In this special Movember kickoff episode, Boysen Hodgson sits down with senior researcher Brian Heilman to unpack The Real Face of Men’s Health—Movember’s most ambitious report to date. They dive into why men’s health is a social issue, not just a personal one, and why caregiving, connection, and mental health are central to building a better future for men and the people who love them.
Brian shares surprising—and sobering—data on life expectancy, the loneliness epidemic, caregiving burdens, and suicide rates across racial and geographic lines. Together, they explore what the data tells us about modern masculinity and how men can break free from outdated norms to live longer, healthier, and more connected lives.
This episode is an urgent call to action for men to show up—not just for themselves, but for the people who need them. And yes, it’s time to grow that mustache.
