    Ep 61 Should You Get Married Traditionally or Elope?

    In this episode of Chasing Masculinity, host Colton Wutzke explores the question many engaged men wrestle with today: Should you pursue a traditional wedding or choose to elope? By first defining what marriage is biblically and covenantally, the episode separates the meaning of marriage from the modern wedding industry, exposing how cultural pressure, performance, and cost have distorted priorities around getting married. The episode walks through what weddings have become, the financial and spiritual risks of starting a marriage in debt, and how elopement can re-center the covenant back where it belongs. It offers practical guidance for men who want to honor God, protect their future marriage, and make wise, intentional decisions without being driven by spectacle or social expectation.

    Ep 60 My Biggest Takeaway From 2025: The Weekly Review

    In this episode of Chasing Masculinity, host Colton Wutzke reflects on his biggest personal takeaway from 2025: the discipline and clarity that came from implementing a weekly review. Rather than offering a broad year-end recap, this episode focuses on how a simple, consistent practice evolved from a basic to-do list into a powerful tool for self-evaluation, alignment, and intentional living. He shares how regular reflection reduced chaos, prevented drift, and helped ensure his daily actions stayed aligned with his faith, values, and long-term vision. Tune in to walk through what a weekly review can look like in practice, why it matters for men carrying growing responsibility, and how to build one that fits their own season of life. Consistency over perfection challenges men to stop drifting on autopilot by creating space each week to reflect, prepare, and realign with the man they are trying to become.

    Ep 56 Masculine Essentials: Voice & Presence - How Tone, Posture, and Words Build Respect

    In this episode of Chasing Masculinity, host Colton Wutzke breaks down one of the most overlooked fundamentals of masculine respect: voice and presence.

This episode explains why controlled presence matters and how tone and posture communicate strength long before words do. Listeners will learn the practical essentials of carrying themselves with intention, speaking with a grounded tone, holding steady posture, and projecting calm authority. If respect is earned through presence, this episode shows exactly where that process begins. Send us a text Support the show Thank you for joining me on Chasing Masculinity.

    Ep 55 Masculine Essentials: Digital Discipline

    In this episode of Chasing Masculinity, Colton Wutzke explores digital discipline, not as a tech problem, but as an issue of attention and presence. Many men today are disconnected in their own homes, reaching for their phones the moment boredom hits. The result is fractured attention, weakened presence, and distance in relationships, especially with the people who matter most. This episode lays out a clear and practical weekly structure to rebuild digital discipline, protect presence, and regain authority over your attention. Because discipline begins not in the big moments, but in the small seconds where your hand reaches and you decide whether to be here, or somewhere else.

    Ep 54 Fatherlessness & the Rise of Digital Father Models

    In this episode of Chasing Masculinity, host Colton Wutzke confronts one of the most defining issues shaping young men today: fatherlessness. Not just the emotionally distant or passive father, but the literal absence of men in the home, leading to the collapse of stable families, commitment, and masculine leadership.  This leads to a cultural vacuum that has led to the rise of digital father figures, the influencers and personalities who now shape male identity through algorithms rather than relationships. Tune in to learn how digital models can offer ideas, but they cannot correct character, build discipline, or teach a man how to carry responsibility.
