Dad Tired

What would you do if $5 million was on the line?
In this episode, Jerrad sits down with Beast Games runner-up Cory Sims — the fan favorite who captured hearts by refusing to compromise his faith and integrity.
Cory shares what it was like to:
• Compete for 42 days without phones or outside contact
• Face life-changing decisions with $5 million on the line
• Lose the final challenge — and discover God had a bigger plan
We also talk about fatherhood, faith under pressure, and the surprising lesson Cory learned after walking away without the money.
Turns out… some things are worth more than $5 million.

What is Dad Tired?

You’re tired.
Not just physically; though yeah, that too.
You’re tired in your bones. In your soul.
Trying to be a steady husband, an intentional dad, a man of God… but deep down, you feel like you’re falling short. Like you’re carrying more than you know how to hold.

Dad Tired is a podcast for men who are ready to stop pretending and start healing.
Not with self-help tips or religious platitudes, but by anchoring their lives in something (and Someone) stronger.

Hosted by Jerrad Lopes, a husband, dad of four, and fellow struggler, this show is a weekly invitation to find rest for your soul, clarity for your calling, and the courage to lead your family well.

Through honest stories, biblical truth, and deep conversations you’ll be reminded:

You’re not alone. You’re not too far gone. And the man you want to be is only found in Jesus.

This isn’t about trying harder.
It’s about coming home.
