About this listen

Jake (23) and Ben (21) were both bereaved of a parent and struggled with their grief during their teenage years. In this episode, they explore the feelings of isolation, anger, and wanting to remove the stigma of asking for help as a young man. The conversation covers acting as the ‘class clown’, getting into trouble, and coping with milestones like college, graduation, and the idea of becoming a dad one day.
