Despair among men is already a global epidemic and increasing at an alarming rate. Even high-functioning “successful” men succumb to substance abuse and even suicide.

I tried listening to several episodes and discovered that the hosts don’t feel comfortable with being male and males in general. They gravitate towards sharing statistics and personal stories that negatively stereotype men and put females on a pedestal.

I love this podcast as it promotes healthy masculinity- in a world of toxicity, this is a breath of fresh air. Really helpful to me as the mom of a college boy- very important conversations.
