Om Podcasten

Jaemin and Gabe are childhood friends whose lives went in radically different directions. Jaemin dove into spirituality, nomadism, and communal living - while Gabe organized political movements, read nerdy history books, and got married. Yet they’ve always been able to meet somewhere in the middle and learn from each other’s journeys. Join Guys with Feelings as they continue their lifelong exploration of the ideas, influences, epiphanies, and yes – the feelings – that make them better men.
