I think whether you’re willing to acknowledge it or not, we are most definitely facing a crisis of our young men. From incarceration and suicide rates, to substance abuse issues, to failing and lagging societal metrics, it’s safe (and, extremely tragic) to say that our boys are fighting an uphill battle.

My guest today is Dr. Warren Farrell, the author of The Boy Crisis and many other books written to explore society from the lens of both women and men. Today, we talk about the dangers of lacking structure and purpose, how the “dad-style” vs. the “mom-style” of parenting actually creates awareness and empathy, how dopamine secretion and other physiological responses assist boys and men in doing the right thing, and the dangers and destructive results of “dad-deprivation.”

 

SHOW HIGHLIGHTS:

 

  • Having the skillsets to be able to confront and to be compassionate
  • Discussing the best way to measure success
  • Teaching children to be empathetic
  • Why social skills are so important for boys
  • Fathers are critical in teaching postponed gratification
  • How boys benefit from a mother’s involvement
  • Is it possible to “have it all” in career and parenting success
  • How single moms can get male involvement

So many of us talk a big game when it comes to helping future generations of boys become the men their families, friends, and communities need them to be. And, yet, so few are willing to do much about it other than cleverly-crafted platitudes.

 

My guest today is different. His name is King Randall and he is a man that is actually doing something about leading in his community and helping the young men who don’t have the same opportunities that many of us did. Today, we talk about what it takes to build a prep school for boys, the motto and mission of, “Let us Make Men,” how he got over asking for money and what it looks like to build a 501c3 organization, the pros and cons of being young, and how it’s character that makes the man.

 

SHOW HIGHLIGHTS:

 

  • Focusing on consistency and transparency
  • Receiving pushback from the start
  • Advantages and disadvantages of building an organization at a young age
  • Teaching kids how to use social media as a business tool, not entertainment
  • Private funding vs. government funding
  • Training boys in non-traditional skills and sports

As men, we all look around and see the problems that exist in society. But very few of us are willing to objectively look at what’s going on in our culture relative to the lesson we should have learned from examples throughout history. Couple that with our inability and/or lack of desire to improve our own situations and circumstances and it makes a recipe for disaster.

My guest today is my close personal friend, Andy Frisella, and today we talk about his shift away from the MFCEO podcast to the RealAF podcast, why we need to be cognizant of the convenience vs. efficiency, learning to push the envelope, the obligation to evolve, and how you can adopt the “get better until you die,” mentality.

 

SHOW HIGHLIGHTS:

 

  • Building efficiencies in your life
  • Keep your struggles and challenges in context
  • Balancing quality of life with making more money
  • We are being indoctrinated to settle for less
  • Shifting from MFCEO to the Real AF podcast
  • We are starting to outsmart the false media narratives
  • America is designed to be a free society
  • We can change the culture in one year

He’s a former NFL football player, ESPN Analyst, and successful real estate investor.
