Get in Fellas, We're Going to Therapy
Join Dr. Steven Solomon, Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist and a self proclaimed "frat boy turned shrink", as he looks to round up his fellow bros for a trip in the often-untouched-by-men space of "bromotions". Using a mix of pop culture based segments, empathy building guests and expert interviews, Dr. Solomon will pass down everything he wish he'd known in his 20's to the next generation of young gentlemen. Add "Get in Fellas" and kick start your journey to becoming a kinder, more gentle bro. (And you'll finally be able to say "kinda" when girls on Hinge ask if you're in therapy ;)"
