YOBcc047: Wes Wants You to Please Touch Him as a TWO!
Friday Jun 24, 2022
Friday Jun 24, 2022
Wes makes his podcasting debut as a longstanding Enneagram Two in our community! He shares with Tom his motivations, fears, stress, and security as a Type Two (the Giver or Helper). How does Wes's Two-ness manifest in the realms of sexuality, masculinity, and relating with other men?
Since so much of the Two's identity is tied to other people, we dive into this realm of "relating with other men" more than any other episode of this series. In particular, how does a Two respond to that precious loss in male friendship? How does a Two feel a sense of belonging with a community? How important is coming out for a Two? Wes also shares about the Two's relating with God: does a Two feel beautiful in God's eyes or merely tolerable to His purposes? How does the Two experience pride and manipulation in times of stress, and how does the Two experience self-care that isn't selfish during times of growth?
Listen to our full Enneagram conversation, and be sure to follow us these next few weeks as we dial around the Enneagram and talk to each type in our community!

YOBcc046: Jesse Can Summon Two Hours of Fun as a ONE!
Friday Jun 17, 2022
Friday Jun 17, 2022
Jesse, an Enneagram One, shares with Tom his motivations, fears, stress, and security as the Perfectionist or Reformer. As a member of our YOB community, how does his One-ness manifest in the realms of sexuality, masculinity, and relating with other men?
Jesse discusses his inclination to order and perfection and how that has translated to a need to "clean up" before God, particularly with his sexuality. He shares his love for lists and how he's only recently begun to prioritize tending to his sexual and gender identity. He talks about his messy stress path into Four as well as his security into Seven, including how he embraces a more spontaneous, adventure-seeking nature with his guy friends -- but only for two hours at a time.

YOBcc045: Ryan Knows What Eggs He Wants as a NINE!
Saturday Jun 04, 2022
Saturday Jun 04, 2022
We continue our Enneagram ConvoCast series with Mr. Nine and longtime cohost of the YOBcast: Ryan! Ryan shares with Tom his motivations, fears, stress, and security as a Type Nine (the Peacemaker). As a member of our YOB community, how does his Nine-ness manifest in the realms of sexuality, masculinity, and relating with other men?
Ryan compares himself to how Julia Roberts orders eggs in Runaway Bride, and he also pleads with other types to let him just enjoy his wrong restaurant order! He discusses the Nine's ability to "merge" with other people's passions and personalities in a loss of personal identity, and we read some extensive YOBBER feedback that exchanges "peace" for "unity" as a Nine's primary motivator. We discuss some other feedback about coming out publicly as a Nine versus coming out selectively to "keep the peace." What happens at a church after Ryan comes out and serves in the children's ministry, and some parents are acting a little off? Finally, Ryan shares about the Nine's fear of neediness as he reacts to the neediness in others.

YOBcc044: Matthew Will Love You Long and Hard as an EIGHT!
Friday May 27, 2022
Friday May 27, 2022
We kick off our Enneagram ConvoCast series with Mr. Eight himself: Matthew! Matthew shares with Tom about his motivations, fears, stress, and security as a Type Eight (the Challenger). As a member of our YOB community, how does his Eight-ness manifest in the realms of sexuality, masculinity, and relating with other men?
Matthew shares why he often feels separate from members of the LGBT+ community and the YOB community, connecting more strongly with straight men. He also discusses his journey with vulnerability as a point of growth in his relationships. And he confirms that if an Eight truly loves you, he's loyal all the way! We close the conversation by including ways we we can all love the Eights in our lives better.

YOB095: The Enneagram
Friday May 20, 2022
Friday May 20, 2022
We’ve referenced it again and again for dozens of episodes, and now we’re finally devoting an entire episode to the Enneagram! We open up the Enneagram box and share what we’ve found helpful for our personal growth in this trendy personality system. How does the Enneagram impact our self-awareness? And how does this self-awareness impact our view of others?
Join Tom, Ryan, and Ben for an overview of the Enneagram! We dive into the stats of all the types in our community and share a little about our own types. And get ready for the YOB ConvoCast summer series to come, featuring discussions with each of the nine types in our community!
Additionally, as announced in this episode, we're exploring the potential for a Your Other Sisters community! If you're a woman interested or intrigued, or know a woman who might be and would like to learn more, shoot us an email: contact@yourotherbrothers.com. Be sure to leave "YOS" in the subject line! We'd love to explore this conversation with you.

Saturday Apr 02, 2022

YOB093: LGBT+ Media
Friday Mar 11, 2022
Friday Mar 11, 2022
We've been blogging and podcasting a lot lately about gay characters or themes in various shows, films, and other media. Should we as Jesus-followers who may also identify as LGBT+ but also follow a traditional sexual ethic be consuming LGBT+ media? What are the potential benefits and costs, and where is the line between what is beneficial, acceptable, distracting, or harmful? How do we interact, if at all, with LGBT+ media?
Join Tom, Ryan, and Aaron for this final (for now) discussion on the pros and cons and nuanced middle of LGBT+ media consumption!

COMMENT ON THIS EPISODE

YOBcc043: Tom & Alex Love LOVE, VICTOR!
Saturday Mar 05, 2022
Saturday Mar 05, 2022
Tom welcomes YOBBER Alex to bask in the Hulu show Love, Victor, which follows the events of the movie Love, Simon. Alex shares why he loves this show so much, including the racial dynamic with Victor as a half-Puerto Rican, half-Columbian guy and himself as half-Thai. They also discuss one particular episode of the show that features Simon’s LGBT+ community in New York. Couldn’t churches learn from how this community values family, showing love to a so-called “stranger” in Victor? And could there ever be a “Side B” show like this one where Victor finds a community like YOB??
COMMENT ON THIS EPISODE
Have you seen Love, Victor? What do you love about the show, or what causes you any conflict? Who's your favorite character?

YOBcc042: Tom & Eugene Debate the Gayness of LUCA!
Friday Feb 18, 2022
Friday Feb 18, 2022
Tom welcomes back YOB’s film aficionado Eugene to discuss a recent community favorite: Pixar’s Luca! We cut right to the chase with this film: is there anything gay about it? Are either, or both, of the main characters gay? How does our sexuality influence the way we watch this film? Will there be a Luca 2? Do we want a sequel? If we get one, how open are we to exploring Luca and Alberto’s sexualities? Or would such a future plot rob anything from their friendship?

YOB092: Second Adolescence
Saturday Feb 12, 2022
Saturday Feb 12, 2022
Many gay/SSA folks experience a delayed or "second adolescence" in adulthood after keeping our sexuality secret in our first adolescence when we unconsciously adapted to the heteronormative culture around us. When we finally do find safe masculine circles, whether within YOB or elsewhere, conversational topics like sex or masturbation, or shared male experiences like nudity and cuddling hold great appeal -- if not laced with some of that adolescent immaturity or a tinge (or bucketload) of obsession.
But second adolescence is more than just talking too much about penises or underwear. What about dealing with the heartache of other male friends, particularly other "Side B" ones, who have hurt us? What about our lack of Side B peers or role models growing up? How has what we lacked in our first adolescence affected our lives and growth today?
Join Tom, Ben, and Will for a dispersed yet also focused look at this phenomena of "second adolescence," finally putting a name to this nebulous thing that we've all noticed in our community and in ourselves for years!
