Episode Description
Have you ever heard any of these, “Real men don’t show emotion or cry”, “Suck it up and drive on soldier” (courtesy of the US Military) or my personal favorite “There’s no crying in baseball” (Ok, that one was from A League of Their Own! Rest in Peace Penny Marshall). Maybe you have never seen the father figure in your life cry. Or maybe you grew up without a father figure in your life. Some of these, and probably more, may seem familiar in the eyes and ears of many men. In this show, we will be discussing some of the real issues behind why men feel the way they do. Our special guest, Dr. Michael Figgers, has written a book addressing these issues and more. For every man out there, you really don’t want to miss this show, as we dig deeper into the brokenness of real men.
