Bam Marshall is the host of The Wild Chaos Podcast, an entrepreneur, husband, father, a US Marines veteran and leader of the BAM Nation men’s community. He is intense, funny, blunt, protective, and deeply tender toward his wife and daughters. In this conversation, Bam brings a no-BS message to fathers:

your kids do not just need to know you love them — they need to trust you.

They need to know they can call you, or drop a pin in a text, and trust you'll show up to save them - no questions asked. Or be able to confess what is really going on, and not be met by ego, rage, or a lecture before they are heard.

This is a raw, passionate episode that touches on: girl dad fatherhood, trust, faith, homeschooling, playfulness, college alternatives, military skepticism, protecting your family, breaking generational chains, and refusing to become the grumpy old a-hole who nobody wants to visit.
