About this listen

Ever want to ask your favorite Uncle for advice or help but couldn't? No worries, we got you!

The Hey Unk? Podcast is a soul-stirring and authentic talk show hosted by three long-time friends—Shannon Fuller, Mark Atwater, and Stewart McDay—who step into the role of the "favorite uncles" everyone wishes they could turn to for advice.

Launched in 2024, the podcast serves as a bridge between generations, offering a space where "real talk meets real life." The hosts draw from over 30 to 40 years of friendship and lived experience to help listeners navigate the complexities of adulthood, fatherhood, and professional success.

Core Themes & Content

  • Adulting & Life Advice: The "Unks" delve into the "nuggets of wisdom" they’ve gathered over the years, covering everything from the best advice they ever received to the "realizations that come with growing up."
  • Career & Finance: With a focus on building a solid foundation, the podcast discusses "standing on business," entrepreneurial mindsets, career progression, and financial planning (with practical tips like "spending less than you bring home").
  • Relationships & Family: Episodes feature candid reflections on fatherhood, "daddy issues," the significance of mothers ("Dear Mama"), and the evolution of relationships, emphasizing vulnerability, intimacy, and communication.
  • Community & Health: The show tackles critical issues like mental health, the unique challenges Black men face in healthcare, and the importance of finding healthy stress outlets like cooking, golf, or quality time with friends.
