About this episode
It’s no secret that masculinity is under assault, but it’s not just “toxic masculinity.” Society itself is increasingly treating boys like defective girls. In this episode, Nick interviews Rebekah Lovell, wife of John Lovell (Warrior Poet Society), and a homeschool mother of two boys, about how parents can and should go about raising boys to become men. ----- ⭐ SPONSOR: Good Ranchers Serve only the best meat to fuel your family!
