The West-side of Manhood

Welcome to "The Idea of Manhood," a space where the evolving concept of manhood is explored, challenged, and redefined. Mike Andrews (FiveMikes), the creator of this platform, embodies the 5 identities that are critical to his manhood journey: Husband, Father, Educator, Writer, MC. 

This platform is more than just a website or a podcast; it's a movement. It's about creating spaces where men can be vulnerable, empathetic, and kind – where the narrative of manhood is continuously crafted and recrafted by our experiences, our struggles, and our victories.
