Bro-ing Pains
Bro-ing Pains is the show for men, and for anyone who’s ever loved one. Through vignettes and listener stories, we explore the conversations that live somewhere between your therapist’s office and the group chat.
Hosted by Chad Fraga, LMFT & Carlos (a theater kid turned self-proclaimed “Corporate Papi”), this show blends humor, lived experience, and mental health insight.
New episodes every other Thursday.

Bro-ing Pains
Let's Talk About Sex | Body Counts, Hookup Culture & Masculinity
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In episode 4, we dive into the world of modern intimacy — from awkward “birds and bees” talks to what school didn’t teach us.
We break down how pop culture and gendered expectations shape our ideas of desirability, with help from the documentary Miss Representation and Dr. Emily Nagoski's book Come Together.
Plus: navigating body counts, emotional intimacy, and queer perspectives on hookup culture.
Whether you're figuring out your love language or wondering why men get praised for doing the bare minimum, this one's for you!
