This week’s Mental Man Monday features a raw and honest conversation between Izzy Baker and special guest Derek Alexander Scott, also known as DScott (@dscott._). Together, they unpack the intersection of manhood, media, cancel culture, and mental health.
The episode opens with a recap of PSA: The Mental Health Podcast’s Season 9 premiere, As a Man, You’re Not Him (Yet). DScott shares how that episode hit deep, especially the parts about commitment issues, emotional stagnation, and men being stuck in cycles they never address. He reveals that he had to run it back twice and talks about how these topics come up constantly in his real-life circle. From there, the conversation shifts to the recent Jonathan Majors interview on Cam Newton’s Funky Friday podcast.
Izzy raises difficult questions. Was what Majors went through a humiliation ritual? Would the public reaction have been different if his accuser wasn’t white? Can a man who’s fallen still be trusted to lead? In the final segment, the episode takes on an even heavier tone with the story of Kyren Lacy, the LSU football player who tragically took his own life the night before his court date for a fatal hit-and-run.
Izzy and DScott dive into the emotional weight of guilt, the silence so many young men live with, and the spiritual truth that healing requires more than just therapy. Sometimes, it requires God. This livestream isn’t just conversation. It’s a mental health check-in. It’s a faith-based reflection on what men are going through when no one’s watching. And it’s a call for more real conversations like this—where accountability, healing, and hope meet.
