What if the thing men are praised for most, is also the place they hide?
Pete Wicks welcomes comedian and Strictly champion, Chris McCausland, for one of the most honest conversations we’ve had about modern masculinity.
In this episode, Chris challenges the idea of strength, opens up about responsibility, and questions whether being “productive” is always the same as being present. From role models and resilience to fatherhood and fear, this is a conversation about the pressures men put on themselves, and the stories they tell to cope.
