ManTFup Podcast

In this episode of the ManTFUp podcast KimmyB & Lenny are having a conversation about the teaching of History and why it’s critical that we teach ALL of it!

Why is it so hard for people to hear the actual facts of our history? What is it about truth that is so upsetting? How do we truly move forward if we can’t acknowledge our past? In a time when we are so divided as a nation, can we truly expect people to find common ground without first trying to understand where “the other side” is coming from? 

With so much focus and discussion on questions like these and on what should and shouldn’t be taught or said in schools, especially as it pertains to our history as Nation, we thought it was the right time to finally have this discussion on the podcast…so get ready ‘cuz it’s time to MANTFUP!

KimmyB and I took a week off so here is a recap teaser in case you missed any of our past episodes.

           A deep dive into how the workplace is evolving due to the ongoing BS we are dealing with. When you are talking employee’s VS employer’s there is a good chance the wavelengths might not align.

               It’s 2022 and for lots of parents & kids life is nothing like we expected it to be 20, 15, even 5yrs ago.  Baby Boomers & Gen X parents dedicated themselves to providing their kids with a “better life” & “more” than they had growing up & while many did just that…they’re now finding themselves wondering…WTF HAPPENED TO MY KIDS (and their kids)?!

We’ve all heard the complaints about the subsequent generations (Millenials/GenZ they’re talking about you) lacking motivation, work ethic, the ability to rise above failure, & accountability leaving one to wonder when, in fact, do parents cross the line from support & encouragement & care to enabling & in some cases even cripling their children with regards to real life aka “adulting”.

This week Lenny & KimmyB are sharing more of their personal life experiences & discussing ways for parents to love, nurture, and empower their children while also teaching them how to…MANTFUP!

Born and raised in Miami & New York up and coming comedian & actor Brittany Brave is bringing her unique style of Miami savagery, Italian crazy and self deprecating comedy to the Man Cave in this weeks episode of the ManTFUp Podcast; and we’re talking about everything from peaking in high school to domestic violence.  We also get into our ManTFUp fan favorite topic of “cancel culture”, it’s impact on society and everyday life, plus the effect it’s having on comedy and how (if at all) it factors into how comedians approach their craft.

Whether she’s taking on hecklers, dodging Cancel Culture, or advocating for domestic violence awareness, one thing is certain Brittany Brave is funny, fearless and definitely ready to ManTFUp…are You?!

You’ve probably heard the saying “college isn’t for everyone”. Well, this week Lenny & KimmyB are debating the pro’s & con’s of higher education and they’ve got lots of questions…

Is student debt worth it? Why don’t we talk about and promote vocational high schools & trade schools as much as we used to? Is college necessary? Should public universities be free? Are our colleges/universities pushing an agenda? If your kid goes off to college with one set of ideological views and returns with another is that really “brainwashing” or is that in fact education at its best; presenting new, differing, and many times conflicting ideas and viewpoints while encouraging critical analysis & free-thinking.  

There’s clearly lots to discuss and disagree about when it comes to this topic but access to quality education (this includes higher education) will forever be one of the founding principles of this great country so let’s address the ways we’re falling short & most importantly how we can make it better…you know, let’s ManTFUp!

        This week on the ManTFUP podcast Lenny & KimmyB sit down with an Instagram & OF favorite, Darla Pursley, for an interesting conversation on what it means to ManTFUp.  And yes, we’re getting into it all…Only Fans, entrepreneurship, pretty girl privilege, haters, stigmatization, mental health & dealing with trauma, & we may even convince Lenny to start his own OF page.  

So, get ready to Like, Subscribe, Follow and Share and most importantly…ManTFUp!

Episode 8  finds Lenny & KimmyB back in the ManCave discussing two hotly debated topics…the continued growth of America or better yet the Growth of Americans (no really it’s ridiculous) and the ever changing “size”, and quality, of our clothes. Plus we are revisiting the always relevant subject of raising kids in the 21st century and whether or not parents should be held criminally responsible for a child’s bad behavior.

Buckle Up Fam ‘cuz it’s a New Year and it’s time to ManTFUp!!!

That’s right ManTFUp fam there’s a bonafide Hollywood star joining Lenny & KimmyB in the ManCave this week! Isaac C Singleton Jr, best known for his roles in Pirates of the Caribbean & Planet of the Apes, & his incredible catalog of voiceover work, including the most hated anti-hero in the Marvel Cartoon Universe…Thanos…is in the hot seat and he’s ready to talk!

 With a career that’s spanned more than two decades, it’s safe to say Isaac knows a thing or two about Manning TF Up and getting the job done and he’s sharing stories & personal insight on pursue one’s dreams and what it takes to make it in Hollywood.  We also get into Cancel Culture, Raising Kids, Relationships, Fame, Being Big & Black in this world (he’s 6’5” & over 275lbs), & the dozens of voices that live in his head.

 People of Earth get ready ‘cuz it’s time to MAanTFUp!!!

Here on the ManTFUp podcast we like to think that the path to the middle is paved with good intentions & this week our hosts Lenny & KimmyB are pushing that theory to its limits with guest Krystal Tini.

Krystal, a Philly girl who's spent much of her adult life as a professional dancer and Celeb hair and makeup artist, has shifted her focus during the pandemic to a higher purpose…waking up the world!!! While that may sound like a lofty goal to some, Krystal has committed herself to doing the work amassing a loyal social media community by sharing insight into and about what many on the web call the Great Awakening.  Not sure what the Great Awakening is, no worries we get into that along with her opinions on everything from the food industry to masks to meditation and healing.

3 very different people with very different perspectives walked into this podcast & let's just say that finding the middle ain’t always easy…but it is entertaining!!!

Grab your popcorn & if you’re over 21 grab a drink ‘cuz you’re probably gonna need it…
