Would You Suck Your Partner’s Toe? Dating Icks, Celebrity Break-Ups & The Sexiest Man Alive

Why are men finding it harder to make friends and has Britain developed a problem with ambition?This week on the SL Man Podcast, Harvey and Tunde are joined by author, broadcaster and presenter Jack Guinness for a candid conversation about modern masculinity, male loneliness, personal style and what it really means to be successful. Jack shares his thoughts on why ambition can feel uncomfortable in Britain, why we should celebrate people who want more from life and how our attitudes towards success shape the way we see ourselves. The conversation also turns to male friendship, the realities of making meaningful connections as an adult and why finding your people matters more than ever. Elsewhere, Jack discusses creating ‘The Queer Bible’, the importance of understanding queer history and why representation and visibility are so important. He also reflects on the relationship between identity and personal style, from dressing for yourself rather than following trends to whether modern menswear is becoming too uniform. Expect honest opinions, plenty of humour and a thoughtful conversation about friendship, identity, ambition and finding confidence in who you are.
