Are Young Men in America Falling Behind? Four 20-Somethings Speak Out
Episode 69
Friday, 18 July, 2025

The statistics are grim: young men are falling behind their female peers in graduation rates, employment, and relationships—and leading in depression, suicide, and social isolation. In this episode, we share these numbers with four men in their 20s—MTI Coach Emmett Shaul (29) and three current MTI interns—and ask for their honest reactions. What do these stats reflect about their generation? Are they experiencing this decline firsthand? And what do they think the future holds? This is a candid, unscripted conversation about masculinity, struggle, resilience, and the state of young men in America today.
