If you're in the middle of a divorce, or thinking about divorce right now, you need to listen to this episode. Not after it's over. Not when you've figured everything out. Right. Now.

Geoff Fountain is in the middle of an 18-year relationship that is coming to an end. Two kids. A shared life. And now he's rewriting his future. And at one point, Geoff turns the tables and starts asking us questions. Questions we've both had to answer ourselves.

How do you know you're doing the right thing?
What gets easier?
What do you wish you had known?

There are no villains in this story. It's ust an honest conversation about marriage, divorce, co-parenting, uncertainty, and what comes next.

For any man trying to navigate one of the hardest seasons of his life, this is a conversation worth hearing.

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.

Season 13 starts with an announcement:

Over the past year, we've been building something bigger than a podcast — a book about how men heal, rebuild, and find healthy relationships after midlife divorce. It's now in front of major publishers, and the response has reinforced something we've believed from the beginning: Men need hope.

This season will continue that conversation through stories about relationships, fatherhood, purpose, health, and second chances.We also talk summer plans, Bills vs. Bears, engagement parties, the strange ways sports loyalty gets passed through families, and our partnership with Hammer & Nails.

A new season. A lot in motion.

Time to make the turn.
