Men Don’t Run in the Rain with Rick Burgess

Jun 24, 2025 | The Professional Noticer

On this week’s episode of The Professional Noticer, Andy hosts Rick Burgess — radio host, bestselling author, speaker, and founder of The Man Church.

Tune in to hear Rick share stories and lessons from his father’s coaching legacy, his own journey of faith, and the personal challenges of writing Men Don’t Run in the Rain. Hear him reflect on how his father’s coaching shaped his values, the bond between fathers and sons, and how sports, faith, and family build character—as well as the hardest parts of writing, the wisdom that continues to shape his life, and why old-school values still matter.
