We are kicking off a massive, year-long celebration! Starting today, May 25th, 2026, Father.Son.Galaxy. is counting down to the upcoming 50th anniversary of Star Wars. Over the next year, we are dedicating special episodes to exploring how a galaxy far, far away completely reshaped pop culture. In this premiere episode, Kerwin is joined by award-winning author John Kenneth Muir to discuss his book, "Science Fiction and Fantasy Films of the 1970s". Together, they explore the cinematic landscape prior to May 1977—an era dominated by dark, dystopian themes and cautionary tales like Logan's Run, Soylent Green, and The Omega Man. They also examine how the massive success of Star Wars shifted the industry, paving the way for a wave of late-1970s sci-fi and fantasy milestones, including Battlestar Galactica, Buck Rogers, Star Trek: The Motion Picture, Moonraker, Alien, and Disney's The Black Hole.

Have you ever been mid-conversation with your partner, felt your jaw tighten, your stomach drop, your brain go sideways — and some part of you already looking for the exit?

In this authentic conversation, Dr. Dan sits down with EJ and Tarah Kerwin, founders of Relationship Renovation and hosts of the Relationship Renovation Podcast, to explore what it truly takes to build emotional safety, trust, and lasting connection in our relationships. Drawing from both their professional expertise and personal journey as a couple, EJ and Tarah open up about the challenges, breakthroughs, and courage required to do the work to make a relationship work. With Dr. Dan, EJ and Tarah remind us that real relationships are messy and that is exactly where growth begins. This powerful episode dives into the heart of relationship dynamics—how past experiences shape present behaviors, why conflict is inevitable, and how unresolved pain can turn into disconnection.

You weren't trying to blow it up. You weren't trying to say the thing that sent everything sideways. And yet — there you were, reactive and regretful, wondering how you got there so fast. That's dysregulation. And it is not a character flaw. It's not weakness. It's your nervous system doing exactly what it was wired to do — except it can't tell the difference between a threat in the wild and a look from your spouse across the kitchen. On this episode of the Save the Marriage Podcast, I sat down with EJ and Tara Kerwin, founders of Relationship Renovation, hosts of the Relationship Renovation Podcast, and a couple who — despite being trained therapists — found themselves in the thick of their own marriage crisis. They know this territory from the inside out. Here's what struck me most in our conversation: dysregulation doesn't always look like losing your temper. Sometimes it looks perfectly calm. Controlled. Logical, even. EJ describes how he would shut down internally — fully convinced he was being reasonable — while Tara's system was spinning. Two very different presentations of the same problem. And neither of them could see it clearly in the moment. That matters for you — even if you're navigating this alone. Because you can't control what your spouse does. But you can get much better at catching yourself before you're too far gone to course-correct. In this episode, we talk about: What it actually feels like in your body before you tip over the edge — and how to recognize the early signals Why a trigger is neutral until you assign meaning to it (and what that means for how you respond) The difference between facts and assumptions — and why that distinction can interrupt a spiral before it starts Why curiosity is the path back to empathy, and how your brain is actively working against you getting there This one is worth a listen. Not because every piece of it maps perfectly to working on a marriage alone — but because understanding your own regulation is the starting point for everything else.
