I sat down with Nick Freitas, veteran, fellow podcaster, and author of “The Manbook,” to talk about what it actually means to be a man in the aftermath of the woke revolution. In recent years, manosphere figures like Andrew Tate have arisen as an answer for young men who feel cast out at school, at work, and in mainstream culture. Their message takes legitimate grievances and points them in unhealthy directions. Nick advocates for a different answer: biblical masculinity.
We get into:
What masculinity is really all about
The moment Nick’s co-host changed the way he gives advice
Why conservatives aren’t getting through to radicalized young men
What he’s observed raising both a son and daughters
How he and his wife built a successful marriage and family
Why Christianity gets results, even if you can’t see it yet
