The REAL STUFF is a podcast by Hunter Johnson, Founder of two organisations redefining masculinity; Man Cave, and Stuff That Matters. As the world changes and power jostles for position behind purpose, masculinity, as we know it, has reached an inflection point. The typecast REAL man is not working for the planet, not working for communities and families, and it’s not working for men. Hunter is no stranger to initiating vulnerable conversations, he’s spent significant time in the ring when it comes to emotions, having worked with over 85,000 young men across Australia through Man Cave Programs. With suicide being the leading cause of death for men under 45, and one woman murdered by her intimate partner every week in Australia, can talking about what’s really going on for men break the cycle? Hunter believes it can. The REAL STUFF brings wisdom to the wisecracks, and checkmate to the chat... although there’s no shortage of banter in these fortnightly episodes.
