In this episode, Bryan, Kellen, and Thad are joined by a special guest — the first female on the podcast, Debra Wimpee, Mayor of Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. Together, they dive deep into the real-world dynamics of modern leadership, personal image, and community influence through conversations that challenge perspectives and inspire action.

We start at the gym, exploring how attire draws attention from both men and women, and the unspoken societal expectations placed on women in public spaces. From there, the discussion shifts to leadership, using the story of a female mayor to highlight the power of being approachable, relatable, and truly connected to the people you serve.

The conversation expands to address the unique challenges veterans face and the responsibility leaders have to honor and support them. We examine the delicate balance between personal appearance and professional presence, especially in a world where social media can shape public perception in seconds.

Throughout the episode, we emphasize the importance of intention—behind our actions, our image, and our leadership. Grace and compassion emerge as essential traits for anyone stepping into positions of influence.

The episode closes on a powerful note: the joy and fulfillment that comes from serving others and making a lasting positive impact in your community.

👉 Tune in for honest conversation, practical insights, and thought-provoking perspectives on what it truly means to lead with purpose in today’s world.

This discussion with Bryan, Kellen and Thad with special guest Sheriff Vic Regalado pulling no punches. It takes on the brutal truth that we’ve grown numb to violence and even celebrate it like entertainment. It calls out public figures who shape morality—sometimes for the worse—and exposes how social media has become a weapon against truth. But it doesn’t stop there. Real stories of men transformed by faith show how brokenness can be turned into strength. We dive into innovative prison reform, the power of knowing who you are, and the brotherhood found in real community. At its core, this is about fighting for humanity, leading with courage, and standing unashamed in your faith in a world that’s losing its grip on what matters.

In this episode, Bryan, Kellen and Thad get real about the daily grind and the unseen battles men face—at work, at home, and in their communities. They share stories that prove how the smallest acts of kindness can shift the direction of someone’s day and how being present in the moment is one of the most underrated forms of leadership.

The conversation also highlights the 1440 Promise Prison Ministry, where men preparing to reenter society got the chance to step into a “Shark Tank”-style event with Governor Kevin Stitt of Oklahoma. These men presented their business plans for life after prison—proof that leadership, growth, and redemption can come from the hardest places. It’s a powerful reminder that opportunity and community support can rewrite someone’s future. Putting God into their lives, plans and looking forward to the next chapter with BIG PLANS!

This isn’t just about being strong; it’s about being smart enough to let others protect your blind spots. The guy's dive into how trust and vulnerability can actually make relationships stronger, not weaker, and why men need to recognize the power in letting their partners stand guard sometimes.

From tackling hard challenges that forge personal growth to stepping up in community initiatives that fuel real change, this conversation is a reminder that leadership isn’t about doing it all alone—it’s about showing up, staying grounded, and living with purpose.

In this episode, special guest Fighter- Tater McSpadden lays it all out—his journey from a rough past to living with purpose, faith, and impact. He doesn’t sugarcoat the battles with mental health and recovery, and he is clear that it was his relationship with God that pulled him through. Authenticity became his weapon, and telling his story became his way to lead.

Bryan, Kellen and Thad talk about the power of brotherhood and community—how no man or woman climbs out alone. Tater's story shines a light on the hidden struggles so many faces and shows how speaking up can give someone else the courage to fight their own battles.
