40+ Gay Men. Gay Talk.

What you should be talking about, but aren't.

Be The Gay Man You Are.
No Excuses,
No Fears,
No Apologies.

Let's get real. Dump the gay stereotypes that society has thrown on us. Quit following the rules of what being a "gay man" is supposed to be. It's time for you to own up, man up, and show up the way that you're meant to...your way!

If you feel vulnerable, be vulnerable. Tired of carry pretending you've got it all figured out, then stop. Want more than the corner office prestige? Tired of the constant hooking up or lack of sex? Wishing you had a relationship, but never getting there? Then do something about it that is more than fabulous lip service.

It's time for you to make your bold move, stop sugar coating your bullshit, ask for help, take some scary risks, go ahead and wallow in the unknown, and start living life on your terms.

40 Plus: Gay Men. Gay Talk. The podcast where being naked with ourselves get's us off in life, not just in the moment.

Each week, host Rick Clemons, dives in with raw, real talk about gay men's man junk, and yes, every once in awhile we will even talk about that junk between your legs. From sex and relationships, to fears and vulnerabilities, career challenges to body image, it's a no holds barred approach guaranteed to get you uncomfortable in your gay self, so you can strip away the toxic, stereotypical rules we gay guys think we're supposed by in the world.

It's a no excuses, no fears, no apologies approach to for being a gay guy over 40!

Internalized Homophobia and all that Jazz – Seth Vermilyea

Sometimes you get slapped upside the face with your stuff and you didn’t really realize it was sitting there in the corner of your mind just waiting to hit ya! Those things that you’re like, “No, no, no, no, no. This is not me, this not how I am supposed to show up!” Low and...

Yeah that mind is meant to be mindful! – Will Schneider

Ok, I’m going to be honest. I met him on an island in Bermuda. I was drawn to him. I saw things in him that I wanted. And, no I wasn’t some gay guy crushing on a handsome straight guy…well maybe a little. Truth is, I was drawn to his mindfulness and masculinity. His name...

Making Space For Men To Be Men – Rick Clemons

There are amazing things you learn when you get a group of men together to be vulnerable. They are either one, upping each other, or being very tight lipped about what they really want to be saying. It’s how we’ve been conditioned as men. But what happens when you make space for guys to be...

Kindness and the Masculinity Factor – Rocco Cozza

He’s a Jersey boy, an attorney, and built pretty much like a tank. First thoughts? He’s an Alpha Male. In reality he does have a book with alpha in the name and he’s also a kindness kind of guy that makes you go, “WHOA!”. So, don’t judge this book by it’s cover, Rocco Cozza dishes...

Just because you’ve got wisdom doesn’t make you old! – Brad Montgomery

“I look up to you because you are older and wiser! You have so much wisdom.” Ok! God, I feel old now. Or you could say, “Wow what a compliment!” Depending on perspective, some of us guys take that as a kick in the gut, and others of us take it as a badge of...

God I can’t believe I’m aging and turning 30, 40, 50, 100! Yeah it happens guys and I know you know that is true, but what happens when it hits you like a ton of bricks? I know, because I’ve experienced it and it wasn’t pretty. Nor was it pretty for my buddy Chris! At...

Men of Respect, RESPECT – Mike Domitriz

Aretha Franklin, just reading the word RESPECT, will start getting you all sassy in your heads. Some of you even started singing it out loud with the queen of soul. So why you are talking trash, not giving yourself and others the R-E-S-P-E-C-T that’s needed. Ok, maybe you are, but we could all do a...

Taking Ownership When You Screw Up – Gerson Sternstein

Let’s be honest. Being honest is tough for us guys. Then add admitting we’re wrong to the mix, or that we’re a screw up, and that brings on a whole other set of masculinity pushback that we guys just aren’t good at doing. Now imagine you get called out in your profession for screwing up...

Spirituality Is Such A Guy Thing – Chris Tompkins

Yes, real men (whatever that means) get spirituality. It’s not some woo-woo, out of this world thing. It’s at the core of who you are as a man. Don’t’ believe me? Fine. Not going to twist your arm, but it is true. Spirituality makes the man. Joining me to have this convo is one of...

How You, As A Man, Can Stop Shaming Men and Vulnerability

Admit it. We’ve all been shamed as men for our vulnerability and it has nothing to do with Brene’ Brown and her work around shame and vulnerability. For most of us men, we shame each other from being vulnerable. That crap needs to stop. It’s not healthy, nor is it useful for us in our...
