Bottle Therapy
Ryan Sharp, Ray Pierce, Ryan Nance, Chris Hunt
Dudes (and dudettes) need more opportunities to get real with friends, have real and vulnerable conversations and talk about things that are uncomfortable but necessary to discuss. This podcast aims to cover the gambit of cultural and personal topics to bring enjoyment and support to all of those out there hustling and in the middle of the real struggles with relationships, marriages, friendships, work, parenting, social media, mental health, and fulfillment in life. Come along as 4 friends from various backgrounds and generations (sorry Sharp!!) get deep into conversation about diverse topics, have some fun with trivia and games, talk with special guests along the way, and oh yeah.....drink some tasty beverages as well!
