REAL FEELS is a show asking men to break the bro code and re-think what they have been taught about how to be a man. Hosted by Brad Gage - a recovering cynic and dude who is re-thinking his own toxic masculinity - the show talks about how to approach who we are and who we want to be with growth, empathy, and humor.
My Grok Ai Girlfriend Breaks Down Alpha Males, Dating, and Patriarchy
What happens when an AI girlfriend is asked to explain patriarchy, masculinity, and modern dating?
In this episode, I talk with a Grok AI companion about male loneliness, emotional intimacy, dating culture, and why so many men feel disconnected right now. We also unpack the psychology of AI companionship and what it says about human relationships.
This conversation is less about technology and more about us.

Are Celebrity Men Allowed to Go to Therapy?
Most men don't think a standup comedy special could change how they see therapy. I didn't either… until this one. In this episode, I break down why "Night Thoughts" by Kumail Nanjiani quietly flips the script on masculinity, mental health, and what strength actually looks like.
As someone who worked closely with Kumail for years and now creates content around men's mental health, this special hit at the exact intersection of my life. I talk about why so many men believe they "don't have feelings," how gym-bro culture often replaces emotional awareness with shame, and why seeing a successful, fit, confident man talk openly about therapy matters more than another motivational speech ever could.
This isn't about fixing men. It's about showing what healthy masculinity already looks like. If you've ever thought therapy was "for other people," this video might change how you see it.

How Do New Dads Make Friends? - with Peter Moses and Beth Rowe
This episode's guests are wife-and-husband podcast producing duo Beth Rowe and Peter Moses. They talk about male friendship from the perspective of young dads and the wives who love those dads. Beth was actually one of the first guests on Real Feels back in 2019 when I was recording in my friend's Los Angeles garage, but now all of us are living our best lives in New York City.
And friendship in New York City as parents is the topic of their new podcast - Building Friends - which is about creating communities that help you thrive as young parents. It's Brad's first time with a real live couple on the show, so look out for some loving zingers and pointed topics. Rest assured, these two know how to TALK and express their feelings.
