Episode 204: The No.1 Reason Boys Don’t Grow Up: We are Making Dangerous, Depressed, and Lonely Men!

What happens when more boys have smartphones than fathers in their homes? A groundbreaking UK research study called ‘Lost Boys’ has revealed alarming trends about young men today. John Heinen and Devin Schadt welcome back three-time guest Jim O’Day to respond to and unpack this landmark research and its implications. Together, they examine how the critical absence of male role models—particularly fathers—is creating a generation of directionless young men. The conversation highlights shocking statistics: women in their 20s are consistently out-earning their male counterparts, and young men are afraid to talk to women. The trio explores how fatherlessness, education failures, technology addiction, pornography exposure, and society’s ignoring of men are ruining the future of humanity. While secular solutions continue to fall short, John, Devin, and Jim present both immediate interventions and long-term approaches rooted in timeless Catholic wisdom. Don’t miss this essential conversation about reclaiming authentic masculinity for the next generation.
