Life Between Coasts

Bernie is back! 🙌
You might remember him from last season as the pot-smoking, cussing preacher-Shep who quickly became a fan favorite—and this time, we’re diving even deeper.

In Episode 7 of Life Between Coasts, Bernie opens up about what it really looked like to become a man in today’s world without always having a teacher, mentor, or clear roadmap along the way. He shares how the Bible stepped in as his guide, shaping his values, grounding his faith, and helping him navigate life when answers didn’t come easy.

Just like before, this conversation is high-energy, honest, a little raw, and full of laughter. It’s a powerful reminder that growth doesn’t always come from perfect circumstances—sometimes it comes from listening, learning, and leaning into something bigger than yourself.

Grab your coffee (or whatever Bernie’s having 😉) and settle in—this one’s lively, meaningful, and full of heart.
