In this powerful episode of The Men’s Collective Podcast, four everyday men—Wayno, Mikie, Jamie and Toby go head-to-head on one of the most controversial questions of our time: Is masculinity toxic?
No scripts, no safe space, just raw, honest conversation.
We dissect the cultural narratives, unpack our own stories, and challenge the modern perception of what it means to be a man amongst ever moving goal posts.
We ask is chivalry dead, and go deep on why masculinity is confusing purely because it is misunderstood.
Whether you’re feeling lost in today’s gender confusion or hungry for truth, this episode pulls no punches and might just shift your entire perspective.————————————————————————

There’s a war against masculinity—and at the frontline is a man’s worth.

In Part 2 of our powerful series The War on Masculinity, Wayno, Mikie, Jamie, and Chrisso go head-to-head with one of the biggest lies men are sold: "Your value is found in what you earn!"
This episode calls out the silent attack on male identity—where a man’s value is reduced to his income, productivity, or social status. Is your worth tied to your bank account? Are you disposable if you can’t provide? What happens when you’re no longer “useful” to the system?
In this raw and real conversation, the AverageJoes rip the mask off society’s expectations and explore how men can reclaim their value, fight back against shame, and live with purpose in a culture that wants them silent, soft, and small.

Whether you see it or not, there is a war going on, a war against men living in their masculinity.
Welcome to the bold new podcast series in which Wayno, Mikie, Stevo, and Jamie unpack the modern challenges men face in a rapidly changing world that, in many ways, seems against them.
In episode 1, Thermostats and Thermometers, we dive deep into the analogy of thermostats and thermometers in masculinity. Are you a thermostat controlling your environment, or a thermometer simply reacting to it? Together, we explore how men can take control of their lives, make tough decisions, and navigate the pressures of society while staying true to themselves. Expect raw, honest discussions that will challenge everything you thought you knew about being a man in today’s world.
