Pete sits down with Tom Davis, BAFTA winning comedian, writer and actor.

From dismantling the myth of the ‘alpha male’ to navigating anxiety, burnout and sobriety, this episode explores what happens when the man the world expects you to be doesn’t match how you actually feel inside.

Tom opens up about fatherhood and responsibility, the role humour has played in masking vulnerability, and why intention (not image) is what really defines a good man.

Tom’s Spudgun 2026 tour has officially begun, with dates up and down the country all year long.
