Paul and Danny bring their usual “normal guys podcasting” energy: roasting Paul’s questionable style (holiday haircuts, yellow corduroy, and “I love DoorDash—I’ve used it twice”) and his habit of greeting everyone like he’s employed by Hy-Vee. Then the chaos swerves into something real—why following Jesus was never meant to be done solo. They walk through Acts 2 and the power of church/community as guardrails that keep you from isolation, spiraling thoughts, and believing lies. Somehow they land the plane with a prayer, a reminder that people may hurt you but God didn’t, and a final callback to “trust people… and stop being weird in the meat department.”

Two normal guys (who “laugh until we overfill?”) spiral from a hilarious story about things kids say into a crash course on parenting, boundaries, and why threatening “no screens all weekend” can help everyone get more sleep.

Between coffee addiction confessions, NFL-style intensity debates, and some wild jokes, they accidentally stumble into something real: stop stressing, surrender the control, and trust God to provide (yes, even for your bank account).

If birds aren’t panicking and they still get fed, you can probably unclench and hand God the keys and see what happens.

Paul and Danny discuss pre-workout induced invincibility, whether 4th-grade touchdowns count like Super Bowl ones, and why racing a college runner in a hotel hallway is a spiritually humbling experience (RIP hamstring). Somewhere between homeschool basketball lore, “sports goggles,” and a flooded house meltdown, they land on a real takeaway: stop overcomplicating faith and just spend consistent time with Jesus.

Danny roasts Paul for calling himself a “normal guy on a podcast,” his 20-month Achilles “rehab,” marathon delusions, TV-less marriage, and belief that the Spurs only won titles because of an NBA ref conspiracy. Between bad Nebraska predictions, bouncing between NFL bandwagons, and Hall-of-Fame level Paulisms, they get honest about getting absolutely rocked by life, business, anxiety, and hidden sin while trying to follow Jesus. Rooted in Exodus 14:14, this episode is all about a God who keeps rescuing two very imperfect guys—and anyone else who’s tired, disappointed, or wondering if He’ll really show up for them.

Former NFL running back Danny Woodhead and his business partner / former pee-wee legend Paul Lanphier launch their as-yet-unnamed podcast. Danny roasts Paul’s delusional glory days and his flag football achilles tear, among other bad decisions. In between Paul’s insane sports takes and Nebraska predictions that don’t math, they actually get real — talking about Danny’s unlikely NFL journey, retirement and anxiety, Paul’s winding path through nursing, ministry, grief, and entrepreneurship, and how Jesus met them in all of it. At its core, this show is two business guys / pastors who love Jesus, sports, and people, trying to live fully known, laugh at themselves, and maybe help one person find some hope along the way.
