Ep. 141: The Renaissance of Men: Will Spencer The Suzanne Venker Show
-
- Society & Culture
Something is happening in the world of men: a global awakening, a time of rediscovery, a rebirth. Men around the world are drawing on the best of masculinity from all of time to redefine what it means to be a man—on their terms. Stanford grad Will Spencer is on a mission to help men learn what it means to be a man and to grab their masculinity with gusto
"For thousands of years, men’s mutual improvement happened around a campfire. Tribal chiefs instructed the young men, who tested each other to build prestige and skill." Our society lost this long ago, says Will, and he's on a mission to bring it back.
