Where Men Belong — The Third Places That Keep Us Alive

In this episode, Bill Leighty takes us back to Vinnie’s patio — a backyard in Tulsa where real estate men gathered every weekday at five o’clock for a decade, grilling steaks, telling stories, and doing something the researchers now know is as essential to survival as exercise: belonging somewhere. It’s an honest story, including the parts that weren’t easy. And it leads somewhere unexpected — to a front row at St. Rita’s Chapel, and to what Bill believes every man needs to find before it’s too late. The Editorial Team at The Encore Project is proud to bring you one of the most personal conversations we’ve had.
