Man vs Mind is a brutally honest, often funny, and always relatable men’s mental health podcast about the things men feel but rarely talk about.
Tim and J are two ordinary blokes trying to make sense of their own heads – anxiety, anger, confidence, fatherhood, stress, medication, relationships, intrusive thoughts, and the day-to-day stuff most men brush off. No experts, no preachy advice, no five-step solutions. Just real conversation about real feelings and the stupid sh*t going on in our heads.
The message is simple: you are not alone. When you hear someone else say the thing you’ve quietly struggled with, it cuts through the noise and loneliness and makes your beautiful mess feel a bit more manageable. That’s what this show is for.
Some of it is silly, some of it is uncomfortable, and some of it is painfully truthful – but it’s exactly the kind of honesty men aren’t taught to share. If you want a podcast where men actually talk about what’s going on in their minds, without bravado or judgement, this is it.

Christmas time, mistletoe and… panic attacks.
In this festive episode of Man vs Mind, Tim and J get properly honest about Christmas – not just the cosy fairy lights version, but the pressure, money stress and forced fun that come with it. They talk about trying to keep the magic alive for their kids (and the emotional gymnastics of the whole Father Christmas lie), the logistics of in-laws and long-haul family politics, and why the build-up to the big day can feel heavier than the day itself.
They get into Secret Santas, gift-giving anxiety, being skint in December, office Christmas music wars, broken trees, exploding lights, and that weird guilt that comes with presents you never use but can’t quite throw away. And, because it’s still Man vs Mind, they land on the small, quiet moments that actually make Christmas feel worth it – kids in terrible Christmas pyjamas, twinkly lights, croissants and coffee, and seeing how much the people you love love this time of year.
Oh and Tim's radical idea for making Christmas more manageable for parents...
There’s also a Patreon-only Man vs Mind Uncut bit after the main episode – no ads, and some extra chat. If you want to support the show and get the full thing every time, head to patreon.com/manvsmindpod.
