Leave an Amazon Rating or Review for my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!Three legendary figures reveal how fatherhood and family transformed their relationship with success and purpose. Matthew McConaughey shares the moment his relationship with Camila gave him courage to turn down millions in romantic comedies, leading to his Oscar-winning transformation, while confessing he wrote down 10 life goals at age 21 - including winning an Oscar before he was even acting. Kobe Bryant opens up about learning fundamentals after scoring zero points an entire summer at age 11, then using psychological warfare to elevate teammates and dominate opponents. Terry Crews delivers the most vulnerable story, describing his 30-year journey from an abused child in Flint to beating up his father at age 30, only to discover revenge solved nothing.

Former NFL Linebacker (10 years) Will Compton presents a Bussin With The Boys production, For The Dads! Along side future dad, Sherman Young, Will a father of two knows how hard the job of a father can be. Thus he created a safe space for dads to come together and talk about the insane shit that we see and deal with every day. With Sherman's first born just 6 weeks away, Will Compton is attempting to show him the ropes and call all dads together to join in a safe space for us to vent and speak candidly about the mental load and tasks we take on as dads. Will tells the story of his oldest daughter falling down the stairs, while Sherman is battling with a 32 week pregnant wife (not advisable).

This is not just a tribute to dads—it's a call to see them, support them, and understand them through the lens of brain science and mental health.I also sit down with my husband, Mac Leaf, for a candid conversation about his experience as a father—and what he wishes more people knew.This is the episode every dad, partner, son, and supporter of fatherhood needs to hear.

Have you ever asked yourself: "How do I teach my kids accountability when I'm not always perfect myself?" "Does admitting my mistakes actually make me a weaker dad?" "What does it truly take to build unbreakable trust with my children?" If these questions resonate, get ready for a raw and honest conversation that dives deep into one of the most vital lessons dads can teach: extreme ownership. Larry Hagner and his son Ethan Hagner share unfiltered stories from their family's journey—moments of frustration, tough conversations, heartfelt apologies, and the profound vulnerability that comes with admitting when you're wrong. Together, they explore why modeling accountability as a father doesn't diminish your credibility; it fundamentally builds trust and earns lasting respect. Become the best husband and leader you can: www.thedadedge.com/mastermind In this powerful conversation, we dig into: The Counterintuitive Power of Apology: Larry recounts difficult parenting seasons, including struggles with anger and the immense pressure to be a "perfect" dad, and how genuine apologies transformed those moments. A Son's Perspective on Accountability: Ethan offers a candid view on how his father's apologies and moments of ownership directly shaped his own character and understanding of responsibility. Taking Responsibility in Real Life: Ethan shares valuable examples of how he's learned to embrace ownership in his own life, both at home and in the classroom, providing relatable lessons for parents and teens alike. Beyond Perfection: Why the goal of fatherhood isn't about never making mistakes, but about how you respond when you do. Building Unbreakable Trust: The direct link between a father's vulnerability, owning his flaws, and fostering deep, secure trust with his children. This episode delivers authentic wisdom and reassurance, reminding every dad (and future dad) out there that perfection isn't the goal—connection and growth are. Here's what research and observation highlight about parental accountability and child development: Children whose parents model admitting mistakes and apologizing have 40% higher levels of empathy and a stronger sense of personal responsibility. Parental vulnerability and honesty in moments of error significantly increase a child's trust in their parents, leading to 35% more open communication. Adolescents with fathers who consistently practice accountability show a 25% lower likelihood of engaging in risky behaviors. www.thedadedge.com/alliance www.1stphorm.com/dadedge www.thedadedge.com/mastermind  

Frederic Gray is a national speaker, author, and the founder of the Fathers of Faith and Daughters of Excellence Retreat in Tampa, Florida. He's a husband and a father of five (5) (2 boys, 3 girls, from ages 12 to 1) with one more on the way, and he's passionate about teaching fathers how to win the hearts of their children. He's also the author of “How to Win Your Children's Heart Using God's Word.” To connect with Frederic Gray, you can visit his websites at either: http://www.FredericGray.com or http://wwww.FatherDaughterRetreat.com. Here are the steps Frederic outlined for us: When to spank: When they clearly understand the rules they broke and your expectations of them. Make sure they understand that the most important thing to do is obey God. Find a private place to spank them. Speak super gentle to them and without anger. Have them tell you what they were supposed to do, but didn't. Ask them: "Did you obey Daddy?" Ask them: "Did you obey God?" Share a verse from the Bible on discipline (Ex. Prov. 13:24). Ask them: "What is God telling me to do?" (child: to spank me) Ask them: "If I don't spank you, am I obeying God?" Tell them: "I want to obey God, because I love you and I love God." Ask them (again):"Do you know why I'm going to give you a spanking?" Pray with them BEFORE you spank them (while holding them close). Use the rod/paddle (NOT your hand) when spanking your child. Hit them only on the bottom (let it hurt, but don't damage them). Lay with them afterwards to comfort them and affirm them. ---------------------------------    If you want to help us transform the lives of even MORE MEN for God's glory, please take a minute to leave us a helpful REVIEW and SHARE this podcast with any man you know who's in need of help and hope and is hurting.”  And to make sure you don't miss a podcast episode, as well as contest give-a-ways, special announcements, and much more, make sure you "Stay Connected" by visiting us at https://station.page/realmen to join our online community of podcast listeners.   Talk with Dr. Joe 1-on-1: Are you tired and stuck? Want to go to get your faith, marriage, family, career and finances back on track?  Then maybe it's time you got a coach.

In this special Father's Day edition of the podcast, I'm joined by my good friend Larry Hagner. While we're focusing on fatherhood, this episode is packed with wisdom for every married couple. From building a stronger marriage, to deepening your connection with your kids, to taking care of your own well-being—Larry shares wisdom that every family can benefit from.   Episode Highlights: Community and support are essential for fathers. The relationship between husband and father roles is interconnected. Children learn about relationships from their parents' marriage. Legacy is built through the relationships we model. Seeking help and resources is a sign of strength.  Intimacy is rooted in emotional connection. Understanding your partner's needs is crucial for intimacy. Sex is a celebration of a strong emotional bond. Being a spiritual leader starts with self-leadership. Proactive planning can enhance relationships. Navigating modern parenting requires open communication. It's okay not to have all the answers as a parent. Learning together with your children strengthens bonds.   Questions for Reflection: Which cultural pressures do we feel most as parents right now, and how can we support each other in responding to them with biblical wisdom? Are there ways we've let parenting take priority over our marriage lately? What small changes could help us reconnect more intentionally as a couple? How do we currently approach discipline and spiritual formation—are we united in our values, and where might we need better alignment or communication? What habits could we build into our week to stay emotionally and spiritually connected—not just as parents, but as husband and wife? What specific Scriptures or practices can help you stay rooted as a father (parent)?   Quotes from Today's Episode:  "It's important to show children how to love well." "Creating a strong family foundation is essential." "I want to feel connected to her. I love her." "What we plan for, we can execute." "We can't put our head in the sand."   Mentioned in this episode: Find Larry's podcast HERE. Connect with Larry on social media. This month's resource is for every couple.

This week on Parenting is a Joke, Ophira Eisenberg welcomes comedian Mike Cannon for a Father's Day–timed conversation packed with raw insight, humor, and real talk about parenting sensitive kids while holding onto your sanity and creative drive. Mike opens up about life with a kindergartner and a seven-month-old, reflecting on how jujitsu helped his son build emotional resilience—and how parenting has forced him to confront his own childhood trauma, OCD, and anger. The two comedians swap stories about navigating vulnerability, shifting identities post-kids, and finding joy (and a little stability) in edibles. Mike also unpacks the internal war he feels before going on stage and how childhood fears shape his on-stage energy. They cover everything from microdosing trends among parents to the strange poetry of seeing your father's face in your baby's crying eyes. He shares how a Don't Tell Comedy set pushed him to reshape his material for younger audiences, while still anchoring it in authentic parenting truths. Plus, he and Ophira bond over their shared frustration with schools punishing behavior by taking away recess—arguably the one thing kids need most.

In this heart-forward episode of Fatherhood Field Notes, host Ned Schaut sits down with Hawaii-born real estate pro and former touring musician, Chris Stimac, to unpack the power of presence, partnership, and purpose in fatherhood. From the stage lights of Europe to the ocean tides of Kona, Chris opens up about choosing intentional family life over fame—and how that one choice redefined his success.
