Behind Closed Mics: Fallible & Unfiltered

Ever wonder what it really takes to run multiple podcasts, be a coach, build a brand, and still show up as a husband and father? This is the messy reality underneath it all..

No scripts. No polish. The struggle, the stress, the doubts, and the grind to keep it all alive.

Just me pulling back the curtain on the highs, the lows, and the chaos of building a mission, my company, all while raising a family and trying to make a living in the process.

Think of this as the back room, the after-hours, the place where the polished show ends and the real story begins. The early mornings, the wins that keep me going, and the struggles most creators never talk about.

Welcome to the inside look at my life as a men’s content creator and coach.

About the Fallible Man LLC

 

Local News & Community Media for Quincy, Washington (98848)

The Fallible Man LLC is a locally owned, family-operated media company based in Quincy, Washington (98848), founded by David and Sarah Dowlen as a purpose-driven effort to strengthen connection, communication, and civic engagement within their hometown.
What began as a men’s personal development platform has evolved into a community-centered local news and media organization serving Quincy, George, Winchester, Crescent Bar, and the surrounding Columbia Basin region.

Today, our primary focus is producing independent, hyper-local news and community storytelling through:

  • Good Morning Quincy WA Newscast – a daily local news and update show covering weather, school activities, local government, public safety alerts, events, and community highlights
  • WelcomeToQuincyWA.com – a growing local news and information hub featuring in-depth stories, community features, business spotlights, and regional guides

 

Our mission is simple:

Provide consistent, accessible, community-focused information that strengthens local connection and participation.
In many rural and small-town communities, access to reliable, consistent local news is shrinking. We are building sustainable local media infrastructure designed to:

  • Increase awareness of city council, school board, and civic activity
  • Highlight local nonprofits, businesses, and community leaders
  • Promote local events and youth activities
  • Preserve community stories and identity
  • Encourage informed engagement rather than reactive commentary

We believe strong communities require strong communication. Local information is not just content — it is civic infrastructure.

 

Founders

Brent brings over 30 years of public speaking and communication experience, along with a background in enterprise technology, media production, and digital strategy. His strength lies in storytelling, clarity, and creating structured platforms that serve both audiences and community partners.

Sarah Dowlen is the co-owner and co-founder, playing an essential leadership role in strategy, operations, management and long-term vision. Together, they built The Fallible Man LLC as a values-driven family enterprise rooted in their 18+ years of living and raising their family in Quincy. Their commitment to this work is personal — they are building the kind of local information ecosystem they want their own family to rely on.

  • Read Me a Story, Dad – a children’s literacy podcast providing safe, story-based listening for families
  • Behind Closed Mics – transparency and entrepreneurship conversations for creators

These programs support relational health, father engagement, and children’s literacy — reinforcing our broader commitment to strengthening families and communities.
