Four Titles, One Truth
Four Titles, One Truth is a raw, real, and often hilarious podcast hosted by two retired Army veterans — a Sergeant Major and a Colonel — who’ve lived, led, and learned through decades of service, fatherhood, marriage, and manhood.
Tommie and Lance explore the real conversations that matter: life after the military, raising families, confronting loss, staying grounded, and navigating the world as Black men in America.
This isn’t just a military podcast. It’s a lot more. Join the conversations between two friends, two men who’ve seen it a lot, learned even more— and have something to say.
Veterans. Husbands. Fathers. Black Men.

Health Is Everything: Why Black Men Can’t Ignore Chronic Illness & Prevention
Health Is Everything: Chronic Illness, Prevention & Black Men’s Physical Wellness
In this episode of Four Titles, One Truth, Tommie and Lance tackle a topic that often gets pushed to the side until it’s too late — physical health, especially for Black men.
This conversation goes beyond gym routines and quick fixes. We talk honestly about chronic illness, prevention, genetics, stress, access to care, and the cultural mindset that often teaches Black men to “push through” instead of getting checked out. From ignoring warning signs to not prioritizing doctor visits, this episode breaks down why prevention matters and how health directly impacts leadership, family, longevity, and quality of life.
This isn’t about fear — it’s about awareness, accountability, and choosing to live longer and better for ourselves and the people who depend on us.
