Man vs Mind

Man vs Mind

Man vs Mind is, spoiler alert, all about what's going on inside a man’s mind. Tim and J are two average guys, one mic each, and zero shame in chatting about everything about men's mental health that they usually keep to themselves. From therapy and fatherhood to anxieties, hang-ups, obsessions, gym guilt and crying at TV ads, it’s real talk without the preach. No experts, no fixes—just honest, funny, sometimes painfully relatable conversations about the mental health stuff that sits beneath the veil of “yeah, I'm not too bad thanks.” We're trying to normalise guys talking about their mental health, and if what we're doing helps just one other man feel like they're able to just... I dunno... chat about what's going on in their head, then that's mission accomplished as far as we're concerned. We hope you'll enjoy the ride as we deep dive inside the mind of the average guy. Disclaimer: neither of us are mental health professionals, we don't dispense psychological advice, just anecdotes and perhaps a bit of taboo-busting as we chat about the things that don't normally get said.

We'd love to hear from you – the good, the bad, the hilarious, the savage – anything! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

If there’s a better way to get back at your school bully than by inadvertently hooking up with his sister… we haven’t found it yet.


It goes without saying (but we’ll say it anyway) that this week’s episode contains adult themes and strong language.


This week, we’re diving into the messy world of external validation — where it starts, why we chase it, and how it ends up quietly shaping our perception of body image, and how we ...

A quick heads up of what you can expect in the second part of our mini-series into Body Image.


We've got the results from a poll we ran with listeners on their Body Image issues, J reveals his biggest hang-ups from his earlier years, Tim explains how he got back at his school bullies, and a listener message absolutely stops us in our tracks.

The first of a four-part mini-series. Let’s take a look in the mirror.


After taking The First Step in Episode 1 and learning to open up in Man vs Talking (Episode 2), this week we kick off a brand new four-part mini-series on something a lot of us quietly battle with: body image.


In Part 1, we’re looking inward — the stuff we carry about how we see ourselves. From childhood bullying and emotional eating, to gym floor anxiety ...

Why is it easier to slap your mate on a stag do than tell him you’re struggling?


In this episode of Man vs Mind, Tim and J get into the weird world of male vulnerability—from awkward networking events and silent commutes to the emotional gymnastics of saying “Yeah not too bad.”


There’s chat about shame, office euphemisms, and why asking for help feels harder than public speaking.

In this episode of Man vs Mind, Tim and J get stuck into the messy, honest stuff around male mental health—anxiety, therapy, ADHD, body image, emotional eating, and why it’s so hard for blokes to just say, “I’m struggling.”


They talk about starting new jobs, navigating fatherhood, dyslexia, medication, and why silence can sometimes say more than words. Oh—and J casually drops the time he found himself at gunpoint in India during...
