  • Ep. 79 An Unbeliever's Guide to Christianity: What Every Man Needs to Know Before He Dies
    Jun 7 2026

    What if Christianity is true?

    Not helpful. Not inspiring. Not comforting.

    True.

    In this special Sunday episode of The Alpha Edge Podcast, Coach Kevin speaks directly to skeptics, doubters, agnostics, atheists, and men who have never seriously examined the claims of Christianity for themselves.

    This is not a debate. It's not a political discussion. And it's not about religion.

    It's about truth.

    Together, we'll explore the most important questions a man can ask:

    Does God exist?

    Is the Bible trustworthy?

    Who was Jesus really?

    What does Christianity actually teach about salvation?

    What's the difference between religion and a relationship with God?

    Why does Jesus demand a response from every man?

    And what does it mean to make Jesus both Savior and Lord?

    Whether you've spent your entire life in church or you've spent years rejecting Christianity, this episode challenges you to honestly investigate the claims of Christ for yourself.

    Because at the end of the day, the most important question you'll ever answer isn't political, financial, or even physical.

    It's spiritual.

    Who do YOU say Jesus is?

    Key Takeaways

    Truth does not require our approval.

    Christianity isn't man's attempt to reach God. Christianity is God's rescue mission to reach man.

    Jesus didn't come to make bad men good. He came to make dead men alive.

    Every man must eventually answer the same question Jesus asked 2,000 years ago: "Who do you say that I am?"

    The strongest thing a man can ever do is surrender his life to Jesus Christ.

    Scriptures Mentioned

    • Isaiah 55:8-9
    • Matthew 16:13-17
    • John 3:16
    • Romans 3:23
    • Ephesians 2:8-9
    • Romans 10:13
    • 2 Corinthians 5:17

    If this episode raised questions for you, start by reading the Gospel of John with an open mind and an honest heart.

    Ask yourself one question:

    "Is this true?"

    And don't be afraid to bring your doubts, questions, and concerns directly to God in prayer.

  • Ep. 78 - At 61, I Walked Into a Jiu Jitsu Gym… and It Changed My Life
    May 22 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    What happens when a 61-year-old man with zero martial arts experience walks into a Brazilian jiu jitsu gym for the very first time?


    Apparently… he gets smashed, humbled, exhausted, mildly traumatized… and completely hooked.

    In this episode of The Alpha Edge Podcast, Coach Kevin shares the story of stepping onto the mats for the first time at age 61 — and why learning jiu jitsu became one of the most impactful decisions of his life.

    This isn’t really an episode about fighting.

    It’s an episode about challenge.

    Brotherhood.

    Growth.

    Confidence.

    Humility.

    And refusing to mentally retire after 50.

    Kevin opens up about:

    • The intimidation of starting something completely new later in life
    • Showing up to his first class wearing the wrong clothes
    • Getting repeatedly tapped out by younger men
    • Experiencing real panic and discomfort during live rounds
    • Why modern men desperately need hard things again
    • The power of brotherhood and shared struggle
    • How martial arts build confidence, resilience, and composure under pressure
    • Why becoming “dangerous” is different than becoming aggressive
    • The surprising crossover benefits jiu jitsu can have on energy, vitality, and swagger
    • How men over 50 can start martial arts safely and intelligently
    • Why you are NOT too old to begin again

    Whether you’ve secretly thought about trying jiu jitsu, boxing, Muay Thai, or any other martial art — or whether you simply feel stuck, stagnant, or disconnected from challenge — this episode is a call to step back into growth.

    Because your best years are NOT automatically behind you.

    You are still allowed to evolve.

    Still allowed to struggle.

    Still allowed to become stronger.

    Still allowed to surprise yourself.

    And maybe your next great adventure starts the moment you stop talking yourself out of it.

    Listener Challenge

    This week, visit a martial arts gym. Watch a class. Talk to the coaches. Try a beginner session.

    Go become a beginner again.

    You might rediscover a part of yourself that’s been waiting a long time to come back to life.

    And if you do – shoot me an email and let me know how it goes. I’m at kevin@alphaedgearmy.com

  • Ep. 77 Why So Many Men Never Become Men
    May 15 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    Men are struggling.

    Not just physically.
    Not just financially.
    But spiritually, emotionally, and developmentally.

    In this powerful and deeply personal episode of The Alpha Edge Podcast, Coach Kevin tackles one of the most uncomfortable — and important — conversations in modern culture:

    Why do so many males today reach adulthood… without ever truly becoming men?

    This is NOT another angry “manosphere” rant.
    And it’s definitely not an attack on women.

    Instead, this episode explores the growing imbalance between masculine and feminine energy in modern culture — and the devastating consequences of fatherlessness, the collapse of masculine initiation, and the disappearance of grounded male leadership.

    Coach Kevin shares his own story of growing up in a divorced household, becoming dependent on female validation, and struggling to understand what authentic masculinity actually looked like.

    Along the way, he breaks down:

    • The fatherlessness crisis in America
    • Why boys desperately need masculine mentorship
    • The feminization of modern institutions
    • The cultural suppression of masculine traits
    • Why initiation into manhood has disappeared
    • The difference between healthy masculinity and toxic masculinity
    • Why so many modern men feel lost, passive, anxious, and directionless
    • What mature masculine leadership should actually look like
    • How strong men can help heal culture without becoming bitter or extreme

    This episode is thoughtful, nuanced, honest, and challenging — especially for men who know deep down they were built for more than comfort, distraction, and passive existence.

    If you’ve ever felt like modern culture is confused about masculinity…
    If you’ve struggled with purpose, validation, passivity, or direction…
    Or if you simply want to become a stronger, steadier, more grounded man…

    …this episode is for you.
