Friend Material

Wes Lambert

Most adult men are running on empty when it comes to real friendships. We have dead group chats and superficial acquaintances, but rarely a guy we can call on a random Tuesday. Welcome to Friend Material, a podcast breaking down the unspoken rules of male connection without the awkward framing.Hosted by therapist Wes Lambert, LMHC, this show delivers practical strategies for high-functioning guys who want a better social circle. Every Thursday, learn how to make actual friends, maintain consistency through busy seasons, and become the kind of guy other men clear their schedules for.
