Is anonymity quietly discipling you? The dads contrast surface-level groups with the biblical fellowship that knows names, bears burdens, and insists on hope plus discipline. They lay out a path for men: confess honestly, believe the promises, re-commit to the Word and gathered worship, invite accountability, and keep coming back week after week. This is gospel courage with guardrails—truth, love, and long-haul patience.

We try to be conscious of this. Of how fast their childhood goes by. Of the need to be present. To enjoy this. To soak it in. And then what do we do?

Send us a textWhat if the bravest promise a father can make isn't “I'd die for my kids,” but “I'll live for them”? That line sits at the center of our conversation with Dr. Jarett Stopforth—a scientist, founder, and devoted dad whose journey runs from Zimbabwe and South Africa to Seattle, with stops in academia, startups, and a few blistering hikes that reset his bond with his kids.We dig into the values that shaped him—humility from a preacher father, grit from a mother who crossed class lines—and how those roots guide the way he co‑parents with intention and generosity. Jared opens up about reframing divorce as an opportunity to go all‑in on fatherhood, trading convenience for presence, and using travel to teach empathy and gratitude. He also breaks down a practical health blueprint for modern dads: high‑protein nutrition, daily steps, strength training, more sleep and sunlight, and less alcohol. Then we get into men's health at a deeper level—why testosterone matters, how today's lifestyle suppresses it, and what it looks like to support your body's natural systems before considering hormones.From the origin story of 21 Again to the choice to protect weekends and summers at all costs, this is a story about building a life strong enough to carry the people you love. If you've felt drained, distant, or stuck on autopilot, you'll leave with a clear, doable plan to reclaim energy, show up with patience, and create the kind of memories your kids will remember. Hit play, share with a friend who needs a nudge, and if this conversation helps, subscribe and leave a review so more dads can find it.Support the showPlease don't forget to leave us a review wherever you consume your podcasts!

In this episode of the Tough Girl Podcast, we meet Susan Norman — a former National and World Champion in whitewater kayaking and rafting, hydrologist, coach, and now author of RISK: A Life Saved by the River. Susan's story is one of courage, flow, and resilience. From the roaring rapids of international whitewater competition to the quiet, uncertain waters of parenting her young nephew, she's navigated life's toughest challenges with the same instinct, grit, and grace that made her a world-class paddler. Now retired from her career with the U.S. Forest Service and living in Lake Tahoe, California, Susan reflects on how rivers shaped her identity — not just as an athlete, but as a woman learning to make her own risk assessments, trust her judgement, and face fear head-on. In this conversation, Susan opens up about: Finding belonging and strength in the early days of women's paddling The lessons whitewater taught her about resilience and decision-making Her journey into writing and how storytelling became an extension of adventure What it really means to take good risks — on the river and in life Get ready for a deeply thoughtful episode about flow, fear, and finding freedom through the wild power of water. ***  New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)! Make sure to subscribe so you never miss the inspiring journeys and incredible stories of tough women pushing boundaries.  Do you want to support the Tough Girl Mission to increase the amount of female role models in the media in the world of adventure and physical challenges? Support via Patreon!

Remember when every kid wanted to be an astronaut? Not so much anymore. Today, Ryan talks with former NASA astronaut Terry Virts about why that dream has faded, how we can get kids excited about adventure again, and why critical thinking might be the most important skill for the next generation. At 17, Terry Virts joined the Air Force and went on to become an F-16 fighter pilot and test pilot. He has flown combat missions over Iraq, tested the world's fastest jets and commanded the International Space Station. He's orbited Earth 3,400 times and has spent 213 days in space total. His military decorations include the NASA Space Flight Medal, Defense Meritorious Service Medal, Meritorious Service Medal, Air Medal, Aerial Achievement Medal, NASA Exceptional Achievement Medal, Air Force Commendation Medal, et al. He retired from NASA in August 2016 and is currently running for U.S. Senate from Texas.

Life is filled with difficult, frustrating people. As parents, we encounter this reality daily—at work, in traffic, even at our children's afterschool activities.

Today's episode might be one of the best ever! www.Familymanweb.com  

Send us a textWhat happens when a successful corporate career collides with the deeper priorities of fatherhood? In this candid conversation, John Boney shares the raw journey of finding balance after his 25-year marriage ended, while raising three children who are now thriving adults.Standing at 6'7", John brings the same thoughtful perspective to parenting that once made him a formidable basketball player. Growing up in the small town of Latrobe, Pennsylvania (famous as Arnold Palmer's hometown), John absorbed values of punctuality, respect, and loyalty that shaped his approach to life. When career ambitions led to moving his family six times in nine years, he eventually reached a pivotal moment—choosing family stability over the next corporate ladder rung."I think what I learned was I had to find something that was gonna bring me joy and happiness," John reflects, explaining how prioritizing what truly matters led him to Force Management, where he now helps organizations accelerate sales performance. His story offers powerful lessons about perseverance through challenge, especially as he navigated the complexities of co-parenting after separation.The conversation takes fascinating turns through practical parenting wisdom, including how using TED-based questions (Tell, Explain, Describe) creates meaningful dialogue with children of any age. John shares how faith became his anchor during difficult times, offering the simple but profound mantra that sustained him: "Let go and let God."Whether you're facing career transitions, relationship challenges, or simply seeking to be more present with your children, John's journey demonstrates how maintaining core values of commitment, loyalty, and character can help raise well-adjusted adults even through life's most difficult seasons. His pre-game message to his children—"Have fun, work hard. I love you."—stands as a testament to how consistency and authentic love create the foundation children need to thrive.Support the showPlease don't forget to leave us a review wherever you consume your podcasts!

Here are the fully formatted, SEO-optimized show notes for the Dad Edge Podcast episode featuring Ethan Hagner (Oct 1, 2025):     EPISODE SUMMARY In this episode of the Dad Edge Podcast, I sit down with my son Ethan for another real and reflective conversation about what it means to grow up with intention, confidence, and emotional maturity. We dig into how young men can use challenges to build strength, how mindset shapes everything, and why confidence is earned, not given.   You'll hear us explore how to handle life's curveballs, overcome fear of judgment, and cultivate confidence through action.

Zach talks with Brian and Toby, partners of 13 years, and dads of two daughters. They share openly about parenting, building a household on their own terms, and how their marriage has evolved through different phases, from dating in Manhattan to raising a family in Brooklyn. Brian and Toby talk about splitting household roles, setting expectations, and creating rules that bring freedom instead of friction. They also share how growing up gay shaped their ability to design a marriage without traditional templates, why openness and honesty fuel their intimacy, and how they balance parenting with maintaining fun and connection. Key Takeaways Parenting in phases – From toddlers to elementary-aged kids, parenting shifts from hands-on care to emotional presence, and Brian and Toby embrace each new stage. Custom rules reduce conflict – Alternating mornings, dividing domains like kitchen and bedtime, and setting an “11 a.m. rule” help keep household harmony. Gay marriage breaks the mold – Without pressure to follow traditional timelines, they built their relationship with more freedom and intentionality. From secrecy to openness – Their open marriage evolved from “don't ask, don't tell” to full transparency, deepening their trust and intimacy. Compersion in practice – They highlight how celebrating a partner's happiness, whether in rest, personal pursuits, or relationships, can fuel closeness. Shared values of planning and fun – Their natural organization and commitment to joy give their family structure and spontaneity in equal measure.

On this episode of Bringin' It Backwards, Adam and Tera Lisicky sit down with Jake from In Hearts Wake for a raw, insightful look at his unusual journey from the creative beaches of Byron Bay to the international heavy music scene. Jake opens up about growing up surrounded by artists—his mom, a tarot card reader; his “bonus dad,” a hardcore punk frontman—and how the wild energy of side-stage moments at legendary shows set him on the path to forming In Hearts Wake, his first and only band. From recording DIY demos for school art projects to traveling across the globe to capture their signature sound, Jake shares how In Hearts Wake found early recognition, carved out a unique identity around powerful themes like environmentalism, and pushed boundaries with cryptic album concepts inspired by tarot cards. He explains how their newest release completes a 12-year journey, finishing what they started as teenagers by turning the remaining tarot archetypes into thunderous new songs. Jake also talks candidly about the band's evolution, the heartbreak and hope of longtime bassist Kyle's upcoming departure, and what it really takes to keep a creative partnership together for over a decade. Along the way, you'll hear about secret album easter eggs, epic on-stage energy, and the power of making sure your art comes from a real place. If you're an aspiring artist, a fan of heartfelt heavy music, or just love personal stories about forging your own path, don't miss this episode. Listen now to get inspired, and make sure to subscribe to Bringin' It Backwards for more backstage access to your favorite artists' real stories.

Judson accepts a job offer and feels deep appreciation for all the support he received over his past few weeks of unemployment. Brian has found a new love in a sandwich he's discovered near his office. Brian and Judson express their love for the trans community and ask how they can be best of service in these times of incredible oppression. The super-hot Hookup of the Week comes from a listener who attends Dads and Daddies friend DJ James Anthony's new party, Unspeakable Joy, where he meets a pair of platonic roommates and brings them home to his boyfriend. The two are then joined by popular bator content creator Bryan Bance, aka XY BK Bry. Bryan talks about the enormity and variety of the bator community, he educates Brian about what it's like to attend a bator event, he shares how being a bator has made him a better lover, how ejaculation does not always have to be the end goal, and provides thoughts on how one can get started on their own journey exploring masturbation. He also talks about the pleasure of ‘ruined orgasms,' provides tips on edging, discusses the phenomenon of gooning, and laments the lack of accurate sex education in the U.S. To close, Bryan joins Brian and Judson in responding to a Go Ask Your Dad question from a listener who has only just begun to explore openness in his relationship with his boyfriend and would like advice on setting agreements around communication.

Brandon shares how the lessons learned from sobriety, fitness, and fatherhood all intersect—and why your physical discipline directly impacts your emotional presence at home.   From building routines that work to leading by example and showing up in the hard moments, Brandon reminds us that no one gets it perfect—but if you're consistent, you'll make an impact. Whether you're a dad in recovery, rebuilding trust, or just trying to show up better, this episode will challenge and encourage you.     TIMELINE SUMMARY [0:00] - Welcome and introducing today's guest: Brandon Mancine [1:42] - Brandon's story: growing up, addiction, and breaking the cycle [4:15] - How sobriety and fatherhood gave his life new direction [6:32] - The parallels between fitness discipline and emotional presence [9:10] - Why consistency wins over intensity in both training and parenting [12:27] - Learning to show up when you least feel like it [15:14] - Rebuilding trust with your kids after failure or absence [17:06] - The shift from proving yourself to leading with humility [19:25] - What recovery has taught Brandon about self-awareness [22:43] - The power of structure and routine in family life [24:58] - Why dads need to model vulnerability, not perfection [27:09] - Tools Brandon uses to stay grounded and connected [29:40] - Brandon's advice to dads who feel like they're “too far gone” [31:56] - Final reflections on faith, fitness, and leading from love     5 KEY TAKEAWAYS   1. Consistency Beats Intensity Whether it's in the gym or with your kids, showing up regularly matters more than doing it perfectly. Your presence is your power. 2. Recovery Requires Ownership Brandon shares that the key to rebuilding trust is accepting where you've been, owning it, and showing up differently—without needing a pat on the back. 3. Fitness Is a Mirror for Fatherhood Discipline, patience, and pushing through discomfort in training teach us how to lead with strength and humility at home. 4. You're Never Too Far Gone No matter how far you feel you've fallen as a father, you can always begin again—with consistency, honesty, and grace. 5. Vulnerability Builds Connection Perfection isn't the goal—presence is. Leading with vulnerability opens the door to trust, healing, and deeper relationships with your kids.       LINKS & RESOURCES Brandon Mancine Coaching: https://bmfcoaching.com/ Hair XT (Brandon's hair restoration brand): https://hairxt.com/ The Dad Edge Alliance: https://www.thedadedge.com/alliance 25 Questions to Spark Connection With Your Partner: https://www.thedadedge.com/25questions Dad Edge Podcast Website: https://www.thedadedge.com/podcast Sign up for Poststack Updates: https://www.thedadedge.com/poststack Tools & Resources for Dads: https://www.thedadedge.com/tools     If this episode encouraged you to lead with greater intention, please follow, rate, review, and share the podcast.
