About the show

What does it really mean to be a man today? In Man Made, Pete Wicks sits down with friends, peers and public figures to unpack modern masculinity: the good, the bad and the confusing. They talk openly about the traits that define them, the moments they have got it wrong, and how expectations of men are changing. From vulnerability and relationships to friendship, fame and fatherhood, no topic is off limits. These conversations are not just for men, but for anyone who wants to better understand them. A place for real conversations about who we are, who we want to be, and how we get there. If you ever need mental-health support or want to talk about your feelings, visit the Hub of Hope to find services in your area.
