Nik Richie sits down with his ex wife, Shayne Lamas, for an honest conversation about their past, their evolution as parents and the reality of building a healthy relationship after divorce.

They also open up about co parenting, raising their children together and navigating the unpredictable world of dating after a long relationship.

This episode is not about reliving old conflicts. It is about understanding them, accepting what cannot be changed and recognizing that closure does not always come from forgetting the past. Sometimes it comes from having the courage to discuss it honestly.

Nik doesn’t pretend the controversy doesn’t exist. He asks about it.

It’s an opportunity to hear HER TRUTH.

Nik Richie built his career in media understanding that there are multiple sides to every story. In this conversation, he gives Josie the microphone and lets the audience decide for themselves.

Nik and Raees discuss the realities of fighting within the legal system, the difference between what is legal and what is right, why strong advocacy matters, and the responsibility attorneys have when people’s lives are on the line.

Child support is one of the most emotional and misunderstood topics in family law. While it exists to ensure children are financially supported, many parents argue the system can become a source of prolonged conflict when financial obligations are used as leverage during custody disputes or post separation disagreements.

In Episode 9 of the Dirty Army Podcast, Nik Richie sits down with special guest Jay Galolo to discuss the realities of child support, the legal process behind support orders, and why so many parents feel trapped in a system that often prioritizes conflict over cooperation.

Together, they explore how disputes over child support can affect both mothers and fathers, the financial and emotional toll lengthy court battles can take, and the importance of keeping children’s best interests at the center of every decision. The conversation also examines concerns raised by some families that child support may, in certain cases, be used strategically during high conflict custody litigation, while recognizing that child support is intended as a legal mechanism to provide for children.

Whether you are currently navigating family court, paying or receiving child support, or simply trying to better understand how the system works, this episode offers an honest discussion about one of the most divisive issues facing separated families today.
