From Boys to Men: A Journey Through Masculinity
From Boys to Men is a podcast about the embodied journey of masculinity.
Season 1, titled UNCUT, focused on the raw and often unspoken realities of male puberty — exploring shame, sexuality, and the body through a somatic lens.
Now, in Season 2, we expand the conversation. From grief and addiction to love, longing, and emotional intimacy, we explore the evolving terrain of manhood beyond adolescence.
Through storytelling, music, and honest reflection, this podcast is a space to unshame the masculine experience — not to define what a man should be, but to uncover what it means to be fully human in a male body.

[Ep. 2] Undress to Impress: Porn, Shame, and Isolation with Mo Wildman
In this episode of UNCUT: The Male Puberty Podcast, I sit down with Mo Wildman to explore the unspoken struggles and vulnerabilities of his puberty.
Mo takes us back to his first date at 13, where he tried to impress a girl by taking off his shirt—a moment that left him grappling with shame and insecurity. He reflects on how experiences like this shaped his understanding of masculinity, intimacy, and self-worth.
We also dive into a pivotal topic: porn. From his first encounters with friends to how it influenced his relationships and sense of connection, Mo offers an honest look at:
- The isolating effects of early exposure to porn.
- How porn overcouples emotional safety with dissociation.
- The impact of non-reciprocal relationships
We wrap up with a powerful freestyle rap, "I'm Not Alone With This Shit," capturing the solidarity we all crave in these conversations.
