Masculinity feels harder to define than ever.

In this episode of Grown Man Game, Rod and Big Mike talk honestly about what modern masculinity looks like in 2025. They get into leadership without chest beating, insecurity disguised as toughness, money pressure, dating expectations, and why real strength usually shows up quietly.

This isn’t a debate or a hot-take episode. It’s two men working through responsibility, courage, self-sufficiency, and how to lead in real life when the rules keep changing.
