The Good Dude Podcast

The Dudes Ep 4: Unescapable Sauna

In this episode of The Dudes, Jordan, Ben, and George get real about the highs and lows of life, faith, and fatherhood. From bow hunting and skyrocketing gear prices to the raw truth about burnout, depression, and the power of brotherhood, the conversation cuts deep. George shares his struggle with anxiety and the fight to stay resilient, while the guys dive into topics like testosterone, supplements, forgiveness after betrayal, and the impact of losing father figures. They don’t shy away from hard conversations—whether it’s calling out our culture’s celebration of death or reminding men what it means to show up for their families. Honest, unfiltered, and full of brotherly wisdom, this is The Dudes at their most authentic.

Redeemed and Reckless w/ Michael Rutherford

In this powerful conversation, entrepreneur and father of four Michael Rutherford shares how he went from "having it all" to losing everything—business, money, relationships—and finding himself on his knees crying out. What followed was a radical encounter with the Holy Spirit that completely transformed his life.
Michael opens up about weakness, surrender, competition, fatherhood, and what it truly means to be present as a dad. His story is raw, real, and a reminder that what we think disqualifies us often becomes what God uses most.
This episode will challenge men to rethink success, embrace vulnerability, and choose presence over performance.

The Dads "Don't you know that you're TOXIC?"

In this candid and unfiltered conversation, Jordan, Ben, and returning guest Hollow tackle one of the most polarizing topics of our time: toxic masculinity.
Is the word “masculine” being hijacked? Can you be a strong leader in your home without being labeled toxic? The guys break down what healthy masculinity looks like, why strength and empathy can (and should) coexist, and how to set an example for the next generation of men.
From funny real-life stories to hard truths about leadership, teamwork in marriage, and emotional intelligence, this episode challenges the stereotypes while redefining what it means to be a good dude and a good dad.
Whether you agree, disagree, or aren’t sure where you stand, you’ll walk away with a clearer picture of what real manhood looks like in today’s world.
