Episode 1. Why We Started: From Bus Conversations to Brotherhood Forged
Monday Apr 21, 2025
Monday Apr 21, 2025
In our very first episode, we go back to where it all began—two strangers on a bus in St. Louis who became brothers through faith, fatherhood, and a shared mission to serve.
We talk about:
Why this podcast exists
What brotherhood means to us
The power of stepping out of your comfort zone
Our backgrounds, our families, and our faith
How mentorship and community changed our lives
This episode is raw, unscripted, and honest—just two guys chasing growth, learning out loud, and showing up for the men God has called us to be.
