Real Men - Real Talk is a refreshingly authentic podcast where men speak candidly about the challenges and triumphs of modern masculinity. Hosted by Chris Dearborn alongside rotating co-hosts including Tilghman, and other members of the Real Men Apparel team, this show cuts through the noise with genuine conversation about what it means to be a man today.

Chris was on the road and planning to walk you through the warehouse by himself. Then Tilghman walked into the room, and it turned into a two-phone, two-host tour of every place your underwear sits before it ever meets you. The least glamorous building we own turns out to be the most interesting one.
Key moments:
0:00 - What are you wearing today? (cold open from the road)
1:01 - Tilghman crashes the episode
2:38 - Inside the warehouse: row 19, column 24
4:13 - The packing station, the scan cams, and the returns table
8:25 - Jared's desk: seam changes, D-pouch, and bamboo
Every rack, label, and scanner in that building exists for one reason: the pair you ordered showing up in the right size, in the right box, on the right day.
Practical Applications:
If your first order doesn't fit, you usually don't need to ship anything back. Tell us and a new pair goes out.
* Most "returns" are just size swaps, so order the size you think you are and adjust from there instead of guessing forever.
* Fit complaints on Reddit and TikTok are what actually change the product. The boxer brief back seam got redesigned because guys spoke up.
Next time you tear open a package, you'll know it came off row 19, column 24. Somehow that makes it better.

We Tried Jockey So You Don't Have To — Zero Support, Full Chafe Option
⬇️ We Tried Jockey So You Don't Have To
We put on Jockey so you don't have to. Tilghman took the boxer briefs, Chris took the bikini briefs, and somewhere between a Fourth of July grill session and a mannequin demo, we learned exactly what "95% cotton, no pouch" does to a man in motion. Spoiler: it does not stay put.
In this episode:
Tilghman's Fourth of July run in the boxer briefs: heat, fireworks, and a lot of sweat
The side fly that didn't work out and the wedgie-for-support workaround
Chris's bikini brief reunion — first Jockey pair since he was 10
Why too much fabric between the legs means zero separation
The on-camera fabric comparison: flat Jockey vs. real Real Men space
Cotton is soft, we'll give them that. But soft with no structure is just a really comfortable problem.

Your Fabric is LYING to You! Fabric Deep Dive
⬇️ Your Fabric Is Lying to You (A Fabric Deep Dive)
Not every fabric wants what's best for you. Chris and Tilghman go hands-on with the four fabrics in your underwear drawer — cotton, modal, nylon, and problematic polyester — to figure out which one keeps its cool, which one holds a grudge (and your sweat), and why one of them keeps giving you the same smell no matter what. Pure homegrown human thought. No AI wrote this one.
In this episode:
Cotton's big flaw: it soaks up moisture and just… holds onto it (chafing, salt deposits, the works)
Modal's case: beech-pulp softness, more wicking than cotton, and how it survives heavy labor in the heat
Why nylon is the quiet MVP — cool to the touch, near-zero absorption, and a travel lifesaver
The polyester problem: trapped heat, bonded body oils, and that permanent locker-room smell
The weave test and the "listen to your underwear" trick that changes how you shop
If we can save one man from the oppression and heat of polyester, it was all worth it.
