What actually makes a man?

This week on The Life Raft, Jay and Jake are joined by Nick from Shot Timer Live and Justin from Donut Shop Podcast for a conversation that could go absolutely anywhere.

From raging alcoholics, to drug addiction, to full-blown nerd culture — we’ve somehow assembled three very different approaches to getting through life and decided this was the perfect group to answer one fairly important question:

WHAT IS A MAN?

Is masculinity about strength?

Responsibility?

Providing for your family?

Being able to control your vices?

Is the traditional idea of a man disappearing, or are men simply being expected to become something different?

How much of being a man comes from the things you enjoy, the people around you and the mistakes you’ve made along the way?

And can a bloke dressed as Darth Vader eating a donut genuinely teach us anything about masculinity?

Probably not. But we’re asking him anyway.

Jay, Jake, Nick and Justin get into masculinity, addiction, alcohol, hobbies, relationships, responsibility, growing up and what being a man actually means in 2026.

Get involved in the live chat and tell us what you think makes a man.

Foo's out tonight, but we didn't go it alone — special guest host CarmelOP is filling in, and we've got plenty to get into.

BlizzCon's got people talking, Sony's allegedly thinking about selling PS5s without a controller in the box (yeah, we have thoughts), and the new Fable game is creeping closer to release. We're breaking all of it down before jumping into Wardogs.

Counter Culture Gaming is the podcast nobody asked for — a donut, a male nurse, and a firefighter who game, argue, and somehow keep getting invited back on air. Tonight Foo's swapped out for a guest who actually showed up on time.

Counter Culture Health & Fitness — Sleep Sergeant

This week on Counter Culture Health & Fitness, Anthony sits down with Sleep Sergeant to talk about one of the most overlooked parts of health, fitness, and performance: sleep.

For police officers, first responders, and shift workers, getting quality sleep isn't as simple as going to bed at the same time every night. Overnight shifts, rotating schedules, overtime, stress, caffeine, and trying to sleep while the rest of the world is awake can take a serious toll.

Sleep Sergeant breaks down practical ways shift workers can improve their sleep habits, recover better, and get more out of the hours they actually have available to sleep.

Anthony and Sleep Sergeant discuss sleep routines, working nights, recovery, fatigue, and why better sleep can have an impact on everything from your workouts and energy levels to your performance on the job.

If you work when everyone else sleeps, this episode is for you.

Fitness. Discipline. Longevity.

A Counter Culture Inc. Podcast Network production.
