Remaking Manhood

The Healthy Masculinity Podcast
Picture
Listen and subscribe to the Remaking Manhood Podcast for powerful conversations with the men and women leading the healthy masculinity movement.

For generations, our culture has taught us a narrow and limiting set of rules for how to be a man. Thousands of men have broken out of the man box and its rigid version of masculinity. Join us on this show for conversations with a variety of leaders, influencers, and regular guys who have done just that. 

​ Welcome to Remaking Manhood, the healthy masculinity podcast. We’re glad you’re here.
  • In episode 16, Mark and I explore the roots of domination culture and how men’s response to that culture can lead to acts of violence and rape. We unpack men’s common reactions to stories harassment, our overt or covert role in rape culture, our resistance to taking action and how men can help each other to overcome that resistance.
  • High School Head Football Coach Erik Becker is teaching his players not only how to win games, but how to lean into love, service, compassion and justice as values central to becoming men. Listen now to hear about Coach Becker's program for growing boys' character and integrity both on and off the football field. ​
  • ​​How do we, as men, help other men put down the unhealthy attitudes and behaviors that are limiting them and hurting others? How do we call men in to the challenging work of crafting individual masculinities that include connection, inclusion, empathy and care?
  • Judy Chu is the author of When Boys Become Boys.  Chu is the advocate many of us wished we had had in our corner when we were young. When she gets fired up in defense of boys, and calls out what our culture of masculinity continues to do to them, it is both uplifting and deeply inspiring.
  • Graham spent thirty years as a Scottish police officer and Chief Investigator. During his career, he noticed an important reality: almost all of the criminals he pursued and their victims were men or boys. He started wondering why we don’t talk about violence as a problem that predominantly affects males. AND one that can be solved by - mostly - men.
  • The exuberant and savvy Lisa Hickey, CEO of the Good Men Project, talks about tactics, media platforms, culture hacking and the joy of building a media company which pioneered the conversation "no one else is having." ​
  • Dr. Kevin Shafer, an associate professor of Sociology at Brigham Young University, is conducting ongoing research which reveals the surprising impact of engaged fathers and how that engagement later shows up in the adult lives of their sons. Hint: It's really good news for gender equity.
  • How do we encourage healthy masculinity in an organization the size of Virginia Tech, which serves 34,000 students? Byron Hughes, Dean of Students at Virginia Tech, and his team are addressing this fundamental question. The answer? You do it one conversation at a time. ​
  • Over forty years ago, in partnerships with the Oakland Men's Project, author and activist Paul Kivel conceptualized "the act like a man box" putting into motion a central frame for the healthy masculinity movement. In this interview, Kivel talks about his history in men's work and his regrets about what remains to be done.
  • How does man box culture drive male and white supremacy? Here's how. Our deeply isolating dominance-based culture of masculinity suppresses boys ability to form and care for healthy relationships, while also insuring that women and girls, BIPOC, LGBTQI+ people, and immigrants bear the brunt of the harm created.
  • Ray Arata, founder of The Better Man Conference and long time co-leader of Mankind Project New Warrior Trainings, explores the meaning of men's power and how men can use it, or misuse it. Join us for a discussion of what happens when men fail to understand how to stand in their power in healthy ways.
  • Jan started out his career as sports broadcaster and TV producer and even helped run an Emmy winning children’s show. But like many men who seemed to have it all figured out, Jan still felt a gap, a sense of something incomplete. In this podcast, Jan talks about his experience at a transformative rite of passage where he started to fill in that gap.
  •  At a very young age Jose "had it all," but something was missing...and something was preventing him from really succeeding at work and in his relationship. Fortunately Jose took the time toreclaim his missing parts, his full authentic masculinity. Now Jose is running his own business promoting men’s comprehensive health. 
  • Ashanti Branch has spent years helping young men learn to express their emotions via his Million Mask Movement and as founder of The Ever Forward Club.  Ashanti joins us for a wide ranging conversation about his own journey as a young man and his ongoing personal work. 
  • Boysen Hodgson is the Communications Director for the ManKind Project USA. In this powerful conversation, Boysen shares his ongoing work to become a man of connection, accountability and purpose. Boysen's own knowledge of men's work, both as a leader and as a man is a powerful resource for all the men in our community.
