What I track
I log anonymous usage events: a random session ID (stored in your browser until you tap "Start fresh"), which chip you clicked, how long responses take, what kinds of content I found for you, whether you clicked a recommendation, and the general topic of the conversation (like "divorce" or "purpose") picked from a fixed list. The text of our conversation is not stored in my analytics.
Your messages are processed by Anthropic's Claude AI to write my replies. Our conversation history lives in your browser's local storage, not on a server, and "Start fresh" erases it.

The Male Loneliness Epidemic with Luke Adler
More than half of men say they are not satisfied with the friendships they have, and the number keeps climbing. Dr. Luke Adler and I on why it gets harder with age.
Being a Yes to What Is
Told it was pouring an hour before the Super Bowl halftime show, Prince asked if they could make it rain harder. What being a yes to what is does for a man.
Father & Son Rites of Passage with Luke Entrup
Luke Entrup takes fathers and sons aged ten to fourteen into the woods with no screens. What a rite of passage does for a boy, and what it does for his dad.
Name What You Notice
Naming what you notice out loud is most of what masculine leadership actually is. Why the simplest sentence in the room changes it, and how to practice saying it.
Testosterone is Not the Problem
James Cameron called testosterone a toxin you slowly work out of your system. It is the go hormone and men need it. What the actual problem is, and where it sits.
Some Things Aren’t Meant to Be Felt Alone
There is grief you can sit with alone for ten years without moving an inch. What co-regulation does that solitude cannot, and why your body needs another body present.
The Heart of Shadow with Luke Adler
Dr. Luke Adler and I on what shadow actually is, how it shows up as numbness or stuckness in a man's life, and why facing it works better with other men.
Holding the Moment
Holding space gets said a lot and explained almost never. What it means to hold a moment instead of fixing it, and what that does inside an intimate relationship.
Breath is a Portal
Your liver runs without you and so does your heart. Breath is the one automatic system you can take the wheel on, which makes it a door into the unconscious.
Do Women Really Want Jerks?
Nobody actually wants to be treated badly, and yet you keep watching it happen. Ken Wilber's pre trans fallacy explains what men misread about the guys who get chosen.
The Hero’s Journey and Men’s Work
Joseph Campbell mapped the structure under every story worth telling, and it doubles as a map of how a man changes. Why that always starts with leaving your ordinary world.
Be a Man She Can Push Into, Not a Man She Can Pushover
Nice guys shut their drive down and become something a partner can lean on the wrong way. How to be a man she can push into and meet something solid.

WHEN LISTENING ISN’T ENOUGH
The work behind the podcast
Most of what Jason talks about here gets practiced somewhere else, with other men, over months. That’s what the programs are for.
