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.

[S2 E2] Back on the Grind(r)
Before Grindr, there were Craigslist M4M personal ads — and that’s where I first started chasing anonymous hookups. In this episode, I revisit my relationship to cruising apps and fast sex through a somatic lens.
We explore:
- How Grindr conditions the nervous system for urgency and disembodiment
- The collapse and numbness that can follow fast, ungrounded sex
- And the craving for deeper contact underneath it all
This isn’t a takedown of queer hookup culture — it’s an invitation into honesty, curiosity, and embodied awareness.
Let’s unshame what’s real.
