The moment everything changes. In our first episode, we talk about the raw, unfiltered reality of becoming a parent for the first time. From the emotions that hit you in the delivery room to the quiet moments no one prepares you for — this one’s about those first days, and how they shape us. We also dive into what support really looks like for your partner and the unexpected ways fatherhood challenges and grows you.

Trigger Warning: This episode includes a personal story involving a traumatic birth experience. Listener discretion is advised. (23:45)

Welcome to Father Figure a podcast about modern fatherhood and the men behind it. Hosted by Joe Gonzales and Ricky Bee, we’re unpacking what it means to show up as fathers, partners, and people. No experts here just honest conversations, shared stories, and a space to grow together.

This episode is all about empathy. What it is, when to use it, how to teach it!
