They also explore the physical changes — mysterious aches, slower metabolisms, and bodies that don’t bounce back like they used to — and the challenges of maintaining friendships and navigating family dynamics. With a blend of humor and honesty, Josh and Bryan share how they plan to be more transparent with the next generation about the highs and lows of adulthood, offering a real, relatable look at the unexpected parts of growing up.
