Why Are Men So Lonely? Jack Guinness On Friendship, Masculinity & Finding Your People | The SLMan Podcast29 okt46 min

<p>Why are men finding it harder to make friends and has Britain developed a problem with ambition?This week on the SL Man Podcast, Harvey and Tunde are joined by author, broadcaster and presenter Jack Guinness for a candid conversation about modern masculinity, male loneliness, personal style and what it really means to be successful.</p><p>Jack shares his thoughts on why ambition can feel uncomfortable in Britain, why we should celebrate people who want more from life and how our attitudes towards success shape the way we see ourselves. The conversation also turns to male friendship, the realities of making meaningful connections as an adult and why finding your people matters more than ever.</p><p>Elsewhere, Jack discusses creating ‘The Queer Bible’, the importance of understanding queer history and why representation and visibility are so important. He also reflects on the relationship between identity and personal style, from dressing for yourself rather than following trends to whether modern menswear is becoming too uniform. Expect honest opinions, plenty of humour and a thoughtful conversation about friendship, identity, ambition and finding confidence in who you are.</p><p><br /></p><p>Get SheerLuxe Straight To Your Inbox, Daily | http://sheerluxe.com/signup</p><p><br /></p><p>TIMECODES:</p><p>00:19 – Meet Jack Guinness: author, broadcaster &amp; host of The Queer Bible</p><p>02:21 – Jack's Queer podcast and the cultural moments that shape us</p><p>06:21 – Male loneliness, adult friendships &amp; finding your community</p><p>11:08 – What we're loving: Netflix films, celebrity interviews &amp; entertainment</p><p>13:54 – Is it embarrassing to be ambitious?</p><p>17:39 – Could classical music make London commuters happier?19:30 – The Elizabeth Holmes documentary everyone's talking about</p><p>22:01 – Dilemmas: should you pretend to be surprised by your surprise birthday party?</p><p>36:41 – The story behind The Queer Bible: queer history, identity &amp; belonging</p><p>41:00 – Jack's style rules: timeless dressing, fashion icons &amp; men's fashion crimes</p><p><br /></p><p>Links</p><p>PANEL</p><p>Harvey James | https://www.instagram.com/harvjam/ </p><p>Loafers | https://on.ltk.com/+vLd2d0Kpixes3d_gNyok5A</p><p><br /></p><p>Jack Guinness | https://www.instagram.com/jackguinness/ </p><p>Ralph Lauren Blazer (Similar) | https://on.ltk.com/+F5EViV-ahXWMsS-xIcqMVw</p><p>Levis Jeans | https://on.ltk.com/+XMC8bDVwlZyjp4PvUbzi3A</p><p>Drake’s Tie | https://
