“Man Up? Or Heal Up? — Men’s Mental Health Matters”

This week on A Pod Named Kickback, No Brakes Nu welcomes back Mr. Man Up Monday himself — Randy T — for a powerful conversation on Men’s Mental Health Month. The crew gets real about what it means to be a man battling silent struggles: from being told “don’t cry” as boys, to unlearning that conditioning as grown men. Nu opens up about his own mental health journey — from dark moments and suicidal thoughts to finding healing through therapy, Tupac’s music, and real support. They dive into how to show up for the men in your life, how anger often masks pain, and why acknowledging emotion is strength — not weakness. The episode also touches on Antonio Brown’s spiral, Ketanji Brown Jackson’s policy debates, fake pregnancies, and the reality of people going hungry due to delayed benefits. It’s an open, honest kickback centered on one truth: Black men deserve to heal too ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
