Episode Synopsis

At what point does being a “real man” turn into being that guy? You know the one—chest-thumping, emotion-dodging, probably one gym session away from challenging someone to a duel.This week, Matt, Muhib, and Bobby get real (and maybe a little reckless) about masculinity: when it builds men up, when it breaks them down, and when it just makes everyone uncomfortable. Is "alpha energy" legit, or just a rebranded midlife crisis? Can men be vulnerable without getting roasted in the group chat? And where exactly is the line between confidence and straight-up douchebaggery?What’s on the chopping block:The good, the bad, and the ultra-cringe—when masculinity stops being an asset and starts being a problem.Why “real men don’t cry” is the dumbest take of all time.Are you leading… or just being loud?Matt, Muhib, and Bobby argue over whether steak, whiskey, and bench press numbers actually define a man.No fluff. No lectures. Just an unfiltered conversation about what it means to be a man today—without sounding like a Twitter debate gone wrong.Listen now. Or don’t. But if you do, at least pretend it was your idea.
