Join Brendan and Richard, two long-time friends with over 20 years of camaraderie, as they dive into unfiltered conversations from the middle-aged male perspective. Every week, they gather in the workshop to indulge in snacks, beer, and candid discussions about the big and not-so-big issues of the day.

"Middle Aged Man Talk" is more than just a podcast—it's a raw, honest, and sometimes emotional exploration of topics often left untouched by mainstream media. From career struggles to relationships, and everything in between, Brendan and Richard bring their unique blend of honesty, criticism, and levity to each episode.
