Episode 70: Why Society Depends on Strong Men (w/ Anthony Esolen)

Today Sam and John are joined by an incredible Catholic man, professor, and author, Dr. Anthony Esolen. In his new book, “No Apologies: Why Civilization Depends on the Strength of Men”, he gets straight to the point from history, societal development, biology, and observation. He goes to the core of masculinity to return to men the joy of their manliness. We live in distorted times and this conversation is just scratching the surface of the truth that all men must understand.
