The show for men who are sick of their own sh*t and ready to make a change for better mental health.
Zach Tucker and Jeremy Grater have been on a never-ending quest for knowledge about physical, emotional, and mental health. They've tried everything from questionable diets to questionable therapy techniques, and now they're here to share their misadventures with you.
After years of hosting this wild ride of a show, they've managed to snag interviews with some big shots in the health and wellness world. But don't worry, they won't let all that success go to their heads. Instead, they'll use it to bring you small, achievable steps you can take to maybe, just maybe, improve yourself a smidge.
So buckle up, because The Fit Mess is going to take you on a rollercoaster of self-improvement, complete with awkward moments, actionable advice, and a healthy dose of sarcasm. Get ready to join Zach and Jeremy as they stumble their way through the world of men's mental health and try to uncover some habits that might actually make a difference. Or at least give you a good laugh along the way. Welcome to The Fit Mess, where we make messy lives just a little bit less messy.
