Other men need other men need help

I really enjoy this show. It’s funny and fun and sincere and thoughtful… I think it’s fair to say that it’s helping me to think and talk differently about being a man. Thanks for making it.

Season 3 is all about friendship. If you’re new to the show I’d say start there, it’s excellent.

This is a great listen.
