Time To Talk with Alex Holmes

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

This episode was recorded at the end of the year.

In this episode, I am joined by Simon Thomas, James Espey, Jonny Benjamin, Dr. Az, Adam Shaw, Hope Virgo, and Tom Chapman as we discussed the theme for International Men's Day. Confronting outdated ideas surrounding men’s identity & challenging stereotypes through the power of a shared story will be presented through a series of myths alongside a real-life depiction that busts the myth and creates a continued conversation around 'what it means to 'be a man' in 2021'. 

If you have been affected by any of the themes in this episode:

Look forward to seeing you next week with a fresh episode to kick-off 2022.

[FROM THE ARCHIVE] - Jan 2020

Public philosopher Roman Krznaric talks to me about what it means to be a good ancestor. He wrote a book called The Good Ancestor, and I have to credit Roman with helping me to think a lot more about legacy, and the way we show up for future generations - especially in these times of Black Lives Matter, Coronavirus, Trump (and a severely divided America) and Brexit - need I say more?

His book, The Good Ancestor, is out now.
