This is for the fathers who refuse to disappear. Hosted by Randall Keith, founder of the Present Father movement, this show breaks down what really happens when men step into family court, high-conflict custody, and the fight to stay in their children’s lives. No sugarcoating. No “just stay positive” advice. Just real conversations about: • navigating a system that doesn’t reward good fathers • staying calm when everything is designed to provoke you • building the kind of consistency that can’t be ignored • and what it actually takes to stay present when it would be easier to quit Some episodes are raw solo breakdowns. Some are real stories from fathers in the fight. Some are conversations with people who’ve seen the system from the inside. If you’re a father who feels like you’re being erased… You’re not alone. And you’re not done.

    "Every Other Weekend" Is Destroying Fathers.

    Most people think family court is built to protect children. What if the system is actually tearing families apart instead? In this episode of The Present Father Show, I sit down with Rachel Marshall, also known as Father’s Advocate Mom and creator of Dead Beat Dad By Design, for one of the most raw and emotional conversations we’ve had yet. Rachel is a mother, bonus mom, former pediatric psych nurse, and outspoken advocate for fathers navigating high-conflict custody battles, parental alienation, false allegations, and the emotional toll family court can take on parents and children. We discuss: Why fathers are conditioned to accept “every other weekend”False allegations and protection order abuseThe mental health crisis affecting fathersHow parental alienation damages childrenWhy good dads are being pushed out of their kids’ livesLitigation abuse and financial devastationThe role of bonus moms during custody battlesWhat Rachel witnessed firsthand working in pediatric psychWhy children need both parentsThis episode is emotional, uncomfortable at times, and brutally honest. If you’re fighting to stay present in your child’s life, this conversation will hit home.

    Family Law Attorney with 27+ years of experince (David Pisarra)

    Most fathers don’t lose their kids because they’re bad dads… they lose because they don’t understand how family court actually works. In this episode, I sit down with David Pisarra—a family law attorney with over 27 years of experience and the creator of Dads Law School—to break down what’s really happening inside the system. We talk about: How false allegations can flip a case overnightWhy “being a good dad” isn’t enough in courtThe low standard of proof that can cost you everythingThe biggest mistakes men make before they ever step in front of a judgeAnd how to actually prepare yourself if you’re fighting for your kidsThis isn’t theory. This is real-world strategy from someone who’s seen it play out thousands of times… and from a father who’s lived it. If you’re in a custody battle, thinking about one, or trying to make sense of what you’re going through—this episode will open your eyes. 🎧 Listen all the way through. This could change how you approach your case.

    Robert Garza: A man on a mission!

    Robert Garza spent 16 years fighting family court… and now he’s changing the laws. Everyone talks about how broken the system is… Almost nobody is doing anything to fix it. This conversation is different. We’re not just exposing the problem… we’re talking about real solutions that are already passing in multiple states. If you’re in this fight, you need to hear this.
