Let's be honest, most men drift. We wake up, we scroll, we work, and then we just rinse and repeat,

and we know we're softer than we should be. That's why I built the 31-day resilience reset.

This is not a devotional. It is a field manual for men ready to stop drifting and start fighting back.

So for 31 days, you'll train your spirit, mind, and body with scripture, prayer, and daily challenges

that forge real resilience. Go to www.undaunted.combe, www.org, slash 31 days to download

this resource for free. That's undaunted.combe, life slash 31 days. your reset today this is on This is Undaunted Life, a man's podcast.

I'm your host Kyle Thompson.

Let's get into it.

All right, guys, we've got a special guest on the podcast today.

His name is Bailey Chase.

He is a professional actor and has been an actor for a very, very long time.

You'll probably recognize him from his role in Longmire, but also he's been in saving grace and damages and Buffy the Vampire Slayer back in the day.

And then he's on the new Angel series called Homestead.

So last year I talked with Neil McDonough and Ben Smallbone, so they were both involved with that project.

And so we've had a lot of angel people on this podcast before, and that's an awesome new show that they have. So you guys are experiencing season one, or if you haven't gone there yet, you've got the movie there at the beginning and then the rest of season one. But as of the filming of this podcast, it was a day after the Super Bowl and the day he was flying out to Utah to start

a three months shoot for season two of the show. And so I really enjoyed talking to him. He and I hit it off off air. He's a two-stripe white belt and jiu-jitsu, so he's got, you know, the bluebelt blues in his very, very near future. But for him, this is a guy he grew up without his father. and you know we talk a lot about that right at the beginning you know it even got a little bit

emotional there at the

beginning. You know, it even got a little bit emotional there at the beginning about, hey, you were always drawn to acting as a boy. How does that attach to, you know, you're not having your father because if you know anyone or if you were a guy who'd never had your father around in a lot of ways you're acting. You're acting like things are okay. You're acting like this is normal and feels

fine. Oh, it's just fine having a single mom and that's the only real person in your life of any value. Like, I mean, it was tough for him and it's tough for a lot of you guys out there. So we talk about that. And then he eventually goes on to play football at Duke on a scholarship and then, you know, we talk about his transition to Hollywood, getting into acting.

How do you even break into acting? What is kind of the trick to doing all of that? But then eventually

he kind of had this, you know, around the COVID time, it's like he had kind of seen that L.A.
