Description

Shane Ramer is the founder and host of That Sober Guy Podcast, a culture and performance platform examining what happens when high-performing men remove alcohol and reclaim clarity, focus, and leverage.

Since launching the show in 2014, Shane has reached millions of listeners across 100+ countries by challenging conventional narratives around masculinity, success, and sobriety. His work sits at the intersection of identity, discipline, and modern performance.

Shane works privately with executives, founders, athletes, and creatives who are no longer interested in numbing high performance with low-level coping tools. His approach reframes sobriety not as healing, but as optimization, removing friction so men can operate with precision in business, health, and leadership.

He is also the creator of the Sober Male Index, a performance-focused data project tracking how sobriety impacts focus, productivity, income, and social dynamics in men.

Shane is a husband of 20 years, a father of two, and lives his work through faith, fitness, and daily discipline.

More money. More success. A bigger house. A better job. The next big thing. We're constantly chasing something, convinced that once we finally get there, we'll be happy. But what if you already have enough? In a world obsessed with success, status, and keeping up, it's easy to lose sight of what actually matters. You can spend your whole life building a future you hope to enjoy while missing the life you're living right now. In this episode of That Sober Guy Podcast, we're talking about the pressure to succeed and provide, the wisdom of Ecclesiastes, and why all the money, possessions, and accomplishments in the world can't give you the peace that comes from Jesus Christ. Plus, some laughs about fake success, social media gurus, and the ridiculous things we do chasing a life we think we're supposed to have. Maybe the answer isn't having more. Maybe it's learning to enjoy what God has already given you. For More Resources go to http://www.ThatSoberGuy.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Everybody's offended. Everybody's exhausted. Everybody's got an opinion. And apparently, everybody's an expert. We're living in a world addicted to outrage, distractions, and nonstop chaos. But here's the question: Just because the world is losing its mind, does that mean you have to lose yours? In this episode of That Sober Guy Podcast, we're talking about protecting your peace, staying sober-minded, and keeping your faith when everything around you seems completely unhinged. From social media meltdowns and self-proclaimed experts to biblical wisdom and practical ways to stay grounded, we're mixing some laughs with a much-needed reality check. You can't control the chaos around you, but you can choose what you allow to control you. Keep your blood clean.

Everybody wants a better life. But are you actually willing to change? We live in a world obsessed with self-improvement, optimization, and the next big thing promising to make your life better. More apps, more advice, more influencers selling you the perfect morning routine. But here's the question: Are you becoming a better person, or just a more efficient version of your old self? You can get sober, get in shape, make more money, and check every box on the self-improvement list. But what about your character? Your relationships? How you treat people when nobody's watching? In this episode, we're talking about what it really means to become new through Jesus, why faith should change how you live, and how to stop trying to fix everybody else while ignoring the things you need to work on. You don't need another upgraded version of the old you. Maybe it's time to become new. Plus, a few laughs about social media influencers, ridiculous marketing, and why everybody suddenly has a masterclass to sell you.

What if you don’t need to have everything figured out? We live in a culture obsessed with optimization, planning and control. We track everything, analyze everything and want to know exactly how things are going to turn out. But faith doesn’t always work that way. In this episode, Shane digs into what Jesus feeding the 5,000 can teach us about trusting God when the math doesn’t make sense. Sometimes our instinct is to analyze the problem, calculate the odds and figure everything out, while God may simply be asking us to trust Him. But trusting God doesn’t mean sitting around and being a lazy ass either. Do the next right thing. Do the work. Limit the expectation. Trust God with the outcome. We also get into what it looks like to share your faith without beating people over the head with a Bible. Let your life create the question. Love people. Serve people. Live differently. But don’t confuse attraction with compromise, Jesus never changed the truth just because people didn’t like the message. Maybe you don’t need the entire plan today. Maybe you just need enough faith to take the next step. Less: “God, here’s my plan. Please bless it.” More: “God, show me where You’re leading.” Join “The Victory Circle”, our FREE Sober Guy Mens Community at https://www.thatsoberguy.com/offers/SvjjuEQ2/checkout Want to go 30 Days Alcohol Free?

What if the thing you’ve been searching for isn’t another drink, another high, more success, or even a better version of yourself? This week, we’re talking about what happens when the things we use to escape, cope or prove ourselves stop delivering what we thought they would. After a night at The Whosoevers Boise Invasion grand opening with P.O.D., Head and Fieldy from Korn, Lacey Sturm of Flyleaf, Dave Buckner from Papa Roach and many other amazing people, one message stood out: “Religion is dead. This is about a relationship with God.” Maybe you’ve spent years searching too. Alcohol. Drugs. Money. Success. Approval. Relationships. Work. Constantly trying to become a better version of yourself. But what if you don’t just need to do better? What if you need to become new? In John 3:5–8, Jesus talks about being born again, born of the Spirit. And John 3:30 gives us another challenge: “He must become greater; I must become less.” Less ego. Less control. Less trying to prove ourselves. More of Him. This episode is about sobriety, surrender, relationship over religion, and finding the peace we may have been searching for in all the wrong places. You don’t need to have God figured out. Maybe you just start with an honest question: “Jesus, if You’re real, show me.” And yes… we also learn that getting sober does NOT make a 45-year-old body recover from a mosh pit any faster.
