Eric McLoyd and Scott Steward created the Men, Sex, Gen X podcast to better represent Generation X in the media. In September 2020 they did an episode on why mothers get more respect than fathers. When they expressed an interest in being on "Men Are Talking," Jack suggested following up on that episode and maybe going a little deeper into what's going between mothers and fathers, women and men. It was going pretty well. And then somebody brought up race. • Contact info for Eric McLoyd and Scott Steward: • moneysexgenxpodcast.com/ • YouTube: youtube.com/channel/UC8ZPj-9gwrEMiNpglZnzayw

Father's Eve is a new holiday held every year at venues around the country on the evening before Father’s Day. It’s a fun, no-pressure way for fathers to hang out with other fathers – to connect, share and celebrate fatherhood. And have a beer if they like. The man behind it is our guest John Francis, who is exactly the kind of man just about everybody would love to have a beer with. And you can, at least virtually, next Father’s Eve. Maybe being the host of a Father’s Eve is in your future? • Contact info for John Francis • www.fatherseve.com

Rick Belden had to work hard to become a man of integrity. His upbringing made it difficult for him to make sense of his feelings and establish boundaries around who he was when others wanted him to be someone else. In this episode of "Men Are Talking," Rick talks about his years-long process of getting "unstuck," of learning the importance of understanding "What happened to me?" as opposed to "What's wrong with me?", especially when we're immobilized and demoralized by shame and self-doubt.

John Lauritsen thinks freely, studies deeply and, as an independent scholar not beholden to academic or philanthropic dictates, is free to speak his mind. One of his main interests is love between men, which he defines as including love, sex, and friendship. On this episode of Men Are Talking we talk about the reasons gay men and heterosexual men so often see each other as different because of our sexualities and so rarely see each other as the same because of our sex.

Near the start of the show John makes a reference to Frankenstein. I meant to explain what John was referring to but I failed to circle back. John is the author of The Man Who Wrote Frankenstein, a treatise that disputes the recently popularized idea that it was Mary Shelley, rather than her husband Percy Bysshe Shelley, who wrote The Modern Prometheus, more commonly known as Frankenstein.

Patriarchy is "a system of society or government in which the father or eldest male is head of the family and descent is traced through the male line." But "The Patriarchy" is the ultimate feminist bogeyman -- a global, conspiratorial cabal intent on oppressing women and serving only the selfish interests of men. Today we talk with Steven Van Valkenburg, whose Patriarchy Central Twitter account satirizes with dry and deadly dead-pan humor the impossibility of such a set-up.

Fred Hayward is one of the pioneers of the modern men's movement. In this episode of “Men Are Talking,” Fred explains how he got kicked off Oprah Winfrey's show when Oprah was a local star in Baltimore. Then host Jack Kammer tells his story of taking Oprah out on a sort-of-date to a men's issues presentation. At the end, Fred and Jack express their wishes for some simple men's issues-related things Oprah could say to make a world of difference on problems she cares deeply and sincerely about.

Mark Perry is an economics professor at the University of Michigan and a scholar at the American Enterprise Institute. He is also a one-man wrecking crew against "gender-conscious" (AKA pro-female, seldom-if-ever-pro-male) scholarships, programs, services, and facilities provided to a supposedly disadvantaged sex (AKA women, even though they outnumber men) in colleges and universities in violation of Title IX's rules against sexism in higher education. Maybe you'd like to help him? He tells you how.

Correction provided by Dr. Perry: In 2021, 57.7% of US bachelor’s degrees were awarded to women, which is a ratio of 136 women for every 100 men. In the video, Dr. Perry misstated the female-male bachelor’s degree ratio as 157-to-100, which is the female-male ratio for associate’s degrees.

Jim Ellis an author, playwright, and documentary filmmaker. In this episode of “Men Are Talking,” we hear about Jim’s boyhood friendship, how it filled his life with joy, freedom, and confidence, and how he felt a deep and discomfiting loss when his friend moved away. Now, as an adult, Jim derives those same essential ingredients for being a happy man from an international organization of men’s teams — not sports teams — called Mentor, Discover, Inspire.

Feminists insist there is no need for a men's movement because feminism cares about and is good for eliminating sexism against everyone. We'll check that assertion with 21-year-old Tristan Glosby, a man whose entire life has been under feminist hegemony.
