Balls On The Table

with Evan and Tony

Details

What happens when men stop pretending… and actually talk? Balls On The Table is where real conversations about modern manhood finally get said out loud. The pressures. The expectations. The stuff guys joke about but rarely admit actually affects them — relationships, sex, fatherhood, aging, insecurity, success, failure, and the quiet fears most men carry alone... and the stuff they enjoy the most and like the least. Hosted from the regular guy’s point of view — we’re not therapists, not experts — just a couple guys willing to go first. This show brings honest, funny, and sometimes uncomfortable conversations with friends, strangers, and people who have lived it. Some episodes make you laugh. Some hit deeper than expected. All of them put the truth where it belongs: on the table. This isn’t about complaining. It’s about understanding what men think they want, what they actually need, and what changes when they finally start talking about it. If you’re a man trying to grow, figure things out, or just hear someone say, “Yeah, me too,” this is your seat at the table. And if you’re trying to understand a man — you’ll want to listen. Because the strongest men aren’t just the ones who stay quiet. They’re the ones who have the guts to put their balls on the table. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

RICCARDO BERDINI - Sleight of Hand. Full of Heart
RICCARDO BERDINI: Some people play with the balls. Some people control the game. And then there are those who make you question whether you ever saw what you think you did. On this episode of BOTT, we’re joined by an illusionist and mentalist whose performances blur the line between skill, psychology, and the impossible. Riccardo Berdini has a remarkable ability to take something familiar and make it completely mysterious. With precision, charm, and some misdirection, he reminds us that sometimes the most convincing thing in the room is the thing we think we’re seeing. But beneath the sleight of hand is something even more compelling: a genuine sense of wonder and a zest for life that comes through in everything he does. And now, as a new father, perhaps he has an entirely new audience to amaze. Today at The Table with Riccardo, we only f–ck with magic.

KRISTINA FERRARI - Love's Not 50/50. It’s Not Papyrus Either.
Therapist and relationship coach Kristina Ferrari joins Balls on the Table for a raw conversation about the hidden patterns that shape how we love, connect, and protect ourselves. Kristina shares her own heartfelt story of marriage & divorce, abuse and the ways she learned to survive without even realizing she was doing it, and the moment she began to see that a life that looked successful on the outside could still feel deeply wrong on the inside. We get into control, intimacy, sex the weird stuff, why we often repeat patterns we don't even know we're carrying and why fifty-fifty in a relationship doesn’t work. It has to be one hundred - one hundred.... Most of all, we talk about the uncomfortable truth that the things that once kept us safe can eventually keep us small. Because seeing the pattern is only the beginning. The real question is: what are you willing to change? Please subscribe to the channels and follow if you haven't done so yet! It really helps us out.

FRANK GRILLO - Boxing, Bach, Bufo & Being A Man
Frank Grillo has built a career playing tough guys—but how much of that fire do you actually need to get through life? In this episode at the Table, Frank gets into his career, being a father to young men, reinventing himself, getting older, and knowing when to stand your ground—and when to walk away. We talk about discipline, relationships, success & failure, and the responsibility of giving boys the tools to stand up for themselves without needing to prove their worth to everyone else. From Bach’s cello suites to smoking Bufo - Frank Grillo isn't exactly what you expect. But he likes getting hit in the face, so we trust him. No posturing. No easy answers. No rules. Just a hell of a conversation about identity, resilience, and figuring out who you want to become. Please subscribe to the channels and follow if you haven't done so yet! It really helps us out.

JONICA BOOTH - Our BALLS are finally ‘BLU’
Some people cut through the noise to reinvent themselves. Jonica Blu Booth decided to turn the volume all the way up. She first caught your attention as a reality star, but these days, she’s trading reality TV drama for TV and Film starring roles - and if you think you already know Jonica from what you’ve seen on screen, this conversation might make you think again. Nothing is off the table for Jonica in our talk. She gets candid about her career, the pressure to be taken seriously, her sexuality, what she wants in a relationship and never being afraid to build a new identity. It’s funny, flirty, spicy—and honest to the bone. Because Jonica isn’t interested in playing it safe, in her career, with love, or anywhere in between. She’s saying what she wants out loud, and having a damn good time along the way. This episode our Balls are definitely blu thanks to Ms. Booth! Please subscribe if you haven't done so yet!
