Listen "We Confront A One-Star Review And Reintroduce Ourselves To New Listeners"
Episode Synopsis
A single review tried to sum us up with two words we don’t recognise: toxic masculinity. So we read it aloud, sat with the sting, and used it to restate our mission — be useful, be honest, and help people who are navigating the rough bits of real life. No gloss, no scripts, just two hosts telling the truth about grief, growth, and getting back up.Ash opens up about closing a 25-year family business, starting again with Aura Surfaces, and losing his dad — the man who taught him to live and love every day. That loss didn’t become content; it became context for daily action and open conversation. Chris shares his move from construction to TikTok live commerce and why family stays at the centre of every decision. Together, we dig into mental health, boundaries, and the courage it takes to shed people who root against you. Envy shrinks you. Support scales you. This community is built on the latter.We also lay out where we’re heading next: remote guests with big, honest stories — from cancer battles to parenting pivots — plus a 24-hour charity broadcast to turn talk into impact. Growth matters, but not at the cost of integrity. We’re open to aligned sponsors who believe in the mission, and we’re relying on organic support to reach people who need it most.If you’re new, start here to understand what we stand for.
