Welcome back to the Culture Maker podcast. It's great to have you with me. If you haven't met me before, my name is Mike Edwards, and this is a podcast that's all about helping dads create healthy cultures in their homes. Today Is all about RESPECT and how men want to live like a lion and be respected at home.

Welcome back to the Culture Maker podcast. I have a great episode for you today. It's called eye candy and brain decay. Today we are going to learn all about testosterone, the role it plays and how men are triggered, sexually.
We're also going to discuss how this is a problem for most men, especially when it drives addiction. And then we're going to look at how porn actually reduces our vision and look at a strategy we can all adopt to keep our heads clear and focused on our big goals.
It's a bit uncomfortable for some, but if you are a guy who cares about bright visions, big dreams, and leading a big life, then this is a topic you're definitely going to enjoy today.
So let's get into it. -
Hey, welcome back to the Culture Maker podcast, the podcast that's all about helping men create healthy cultures in their homes. It's great to have you with me. If you haven't met me before, my name is Mike Edwards, and today's podcast is called Serendipitous Sex.

Welcome to the Culture Maker podcast, the podcast that's all about helping dads lead well at home. Today is the third episode that I've done that's all about helping us see the things in our homes that need to change, so that we can create the homes that we all want to come home to.
Often we're disappointed with how our homes feel. We're unaware of how our reactions, and how we are engaging are affecting the people around us. We are in control of the man that we're making and we need to get in control so that we can create a better feeling culture for us, our partner and our kids -
Welcome back to the Culture Maker podcast. It's great to have you with me. If you haven't met me before, my name is Mike Edwards, and this is a podcast that's all about helping dads create healthy cultures in their homes. Today I'm actually taking you to church... I was asked recently to speak at my church, and so I did a message on how we can create healthy cultures inside of our homes as men and the importance of that. If you normally don't go to church, that's fine. I think you'll still be challenged and inspired by this message. I hope you enjoy it.

Welcome to the Culture Maker podcast. It's great to have you with me! Culture Maker is the podcast that's all about helping dads lead well at home. And last week I introduced shame and how shame is present in each of our homes. And this is a special bonus episode where I encourage us to step out of The Matrix. That is the way that we currently lead, and to take the red pill, which will reveal to us a whole new world of leadership at home.
So this is a fun little bonus episode and I hope you enjoy it. -
Welcome to the Culture Maker podcast — the podcast that's all about helping dads lead well at home. And today I'd like you to meet shame. Not a guy called Shane, but a thing called Shame. It's not a thing we think about much but it is hiding in your home and it's affecting your leadership. Today we're going to meet shame and it's going to change the way we lead.
Let's get into it! -

Today I am interviewing, a guy by the name of Paul Stanyer. Paul is an incredible guy who runs an addiction recovery program called Recovery, and it's tremendously effective. As far as I understand the results are off the charts compared to other sort of comparative programs around the country and New Zealand at least. And we hear about Paul's, personal story as well as the story of others in recovery, and the effectiveness of the recovery program. We talk about the spiritual aspect and the importance, and its role in the effectiveness of recovery.
Enjoy!

Today I interview a really, neat guy, called, Jay Geldard. Jay, runs a charity trust, called E Tū Tāngata. And it's all about, changing the way we think about ourselves. It's about the negative talk in our lives and the Tall Poppy Syndrome that we all suffer from. So his aim is to really, challenge that and to help us to challenge it. He's also got a great book, which we can even read to our kids that'll help our kids, change the story they tell themselves about themselves.
Enjoy!

Hey everyone. Welcome back to the Culture Maker Channel. It's great to have you here. Today I am interviewing Frank Richie. Frank is a news Talk ZB radio host on Sundays at six here in New Zealand.
He's a media chaplain. And he runs a church. He's a pastor of a church. So he's a busy man. Today we talk basically around the need for men to talk to other men. I think we all acknowledge our need for men to talk. And we just talk about that today.
It's challenging and it's encouraging and it'll help us in both our work and our family. So, let's get into it. -
Being a dad is tricky, I know for the ladies listening, being a mum is tricky as well, in-fact, that's an understatement, there is no dad alive that wants your job.
But what does it mean to be a dad and why don't we talk about it more. What is a dads job description?
This stuff is tricky, because us dads need things kept simple - we don't like complicated. You know, we just want to know what to do.
We want to know what our job is.
We also don't want to go to parenting courses. We think that a parenting course is just going to make us feel small and useless and we already know we could be doing better we just don't want to find out how, we don't like this idea of knowing that we're no good. Parenting courses just grate against everything that we are.
So how do we work out our job description?
And what about if we're separated or divorced. Anything we could learn in a parenting course pretty much goes out the window when we're no longer living with our kids.
How do we parent then?
Or for those that are living with the mother of our kids, how do we help our partners filter all the parenting philosophies being thrown at uthem by social media and work out what is right for us as a family?
And perhaps bigger then all of this is that us dads need something that inspires us.
We need something big that inspires us to lead well at home.
We need that, we need inspiration. We need some big idea that's simple enough to grab us and help us to be what we need to be.
Well dads, that's what we are talking about today.
In today's episode I am going to present you with a very simple idea that will set you up for success as a dad — Hi, I’m Mike Edwards and I want to welcome you to the Culture Maker Podcast. The leadership podcast for dads.

What makes a good dad? My answer might surprise you. It’s not about being a masculine dad. It’s not about being the provider. It’s not about the amount of time spent with your kids or even being in the same home. Rich dad, poor dad — the outcomes are the same. And being a good dad doesn’t necesarily end with divorce.
I’ve been deep diving into dozens of research papers on fatherhood and this weeks podcast is a quick summary of the results.
Enjoy my last podcast for 2022.

In this episode we look at why the Anti Smacking Law in NZ hasn’t worked — whilst digging into the real issues in our homes.
The main question I ask is: If the anti smacking law was meant to make our homes look brighter — then why do things feel so dark?
