[S2] EPISODE 35: HUSBAND PREPARATION

Marriage has a way of waking us up to realities we never imagined. Many of us stepped into it unprepared, thinking love and good intentions would be enough, only to collide with the weightiness of responsibility, our hidden wounds, and the expectations we never knew we carried. In this episode, four husbands sit down to have the kind of raw, unfiltered conversation every man needs: about the struggles we didn’t anticipate, the fears we never admitted, and the slow realisation that being a husband requires more than just showing up.

We talk about the baggage we brought into marriage, fatherlessness, trauma, detachment, and the unspoken pressure to “just figure it out.” We open up about the moments that humbled us: when conflict revealed our lack of capacity, when our wives’ strength challenged our fragile egos, and when our unresolved past showed up in our homes. These are not polished stories; they are scars carried into manhood that still ache. But in the telling, there is healing.

This is a podcast by husbands, for husbands. Not to give you a five-step formula, but to remind you that you are not alone in your confusion, your failures, or your longing to grow. We are men in process, imperfect, often overwhelmed, but committed to failing forward together. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re the only one struggling, this conversation is for you. Pull up a chair, listen in, and let’s walk this journey of husbandhood side by side.

[S2] EPISODE 34: THE MAN IN THE MIRRIOR

In this episode, we dive deep into one of the greatest battles men face: lust. But not in the way you might think. We go beyond the surface to uncover the hidden longings, unmet desires, and unresolved wounds that quietly shape how we live, love, and lead in our marriages. These aren’t just struggles with the flesh, they are echoes of deeper cravings for acceptance, power, validation, and freedom. And left unchecked, they can quietly sabotage the very relationships we long to protect.
We get raw and real about the masks men wear, the silent wars we fight in our private thoughts, and the ways we often create illusions to escape unmet needs. Whether it’s the lust for validation that drives us to please people, the lust for power that makes us reckless with money, or the lust for freedom that tempts us to rebel against commitment, these inner battles demand courage, self-awareness, and honesty. This is not just about naming the problem but about learning to recognise where it comes from and how it shows up in our everyday choices as husbands.

This conversation is not for perfect men, it’s for men like us who are wrestling, stumbling, and still choosing to fight for healthier marriages. If you’ve ever felt the weight of secret battles you couldn’t put into words, this episode will give you language, perspective, and hope. It’s a call to curiosity instead of judgment, to courage instead of denial, and to building marriages that are conscious, patient, and rooted in love.

[S2] EPISODE 33: COMMITMENT IS A DAILY CHOICE

Marriage is more than a title, it’s a daily decision to show up, to love, and to choose each other through the highs and lows. In this episode of That Husband Podcast, we sit down with Una Rams, not just as the artist you know, but as a husband and father who opens up about the weight and wonder of love, responsibility, and choosing family. His story is not about perfection, but about the courage it takes to embrace vulnerability, to redefine strength, and to pursue love that is intentional and enduring.

Together, we talk about the conscious decision to step into fatherhood, the raw reality of what safety looks like for men in marriage, and the power of walking alongside, not ahead or behind, your partner. From the magic and chaos of childbirth to the sacred responsibility of raising children, Una shares moments that shaped his journey and challenged him to love without the baggage of the past. This isn’t theory, it’s the real, unpolished beauty of marriage lived out in daily choices.

What emerges is a picture of love that isn’t built on fairy tales, but on respect, faith, and resilience. This episode will challenge husbands to reimagine what it means to protect, to partner, and to grow together. It’s a conversation for every man who knows marriage isn’t about arriving perfect, but about failing forward, learning daily, and holding on to the hope that when we choose love, fully and freely, we choose life.

August 27, 2025 I Got Married Without My Family’s Blessing: The Hard Truth I Learned at 21 | Kutlwano Ditsele
Marriage is never just about two people, it’s also about the families and histories that stand behind them. But what happens when those families refuse to stand with you? In this episode we dive into the raw and often painful reality of marrying without your family’s blessing. From the quiet heartbreak of parents who withhold support, to the courage it takes to lead your own household when the crowd is against you, this conversation is both transparent and necessary.

As husbands, we know the weight of stepping into marriage: the decision to expose our defects, the challenge of accountability, and the risk of walking a road that isn’t always cheered on. Kutlwano Ditsele opens up about how he faced the lonely, frightening possibility of starting a marriage without his father’s approval, and the deep conviction that carried him forward anyway. It’s a story of faith, resilience, and the costly beauty of choosing your wife, even when it means losing other affirmations.

This isn’t just theory, it’s the lived reality for many men. And in telling this story, we’re reminded that marriage is a sacred covenant, not a popularity contest. Family blessing is valuable, but it is not the foundation, God’s call and your commitment are. So if you’ve ever wrestled with the tension between honouring your parents and leading your new family, this episode will help you reflect, find courage, and know you’re not alone.

August 20, 2025 When Serving The Church Almost Destroyed My Marriage | Allan.P
Visit www.thathusband.com for merch, event tickets and other resources

[S2] EPISODE 31: GOD'S WORK vs GOD'S DAUGHTER

Marriage isn’t just about love stories and Instagram moments, it’s about the daily choice to show up, sacrifice, and sometimes die to self for the sake of the one you vowed to cherish. In this episode, we sit down with Allan.P to talk about what husbandhood really looks like when the butterflies fade, the fights get real, and life throws both joy and hardship our way. His story reminds us that being a husband isn’t about perfection, it’s about persistence, humility, and faithfulness when it’s easier to walk away.

From the early years of marriage to raising kids and navigating the pressures of work, dreams, and ministry, Allan.P opens up about the hidden battles husbands face, the pride, the fatigue, the temptation to drift, and the weight of responsibility. Yet woven through his story is a testimony of grace: a wife who fuels his ambition, a faith that reshapes his perspective, and a vision of marriage that sees “death to self” not as loss but as the soil where love and legacy grow.

This conversation isn’t just for men who think they’ve figured it out, it’s for husbands still stumbling forward, husbands carrying unseen frustrations, and husbands who need to be reminded that they’re not alone. If you’ve ever wrestled with ego, with balance, with choosing your wife over your comfort, then this episode will speak to you. Because at the end of the day, being a husband is less about having it all together, and more about being willing to learn, to sacrifice, and to keep choosing love, day after day.

August 13, 2025 How I Went From Leading Bible Study to Getting A Girl Pregnant | Ofentse Moerane
Visit www.thathusband.com for merch, event tickets and other resources

[S2] EPISODE 30: MAKING THINGS RIGHT

"Nine years ago, a single phone call during Bible Study changed everything. My then-girlfriend’s trembling voice told me she was pregnant. In that moment, the future we had imagined shifted completely. What followed wasn’t just a test of faith, it was a test of love, responsibility, and resilience. Her family cut ties. My reputation in the church felt shattered. And yet, in the middle of the shock and shame, I knew one thing: I couldn’t run. I had to stay."

This episode isn’t about a perfect love story. It’s about two people who stumbled hard and then chose to stand together anyway. We talk about navigating estrangement, the weight of cultural expectations, the sting of disappointing those who believed in us, and the slow, grace-filled process of rebuilding trust, with our families, our faith community, and ourselves. Along the way, we unpack how fatherhood began not in the maternity ward, but in a decision to take responsibility, even when it was costly.

For husbands, future husbands, and any man who’s ever faced the gap between who he wanted to be and what actually happened, this conversation is for you. It’s about how God’s grace can take a mess and turn it into a marriage, a family, and a testimony. It’s about what we’ve learned over nine years of parenting, persevering, and leaning on each other when winter came. And it’s a reminder that even the most unexpected beginnings can lead to stories worth telling.

August 06, 2025 What’s The Point Of Winning At Work While You're Destroying Your Home? | Ezekiel Nkotsoe
Visit www.thathusband.com for merch, event tickets and other resources

[S2] EPISODE 29: ALTAR OF AMBITION

In this episode, we sit down with Ezekiel Nkotsoe, seven months into marriage and already confronted with the question most men never dare to ask: "Am I idolizing success at the expense of my wife?" Ezekiel shares how his obsession with performance, numbers, and being “the best” collided head-on with the quiet but holy demands of marriage. What began as a journey to build wealth and legacy was slowly revealed as a quest for validation, rooted in childhood trauma and masked as ambition.

As husbands, we often say we’re grinding “for the family,” but how many Christmases can you miss before you’ve actually started grinding away from them? Ezekiel opens up about the difficult conversations with his wife, his coach, and God, uncovering the subtle lies we believe about ambition, provision, and masculinity. He reminds us that spiritual, emotional, and physical presence matters more than the car you pull into the driveway. And sometimes, the most godly ambition is learning to be content, to be present, and to serve the family God has placed in front of you.

This episode is not just for the high performers or sales guys in Jozi, it’s for every husband trying to reconcile his grind with his calling. Whether you’re newly married, seasoned, or still considering what kind of man you want to be, this conversation is a sacred space for honest reflection. Because at the end of the day, no amount of ambition can hold your hand when you're old, only the woman you chose to love well can do that.

July 30, 2025 Divorce, Loss, Hitting Rock Bottom - My Struggle To Provide For My Family | Caskey Ndaba
Visit www.thathusband.com for merch, event tickets and other resources

[S2] EPISODE 28: DON'T LEAVE A MESS BEHIND

What happens when the baton is passed to us and we’re not ready to carry it? In this conversation with the incredibly grounded and eloquent Caskey Ndaba, we talk about what it means to become the uncles, the fathers, the leaders we once looked up to. From drafting a will to defining a family vision, we wrestle with the reality of death, not in fear, but in wisdom. Caskey reminds us that masculinity is less about the muscle and more about the mind, and that real manhood means planning, preparing, and protecting.

Mr. Ndaba opens up about walking from Diepsloot to Centurion to restart his life after losing everything, including his home and career. He shares how his divorce and later, the tragic loss of his children’s mother, shaped his journey as a father and a husband. These are not just stories, they are scars with purpose. His vulnerability, wrapped in clarity and determination, reminds us that being a husband is not about perfection but about showing up, again and again, even when it hurts.

We don’t just talk policies and funeral plans, we go deeper into the fears, insecurities, and silence that often keep men from leading well. Whether you're a newlywed, a father of three, or a man trying to fix the brokenness you inherited, this episode offers both a mirror and a map. Because in the end, being a husband isn’t just about loving your family, it’s about leaving them ready when you’re no longer here. Let’s talk legacy, leadership, and love—because silence is no longer an option.

July 23, 2025 ⁠Why Getting Married In Your 30's Doesn't Make You More Ready | Sbu Dube
Visit www.thathusband.com for merch, event tickets and other resources

[S2] EPISODE 27: CALLED TO BE PRESENT, NOT PERFECT!

This week we sit down with Sbu Dube, for a heartfelt conversation where he opens up about the sacred moment he chose to love not just his wife, but her child too. He shares the weighty but beautiful decision of stepping into marriage with intention, not as a rescue plan, but as a reflection of Christ’s love for the Church. With honesty and humility, he reminds us that becoming a husband isn’t about perfection, but instead, it’s about presence, sacrifice, and a willingness to grow.

Together, we explore the quiet fears that fathers often carry, the pressure to get marriage “right,” and how grace makes space for dreams to flourish in the home. Sbu's story takes us through his upbringing in a family that modeled long-term commitment, the lessons he gleaned from watching his father provide with silent strength, and how he carries those values into raising his own children. From changing nappies with trembling hands to the sacred joy of baptising his daughter, Sbu reveals that fatherhood isn’t just a title, it’s a calling, and sometimes, it starts the moment you say "I do."

Whether you’re in the thick of raising young children, navigating a busy work-life balance, or wrestling with the tension between dreams and duty, this episode will remind you that you’re not alone. It's a call to stay home, not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually. Because being a husband and father is less about doing everything right, and more about being right there when it matters most.

[S2] EPISODE 26: BE THE HUSBAND YOU ENVISIONED

What does it mean to be a husband in a world that’s constantly shifting its standards? In this episode, we sit with Tshepo Hlongwane, not just to talk about marriage, but to reflect on the weight and wonder of this sacred calling. From the lessons of mentorship, the quiet strength found in friendship with your spouse, to the spiritual responsibility of protecting your family, not just from physical harm but from the subtle spiritual battles, we leave no stone unturned. This is a conversation about choosing to show up even when it's hard, about repentance before repair, and about seeing your wife as a friend before a role.

We dive into the real stuff. What happens when you're called to lead but feel underqualified? When your personal wiring clashes with your spouse's? When your dreams won’t let you rest? This episode unpacks how men can steward their marriages, their emotions, and their faith without letting shame or culture dictate the pace. Through laughter, conviction, and layered storytelling, this isn’t just theory, it’s lived experience. Blaque & Tshepo, wrestle with the everyday decisions that shape the men they become at home.

If you're a husband who’s ever asked, "Am I doing enough? Am I becoming who God called me to be?", this episode is for you. Whether you’re newlywed, ten years deep, or just dreaming of what kind of husband you want to be, this conversation will meet you where you are. And it will push you, gently, intentionally, toward growth, friendship, and spiritual clarity. This is not just a podcast, it’s a mirror, it's a map, and it's a call to step up.
