Dear Old Dads - DOD186: Who Can Fix the Men?
play

02/19/25 • 47 min

Content Note: This episode includes some discussion of the treatment of marginalized communities under the Trump administration.

After reading a post from Reddit, the dads dive into a deep discussion on how men can change men's minds (and if we should even bother) regarding masculinity, the patriarchy, feminism, and politics. Have we already lost to the red-pilled man-o-sphere, or can we still reach people? I think we might have a three bears situation on our hands!
