BEEP BEEP Mother's day special BEEP BEEP! The bros break down the impact of their mothers on their lives. Plus a recap of our favorite episodes of all time!

Former college all-American defensive back, Arena Football Champion, and Stanford Assistant coach stops by (online because social distancing) to talk about football as a vehicle for life lessons and growth, transitioning from a locker room full of men to a house full of women, giving back, and more. Plus, catch one of the hottest takes in Really Bro history.

The bros take their friendship virtual, and talk about what it means to stay close emotionally when you can't physically. In a position to give help, or in a position where you need help?

Very special guest joining us today to discuss American and International Feminism, our Bro and Brorespondent Munira! Super fun/candid conversation... also coronavirus is a thing y'all. Wash ya damn hands.

"Hey, what is this thing called love? no idea, but let's act like we know and talk about it for a little bit!" - Evan and Sammy, before this episode (probably). Seriously though, one of our favorite free form episodes, and it's on... ... ... platonic love, aw so wholesome. Also - can love be dictated by an algorithm? An expert guest weighs in. Also, happy first annual Broentine's Day!

We talk a lot about how men aren't as in touch with their own emotions as they need to be. But what happens when men only act in touch, and maintain the same toxic motives beneath the surface? The bros tackle what it means to be a "softboy" and how we can create genuine vulnerability in a culture where it can be hard to distinguish it from fake emotional intelligence. Lil Seyi is a groundbreaking Stanford musician whose songs are often deeply emotional and personal. In addition to his solo work, he forms half of the Afrobeats duo Remedy, and founded the SupaStas collective. His latest EP, A Little Personal, just dropped across all platforms. [Songs: Personal by Lil Seyi; Not Enough by Remedy ft. DJ KOKO, teaman the güey, Bria who Sings]

The Bros chop it up with a true legend (and bro), Slate journalist + host of the podcast Man Up, Aymann Ismail! The Dynamic Trio (damn, that's got a nice ring to it) critically analyze men's identities as "providers," being our best selves, and find out that Aymann has ALSO not been to the doctor in years! Oh, boy– whoops– I mean, oh, man!

Why do guys take pride in not being clean? And why do guys avoid the doctor? The Bros start with showering and end up with colonoscopies. How did we get there? Well, that’s the journey :) IMPORTANT LOGISTICAL ANNOUNCEMENT: For this season (season 4), we will be releasing episodes bi-weekly, or every two weeks. More details on why at the end of the podcast. Love you all, thank you for the support!

In honor of the end of No Shave November, the Bros wrestle with what it means to have a beard and how beards affect life as a man.

The Bros welcome back official Bro-Respondent Nidhi Mahale for a conversation about TI testing his daughter's virginity, Colin Kaepernick, the life of a classy president, and more. Also, Nidhi learns to say words right.

The Bros embrace their artistic side and dive into what art means to them while making a world-class painting. Is Sammy really Picasso if he never bit off his own ear? Tornado or TorNATO?

The Bros create a revolutionary new idea for how to celebrate Halloween, are you ready for it? Then, they chat with activist Samuel Sinyangwe about something truly scary: police violence and masculinity in police violence. It's truly #Spookyseason.

Stanford Dormpop artist and Official Homie eisenach drops by Sammy's room to paint his nails and chat with the bros about existential meta type stuff (yeah, we're pretty f**king intellectual). Go check out his EP Transitory Places!

The bros talk about home while sitting on top of a roof. Also, yeah, F**k high school debate, man.

The bros sit down for one of their realest episodes yet: prisons and masculinity. With two amazing guests coming from very different angles into the prison system, the bros break down exactly how these concepts are intertwined by shutting up and playing the interview. Big ups to our new friends Anderson and Professor Janice Ross for lending their expertise!!

The bros catch up on their summer growth. Then, they dive into hair and appearance with fellow bro Jhonatan while Evan cuts their hair. Also, frozen GoGurts are a thing?

Evan sits down with an old mentor to talk about his work, world view, how to influence change, and more. This is a shorter preview of a longer interview that will be released as part of a larger Michigan storytelling project later this fall. [CONTAINS EXPLICIT LANGUAGE]

Sammy sits down with activist and current chair of the Stanford undergraduate senate Munira Alimire to talk about one of the scariest experiences that shaped her life.

The bros catch up on their summer adventures from across the ocean, argue about the name Karen, and talk about their observations on masculinity from their new summer environments.
