Divorce can knock out way more than your marriage. It can strip your routine, your social circle, and the version of you that knew what tomorrow looked like. Zach and Matt start Divorce Dudes with a simple promise: no pity, no pressure, no pretending, just a real space where guys can talk about what divorce actually does to you and how to start rebuilding. 

We get honest about the parts men don’t always say out loud: the loneliness after the paperwork is done, the weird silence when friends drift away, and the feeling of losing your “structure” along with your relationship. We also share why the old advice to “rub dirt on it” doesn’t work, and what a judgment-free divorce support space for men can look like when it’s built for real life, not performative toughness. 

You’ll also hear what we’re building next: a community of dudes helping other dudes get their lives back on track, plus practical guidance from professionals. Think divorce advice you can use, including conversations that may include a divorce lawyer, and everyday reset topics like cooking, dating after divorce, and basic hygiene and self-care when life feels upside down. 

If you’re looking for a men’s divorce podcast, support after divorce, or a place to ask the questions you don’t say in public, hit play. Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs it, and leave a review with the one topic you want us to tackle next.

Losing More Than A Marriage

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, it's one of those things I didn't have someone to talk to. So post-divorce, you lose the friends too. You didn't just lose the wife, you didn't just lose the kids in the house. It was the structure and the people and everything else, and we want to give a space that you can come to both listen and talk to and send us questions and maybe even talk to other people that

And yeah, we're just trying to build a community of dudes. Sorry, it's uh the cocktail we were talking about earlier. Uh community of dudes helping other dudes get their lives back on track.
