As we jump into this new season, we start talking about our core virtues. We pick up where we left off last week and talk a little more in-depth about what it means to be humble. Does it mean we have to be a door mat? Does it mean we're never aloud to be proud of our accomplishments? Listen in to learn more.  ..read more

In today's episode, we're talking about what it means to be a Level 5 man. You might be familiar with the term "Level 5 leader" from Jim Collins' book, "Good to Great." Well, I think the same principle applies to being a man. What are the two characteristics that take a man from being good to great? Well, listen to today's podcast to find out ..read more

We're starting a new direction as a podcast, and today is the first time we're really starting to talk about it. We're always going to be focused on being the kind of men people remember when we're gone, but today we're going to start looking at what it means to raise men and women in our homes who will be the kind of people others remember. We're going to look at how God intended discipleship to happen in the home, and I'm going to share with you how I've failed at this. If it's not too late for me, it's not too late for you either.  ..read more

Well, the Man They Remember Podcast is a little over a year old now, and I thought that was a good time to stop and refresh our memory on what it means to be a man. At least what it means for us. So in this episode I'm going to give you our definition for masculinity and remind you of the 7 core virtues. But then after that I'm going to do something different. We've talked in the past about the importance of telling stories, so I wanted to do just that - tell you a story from my life.  ..read more

Just like listening seems to be a lost art form, so does focus. We're so used to skimming that we don't read anything deeply. We can't go more than a few minutes without being distracted by our phones. The result is some pretty shallow and insignificant work. What are some simple ways we can improve our focus? Also, Ron joins us on the podcast today and fills us in on his story that started several months ago. You're going to want to hear it!  ..read more

What do you do when the definition for masculinity you've been taught and used your whole life no longer works for you? When your idea of manhood leaves you disappointed and empty where do you go? Why is it that men have such a hard time building relationships with other men? In this episode, I have the privilege of talking with Sean Galla, the founder of mensgroup.com, a site that offers many online groups for men to be able to connect with other men for encouragement, discussion, and training. You'll hear how Sean's definition of masculinity left him with a crisis and how he had to dig deepe ..read more

Have you ever sent someone a text, only to have them respond with a question you literally just answered in the text you just sent? We scroll through over 300 feet of media per day on social media, not to mention all the other content we are consuming. The result of this overly saturated content culture is that it seems that listening has gone the way of the dinosaur. How important is listening? How do we become better listeners? What do we communicate when we listen? Join Robby and I as we dive into the lost art form of listening.  ..read more

Which is more masculine? Working 17 hours a day, driving a jacked-up truck, and drinking all weekend long, or dealing with your emotional insecurities, figuring out your identity, and learning to be a better listener with your wife? On today's podcast, I'm talking with Michael LaRoque, who has 20 years of experience in construction where he earned a nationwide leadership award. He has walked through addiction, mental health, and relationship struggles nearly calling it quits with his wife Laura after 4 years. Today he's encouraging men to take charge of their lives physically, mentally, emotio ..read more

It's one of those words we don't want to talk about. We know we tend to get them out of whack, but we'd rather not mention it. I'll pass on the guilt trip this time, thank you very much. And yet, priorities can be one of those things that keep us from being the kind of man people will remember when we're gone. So, if we want to get to the end of our lives and be able to look back with pride, we need to learn how to put the things that ought to be first, first.  ..read more

Last week we talked about humor, this week we are talking about the power of stories. We talk about the stories that are being told all around us every day in various forms of media. But then we take a turn and talk about the stories we tell. Not only are humans story-hungry beings, we are living stories. Unfortunately, as we have seen technology advance, the art of storytelling has diminished. But, do we as men have a responsibility to tell stories? In this episode, I'm joined by my cousin and friend, Brian Dorsey, as we talk about the power of stories.  ..read more
