Dang Man - Progressive Discussions on Modern Masculinity

In 2025 my brother Tim approached me with the idea to do a podcast on modern masculinity. To be honest, I wasn’t eager to go on record discussing “masculinity” in the age of the Manosphere - when even that term - “masculinity” - is most naturally prefixed with the adjective “toxic.”

My other brother, James, was on board and I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to do a podcast with my two brothers. They are both admirable men with families and careers. Over the past few years we’ve put out some content that I’m really proud of.

We’re currently reevaluating the future of the podcast. Believe it or not, it takes a lot of work to put this together! If you’re interested in a different opinion of masculinity than you’ll find on the Manosphere, if you admire Martin Luther King Jr. and Fred Rogers, if you’re at all interested in the concept of “Heroic Masculinity” - I offer you Dang Man!
