The Yarns Men Podcast

The Yarns Men are sparking honest yarns and foster connection for working age men. This podcast is about sharing those good yarns.

Episode 50 is a reflective yarn from Matthew Steans pulling together what we’ve learned from 49 episodes with Kiwi blokes. We revisit the 4 Yarns Men questions and explore themes like being straight up with yourself, showing up for your mates, figuring out what actually matters, staying present at home, and getting to know your inner noise. These are the moments that stuck with us, and they’ve been boiled down into 8 key takeaways for working age men.
