A shocking number of podcasts don’t last 10 episodes. But the Better Man Podcast—which has been extremely valuable for my personal growth as well as our listeners—finally reached an important milestone:

The 100th episode!

A topic that gets mentioned on every episode of the Better Man Podcast is simple: How you can become a better man.

But until today, we’ve never had the ability to really pull back the analytics and examine the cold, hard data. That’s why I invited Ben Wigert and Mike Ritz from Gallup. For the past 89 years, Gallup has found analytical insights and trends about how to become happier, what makes someone more fulfilled, and how you can become more content with your life (despite the various struggles we all battle).

Here’s a harsh truth: Getting old sucks. It’s easier to get hurt. You feel more sore more often. Little aches and pain become more pronounced and harder to ignore. But worst of all: You can’t workout like you used to when you were younger (unless you want to injure yourself). That’s the bad news.

The good news? In today’s show, I reveal my top 5 tips for staying fit and injury-free as you get older. Here’s a taste of what I cover in this episode: 

There is a certain epidemic that’s strangling men’s mental and emotional health. But since it’s sneakier for men than it is for women, many mental health clinicians don’t even know how to spot the signs.

I’m referring to depression, isolation, and a lack of connection with other men.

Men are lonelier than perhaps ever before. But we experience depressive symptoms in a more subtle way than women—and this further exacerbates our mental health.
