Every man is fighting one of two battles — becoming his father or proving he’s not him.

In this powerful episode of Failures: The Podcast, Rich and Justin unpack “The Father Wound” — the invisible void left behind when a father is absent, distant, or emotionally unavailable.

They explore how that wound shapes a man’s identity, relationships, anger, and ambition — and how to finally break the cycle. From childhood pain to overcompensation and people-pleasing, to finding forgiveness and building a new legacy, this is one of the most raw and necessary conversations we’ve ever had.
