In this episode of The Plain Values Podcast … Marlin invites listeners into a warm, wide-ranging conversation with his friend Brian Dahlen.Brian spent 17 years hosting live radio for Moody Radio in Cleveland and Chicago. Known for his quick thinking and kind presence behind the microphone, he joins Marlin for breakfast and shares stories from his life … from growing up in Minnesota, teaching high school social studies, to the unexpected journey that led him into radio.The two friends talk about everything from European travels and Renaissance art to the challenges of family life, raising children (including a daughter serving in the 82nd Airborne), and the deep questions of faith, manhood, and what it means to follow Christ in a complicated world.Brian opens up about the spiritual tension of live radio, the beauty and brokenness of family relationships, and the importance of humility and honest conversation in the Christian life. The discussion touches on pain as God’s invitation to grow, the reality of human depravity, and the freedom found in surrendering our own ideas to Scripture.Whether you’ve ever felt the pull between city life and a quieter calling, wrestled with big theological questions, or simply enjoyed thoughtful dialogue between friends, this episode offers encouragement and reflection.If this conversation filled your coffee cup, we would humbly invite you to leave a thoughtful comment below and please, don’t be shy … the Like and Subscribe buttons help more friends find this episode.
