What’s one lesson from your father that still guides you today—and are you passing it on?

This Father’s Day special dives into the personal stories, emotional reflections, and legacy-building lessons that shaped hosts Drew and Ed as men and fathers. Whether your relationship with your dad was strong, complicated, or distant, this episode offers a meaningful space to reflect on how father figures influence us—sometimes in ways we're still discovering.

Hear the surprising ways Drew’s biological father and stepdad both shaped his values of integrity and dependability.

Discover why Ed’s father, a 38-year public school teacher, taught him that service goes far beyond family.

Gain insight into how to forgive a complicated father figure—and why that may unlock healing for your own kids.

Listen now to reflect on the power of legacy, service, and what it truly means to “show up” as a dad.
