In this episode we break down the growing conversation around the “male loneliness epidemic”:  what’s true, what’s misleading, and what the research actually says. This is a complex and controversial topic, but one that deserves a clear, evidence-based perspective.


Why has loneliness been declared a global health crisis?


How the global loneliness epidemic differs from the male loneliness epidemic 


Are men actually the lonelier gender? 
The role of patriarchy, the manosphere, scapegoating, and in-group/out-group psychology 


The consequences  for both men and women


Healthy, proactive approaches to tackling loneliness in society 

Plus, so much more! Drop your thoughts below.
