Men Don't Run in the Rain: Lessons from Rick Burgess (and other dads)
New episode of Spiritual Brain Surgery, and early ad-free video access for paid subscribers!
Good morning my friend!
I’m excited about today’s episode of Spiritual Brain Surgery! Last week, I had a chance to speak with Rick Burgess, New York Times bestselling author and celebrated radio host (Rick and Bubba, The Rick Burgess Show).
Rick has a new book about his dad Bill, called Men Don't Run in the Rain. I learned so much from Rick’s book that I was inspired to make an entire episode of Spiritual Brain Surgery to make sure we mined as much good stuff as possible from the conversation. Today’s episode is a prequel to the full interview, which will be released on 5/30/2025 on The Self-Brain Surgery Podcast.
Here’s my favorite clip, as a teaser to Friday’s conversation!
Today, I give you five lessons I learned from my conversation with Rick. And paid subscribers can watch the entire conversation early and ad-free at the bottom of this post!
