Description


Manhood is not merely a product of biology, but rather the result of maturing, learning, and experience. While being born male is a matter of genetics, becoming a man is a matter of choice. The GreatMan Podcast is here to equip men to make that choice by uniquely combining three diverse perspectives, blending academic insight with practical guidance to help men build greatness in every area of life. Unlike most podcasts, we tackle a single topic over two weeks: the first episode–“The Talk”–offers a broad overview led by New York Times bestselling author, Stephen Mansfield, while the following episode–“The Build”–focuses on practical steps led by men’s coaches, Anthony Flemons and JT McCraw, to integrate the theme into daily life. In all that we do, we believe that males are born, and men are built.

Men can be stubborn when it comes to their health, and ironically, it ends up being to their own demise. We want men to be strong, vibrant, and healthy to rise to the needs of their generation. Men, do not wait to get in shape, schedule a physical exam, or address long-standing health issues...because you never know when it will be too late.LEARN MORE:Website: https://greatman.tv/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greatman.tv/ Support GreatMan: https://greatman.tv/greatman-global/ See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Today, JT and Producer Jonas dive into the idea of personal branding—not for a business, but for your life. Just like a company (e.g. Cracker Barrel), you are known by your values, consistency, and the way you show up both in private and public. Discover how to clarify your identity, resist chasing trends, and build a personal brand of consistency, rooted in long-term respect rather than short-term applause.LEARN MORE:Website: https://greatman.tv/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greatman.tv/Support GreatMan: https://greatman.tv/greatman-global/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
When times of crisis arise, it is our responsibility as men not to fan the flames, nor extinguish them, but to contain them. We must learn the art of becoming non-combustible material in a world that is so prone to combustion. Are you praying more than protesting? Are you building more than burning? All of these questions, and more, are examined in this critical episode of the GreatMan Podcast.LEARN MORE:Website: https://greatman.tv/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greatman.tv/Support GreatMan: https://greatman.tv/greatman-global/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
In this special episode of The GreatMan Podcast, Stephen reflects on the life and legacy of Charlie Kirk following his tragic assassination.

Ultimately, this conversation challenges men to learn from Charlie’s example—embracing courage and conviction in their own lives, rising to meet the needs of our generation.LEARN MORE:Website: https://greatman.tv/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greatman.tv/Support GreatMan: https://greatman.tv/greatman-global/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Cracker Barrel's disastrous rebranding headlines came about because of one core issue: they forgot who they were. And just like this multi-billion-dollar organization, men can do the same. How are you reminded of who you are and who you are called to be? If you don't have anyone or anything reflecting noble vision into your life, the world will hijack your purpose, and consequently, your impact. Men, let us remind each other of who we are and empower one another to live out our callings.LEARN MORE:Website: https://greatman.tv/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greatman.tv/ Support GreatMan: https://greatman.tv/greatman-global/ See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
In all that a man does, he has a choice.Today, JT and Anthony dive into the core battle every man faces: responsibility versus passivity. From Adam in the garden to the choices we make today, men often elect to disengage and mask it with blame—but re-engaging begins with humility, consistency, and love in action. Stay in the fight, rejecting passivity, embracing responsibility, and living as the engaged man you are created to be.LEARN MORE:Website: https://greatman.tv/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greatman.tv/Support GreatMan: https://greatman.tv/greatman-global/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Unengaged men have become a plague in our generation, drifting through life instead of leading it. These men are often fearful, not understanding their responsibilities nor the power they have to make a difference in the world. True transformation begins when a man accepts his responsibilities and intentionally steps into his role. In this episode, Stephen calls men to show up, lead with purpose, and model the change they want to see.LEARN MORE:Website: https://greatman.tv/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greatman.tv/Support GreatMan: https://greatman.tv/greatman-global/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Men are dying slowly instead of living fully. The irony of this truth is that in this time in history, there more ways than ever to stay active, but more excuses than ever to neglect physical activity. Are you living to promote longevity? And more importantly, are you willing to be held accountable to your wellness goals, and to hold other men accountable? Join the challenge as JT and Anthony discuss the weapon of movement against the plague of complacency.LEARN MORE:Website: https://greatman.tv/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greatman.tv/Support GreatMan: https://greatman.tv/greatman-global/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Have you learned to tolerate weaknesses and vices? Have you come to a place of complacency or hopelessness in the area of physical health? Men, it is our time and our duty to challenge and support each other in our quest for well-being. To change our times, we must use more than our words, our thoughts, and our resources; we need our physical fitness as a foundation to turn the tide of a spiraling generation.LEARN MORE:Website: https://greatman.tv/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greatman.tv/Support GreatMan: https://greatman.tv/greatman-global/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
You are not an accident. In fact, you were designed intentionally for this time in history. Yet so often, you can get so caught up in WHAT you do that you forget WHO you are. Listen in as JT and Anthony zoom out to discuss their individual purposes and how you can begin to walk out yours. Every day is an opportunity to take a small step toward your destiny. What will you do today?LEARN MORE:Website: https://greatman.tv/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greatman.tv/Support GreatMan: https://greatman.tv/greatman-global/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Men are made to think about destiny—but most rarely stop to define it. In this episode, Stephen challenges you to look beyond your daily duties and ask: "Why am I alive right now?" Every season of a man’s life carries a unique purpose, and greatness begins when you recognize the reason you're in this era—and rise to meet it.LEARN MORE:Website: https://greatman.tv/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greatman.tv/ Support GreatMan: https://greatman.tv/greatman-global/ See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Fatherhood in the digital age demands more than presence—it demands vision. Continuing on the conversation about the recent Netflix series, "Adolescence," Anthony and JT confront the modern challenges facing boys today and call men to rise with intentionality, emotional leadership, and a clear strategy for their families.

In this episode, Anthony and JT challenge you to inspect the internal voices shaping your decisions—and to intentionally choose the men you want influencing your life.

Who keeps you accountable to your principles? In this episode, Stephen recounts a memorable moment from a call with his band of brothers that left him in awe of the commitment they share.

How much laughter lives within your close male relationships? Continuing on Stephen's topic of smack talk, Anthony and JT lay out how they personally navigate their banter, being conscious to know the line, read the room, and follow up when joking around.
