8.05: Masculinity, Meaning, and the Mess We're In

In this episode, Tim and Tuesday dig into masculinity, leadership, and the cultural fallout of bullying and toxic masculine norms. They unpack why authoritarian leadership models are gaining traction, how fear and division shape today’s politics, and why our individual choices in community engagement matter more than ever.The conversation moves through political discontent, the citizen–state relationship, and what people look for in leaders during times of crisis. Tim and Tuesday also examine the rise of the Manosphere, the search for purpose and belonging among young men, and how those needs can fuel harmful identities.They close with lessons from history and the power of reconnecting with ancestral stories as a guide through modern challenges.Resources:Learn more about, and follow, The Outside by visiting and liking all of our channels:Website: www.findtheoutside.comFacebook & Instagram: @findtheoutsideLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/findtheoutsideConnect with us at [email protected] Tuesday’s podcast with her husband, Gibrán Rivera: Episode 1.4 - “Reclaiming The Divine Masculine”BBC Documentary: “Men of the Manosphere,” by James BlakeBBC Documentary: “Empire with David Olusoga"Song: “Thatcher Fucked The Kids,” by Frank TurnerCheck out The Outside’s online course: Berkana Two Loops of Systems ChangeTim & Tuesday also offer keynotes on the Two Loops - contact us to learn more!Dr. Martin Shaw - “What gets exiled, comes back hostile.” Hosted on Acast.
