Men talk about all sorts of things. Here are some conversations they tend not to have.

In The Male Room we ask men to reflect on their own experiences and behaviour; to talk about what it's like to be a man, be it about fatherhood, inadequacy, anger, violence or dating. The result is a series of conversations that men don't often have on air.

To kick us off on Valentine's Night, we navigate the often delicate world of modern world of dating. Justin Myers who blogs as 'The Guyliner' tells Olly how dating apps have changed the dating landscape, why he doesn't believe in romance, and shares some his own experiences. Neuroscientist Dean Burnett gives the lowdown on the fundamental differences between the male and female brain. Mike Bullen, the writer of 'Cold Feet' talks about why middle-aged singletons are such a strong trope of his work, and the Male Room Millennials talk about why behaviour on dates, exit strategies and the issues around consent and one-night stands.
