Dad the Man — Kids & Family
Dad the Man

Do you have the skills you need to love and lead your family from the front?

My name is Brendan Wall. I am a father of four and married to my best friend. I started this podcast not because I have all the answers, but because I am in search of them. We have one opportunity to be the best men, husbands, and fathers that we can be, and I plan to seize it.

At DAD THE MAN we interview guys we all know and admire professionally, but more importantly, are setting the tone for what a great man, husband, and father looks like. Guys who seize the opportunity before them to love and lead their families from the front, from a place of opportunity not obligation. This is Dad the Man. This is who we all aspire to become. Every single week, you can expect to hear from household names like JORDAN SPIETH, TIM KENNEDY, ERIC DECKER, SEAN LOWE, STIPE MIOCIC, DAVID MELTZER, DR MICHAEL GERVAIS, STAN EFFERDING, MARK BELL, DREW MANNING, DR JOSH AXE, DR JOHN DELONY, ROBB WOLF, JASON KHALIPA, TODD ABRAMS, LEW CARALLA, BERT SORIN, JOHN ELDREDGE, HEATH EVANS, DANIEL CARLSON, YOGI ROTH, PETER BURNS, CARLOS REYES, and many more represent what DAD THE MAN stands for.

As men, husbands, and fathers, we experience and struggle with so many of the same things, and it’s time we recognize that we are all in this together. If you are looking for more purpose, passion, connection, success, and camaraderie in your life, then you are in the right place.

Welcome to DAD THE MAN

RICH FRONING is considered by many to be the greatest CrossFit athlete of all time. He won the CrossFit games, earning the title of "Fittest Man on Earth," in 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014. He also led his team, CrossFit Mayhem, to first place team finishes in 2015, 2016, 2018, 2019, 2021, and 2022. So ya, he's been a 1st place finisher at the CrossFit games damn near every year since he started. Rich is known not only for his athletic achievements, but also for his faith. He has Galatians 6:14 tattooed on his side - "As for me, may I never boast about anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ." Rich is one of those guys with a gravitational pull. Even just talking to him or following him on social media will inspire you to be a better version of yourself. He's an incredible man, husband, and father, and it was an honor to host him on our show.

Adrian is the founder of the men's coaching program called Men of Bedrock. He's a husband, he's a dad, he's a teacher, and he's been a big supporter of me and this show over the last year or two. He's someone I've learned from both directly and just from following him and his content on instagram. He's a guy that I have a ton of respect for. Its easy to talk the talk but he walks the walk and sets a great example for the rest of us to follow. He's a man of faith and he doesn't shy away from it. I love that about him. I think so highly of Adrian and I'm honored to have him on the show.
