NotBrokenProject has Become YouAreBroken
YouAreBroken is a podcast about male dysfunction — not to cure it, but to confront it.
We’re not here to optimize you.
We’re here to expose the cycle:
- Endless self-hacking
- Fake recoveries
- Reddit-based masculinity
- Goon loops, libido cults, and hormonal cosplay
We explore what happens when male identity collapses into protocols, peptides, and performance metrics — and no one stops to ask why.
This isn’t medical advice.
It’s post-crash commentary.
A diagnosis of a digital generation that thinks testosterone is a personality and shame is something you can stack your way out of.

Testosterone 103 — The Truth They Don’t Tell You
Episode 16: Testosterone 103 — The Truth They Don’t Tell You
Chapter Description:
This final entry in our testosterone series takes a hard, honest look at what happens when TRT stops being exciting — and starts becoming exhausting. In Testosterone 103, I go beyond the textbook benefits to talk about the long-term realities: the water retention that won’t quit, the estrogen swings that keep you guessing, the frustration of constantly tweaking your protocol to chase a feeling that never quite comes back. This isn’t about bashing TRT — I’m still on it, and I probably always will be. But the conversation around it has become too sanitized, too commercial, too disconnected from what real patients deal with day after day. That’s why I’m stepping away from talking about it — not because I don’t believe in testosterone, but because I believe men deserve better than influencers selling magic. If you’ve ever felt like the promise of TRT came with too many strings, this one’s for you.
You’re not broken. You’re still here.
