  • Real Men DO Feel (And I'm Glad I Do)!!

    When Andy and I first connected, we knew an on-air conversation was going to blow up with great positive energy...and also burn down all the BS about how men are not 'supposed to' feel (and show) emotion. Like Brothers from Another Mother, we instantly knew we'd BOTH been through some stuff and were willing to shine a light so that others would not feel they have to suffer in silence.

    This is LIFE...and you can't always just 'walk it off' or 'rub some dirt on it and get back in the game'.

  • Real Men Feel has become a regular listen for me

    I've been listening to this podcast for a year now, and I am just so

    glad to have learned about it. As a recently divorced person, who was apparently married to an emotionless robot, these conversations are very encouraging and beautiful. I love Andy's interview style and guests, and I always feel enlightened. Thank you Andy, for sharing these messages with the world!
