171) Max Dickins - Time to Talk about Male Loneliness

Today’s conversation is with Max Dickins. Max is a comedian, writer and a mental health advocate. Loneliness increases risk of early death by 26%. This risk is comparable to smoking 15 cigarettes a day, and is higher than that caused by obesity and physical inactivity. And men are suffering worse than ever. This is having a negative impact on their partners, their employers, their children and society as a whole. Expect to learn how Max’s own experience of having no best man led to him writing Billy No Mates, how men's loneliness differs from female loneliness, men’s reliance on their female partners for a social life, the evolutionary explanation for shallower male friendships, and why contributing to a project and doing tasks is crucial for bonding among men. You’ll also hear about how opening up differs from manning up, the value of friendships at work, and the impact of remote working. Today’s podcast is sponsored by Propane Fitness.
