The best interviewer. Brett does his homework and keeps it tight. I’ve been listening for years and in my life this podcast has created tremendous value. Thanks.

This show could be called “the art of being a well rounded human being” or “the art of nontoxic masculinity.” Brett finds amazing authors and other guests to discuss various topics, most of which are equally applicable to men and women. With so much toxicity out there these days, this show is a...Read full review »

I enjoy AOM so much. Brett finds topics that resonate with me each week. Sometimes I go back and relisten to shows that resonated with me. AOM is my go-to podcast.

Ive listened to AOM for years. I really appreciate Brett’s evolution of thought and palette of guests. There is a formula to the show, but it always stays fresh and relevant to the times.

I love this show. It presents a path to non-toxic masculinity that is refreshing and inspiring. Thanks, Brett and Kate, for all the wonderful work you do.

Not all of the podcasts are for me, but I can figure that out just by reading titles. Every one that I listen to is awesome. I like is frame that he views the world in.

I have been listening or reading AOM media for so long it feels like it’s a part of who I am. I will turn 48 next year and it’s just been a wonderful experience to have this exquisite resource for education, motivation, and general entertainment.

Very informative episode with Darren Candow on benefits of creatine, especially ensuring to cover the possible concerns about creatinine levels and kidney health. I appreciated this input as a medical provider. Thanks for digging a bit deeper. High quality questions from Brett.

Love the show, hate the jazzy intro music and skip it 100% of the time. Maybe consider changing it up?
LLuvCoolJane via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/02/24
I enjoy the podcast but some of the episodes profile people so unique that one gets the impression that anyone can duplicate what the person he interviews has done or the accomplishments of people who are given as examples. Not mentioned are the vast majority who are not exceptions to the rule. ...Read full review »

I have been a fan of Brett’s website for many years. “How to jump out of a moving car” is one of my all-time favorite articles from AOM that I have forwarded to many, many men that lack this skill…… Over the last year or so, I started listening to a few Podcasts instead of sports talk all day...Read full review »

AOM is the only podcast I’ve consistently listened to over the past 5 years. Brett really does his homework with each guest, coming prepared with great questions and asking great follow-up questions too. Virtually every episode is intelligent, thought-provoking conversation. I love the breadth of...Read full review »

Been listening for years. I’m a better man for this podcast and all the content AOM offers
Bobby Angel via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/11/24
Brett’s a gifted interviewer. While even just having read and thought about his guests’ works prior the interview puts him ahead of the pack, he also always asks the right questions and provides enough of his own thought to ensure a meaningful discussion. I come away feeling that I understand the...Read full review »

Great quality podcast, well researched and thoughtful questions, I like how you are so thorough and are always looking for understanding the nuances of situations, thank you for your hard work, progressively working through you early podcasts, still very relevant, helpful and occasional humorous.
Red Schuhart via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 07/31/24
I’ve benefited from the AoM podcast for a few years now. I love the approach to conversation and the appetite for action. One thing I really love is Brett’s even-handed approach which allows the listener to take it or leave it when it comes to the content. This podcast supports me to become the...Read full review »
kennybuoy via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 07/28/24
This podcast fills a niche that takes multiple other podcasts to even attempt. The breadth of topics mean everyone has a chance to benefit, and although geared towards men I’ve never felt like the lessons learned were solely about archetypal manliness, and more about being the best “you”. As a...Read full review »
Dr. TJV via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/13/24
This is one of the very, very few podcasts where the attention is on the person being interviewed and the information they can share with the listener. So many other podcasters use the platform just to talk about themselves and I stop listening after an episode or two. In contrast, Brett keeps...Read full review »

I’ve learned, been motivated, and helped others by way of this podcast. As a commuter and podcast junkie, the McKay’s are a breath of fresh air. Thanks for continuing to put out great content, new and historical.
J.T. Floyd via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/06/24
Brett and team have been an example for how to stay a constant learner. Enjoyable, informative, and a great sieve for the bloat of content that’s out there.
Man’s Man via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/01/24
An outstanding podcast for two reasons. First, the interviews: Brett reads every book for each interview; this practice allows him to ask detailed questions of each interview subject. Even better, he reads the books with charity, which means that he gives each book a full and fair hearing. He...Read full review »
SusieS27 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/30/24
As an old duffer I have listened to virtually every one of Brett’s interviews since the beginning. I have only heard one that wasn’t a five star and that was because of the interviewee, herself. A wide variety of topics that he makes interesting even as I start thinking that I won’t like. Keeps...Read full review »

Just2020in via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/23/24
This is my all time favourite podcast with every episode leaving me inspired and challenged to be a better man. The topics are are of such relevance that I frequently find myself referencing episodes during conversations. Thanks Brett and Kate for 1000 episodes of the Art of Manliness!
Tamworthian1 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 06/23/24
In a world where the idea of being ‘a man’ is increasingly warped by alt right, conspiracy weirdos, the Art of Manliness is a constant source of well thought, balanced conversation on so many great topics. The idea of manliness is through education.
Scott C, Glasgow via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/22/24
Brett & Katie - Outstanding work hitting 1,000 episodes which represent, I'm sure, tens of thousands of hours of behind the scenes work! You've served the listeners well by providing thoughtful, highly practical content that has helped make us better people! Huzzah! To 1,000 more!Read full review »

What a milestone! I started with AOM when I was wrapping up Highschool, 2007/8. So many interests and influences have come and gone in that time but AOM persists because of the quality; content; timeliness; and timelessness of what Bret and K produce.
UWS14 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/19/24
Brett is always inspiring, genuine, and does it with class (at a time when class feels like it’s gone out of style). Excellent material for manly men in the modern era. Thank you Brett! - Random Guy in TX

As a woman in her late 50s, I’m not even sure how or when or why I started listening to this podcast. I can say - I love it !! Interesting, entertaining, informative, I often discover something I want to share with my son, husband or friend. Thank you for providing quality content.

Fascinating variety of topics in a show I never miss.
