Uncommon: The DadWork Podcast

There comes a time in every man's life when he must get butt-a$$ naked, look in the mirror, and ask himself, "Is the reflection looking back at me the example that I want for my children?"

When we STRIP AWAY the extras -- our clothing, our jewelry, our technology, the hobbies we identify ourselves with -- we come face to face with who we REALLY are.

For many of us, we're confronted with a sobering realization: that we have no clue who we really are at our deepest core.
And secondly, that we've never really been TRULY present or truly connected to those who we love the most. We’ve never been truly HERE. And our wives, our kids, and our lives are suffering because of that.

Tune in for this episode with @thewyldmen as we dive DEEP into stripping away the layers to come face to face with our true self, the true present, and our true potential in the world.

This conversation is a WYLD ride, as we dive deep into the value of nudity for men, technology detox, sunning your balls, qi gong, breathwork, sexual health, and MORE.

Just because there's a person in a male body in the house, doesn't mean there's a father in the house.
To be Uncommon Fathers, we must first be Uncommon Men.
We live in a time where what it means to embody manhood and masculinity is controversial and threatening and where the examples of mature manhood are few and far between.
So many men who tell me that they're building an example of fatherhood that's different from what they received from their own dads. Others who didn't have man or father-figure in the house, so they're building it from SCRATCH.
In order to embody the kind of fatherhood that our wives, kids, and families (and hell, the world) need and deserve from us, we must first become powerful men.
🐲What are we up against? Well, DrAgOnS.
In this episode with @StartTheWorld, we dive deep into the work it takes to rise to your fullest potential as a man, how to embody the role of the Stryker, Father, and Lord of The Earth, and the life changing value of joining a Gang of Men.
…and how to train to kill dragons.
At the end of it all, it's on us to be the example we want our sons to grow up to be, and the example that we want our daughters to seek.

It didn't start with you. But it CAN end with you.
As humans, we're tasked with the unfinished business of our parents, who were tasked with the unfinished business of their OWN parents.
As fathers, we have a unique opportunity to heal those wounds, to break our negative patterns, and to write a new story and a new legacy for our kids and for the generations that follow.
And someday, your children's children might sit around a fire, telling the story of the legend within the lineage who recognized those cycles and did the work to break them, heal them, and forge a new legacy for generations to come.
As Uncommon Dads it's our opportunity to RISE as that transitional character in our family's line.
Or, you can hope and pray that your kids figure it out. 🤷‍♂️
In this episode with @coach_victor_robledo , we dive DEEP into generational cycles and the work that's necessary to heal those traumas and write a new story. We discuss the importance -- and inadequacy -- of training alone, the power of holotropic breathwork, and so much more.

Authenticity is the currency of the NEW world. And it’s the foundation of the future that your kids will live in.

We live in an age where our bodies are being poisoned by artificial foods covered in poisonous substances for their "protection" and our minds are being filled with what's important by our "schools", social-media, Disney, and all the various technologies that distract us and extract our awareness, our ESSENCE.

This is the world that our children are about to enter. I can't FATHOM what they're up against. It’s on us as fathers to take back the responsibilities that we’ve abdicated, and to be the example that our children and future generations need us to be.

In this episode with the @certifiedhealthnut , the PsychoChicken of Cyberspace, we explore all of these things AND MORE.

Most importantly, we dive into what's necessary for every man (and every woman) to reconnect to their TRUE NATURE, and to live on their own terms and act on their own authority -- after all, that's what AUTO-HENTES & AUTHENTICITY MEAN.

Oh, and we also talk about slapping and sunning your balls.

If there's anything that we tend to forget as parents is this: parenting -- though challenging -- can be fun as hell, and that our greatest example can be in our ability to have fun and even LAUGH at ourselves.

In this episode with Pat Barber, we dive deep into the importance of becoming both Harder to Kill and Easier to Love, and how we can do exactly that through through snowballing and stacking little habits.

We even explore the practice and impact of meaningful consequences, journaling, and how to actually succeed at not overreacting and yelling at your kids and the surprising impact that the No Yelling Challenge had for Pat.

Just because there's a male in the house doesn't mean there's a man in the house.
In this episode w/ Steve Eckert, we delve deep into what it truly means to BE a man and a father. From rediscovering our purpose to integrating our family into every aspect of our lives, we explore the importance of rhythm and flow over rigid discipline, and the profound impact of our language on shaping the future of our children and generations to come.
We also confront the unfortunate reality that many men have forgotten how to PLAY and HAVE FUN, hindering their ability to live fully and leave a meaningful legacy for their loved ones.

Eliott Hulse has been a leader of men all his life. Hulse holds the perspective that there is a deliberate cultural attack on masculinity orchestrated by individuals aiming to undermine western civilization by devaluing traditional values and roles. He argues that this attack on masculinity is contributing to the breakdown of the family unit and the absence of father figures in society, leading to a lack of meaning and stability. His experiences and background have shaped his belief that the revival of masculinity is crucial for societal rejuvenation and the preservation of western civilization, which he believes can be achieved through a return to traditional family values, strong father figures, and the role of wives in instilling virtuous values within the home.

You can find Elliott Hulse on Youtube, Instagram, and pick up his book "Make Men Strong Again" right here.

Robert Bill Jr, a seasoned professional in the fitness industry, shares his nuanced view on fatherhood, shaped by his personal journey. Raised by a single mother, Jack adopted a stoic persona, often suppressing his emotions. However, he now champions the management of inner emotional states for personal growth and success, underpinned by the principles of brotherhood and mentorship. As a father himself, his experiences with his children have helped him control and balance his emotions. Rob's perspective on fatherhood tackles conventional narratives, rejecting the victim portrayal of fatherhood as a negative experience. He advocates for ownership, integrity, and inner strength cultivation, through practices such as meditation and self-reflection. Rob believes in being a pillar of strength, patience, and presence for his family in the face of modern fatherhood challenges. By intentionally shaping his fatherhood journey and embracing the role with a positive mindset, The Uncommon Dad aims to redefine and uplift the fatherhood experience for himself and future generations.
