My guest John Lovell is well-known to many as The Warrior Poet, a Special Forces vet known and loved both for his 2A advocacy and his equally formidable dad jokes. One of the many subtopics of his new book, The Warrior Poet Way, is how today’s post-modern men can benefit from returning to ancient wisdom.

According to John, that’s where we’ll find both practical answers to portraying masculinity as well as primal elements of sexual attraction. Tune in as we discuss how wisdom, strength, and significance are old-school masculinity, dating back to primal roots.

Why exactly has society been neutered, apparently absolving men from the need to provide and protect? Why is today’s emerging masculinity movement so compartmentalized?

What is the real reason men and masculinity are under scrutiny whereas femininity isn’t? What is the deeper significance of fatherhood–and even of leaving a legacy–that many men miss?

John celebrates the need for men to be ‘dangerous’. Why is that controversial?

Men should ‘do hard things’…but doesn’t that go beyond the need to be physically tough? Do I need to get up at 4:30am every morning because someone else does?

Most men haven’t been in the military. What can they do to gain at least some of the life advantages men gain there? And last but certainly not least, what does it mean for a man to die well?
