About this episode

Dennis and Josh reflect on their experiences as fathers, discussing challenges and lessons learned as their children grow up.

This Father's Day week, we're doing something we've never done before. For the first time in Back 9 history, we have a full episode with just the two of us. No guest. No expert. No one else to play off of… It's just two guys sitting across from each other talking about what it feels like with our kids grown and living on their own, and looking back at the fathers we tried to be. We talk about raising daughters and the ways they challenged us, changed us, and taught us things we never expected to learn. We revisit divorce, long-distance parenting, the moments we got right, and the moments we'd give anything to do over. There are stories in this episode we've never shared before. Some are funny. Some are raw. Several still make us emotional all these years later. If you've ever wondered whether you did enough as a parent, if you've carried regret, or if you're trying to build a stronger relationship with your kids today than you had yesterday, this one's for you. Happy Father's Day from The Back 9. Contact Dennis & Josh Instagram: @Back9_Podcast Our sponsor Hammer and Nails, is currently offering a $120 gift card for $100.
