I'm building a private, vetted men's club app called Blum & Co. The idea came from my own life. I moved to Chicago about a year ago and realized how genuinely hard it is to connect with other men and build a real friend group as an adult. Nobody talks about that. And the older I get the more I see it everywhere. Men are increasingly isolated, carrying everything alone, and too conditioned to admit they need community.


We were raised with this tough, keep it in mentality that tells us we don't need other men. But for thousands of years before us that's exactly how men were built. Through brotherhood, through tribe, through having other men in their corner. Somewhere along the way we lost that and nobody's really trying to bring it back. That's what Blum & Co. is. A private, members only app where vetted men can connect, have real conversations, and actually show up for each other, plus real in person meetups and events. It's not another social media app. It's a brotherhood rebuilt.
