Whiskey and Ry https://pcr.apple.com/id1262977804 Healthy Masculinity for Today’s Modern Man. Wed, 19 Mar 2025 03:00:00 -0700 https://podbean.com/?v=5.5 en Copyright 2017. All rights reserved. Ryan C. Brown. Education:Self-Improvement 1440 episodic Over the past 5 years host, Ryan Charles Brown has given over 7,500 Uber/Lyft rides around the city of Los Angeles. In this time, he heard stories from people traveling in from all parts of the world. Some of the stories that were shared included, rites of passage into “manhood”, what it might mean to “be a man” today and in the future, and how can men participate in dismantling toxic masculinity? Then one night, while sipping some whiskey at a bar with a friend, Whiskey & Ry was born. The Social Club we are building seeks a conversation that would cross multiple boundaries and build bridges into areas of conversation that have been “cut off” by the traditional interpretation of masculinity and what it means to be a man today. Whiskey & Ry provides a pathway into an honest, vulnerable, and courageous dialogue about topics that will both interest and challenge listeners to think deeper into ways in which men can be a part of the movement to promote men's self-care and healthy expressions of masculinity.

They explore Peter's personal experiences growing up in Belfast, the impact of his childhood on his understanding of masculinity, and the societal pressures surrounding male identity. The discussion delves into themes of death, mental health, and the complexities of masculine and feminine energies, ultimately questioning the limitations of labeling masculinity as an identity. This conversation delves into the complexities of masculinity and femininity, exploring how societal expectations shape male identity and desire. The speakers discuss the challenges men face in modern society, including the need for positive role models, the impact of despair and isolation, and the importance of male friendships. They emphasize the necessity of risk-taking and emotional engagement in overcoming feelings of worthlessness and despair, ultimately advocating for a deeper understanding of male experiences and the need for connection. In this conversation, the speakers delve into the complexities of dating, relationships, and desire in contemporary society, particularly in the context of Los Angeles. They explore how societal changes have affected dating dynamics, the evolving grammar of relationships, and the role of desire in human experience. The discussion also touches on masculinity, the importance of sacrifice, and the need for rituals in navigating life's challenges. Ultimately, the conversation highlights the intricate interplay between desire, identity, and the human condition.

Nick shares with us how he and his wife, Whitney, came to the decision together, and what it was like to endure the highs and lows of getting good news followed by the heartbreak of getting the worst news any parents can get. But the story doesn't end there for the Warnes! They have a beautiful son, Lee, and are both finding happiness with the blessings they have today. But do they want to give the process another go? You will have to tune in and find out! Thanks Nick for coming on and sharing your story!----more----

If men are introduced to their own sexuality before they know what to do with it, as I was, the chances of them having issues with their sexual expression as adults could be substantial. But that is not an excuse to do nothing about it. Men can learn how to express themselves in a manner that is healthy and does not harm another person. 

We take on the deep topics on this show and this episode is proof nothing is off limits if it will allow for growth and maturity to take place.

I am so grateful for her time and enjoyed every minute of our conversation! I sat down to record this episode with Dr. Caroline a few months back.

Over the past 3 years, Ryan Charles Brown, has given over 5,000 Uber rides around the city of Los Angeles. In this time, he has shared his “coming of age” story with people from all around the world, while also hearing stories from their upbringing as they travel towards a final destination. Some of the items discussed were: rites of passage into “manhood”, what it might mean to “be a man” today and in the future, and how can men participate in dismantling toxic masculinity? Then one night, while sipping some whiskey at a bar with a friend, Whiskey & Ry was born.

After the end of The Mission Podcast, Ryan was seeking a new conversation that would cross multiple boundaries and build bridges into areas of conversation that have been “cut off” by the traditional interpretation of masculinity and what it means to be a man today. Whiskey & Ry provides a pathway into honest, vulnerable and courageous dialogue about topics that will both interest and challenge listeners to think deeper into ways in which men can be a part of the movement to dismantle toxic masculinity.
