In his new podcast, Pete Wicks speaks to fellow celebrities who, like it or not, are modern male role models and he asks them if they are worthy of their status.
Pete Wicks Man Made asks what traits are they proud of, which men inspired them when growing up versus the men inspiring them now, when have they got ‘being a man’ all wrong and what rules, advice or motivation do they have for other men?
Some of Pete’s female friends will also be invited in for a chat too to find out what they consider the most important traits in a man, what are the biggest red flags and what do men just need to realise?
Guests will include music artists, actors, sport stars, politicians, broadcasters and experts. Conversations will range between the raw and emotional, intellectual and light-hearted as they reflect on their lived experiences to discover how these impacted their personal understanding of masculinity.
Pete Wicks says: “This is a podcast and project I am very proud of. It’s a deep dive into masculinity, and what it means to be a ‘modern man’.
“I am grateful to my guests, who were open, honest and up-front about their own thoughts and feelings.
“The episodes are about men, but not just for men – there are important learnings and lessons for all listeners. Podcasts have a powerful way of reaching people at the right time, and I really hope Man Made does just that.”
Pete Wicks: Man Made is a Rayo Original Podcast from Bauer Media and will be available on all podcast providers from 7 May, with new episodes released weekly on Wednesdays.
