In this episode of The Iron Perspective, JD Denham confronts the dark side of sobriety the part most people never talk about. After nearly 15 years clean, JD has witnessed the heartbreaking truth: many get sober… but few stay sober. He opens up about the friends he’s lost, the funerals he’s attended, and the men who were “on fire” for recovery only to go back out one time and never return.
From the power of early discipline to the danger of drifting away from meetings, mentors, and integrity JD lays out exactly why staying sober requires the same effort that got you sober in the first place. This episode is a wake-up call and a warning for anyone fighting addiction or supporting someone who is.
Addiction is always waiting. But so is redemption if you keep doing the work.

In this episode of The Iron Perspective, JD Denham sits down with the man who raised him his father, Randy Denham for a brutally honest, emotional conversation about fatherhood, legacy, addiction, and redemption.
From growing up in a home for abused children to becoming a heroin addict, JD shares what it was like to spiral into darkness while his dad watched from the sidelines praying, hoping, and holding the line. But this isn’t just about pain it’s about the power of hope, tough love, and generational impact.

In this episode of The Iron Perspective, JD Denham strips away all pretense to deliver one of his most raw and personal reflections yet. With over 14 years of sobriety behind him, JD opens up about the valleys of discipline, the battles with resentment, and the weight of being wounded by those closest to him. From the death of his sponsor to his wife’s relapse to years of betrayal and backstabbing, this is the purge he didn’t know he needed.
JD shares how his morning routine became the lifeline that saved him when meetings, sponsors, and community fell away and how a single phone call from a brother in sobriety kept him from destroying his marriage. He unpacks the dangerous drift into isolation, the lies we tell ourselves, and the humbling moment of looking in the mirror and not recognizing the man staring back.
This isn’t a highlight reel.
It’s the truth about peaks, valleys, and the fire that comes from getting real.

In this episode of The Iron Perspective, JD Denham sits down with Jeremy Jackson—former Baywatch star turned transformational coach for a raw and powerful conversation about identity, addiction, rock bottom, and the redemption that only comes through total surrender.
Jeremy opens up about what it was really like growing up on camera, losing himself in fame, and spiraling into years of drug abuse, arrests, and self-destruction. But this isn’t just another comeback story it’s about the deep, gritty, spiritual war that happens after the fall.
Together, JD and Jeremy unpack the process of rebuilding from the inside out through accountability, faith, mentorship, and service. No ego. No fluff. Just two men telling the truth about what it takes to finally face yourself and start over for real.
This podcast isn’t about second chances.
It’s about the daily decision to live with integrity or not at all.

This one pulls no punches.
In this episode of The Iron Perspective, JD Denham sits down with Jay Campbell author, hormone optimization pioneer, and unapologetic truth-teller—for a brutally honest conversation about what’s really happening to men in today’s world.
From the destruction of masculinity to the lies we’ve been fed about our health, Jay breaks down the system that’s designed to keep men weak, obedient, and chemically castrated. He shares his own path growing up as the oldest of nine, uncovering medical corruption after the death of his brother, and stepping fully into the fire to speak truth about testosterone, peptides, and personal sovereignty.
JD and Jay expose how the medical system has failed men, how social media is poisoning society, and why most people are too afraid to take back control of their lives. They talk about fatherhood, freedom, resilience, and why living optimized physically, mentally, and spiritually is the greatest rebellion in today’s world.
This is for the men who refuse to play weak.
This is for the ones willing to question everything and build something better.

In this episode of The Iron Perspective, JD Denham sits down with Jon Andersen former pro strongman, wrestler, and bodybuilder turned business owner and coach to unpack what it really takes to become unbreakable. From overcoming learning disabilities to dominating in the arena and now building a legacy off the stage, Jon’s story is a blueprint for turning pain into purpose.
They dive into the mindset behind reinvention, the discipline it takes to pivot without losing your edge, and why the most important muscle you build isn’t your body it’s your mind. Jon shares raw truths on nutrition, coaching, community, and the daily battles that separate the strong from the soft.
This isn’t about ego.
This is about resilience. Reinvention. Responsibility.
Because your next chapter won’t write itself.
And strength is a choice you make every day.

Where did all the strong men go?
In this episode of The Iron Perspective, JD Denham comes out swinging with a no-excuses call to men across the country: lead your family, lead yourself, and stop living soft. From childhood memories of his father’s quiet integrity to the lessons he's now passing on to his own sons, JD breaks down how far men have fallen—and how we can rise again.
He tackles the hard truths—absent fathers, lazy habits, declining testosterone, and the quiet epidemic of passive, overweight men. JD shares his roadmap for reclaiming manhood: discipline, early mornings, fitness, faith, and doing the hard things daily. This isn’t about judgment—it’s about reclaiming purpose, restoring legacy, and leading with strength in a world that's lost its backbone.
This isn’t a motivational speech.
This is a gut check.
Because your sons are watching.
And your excuses aren’t leading anybody.
