  • Summary

  • What's a "real man"? As society changes, we seem to be redefining the term. For some men, this transition is leaving them wondering exactly who and what they’re supposed to be, and how they fit in. And the outcomes aren't always great. We have no interest in telling anyone how to be a real man. Instead, our podcast is all about the search for authenticity. We want to know what men really think when it comes to careers, family, relationships, and more. So, we interview a wide variety of guests who have unique views about men and their place in the world. Take a listen and let us know if you have the answer to what it means to "be a man." Because we're still trying to figure it out.

    We take a look at how the role of men is changing in modern culture. It starts with us discussing (and complaining a little about) examples of how media - social media, movies, TV shows - have marginalized men. Mike explains why he hates "Everybody Loves Raymond." We talk a lot about sex and why men always end up as the "chasers."

    Mike and Eric talk with Mark (who's not actually that old) about how the definition of being a man has changed over time. Mark share s with us his perspective on growing up with his own father - "a real man if there ever was one" - and how the role of men has changed in Mark's 7+ decades. As a side note.... Mark's not buying into most of what society is telling him about being a "modern man."
