The Modern Mann

Olly Mann hosts this British Podcast Award-winning show alongside Alix Fox and Ollie Peart, and the three of them bring wildly different energy to each monthly episode. Olly handles the long-form interviews, Alix runs a segment on sex and relationships that is genuinely informative rather than clickbaity, and Ollie tests out trends and experiences so you do not have to. The result feels like a magazine for your ears, and a pretty good one at that. Episodes vary in length from about 25 minutes up to nearly two hours depending on the story. Recent ones have featured an earthquake survivor recounting his rescue, a deep look into corporate espionage involving a banker and a billionaire, and the story of Matthew Cordle, who confessed to a fatal DUI on YouTube before turning himself in. The show consistently finds people with genuinely extraordinary stories and gives them enough time to tell them properly. The production quality is a cut above most interview shows. Matt Hill produces, and you can hear the care that goes into sound design and pacing. It drops monthly, which means each episode feels like an event rather than background noise. If you are looking for something that treats modern masculinity as a subject worth exploring with curiosity instead of anxiety, and you appreciate British wit mixed with real substance, The Modern Mann is worth adding to your rotation.
