Hey, welcome back. This episode is long overdue for my two guests. It's about our fathers and a father's

betrayal. Now, I think of Ephesians, honor thy father and mother. I think of my own biological father, who my mother informed me was in prison at the time of my birth.

I think of finding out later in life that he was a criminal and a drug dealer in Kansas City.

When my brother ended up meeting him, his path into darkness took a turn for the

worse because he was already using drugs and whatnot.

And it just goes to show how much influence a father can have on a child's life.

I have found myself in a more father figure role

and realize how much of an impact

all my words and actions have

on the people around me and the people that look up to me.

So it's really important to be a good father, to be a good parent, and to do everything to

raise your child with the proper care and advice, direction.

And the argument of nature versus nurture,

I think nature can win out a lot of the time,

but nurture can destroy.

My first guest finds out a secret about her father

that he can no longer keep. Just a forewarning,

my guest covers some sensitive topics, which might not be safe for work. Thank you so much

for making it today. It was all the times we were suggesting it was like 2.30 in the morning

for me. I'm like, well, I'm not going to work.

Yeah, I know. Just saying, we live next to a winery, so you may hear some gas guns going off. It's not a shooting. It's trying to keep birds off the grapes.

Oh, okay. So that's what people use guns for over there.
