"What's Good, Man?" is a podcast in search of healthy masculinity. Hosted by rappers, writers, and activists Guante and tony the scribe, it's a response to a pressing need: most of us agree that old-fashioned, violent masculinity needs to change, but aren't sure what comes next. We're here to try to figure it out, together. With episodes on men's role in the feminist movement, how masculinity is portrayed in pop culture, healthy sexuality, and more, "What's Good, Man?" strives to be a space for honest, critical conversations about what manhood is, but also about what it could be.
