It seems like it's political month around here, but with midterms coming up, I think it's

important that we discuss some of these crucial political topics that impact us, our families,

and our communities so much. Today, I'm joined by former Navy SEAL and Congressional candidate

Eli Crane to talk about why it's crucial. Men have at least some interest in politics,

how courage in you breeds courage in others, the collapse of some of our most predominant

social institutions, the concept of ideological subversion and the need for principle over power

in our elected officials. You're a man of action. You live life to the fullest. You embrace

guys who are successful on all sorts of different fronts, extract some of their knowledge and wisdom

and lessons and everything else. And then deliver that to you and me. Hopefully we can take some of

this information and apply it in our own lives. That's my my goal, my hope and my desire. So we're

going to get into it in a minute with Eli here. Just want to let you know we have the masculinity

manifesto. That's my second book. Just came out last week. Really, really appreciate all the support.

Make sure you pick up a copy of the masculinity manifesto wherever books are sold. Also, I was a
