David's Saturday Night Sit Back (DSNSB)
When I started this show, I had no clear direction — no perfect plan, no “ideal guest.”
So, I committed to recording 21 episodes and figured if something clicked, I’d keep going. Around episode 12, a guest flipped the script and started asking me the hard questions. I was terrified to publish it — but I’d be a hypocrite to ask for people’s truth if I wasn’t willing to give mine.
Then a 17-year-old approached me at the gym after hearing my story. He told me that at 16, he tried to take his own life. And somehow, hearing that episode gave him the hope to keep going.
This podcast is now a mission: to tell personal stories with an aim light the internal fire in young men and women across the globe who are walking through the dark night of their journey.

Bullied, Broken, and Becoming | Julian Kennedy's Story
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Julian Kennedy returns to DSNSB for one of the most vulnerable conversations we've had on the show.
We talk about growing up with divorced parents, being bullied throughout elementary and middle school, struggling with social anxiety, losing his uncle to suicide, and how comic books, music, and art became an escape from the pain. Along the way, Julian shares how those experiences shaped his identity and ultimately helped him become a successful professional artist at just 21 years old.
This episode is for anyone who's ever felt different, struggled to fit in, or wondered if the hardest parts of their story could someday become their greatest strength.
