Rylan: How to Be... - How to Be a Man: Kit Brown

Rylan Clark is joined by school teacher, CBBC presenter and TikTok star Kit Brown for a wide-ranging discussion about education and the pressures faced by children growing up in the 2020s.

Kit, who is just 23 years old, thinks the rulebook on how to be a man is being rewritten and also reflects on his own life, which saw him abandon hopes of becoming a professional footballer to become a primary school teacher. He also reveals that his first class thought he was a married man of 40.

In this series, Rylan opens up the fault lines of masculinity in lively and revealing conversations with diverse, prominent figures and celebrities. Together they explore toxic masculinity, old-fashioned male stereotypes, gender identity, body image, parenthood, how to educate the next generation, role models and cultural differences to try to understand How to Be a Man in the 2020s.
