There’s truly no manual for love, marriage, and parenting — especially after kids enter the picture.

In this episode of Ain’t No Manual, the guys dive deep into Love, Life & Late Nights, having an honest, unfiltered conversation about marriage after kids, intimacy struggles, therapy, mental health, and what it really takes to keep love alive.

From missing anniversaries and interrupted intimacy to jealousy, exhaustion, and learning how to prioritize your partner again, this episode speaks directly to parents and couples who feel stretched thin but still want their relationship to survive — and thrive.

We talk about:

• Why kids don’t “fix” relationships
• How parenting strains intimacy and connection
• The importance of therapy (especially for men)
• Finding balance between marriage and parenting
• Why intentional time matters more than grand gestures
• Relearning how to choose your partner again

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, unseen, or disconnected in your relationship — this conversation is for you.

🎧 Listen. Reflect. Share.
Because love doesn’t come with instructions.

Ain’t No Manual Podcast — Episode: “Who Taught You How to Be a Man?”

In this candid episode, the Ain’t No Manual hosts, Trey, Ron, and Chris break down the real influences that shaped them — from fathers and coaches to music, peers, and Atlanta culture. They explore how manhood is learned, where it goes wrong, and what today’s kids are facing in a world of AI and social media.
A layered, honest, hilarious, and heartfelt conversation every man (and parent) needs.

This episode is layered, real, vulnerable, and hilarious but also deeply important.

Ain’t No Manual - we’re figuring it out together.

In Episode 3, we break down what we call The Dad Playbook - the lessons, mindset shifts, and real-life strategies men wish they were taught long before becoming fathers.

From providing and protecting to navigating relationships, mental health, discipline, consistency, and showing up for your kids even when life is heavy… this episode is filled with the conversations we didn’t grow up hearing enough.

We talk about:
• The values every father needs
• How to parent with intention
• Leading with patience, presence, and purpose
• Breaking generational habits
• What men really struggle with but rarely say
• How to build your “fatherhood foundation”
• Why fatherhood doesn’t come with a manual - but it should come with a playbook

This episode is honest, reflective, and packed with the wisdom today’s fathers AND future fathers need.

Featuring Trey (father of 8), Ron (father of 2 + grandfather of 1), and Chris (father of 5)
Special Guest: Adarius “Dee” Adams - father, creator, and co-host of Dads With No Skript

On our second episode- dropping Thanksgiving Day- we sit down with our first official guest, Adarius “Dee” Adams, a father of two, oldest of seven, entrepreneur, creator, and a man who has lived enough chapters for ten lives.

For nearly two decades, Dee has balanced fatherhood, two divorces, running a home & car customization business, and 21 years in the power industry. His journey walks through responsibility, reinvention, and showing up as a man even when life throws the manual away.

In this raw, funny, and honest conversation, we dig into:

• Growing up as the oldest of seven
• Being raised by his dad and supported by two step-mothers
• Lessons learned from marriage, co-parenting, and divorce
• How fitness became therapy
• Why he started Dads With No Skript
• Building confidence by “doing it scared”
• Leadership, legacy, and fatherhood without a blueprint

Dee lives by the motto:
“Dee don’t know what he be doing, but he gonna do it anyway.”
And after this episode… you’ll understand exactly why that energy is needed in fatherhood and in life.

Tap in, laugh, think, and get ready for a powerful Thanksgiving drop.

Subscribe & follow Ain’t No Manual for more real conversations about fatherhood, family, growth, and men stepping into who they truly are.

There’s no handbook for fatherhood. No step-by-step guide for manhood. No blueprint for how to lead a family, heal from your past, show up with love, or navigate the pressure that comes with being a man today. But there is a space where we can talk about it. Honestly. Openly. Without judgment.
Welcome to Ain’t No Manual — the podcast built for fathers, father-figures, blended families, husbands, partners, leaders, and every man trying to grow while doing the most important work of his life.

In this very first episode, hosts Trey, Ron, and Chris break down:

• Why this podcast exists
• The real stories and lived experiences that inspired it
• What men are really carrying that they rarely get space to talk about
• The pressures of showing up for your family while navigating your own healing
• The importance of community, support, and safe conversations among men
• What to expect in future episodes — from mental health to co-parenting to blended families, relationships, wellness, purpose, and everything in between

This intro sets the tone for what’s coming: authenticity, vulnerability, laughter, truth, and real-life fatherhood. No filters. No ego. No pretending.

If you’re a father, thinking about becoming one, or you simply care about building stronger families and better men — you’re in the right place.

Because at the end of the day… Ain’t No Manual.
But together, we can figure it out.
