“Have you ever noticed that when life finally gets calm, you find a way to stir up drama?” asks Marc Azoulay, psychotherapist and host of the Men’s Therapy Podcast. In this episode, Azoulay unpacks a deeply rooted issue many men face: self-sabotage.
From quitting stable jobs to picking fights in good relationships, men often create chaos just when things appear to be steady. According to Azoulay, this behaviour is not about seeking peace but about being hooked on stress: “You’re not addicted to winning. You’re addicted to the struggle.”
Azoulay reveals how cortisol addiction and the constant pursuit of conflict are shaping the lives of men. Especially those who equate success with endless battles. This pattern is leaving many men restless, unfulfilled, and disconnected from true meaning.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
