Welcome back to the Books Brothers Podcast! This week, Garrett leads our discussion of “The Joker Mask” chapter from The Mask of Masculinity by Lewis Howes.

Introduction and chapter reading recap (1:01 - 7:07)

“The Joker Mask” discussion (7:08 - 55:10)

• Do you try to bring humor to situations because you struggle with contributing in non-humorous ways to conversations and relationships? (7:08 - 22:59)
• As you’ve gotten older, have you seen yourself and others use humor more often? And, do you perceive humor is used more so to avoid deeper topics? (23:00 - 42:51)
• What does it look like practically to take off the joker mask? (42:52 - 55:10)

Next week’s reading: “The Invincible Mask”: pages 153 - 174
