Paul sits down with three powerful voices - YUNGBLUD, Jordan Stephens and Big Zuu - for raw, emotional and deeply personal conversations that challenge outdated ideas of what it means to be a man. In this week's episode, We’re Talking MASCULINITY.
They discuss identity, emotional repression, toxic male spaces, and what young boys are really learning from the internet.
◽️ YUNGBLUD opens up about rejecting shame, owning his masculine side, and why he worries for his 12-year-old cousin growing up online
◽️ Jordan Stephens dives into emotional literacy, homophobia, and the consequences of limiting male intimacy
◽️ Big Zuu reflects on being raised by a strong woman, embracing both feminine and masculine traits - and why young men need connection now more than ever
