Is there a "male loneliness epidemic" in society, and where do men turn for emotional support? In this autumn's second edition of the talk show series ARE MÄN OK?, the conversation explores male loneliness, relationships and friendship between men.

Moderator and host of the talkshow is Marco Vega (MÄN), and tonight's guest is sexologist Kalle Norwald. Together they dive deep into topics such as relationships, heteronormativity, dating, and how norms around masculinity affect men's ability to maintain relationships – in both friendship and love.

DJ for the evening is Robert Deniro.
