Mike and Dylan tackle one of the most important questions for modern fathers: How do you raise a son who doesn't fall into the Andrew Tate alpha male trap? What starts as parenting advice evolves into a deep dive on why songs like Dax's "To Be a Man" are actually dangerous, why coworker music is ruining rap, and the real story behind Tory Lanez making Dax apologize at gunpoint.

The guys expose the difference between being a real man and following toxic masculinity grifters, break down why Andrew Tate attracts guys with no self-confidence, and reveal what ACTUALLY makes you valuable as a father and partner.

Plus: behind-the-scenes drama from their 48 Hour Film Project experience.

This isn't your typical masculinity debate—it's two dads keeping it brutally honest about raising boys in the age of hustle culture and internet tough guys.
