With Tim away, Tommy is joined again by his (almost) 12-year-old son, Jakub, for a conversation that’s equal parts insightful, honest, and unexpectedly fun. Together, they explore what growing up feels like today, the pressures young boys can face, and the importance of creating space for them to be heard early in life.
Blending meaningful moments with a lighthearted round of This or That, this episode is a reminder that conversations around men’s mental health don’t start in adulthood — they start long before most of us realize.
For dads, parents, and anyone who believes emotionally strong men are shaped by the voices we choose to listen to when they’re young.
