Force for Good with Craig Wilkinson

Why are so many young men turning to the manosphere? In this episode, Craig Wilkinson takes an honest look at what’s driving its growth. Following strong reactions to Part 1, this conversation examines both the dangers and the appeal of these movements - highlighting the deeper issue: a global crisis in masculinity. While challenging the toxic elements, he also uncovers what these platforms are getting right - and why that matters. Craig unpacks: Why young men are drawn to these voices The role of discipline, strength, and responsibility The gap left by absent fathers and role models What healthy masculinity actually looks like At the heart of the conversation is a deeper question: ~
What are young men really looking for? Rather than dismissing the phenomenon, this episode seeks to understand it - pointing toward a more grounded, healthy vision of masculinity rooted in responsibility and identity, and highlighting the critical role of fathers and mentors in shaping the next generation.

I watched the deeply disturbing Louis Theroux documentary “Inside the Manosphere” recently and it was painful to sit through. It highlighted exactly what authentic masculinity is not. The wounded, insecure and narcissistic men it featured depicted a destructive, distorted and damaged picture of masculinity. They equated manhood with dominance, status and control when quite the opposite is true. True masculinity is definitely strong but it uses its strength to love, serve, protect and provide. Why are these men the way they are? And why are so many young men watching, following and modeling themselves on this painful parody of masculinity? Those are the critical questions I unpack in this very important podcast which affects all of us and our future. Masculinity is not about domination. It’s about responsibility. Strength is not there to control. It’s there to protect, serve, and build. It’s is a sacred responsibility to be used only for good. We don’t need men who dominate, and we don’t need men who disappear. We need men who are present, men of character, men who use their strength for good. That’s the path forward. That’s the antidote to the manosphere.

In this episode of Force For Good, Craig Wilkinson sits down with George Matsheke, founder of Marvin, a platform focused on conversations about men, masculinity, and the challenges men face today. Together, they explore the growing crisis facing men and boys - including fatherlessness, depression, identity struggles, and the sense many men have of being disposable in modern society. These are realities that don’t stay contained, but ripple outward into families, women, children, and the wider culture. George shares the inspiration behind creating spaces where men can speak honestly, support one another, and rediscover purpose. The conversation also explores how restoring healthy masculinity, rebuilding fatherhood, and encouraging empathy between men and women may be one of the most important steps toward building a healthier society. Before we are men or women, we are human beings - and the future depends on how we raise the next generation.

Narcissistic abuse isn’t always loud. It can be the quiet erosion of who you are – the slow rewriting of your story until you barely recognize yourself. In this episode of Force For Good, Craig Wilkinson speaks with Kirsten Alexander, author and life-coach, about the insidious nature of narcissism, how to recognize it, and how to reclaim your sense of self. They discuss the difference between arrogance and narcissism, the way empaths get caught in cycles of abuse, and what recovery really looks like – the return to who you were before someone else told you who to be. If you’ve ever doubted your reality, walked on eggshells, or felt unseen in a relationship, this conversation is for you.

We live in an age where a few seconds of video can define a person’s entire reputation. Where context disappears, and soundbites become weapons. Charlie Kirk’s death was more than an American tragedy, it was a mirror held up to all of us. It revealed how quickly we judge, how divided we’ve become, and how easily echo chambers replace honest debate with outrage based on woundedness and misinformation. This episode isn’t about defending or condemning Charlie Kirk. It’s about something much deeper; how misrepresentation fuels hate, how truth gets lost in the noise, and why forgiveness and love remain the only real answers. The question we all need to answer is are we living in truth and love, or in hate and deception? Join Craig as he looks beyond the clips and the labels to explore what this story teaches us about truth, empathy, and being a force for good in a polarised world.

In this inspiring episode of Force for Good, Craig Wilkinson sits down with GBV ambassador Cynthia Dinalane, a true hero from Tembisa who turned her own home into a shelter for abused women and children. With no external funding, she has rehabilitated over 120 women, giving them skills, dignity, and a future. Cynthia shares harrowing stories of abuse, the painful reality many women and men face, and the incredible journey of healing she’s witnessed. Some of the on-the-ground stories are raw and will shock you – the kind of truth you rarely hear outside clinics and courtrooms. But you’ll also be deeply inspired by Cynthia’s courage and commitment: opening her home up, funding the work herself, staying with survivors as long as it takes, and equipping them with real skills to stand on their own. Together, Cynthia and Craig talk about the transformative power of forgiveness, how unemployment and distorted culture fuel violence, what true masculinity looks like, how men can also be victims of abuse, and why communities must support both women and men to break the cycle. Every one of us has the power to be a force for good. Let’s use it.

At the end of your life, what will people say about you? This episode marks the beginning of a new chapter. The Dangerous But Good podcast has rebranded as Force for Good. The name has changed, but the mission remains the same: calling men and women to live with courage, purpose, and impact. The new name captures the heart of what the podcast has always been about — using our lives to push back against darkness and leave the world better than we found it. In this episode, Craig Wilkinson explores the choices every one of us faces: to live passively and make no real difference, to live destructively and harm others, or to live as a force for good and create a legacy of impact. Craig reminds listeners that being a force for good doesn’t require wealth, fame, or power. It means showing up. It means using your words, your time, your presence, and your money to build instead of destroy. Because silence in the face of evil is complicity. With conviction and encouragement, Craig challenges us to look in the mirror and ask: Am I living selfishly, destructively, or purposefully? What will my children, my friends, and my community say about the impact I had? Force for Good continues the journey begun as Dangerous But Good: inspiring men and women everywhere to live with courage, purpose, and impact — to become unstoppable forces for good in a world that desperately needs it

Too many of us are living by someone else’s script—fitting in, toeing the line, and slowly losing touch with who we really are. We let the world define us through roles, labels, and expectations, and end up living lives that look fine on the outside but feel empty on the inside. In this episode, I unpack the true meaning of identity and how discovering it can shift everything—from how you show up in the world to how you live with courage, conviction, and purpose. If you’ve ever felt torn between who you are and who you’re expected to be, this conversation will help you find your way back to your true self—and step into the life you were made for.

Craig and Khalil Osiris sit down for another raw and deeply personal conversation that spans two continents and one human truth — we are more than our ideologies, more than our mistakes, more than the labels society gives us. This conversation dives into South Africa's hidden crisis, racial politics, and what it takes to move from pain to reconciliation. Drawing from years spent in prison, the profound experience of losing his son to violence, and the choice to forgive rather than hate, Khalil brings a perspective shaped by both suffering and grace. We don’t all have to agree. But we do have to be honest.

Khalil Osiris is a man who’s walked through fire. After spending a gruelling 20 years in prison, he emerged transformed and hungry to make an impact. Having earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees while behind bars, he went on to become a respected educator, speaker, and justice reform advocate—working across the U.S. to help formerly incarcerated men reintegrate into society, find employment, and rediscover their purpose. Khalil and I have known each other a long time. We’ve walked different paths, but always shared a deep commitment to truth, redemption, and calling men to live with strength and integrity. In this conversation, we tackle some of the pressing issues of our time—race, cancel culture, virtue signaling, tribalism, and the labels that so often divide us. But more than that, we explore the power of owning your story, breaking free from the past and stepping into a life of purpose. This isn't about pointing fingers or stirring controversy. It's about honest dialogue, grounded in grace and our shared humanity. It's about finding common ground and building bridges in a world that desperately needs them. Join us as we discuss accountability, masculinity, brotherhood, and the transformative power of redemption. Discover what it means to live with conviction, courage and hope.

Craig sits down with men’s mental health crusader and TRC veteran Thulani Grenville-Grey to explore one of the most important and overlooked issues in society today: the emotional struggle that so many men carry in silence. Having both worked extensively with men across South Africa, Craig and Thulani unpack why men find it so hard to ask for help, why so many suffer in silence, and what lies beneath their reluctance to express pain and vulnerability. They also share their unique insights and moving stories from the front lines of helping men heal and reconnect with their true selves. This frank and sometimes uncomfortable conversation offers a rare glimpse into the male psyche - how early experiences shape identity, how cultural expectations suppress emotion, and how unspoken pain often drives destructive behaviour. It’s a raw and deeply human look at what it means to be a man - and how healing, vulnerability and true brotherhood can change everything. If you’re a man, or love a man, you need to hear this.

In this episode, Craig takes a brutally honest look at a fictional series that’s hit a nerve across the globe - 'Adolescence'. What unfolds in the story is tragic, but what it reveals about the world our boys are growing up in is even more alarming. This isn’t about blaming masculinity. It’s about understanding what goes wrong when we don't guide it, nurture it, and validate it. Join Craig in uncovering the deeper truth behind the headlines - because it’s only by confronting it that we can raise the kind of men this world desperately needs.

In this raw and honest conversation, former pro footballer Silver Shabalala opens up about his journey from the streets of Soweto to the national spotlight - and the personal cost that came with it. From sudden fame and fast money to fathering nine children and falling into the traps that destroy so many men, Silver shares his story with rare vulnerability and courage - revealing the hard truths about life, manhood and fame he wishes someone had told him when he was young. Now, driven by the absence of mentors in his own life and a deep desire to help others avoid the same pitfalls, Silver is actively engaged in mentoring men across South Africa - guiding them through the challenges of masculinity, identity and success. This eye-opening episode uncovers the four big lies young men grow up believing - about sex, power, success, and what it truly means to be a man - and unpacks a more authentic, life-giving vision of masculinity rooted in truth, brotherhood and accountability. This isn’t just a story about football. It’s about falling, rising, and finding purpose in pain. If you’re tired of false masculinity and ready for something real, this conversation will hit home.

A father’s love is one of the most powerful forces in a daughter’s life. It shapes her confidence, her sense of worth, and the way she sees the world.

Are we holding up our end of the deal? Tune in for a compelling conversation that challenges the way we think about rights, freedom, and accountability.

60% of South African children grow up without a father. 10,000 babies are abandoned every year. But what if men chose to show up? In this episode, I sit down with Sihle Mooi, a passionate advocate for fatherhood and men’s development who leads ‘Hotel Hope’, a home providing love and care for abandoned children.

Many ask how a beer brand can get involved in the fight against gender-based violence (GBV) when alcohol abuse is such a large contributing factor to abuse in the first place. Kerryn Greenleaf, Brand Director of South Africa's biggest beer brand Carling Black Label (CBL), points out that it is the abuse of alcohol not the use of it that leads to GBV. She adds that CBL will always be an unapologetically masculine brand. This aligns perfectly with Craig’s assertion that true masculinity is a great gift to society. Listen as Craig and Kerryn discuss how a beer brand’s commitment to understanding and inspiring men can play such an important role in combatting GBV and how the unlikely collaboration between a beer brand and a non-profit organisation has yielded such tremendous results in dealing with the scourge of GBV.

Who would have thought?!

True masculinity is a great gift to the world and all who live in it. Yet the narrative about masculinity has become confused and negative. Men often feel as though they need to justify themselves, that being a man is a bad thing and masculinity is something to be ashamed of. The opposite is true! Men are made to be a powerful force for good, and we need to understand how to harness that force. In this episode Craig goes deep into the power of positive masculinity - what it looks like, how to live by it and why it matters. It will inspire men to step up, live a purpose-driven life and use their masculine strength for good, and to be great allies to women.

The most important human relationship you will ever have, is the one you have with yourself. How healthy is that relationship? You spend every moment of your life with yourself.

Join Craig as he unpacks how to transform your inner dialogue and answer the crucial questions of your identity, value and place in the world. You have something unique and brilliant to offer the world! But you will never realise your full potential or be a force for good without a clear sense of your identity and value.

It’s hard to know what to believe anymore. We live in what many call the ‘post-truth era.’ Some say we’ve moved beyond the information age into the age of disinformation. Fake news and conspiracy theories abound. Political correctness and cancel culture silence honest dialogue, while valid opinions are branded as hate speech. Big tech and social media giants collude with politicians to control the narrative. Algorithms feed us information we want to hear as we retreat into echo chambers that confirm our views and justify our biases. The battle for truth is real, and it’s one we must win. Truth is absolutely essential to freedom - every dictator in history has used lies to enslave their citizens. Join Craig as he discusses the importance of seeking and speaking the truth in a society increasingly hostile to it

You have one body, one mind and one life. What are you doing with them? Join Craig as he speaks with renowned physical trainer and motivator, Steve Mululu, about how to honour yourself and those you love by being the best possible version of yourself. Be warned though, once you listen to this you will have no more excuses to be anything but your best, physically, mentally and emotionally. There is more to the story: When Steve suffered a life-threatening brain haemorrhage early last year, doctors told him he had a 5% chance of survival. After three risky surgeries, temporarily losing his sight, and being unable to walk, he made a miraculous and full recovery. Doctors credited his incredible resilience and rapid recovery to his high level of physical fitness. Looking at him today, you'd never have an inkling he was on the edge of life and death not that long ago — a testament to the strength of his mind and determination of will to push past pain and fully rehabilitate to his optimal physical self. If this doesn't prove the life-giving power of being physically in shape, nothing will!

Very few of us arrive at adulthood emotionally whole, free, and brimming with confidence and a strong sense of identity. Instead, we often carry hidden insecurities and doubts about ourselves and who we are. The messages we receive during our formative years from the significant people in our lives deeply impact our developing hearts and minds. Every child needs to feel seen, loved, known, and validated, and to know they are safe. Unfortunately, the messages we receive from parents, siblings, peers, and society often fail to meet this need. The voice of our parents can become our inner voice as adults, either positive and affirming or negative and demeaning. Interactions with siblings, peers, and society can also hurt and undermine our self-esteem. In this episode, Craig invites you to embark on a journey of self-healing and transformation. Discover how to break free from the limiting beliefs that hold you back and step into the confident, whole person you were always meant to be. This podcast offers the insights and inspiration you need to begin your path to emotional freedom and self-empowerment so you can make the biggest impact on the world around you!

The dangers to society come in many different forms and change from one generation to the next but the strength and character needed to fight against them remain the same. History has thrown war, slavery, corruption, injustice, poverty and countless other malignant forces against humanity but it has never failed to produce brave men and women to stand against them. Seth Mazibuko is such a person. He was the youngest member of the group of students that led the 1976 Soweto uprising and held prisoner for 7 years on Robben Island. He sacrificed freedom and safety in the fight against apartheid and he continues to fight today against corruption and oppression of a different sort, heading up the Moral Regeneration Movement. Join Craig and Seth in this profound conversation about courage, sacrifice and the fight for true freedom. Learn how to be an activist for love and truth and a danger to corruption and oppression in all its forms. Be inspired to be the change you want to see in the world.

Fathers, you are the most important men in your children’s lives. Your role is irreplaceable. How you pitch up as a man and as a father will have a life-long of impact on your children. But in South Africa over 60% are growing up without a present father. Research has shown a clear and undeniable link between absent fathers and major social issues such as gender-based violence, low education outcomes, mental illness, teenage pregnancy, drug abuse and crime. How do we end the epidemic of fatherlessness and heal our nation’s gaping father wound?
