In Part Two of our conversation with Ollie, we go deeper — into parenting teenage boys in a digital age, the slow creep of manosphere nonsense, and how to talk to your kids without triggering the “opposite of whatever Dad wants” instinct.

Then the episode shifts. Rich and Marc open up about losing their friend Frank young, and Ollie shares the story of his best friend Doug, who died from Motor Neurone Disease at 32. What follows is a raw, honest look at grief, guilt, the ways men avoid emotion, and how losing someone in your 30s radically reshapes your midlife.

It’s heavy, funny, warm, painful, and very real — exactly the kind of conversation men rarely have, but desperately need.
