THE AMONGST MEN FORMAT

THE EXPERIENCE

What happens when men stop performing.

WHAT IS AMONGST MEN?

Real quotes overheard before stepping on stage

"Sometimes I don't know if I'm happy or just providing."
"I love my kids, but sometimes I wonder if I'm a good father."
"I've made more money than I ever imagined and still felt empty."
"There are things my boys know about me that my wife doesn't."
"There are things my woman knows that my boys don't."
"Sometimes I don't want advice. I just want somebody to ask if I'm good."

Now imagine all of that in one room. Welcome to Amongst Men.

THE NIGHT'S JOURNEY

HOW THE EVENING UNFOLDS

1

FIRST, WE LAUGH.

Zack "Raz" Johnson opens the night with standup comedy. Because laughter is how strangers drop their guards and become a room.

Walls down. Everyone laughing. Together.
2

THEN WE GO THERE.

Comedy opens the room. What comes next is raw, unscripted truth. No polished PR statements. Real men talking through real life.

Sex, Money, Fatherhood, Ego, Faith, Healing.

AND THEN... SHE GETS THE MIC.

She's been listening the whole time. The live Amongst Men Podcast kicks off immediately after. One man. One chair. No preparation.

"What the hell just happened in this room?"

The Amongst Men Podcast host — She's the host now
Live

The Amongst Men Podcast

She's the host now.

The crew sits with one man. She runs the room.

The room never clears.

This isn't the after-party — it's part of the show. The live Amongst Men Podcast kicks off the moment the show ends. Same men, same night, same room. Nothing gets cleaned up. The cameras keep rolling.

One man. The chair is his.

Whoever drops the question that makes the whole room stop — that's who sits down. The crew sits with him and they talk it all the way through. No preparation. That's the only way in.

She's the host. She's in charge.

The woman is now the host. She takes the mic to help unpack all of it — the bullshit and the wisdom — and move the room forward. She calls out what's true and cuts clean through what's not. Nothing rehearsed. Nothing off the record.

The show is the conversation. She's the one who takes it forward.
