Men Unscripted is a series of anonymous conversations with men about their experiences with being in their body. Aaron Flores is your host and each conversation gives more insight into the struggles that men experience as they learn to be more comfortable in their body.
Aaron sits down with "Bones" for a thoughtful conversation about body shame, binge eating, masculinity, and what it means to be in the middle of healing — not on the other side of it. A vulnerable episode about listening to your body, doing the work, and redefining worth beyond size.

Season 4 Episode 5 - "Drake"
Drake, a 56-year-old husband and father, shares what it's like to carry decades of silent shame about his weight, shaped by comments from family, masculinity expectations, and the belief that "men handle it themselves." Only recently did he begin unpacking this through therapy, walking, and discovering this podcast. Drake talks about separating health from body size, questioning GLP-1 medications, noticing joy return, and learning to speak openly for the first time in his adult life. A grounded, honest conversation about fear, embodiment, and the long journey toward self-compassion.
