No podcast series on the challenges facing modern men is complete without hearing from my guest on today’s program. He’s a policy scholar who has been ringing the alarm on the social, economic, and health crises facing men for years now — so much so that he recently founded a national research organization dedicated to tackling these issues. Today on Lean Out, we’re pleased to bring you an encore presentation of our 2022 conversation about his ground-breaking book.

Richard V. Reeves is the founding president of the American Institute for Boys and Men. His latest book is Of Boys and Men: Why the Modern Male Is Struggling, Why It Matters, and What To Do About It.

This podcast series is dedicated to Marc Antione Jubinville. May he rest in peace.
