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 Finale] Brotherhood Is Erotic w/ OWL
The Season 2 finale opens with my song “I Don’t Want to Be Here Anymore,” a raw reckoning with my will to die and the ongoing choice to remain.
I’m joined by OWL, whose name carries a fierce truth: you have to want to be here to be here. Together we explore our will to live—not as an entitlement, but as something forged, earned, and continually chosen.
OWL names the paradox of our death-phobic culture—how death is hidden and outsourced—and how this invisibilization correlates with rising suicide rates. When death can’t be witnessed, neither can grief or meaning.
We explore a charged truth: brotherhood is erotic—not sexualized, but alive, felt, and embodied. Many men fight, train, or compete when what they’re really longing for is closeness, belonging, and solidarity.
OWL shares his perspective on polyamory and monogamy, offers a queered re-imagining of Daddy / Saturn / Capricorn energy, and performs his Zodiac Incantation for Capricorn.
We close with my song *“What the F Is Going On in This World?”**—a meditation on bearing witness—followed by a final freestyle from OWL.
A finale about death, devotion, brotherhood, and the fierce choice to live—together.
