Men Talk NY is a space where men come together to talk about anything and everything under the sun — openly, honestly, and without judgment. Created by host Sean McPhail, the show was born during one of the toughest periods of his life while going through a divorce. When Sean opened up to friends, he discovered something powerful — many of the men around him were struggling too, but suffering in silence. Men Talk NY was created to change that. Each episode features real conversations about life, relationships, mental health, fatherhood, success, failure, and everything in between — giving men a place to express themselves and support one another. The logo is pink for a reason. As a boy, Sean was told, “real men wear pink.” Today, it represents strength, vulnerability, and the courage it takes for men to speak their truth.
The Men Talk crew sits down with Bishop Ronald Hopkins of Pilgrim Cathedral of Harlem for an open conversation about religion, faith, purpose, and the role of God in today’s society. They explore personal callings, why some people move away from the church, prosperity preaching, and what it truly means to live a life of faith.
