Episode Title: An Open Letter to Our Fathers
*Bonus Father’s Day Episode | The Trigger and The Truth with Tina White
In this special Father’s Day bonus episode of The Trigger and The Truth, host Tina White delivers a heartfelt open letter to the men who’ve shaped, supported, and stood in the gap. From faithful fathers to quiet protectors, to the flawed but still fighting—this tribute is for every man who has dared to love, protect, and provide in a world that rarely gives them grace.
Tina also shares a deeply personal message to her big brother Manny, a man who’s been her rock through grief, transition, and turmoil. This episode is a reminder that fatherhood isn’t just about DNA—it’s about presence, consistency, and love that stands tall even when words fall short.
"When this family turned their backs, Manny stood ten toes down. And I don’t think he understands how much that meant to me." —Tina White
If a father, big brother, mentor, or protector has held you down through the highs and lows—tell them.

Let’s make honoring our men a habit—not just a holiday.
