Bloodworth submerged himself in the manosphere beginning in 2018 and stayed in it for years. Now he has written a book called: Lost Boys: a Personal Journey Through the Manosphere. He talks to a very perplexed FRDH host Michael Goldfarb about the manosphere and those it ensnares and how easily it leads them to embrace a fascist world view.
