Warren Farrell: Why Boys Are Struggling More Than Ever (And No One's Talking About It)

We live in a world where boys and young men are facing a silent crisis. Young men are twice as likely to overdose, six times more likely to commit suicide than young women, and more than nine times more likely to end up in prison.Recent studies show that over 90% of mass attackers are male, with more than two-thirds of them under 35. Boys are growing up with less-involved fathers and are more likely to drop out of school, drink, do drugs, become delinquent, and end up in prison. The most dangerous person today is a young man who feels lost, and alone.This is where Dr. Warren Farrell comes in. He’s one of the leading voices on these issues, exploring why boys are struggling so much and what we can do about it. In his groundbreaking book, The Boy Crisis, Dr. Farrell digs deep into the reasons behind this crisis and offers real solutions to help boys find their way. He also tackles the changing nature of relationships in his book Role Mate to Soul Mate, showing how couples can move from just fulfilling roles to building deep, meaningful connections.Dr. Farrell isn’t just a writer; he’s a speaker and expert who’s been pushing the conversation forward on gender, parenting, and mental health for years.

Próspera and the Quest to Unleash Human Potential in Honduras, with Virginia Mann

Join me in a simultaneously hopeful and outrageous conversation with my guest, Virginia Mann, a Honduran resident and employee of the startup city Próspera in the special economic zone (Zonas de Empleo y Desarrollo Económico—ZEDEs) of Roatán, Honduras. You are going to learn Virginia’s life’s story as well as the history of her homeland, its residents, and the arrival of Próspera, the company that is changing the lives of hundreds of people in Honduras for the better—and is under attack for doing it. This is not a unique Central American tale. It is also very similar to the stories of many African lands. That is why this episode is so personal to me. Below are the two negative articles about Próspera mentioned in the interview: - Democracy Now piece: https://democracynow.org/2023/6/28/honduras_private_charter_cities - Rest of World piece: https://restofworld.org/2021/honduran-islanders-push-back-libertarian-startup/
