6.5. Timeout: Let's Catch Our Breath

Send us Fan MailGetting Back Up: Finding Life After Death  (Season 1)Episode 6.5:  Timeout: Let's Catch Our Breath In this special episode, Jamal and Dave reflect on the first six episodes of Getting Back Up: Finding Life After Death. From their origin stories to the passing of their wives, the journey so far has been raw, emotional, and deeply personal.But before diving into what comes next—those quiet moments, the loneliness, the pressure to move on—they’re taking a timeout.  Behind-the-scenes stories, emotional surprises, laughs, and a look at what’s coming next.Whether you’re just tuning in or have been riding with us since day one, this is the perfect reset before we go deeper.Getting Back Up: Finding Life After Death is a podcast that explores the raw, unfiltered reality of surviving profound personal loss—and finding a way forward.  The idea for the podcast was born after David and Jamal met in 2023. Both widowers, who had lost their wives to cancer, quickly found a deep connection through multiple conversations about pain, perseverance, and parenthood. They realized that while men often bond over music, sports, or TV, they rarely speak candidly about loss or emotional recovery. Getting Back Up was created to change that narrative—blending the everyday with the existential in a format that’s as relatable as it is real. Thank you for your support!Hosts: David McClain & Jamal JonesExecutive Directors: Marlon Jackson & Ted Winners (Like A Gazelle Productions)Editing: Steve Senisi (Reel Media)Music: Grenada, "Treasure" McDonald, Otis, "Phife for Life", http://www.otismacmusic.comThank you for listening!
