The Next Man Up

In this episode of The Next Man Up, host Coral Osborne sits down with renowned clinical psychologist and sex therapist David Ley for a candid and thought-provoking conversation about sexuality, pornography, relationships, desire, shame, and the misconceptions that continue to shape modern sexual culture. Drawing from decades of clinical work and research, David challenges popular narratives around porn addiction, sexual shame, monogamy, infidelity, kink, and sexual diversity while offering a nuanced perspective on what actually drives healthy sexual behavior.

Together, they explore the psychology behind cuckolding, hotwifing, and stag-vixen dynamics, the role of attachment and trust in unconventional relationships, why shame often fuels sexual struggles more than sexuality itself, and how society's failure to teach sexual communication leaves many people navigating intimacy without the tools they need. The conversation also dives into porn literacy, male emotional health, modern dating, rejection, consent, sexual negotiation, and the importance of approaching sexuality with curiosity rather than judgment. What unfolds is a fascinating examination of the ways sex, identity, relationships, and personal growth are deeply intertwined.

In this episode of The Next Man Up, Coral interviews yoga teacher Will Blunderfield about modern masculinity, sexual shame, and practices he teaches such as sexual kung fu, semen retention, sexual transmutation, and “solo cultivation” as an alternative to NoFap-style abstinence. Will links frequent ejaculation and porn habits to low energy and describes techniques for staying below orgasm, moving arousal through the body, sounding, and “dearmoring” the penis and testicles to build a shame-free self-sensory system. 

They discuss gay panic, male bonding, hazing as a distorted initiation ritual, historical examples of same-sex bonding, and how Abrahamic religious influence suppressed genital-based spirituality. Coral shares her background in sex work, celibacy, embodiment work, and vulnerability, while Will demonstrates Daoist “six healing sounds,” outlines in-person men’s rituals, and lists where to find his work online.

In this episode of The Next Man Up, host Coral Osborne sits down with Connor Beaton, founder of ManTalks, for a raw and wide-ranging conversation about men’s work, shame, vulnerability, relationships, sex, purpose, and the hidden emotional lives many men are carrying. Connor shares how hitting rock bottom, lying, infidelity, addiction-adjacent patterns, and a life of moral incongruence led him into deep therapeutic and Jungian work that eventually became the foundation for helping men build more honest, grounded lives.

Together, they explore why confession is often the first step toward real change, why men may resist vulnerability, how shame shapes desire and intimacy, the Madonna/Whore complex, the mother wound, attachment trauma, initiation, male loneliness, rejection, commitment, and what women often misunderstand about men. What unfolds is part men’s work masterclass, part relationship autopsy, and part honest reckoning with the stories men inherit, the truths they hide, and the work required to become more whole.
