Marriage, Family & Life with Soldiers as Husbands

In Part 1, we introduced you to our wives, Nikki and Audra — veterans in their own right who shared their military journeys, challenges, and victories.

Now in Part 2 of And Finally the Wives, we go deeper. This episode is about life after the uniform — and what it meant to build marriages, raise families, and navigate life with Soldiers as husbands.

In this episode, we cover:

•How we first met, and the real first impressions (the good, the bad, and the funny)

•What it was like being married to another Soldier while also serving themselves

•Balancing careers, deployments, and family responsibilities

•The sacrifices and struggles unique to dual-military marriages

•The joys, challenges, and lessons that came from building family and legacy together

🎙️ Four Titles, One Truth — Veterans. Husbands. Fathers. Black Men.

And in this finale, we honor the women who walked beside us every step of the way.

Thank you for walking with us through Season 1 of Four Titles, One Truth. From the laughs to the lessons, the hard truths to the personal stories, we’ve built something real — and we couldn’t have done it without you.

But this is just the beginning. Season 2 is coming with bigger topics, deeper conversations, and even more truth. Stay tuned, because we’re not slowing down.

How to find mentors, be coachable, and turn advice into growth.

Mentorship doesn’t work by wishing for it — it works when both people do the work. In this episode of Four Titles, One Truth, we get real about what mentorship actually looks like in the military and beyond: expectations, boundaries, accountability, and the difference between a mentor, coach, and sponsor.

We cover:

•What mentorship is (and isn’t): mentor vs. coach vs. sponsor

•How to find a mentor without being awkward (and how to keep one)

•The mentee’s job: being prepared, coachable, and consistent

•Setting goals, boundaries, and meeting rhythms that stick

•Giving and receiving feedback without getting defensive

•When it’s time to outgrow a mentor (or evolve the relationship)

•Sponsorship: getting someone to speak your name in rooms you’re not in

•Lessons from the uniform: leadership, accountability, and paying it forward

Whether you’re looking for guidance or ready to guide someone else, this conversation gives you a practical playbook to make mentorship real — not mythical.

Are men really cooking, or just claiming the credit? 

In this episode of Four Titles, One Truth, we’re stirring the pot — literally and figuratively. From chow halls and MREs to home kitchens and date-night dinners, we ask the big question: Do real men cook, or are they just taking the credit?

Lance and Tommie dive into:

•How military life shaped their relationship with food

•First real meals cooked after leaving the DFAC

•Whether cooking is “optional” for men

•Who actually cooks more in their homes — and why

•Funny, unexpected stories from the kitchen

•How cooking can bring families together (or drive them crazy)

Expect laughs, personal stories, and a few confessions that might surprise you.

Every service member has one.

That one assignment. That one place.

Where everything shifted — your mindset, your motivation, maybe even your whole life.

In this episode, we each share the duty station that changed everything. Not because it was easy. But because it forced growth — as leaders, as people, and as Black men in uniform.

We unpack:

•The unexpected ways a location can shape your leadership

•The moments that tested our patience and revealed our potential

•What we learned about resilience, identity, and purpose

•How one assignment can still influence who we are years later

•Why we think everyone has that “one place” — even if it didn’t look special on paper

This is about more than just PCS orders. This is about transformation.

Let’s talk about it — the uncomfortable, the complicated, and the deeply personal.

In this episode of Four Titles, One Truth, we take on gun culture in America — not from a political stance, but from a veteran’s perspective. We’ve handled weapons professionally. We’ve trained with them, deployed with them, and respected their purpose. But once you’re back home, that relationship changes — and so does the conversation.

We break down:

•The difference between military and civilian gun culture

•Why many veterans feel caught between responsibility and rights

•How trauma, identity, and patriotism shape views on gun ownership

•The tension between regulation and freedom

•Why our views aren’t always what people expect

This isn’t about telling anyone what to believe — it’s about sharing our truth as men who carried weapons for a living… and now carry the weight of what they mean in America.

Are today’s Soldiers softer… or just different?

And more importantly—did we help make them that way?

In this episode of Four Titles, One Truth, we’re going head-to-head on one of the most debated topics in the military:

Old school versus new school.

We get into:

•Whether today’s military culture has gotten “too soft”

•How leadership expectations have changed over time

•The role we played as senior NCOs and Officers in shaping this new generation

•If being more emotionally aware is really a weakness—or an evolution

•What we miss (and don’t miss) about the old-school Army

•And the truth about how much tougher “we” really were

This one’s full of perspective, reflection, and a few hard truths. If you’ve ever said “it wasn’t like that back in my day,” or heard it one too many times—you’re gonna want to hear this one.

You earn the rank. You wear the uniform. But does everyone really see you the same?

In this episode of Four Titles, One Truth, we unpack a tough but necessary topic: what happens when your rank doesn’t protect you from bias — especially as a Black service member.

We talk about:

•The difference between authority and respect — and how they don’t always come together

•Real moments when we were outranked but still overlooked

•The way unconscious bias shows up in military systems and culture

•Why some leaders get followed… and others just get tolerated

•How race, personality, and background affect the way rank is perceived

This one’s not about calling people out — it’s about calling attention to a truth that too many pretend doesn’t exist.

It may not be comfortable, but it’s real. And we said what needed to be said.

Fired, tired, and broke...That about sums up where we were before the Army started to make sense.

In this fun and honest episode, we rewind to the days before we ever wore a uniform. When we were just two young Black men doing whatever we could to make a dollar. We’re talking McDonald’s. Kmart. Bus stations. Construction. Quitting jobs. Getting fired. Cleaning up messes and making even more.

But through all that chaos? We were learning. About people. About pride. About limits. And eventually, about purpose.

In this episode of Four Titles, One Truth, we share:

•Our worst jobs (and the surprising lessons they left behind)

•What it felt like working with no direction, just survival

•Why the Army wasn’t part of the plan… but ended up being the turning point

•The moment we realized we needed something more

•Why we believe every leader should have a humbling job on their résumé

This one is about work, manhood, struggle, and the path to something greater, even when it starts at the bottom of the deep fryer.
