Kieran and Josh torch the biggest bloke myths with a mix of evidence and straight talk—plus plenty of banter.
We cover:
Food myths:
Red wine & the 90s “French Paradox,” why eggs/yolks aren’t the villain, why protein shakes are supplements (not meals), snap-frozen veg can be more nutritious, and how 2–3 coffees can still fit hydration if you drink water too.
Fitness myths:
Cold plunges = short, meaningless T bump (but good for mood); “no pain, no gain” vs overtraining (injury risk goes up); crunches don’t spot-reduce fat; sauna is recovery, not “detox”; recreational running tends to strengthenjoints.
Relationships myths:
“Real men don’t show emotion” (why expressing it helps), “once a cheater, always a cheater” (context + change), who should pay (offer, then share—depends who’s organising), and why divorce isn’t failure if you learn and rebuild.
Grooming & bedroom myths:
Baldness genes come from both parents (treat early: finasteride + minoxidil). Men don’t think about sex every 7 seconds (more like ~19/day). “Men peak at 18” ignores strength peaking ~25–35 and emotional maturity later on.
Running gags & moments: Huberman name-drop, “swallowed a sheep,” felt sauna hats, avocado law, Northern Beaches “cougars,” and Josh’s ice bath going green.
