and Tim have so much stuff, they don't know how to create order.
Cas helps each find their organising style and create space for new memories.
In the second episode of the weekly double bill, "Small Space, Big Mess": A bedroom in Rachel and Ben's apartment doubles as a closet and home office with barely any space to move.
Kendra and Brandon are raising young kids while working from home, so Cas guides each family through creating spaces that work for their lifestyle.
