A book club where we (those who identify as men and those who want to understand men better) review great works of literature and discuss what they have to say about masculine archetypes. We are two life-long friends, one straight, one gay; a writer, and a doctor of computer science and philosophy, who have vastly different ideas of what it means to be a man.

Such a great podcast. Inspirational and insightful. And dripping in cool.
This is a well-produced podcast with smart discussion on both old and new literary works. Not a dry moment (or glass!) in any episode. The podcast centers around masculine themes, but as a woman I still enjoy and learn from the discussion. Worth a listen!

Interesting, intelligent, insightful and inspiring.
