Send us a textThank you, Chad Murphy, for making this week's episode possible!A bullied kid named Blue walked into a dojo and found a lifetime blueprint for leadership at home and at work. That mentor didn't just teach kicks—he taught trust, focus, and a community model that turns students into teachers. In this conversation, we go deep on how those early lessons shape the way we parent, listen, and show up for the people we lead.Blue Stiley is a professional keynote speaker, podcast host, and author who has spent decades uncovering and cultivating potential in himself and others. He discovered his passion for mentoring and entrepreneurship at just 13 while teaching martial arts, and over the past 30 years, he has carried that gift forward to inspire leaders, teams, and communities.We talk about “currency,” the motivations that really move someone, and how a single, well-aimed sentence from a trusted mentor can redirect a teenager more effectively than a hundred lectures. Blue shares a raw look at learning from two fathers: the sensei who modeled presence and the biological dad who modeled what to avoid. That “two-teacher lens” fuels his philosophy as a model, actor, strength coach to Olympians, and now keynote speaker: earn trust, make genuine connections, and build a community where people feel heard, seen, and valued.You'll hear practical mindset tools too. Leave problems at the door to train your focus. Put the phone down because a kid's request is a 10-minute window, not an hour. Let the egg break—experiments teach faster than warnings. Teach self-defense literacy without pressure by emphasizing hips-first power and clean fundamentals. And don't miss the baseball cards hustle: a cafeteria side deal turned into licensed tables at card shows, powered by a mom who drove the miles and believed. That story paid for college and cemented a simple definition of success—pickups after school, family dinners, and presence that compounds.If you're a parent, coach, or leader, this one will sharpen your approach. Listen, learn someone's currency, and build a community around them. If it resonates, tap follow, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review—what lesson are you taking into your home this week?Support the showPlease don't forget to leave us a review wherever you consume your podcasts!

Life moves fast. One minute you're in the front seat of your child's life… and before you know it, you're on the sidelines watching them take the wheel. Between work, bills, pressure, and pace, it's easy to drift instead of lead. Ferris Bueller said it best: “Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” That's especially true when it comes to family. Wherever you are on the journey—diapers or diplomas—the guys unpack three things every dad must never back down from if he wants to lead well and leave a lasting legacy. As you look toward 2026, make these three commitments part of who you are as a father.

That's essentially what Cavan Cameron and his father, Russell Cameron, of Horizon Motorsport have built.The project began as Cavan's high school engineering project but has since evolved into one of the coolest and most ambitious builds we've seen in a while.

The Father Hoods are finally back with a fresh episode and zero filler! The Dads kick things off talking about their new recording setups before DJ EFN jumps straight into dad-life chaos: the whole family getting sick again, missing the icy school pickup, and surviving a full-blown meltdown in the car. From there, he also opens up about feeling like he spends less time with his daughter, sparking real talk about guilt, balance, and doing the best you can when life doesn't slow down. The crew also digs into routines, structure, and why switching things up is key to building new memories as the kids grow. Manny reflects on how the house feels different now that his oldest daughter is away at college, while KGB talks about his son in 7th grade and missing earlier chapters of fatherhood. Things take a deeper turn when DJ EFN shares a powerful piece, “A Man's Journey with His Father,” hitting the trio right in the chest and bringing real emotion into the room.  The episode closes with reflections on how fast life changes, how technology might help Dads cope, and Manny delivering a sad story about aging, church, and adult diapers.

Judson enjoys a hookup that goes past the typical twenty minutes and returns to his favorite gay event at his local bathhouse. Brian spends an evening with the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City and tries to entice Judson to check out the show. The Hookup of the Week is a twofer from a Daddy who enjoys public sex. The two are then joined by rising Broadway star Jimin Moon, and returning guest Will Wikle, known first for his iconic time spent as a houseguest on Big Brother 5 in 2004, and now as a psychiatric nurse practitioner with his own practice, Peace Park Psychiatry. Jimin talks about performing the leading role of Joe Gillis in the recent Broadway production of Sunset Blvd., the secrets of cruising from the stage, the shift his life has taken since his recent 25th birthday, and the New Year's resolution that revolutionized his sex life. Together, Jimin and Will talk about their chosen family, mentorship in the gay community, how Dads and Daddies helped bring them together, and how they've since developed a relationship that defies labels. Will also updates Brian and Judson on the successful growth of his psychiatry practice, on attending his first organized sex party, the Daddy Issue he spoke about during his first visit, and how Jimin has helped him conquer it. To close, Jimin and Will help Brian and Judson respond to not one, but two Go Ask Your Dad questions: one from a listener in an open marriage who finds the amount of sex his husband needs outside the marriage disconcerting, and a second from a listener debating whether or not he should accept the invitation from a couple 15 years his senior to join them in a throuple.

We dig into the mindset that stops the endless postmortem and starts Life 2.0, the role of community in healing, and why the smallest honest action beats another night of numbing out.Stephen's website: ReclaimYourTime.coListeners save 25% on 1-on-1 divorce coaching!

Send us a textA father that gives birth, a horse that says “no,” and an ER doctor who wants to keep you out of the hospital—this episode brings science and everyday choices into sharp focus. We start with a mind-bending dive into seahorses, where males carry the pregnancy and build a placenta-like environment from skin. New research shows familiar pregnancy genes at work inside the brood pouch, but with an unexpected hormonal switch: androgens, not estrogens, drive gestation. It's evolution repurposing its toolkit—and a powerful reminder that sex roles in nature are more flexible than we think.From there, we move into animal-assisted therapy and the role of consent in touch. A new study comparing dogs and horses found that forced interactions with horses raised heart rate and lowered HRV, signaling more stress, while choice calmed people down. Dogs showed no significant difference between conditions, suggesting human perception and species-specific behavior shape outcomes. If you run therapy programs, the insight is simple and humane: build animal choice into sessions, especially with horses, and track long-term welfare alongside human benefits.Then ER physician Dr. Shazma Mithani joins us to turn insight into prevention. We talk helmets for anything on wheels or snow, why e‑scooters drive more severe injuries per use than bikes, and how regular checkups and screening prevent emergencies before they start. We break down wildfire smoke—how particulates inflame lungs and harm the heart and brain—plus when to wear a well-fitted N95 outside and how to upgrade home air with MERV 11–13 filters or HEPA purifiers. Finally, we tackle measles: an airborne virus that lingers for hours, demands 95% vaccination for herd immunity, and is best stopped with two doses of MMR. Unsure where to get trusted answers? Talk to your doctor, pharmacist, or public health nurse, and lean on credible sources rather than influencers.If this helped you think differently about biology, safety, or public health, tap follow, share it with a friend, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway—we'll feature our favorites next week.Dr. Shazma Mithani's links:Her websiteHer PodcastInstagramOur links!Support the showFor Science, Empathy, and Cuteness!Being Kind is a Superpower.

Comedian Pete Holmes is calling out a lie most parents tell themselves: “I'm doing it for my family.” In this episode, Pete and Ryan break down how work, ambition, and the idea of “providing” can become the perfect excuse to drift away from the very people we say we're doing it all for.Pete Holmes is an American actor, comedian, writer, producer, and podcaster. He first gained recognition in the early 2010s as a stand-up comic, and also released his first comedy special and worked as a television writer and actor. He is the host of the podcast You Made It Weird, author of Comedy Sex God, and the creator of the HBO show Crashing.

A bit of a change for the December edition of the Dads on the Rocks podcast. I won't spoil anything, but you'll have to listen to see what's making such a clatter...   We hope you and yours have a wonderful holiday season!  

Statistically, it's terrifying. All the things that can go wrong. But you need to remember that statistics are about averages.

Summary   In this episode, Shelby and Courtney discuss their holiday preparations, including Christmas decorations and Thanksgiving reflections. They share stories about family gatherings, adventures at SeaWorld (including seeing listener Kristin in her new role as a Dolphin Trainer), and unexpected connections. The conversation also touches on cooking traditions, holiday games, and a humorous haircut incident involving Shelby's husband and son. They explore the challenges of communication with their husbands and how technology can assist in holiday planning.   Takeaways   Holiday preparations can be both exciting and stressful. Family traditions play a significant role in holiday celebrations. Adventures with family can create lasting memories. Unexpected connections can arise from shared experiences. Cooking for the holidays often involves cherished family recipes. Games and activities can enhance holiday gatherings. Communication challenges can arise in family dynamics. Technology can simplify holiday planning and organization. Humor can be found in unexpected situations, like haircuts. The importance of cherishing family moments during the holidays.  

The dads confront the modern "gentle parenting" movement head-on, arguing that its rejection of authority, restraint, and negative consequences has produced fragile families and weakened churches. Looking at Eli, David, and their sons, they show why Scripture insists that love includes rebuke, chastening, confession, and consistency. They discuss how to discipline without anger, how to correct while maintaining relationship, how to set wise family rules, and why children thrive inside clear boundaries. A needed re-alignment of grace and truth for Christian fathers.

We wanted to take a few minutes out of your week to acknowledge the awful experience IP's and surrogates alike are dealing with during the collapse (and possible fraud) of SurroConnections.

Christmas is amazing! The dads share about the things that make their Christmas so special, while also sharing about why Christmas is important at all! Enjoy and have a Merry Christmas!Email: Dads@PreacherDad.comCheck out PreacherDad.com

It's tough to be a person in this busy, noisy world. You have work. You have obligations as a citizen, as a spouse, as a friend, as a son or daughter. You've got goals you're trying to hit. And of course, having kids puts extra pressure and tension on all this.

Send us a textThank you, Zack Ticer, for making today's episode possible!What if the fastest way to lead your home better isn't another productivity hack, but the courage to slow down, feel uncomfortable, and ask for help? We sit with performance coach and Scratch Golfers Mindset host, Paul Salter, to unpack how a former perfectionist and firstborn “golden child” rewired his beliefs to become a more patient, present dad while co‑parenting his one‑year‑old son.Paul takes us inside the real tradeoffs: surrendering control, choosing kindness over being “nice,” and learning to apologize well. He shares the simple, powerful rituals that build identity and safety at home—daily affirmations, a handwritten letter for each birthday, and modeling ownership when he misses the mark. We dig into hypnosis as a practical mindset tool, not a party trick: accessing the subconscious to unlearn scarcity, detach self‑worth from results, and install habits that support presence. The same patterns that show up on the golf course—fear of judgment, score obsession, tension under pressure—mirror how we show up at work and with our kids. Paul shows how to translate a calm pre‑shot routine into a pre‑meeting breath and how belief, not bravado, drives consistency on and off the course.Along the way, we explore repairing sibling relationships, redefining masculinity through emotional availability, and navigating co‑parenting disagreements with patience and respect. You'll leave with three anchors for home leadership: give your child a better emotional experience than you had, demonstrate kindness with firm boundaries, and treat your child as a teacher who reveals where you still grip too tight. If you've ever felt pulled between crushing goals and being fully present at the dinner table, this conversation offers a clear, compassionate path forward.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs it, and leave a quick review.

Fathers Eve: Building Community and Connection for Dads EverywhereIn this episode, host Josh Elledge interviews John Francis, Founder of Fathers Eve, to explore how a small garage gathering grew into a nationwide movement supporting dads through connection, camaraderie, and community. John shares how Fathers Eve began organically in Minnesota and has since expanded into a global celebration held the night before Father's Day. He discusses the challenges many men face around social isolation and why intentional, judgment-free gatherings can have such a powerful impact on mental health, family life, and community strength.How Fathers Eve Helps Dads Build Meaningful ConnectionsJohn explains that many men lose touch with friendships as they get older, take on more responsibilities, or struggle to maintain social habits after the pandemic. Fathers Eve combats this by creating relaxed, pressure-free environments—ranging from backyard get-togethers to bar meetups to virtual countdown celebrations—where dads can show up as themselves without expectations. The simplicity is intentional: no speakers, no programming, just space for men to talk, laugh, share experiences, and realize they're not alone in their challenges.He also highlights the signature tradition that unites Fathers Eve events worldwide: the 8 p.m. local-time countdown toast, streamed across time zones, creating a shared moment of celebration and solidarity. Activities like cornhole, small trophies, and optional charity drives add fun, community impact, and meaningful purpose to gatherings. For hosts, Fathers Eve provides guidance, personal support from John, and the flexibility to design events that fit their community's needs.Finally, John emphasizes the broader ripple effect these events create—from forming new friendships to strengthening families to contributing to local charities through diaper drives and fundraising efforts. Fathers Eve's open, inclusive format allows dads to build deeper social bonds, improving mental well-being and fostering long-term connection. Whether attending or hosting, dads walk away feeling celebrated, supported, and part of something bigger.About John FrancisJohn Francis is the Founder of Fathers Eve, a global movement focused on creating connection, support, and community for dads everywhere.
