Summary
Civil discourse is a skillset that seems to be in increasingly rare supply but if we have any hope of solving our toughest challenges, it's going to require men of all races, religious beliefs, and sides of the political aisle to come together to have these challenging discussions.
And, that's why I've really been looking forward to getting my conversation with Byron Davis to you guys. I knew that we wouldn't agree on everything we discussed but I was pleasantly surprised that we were significantly closer than those who prey on the outraged would have the population believe.
We talk about the importance of the crucial conversations, why and how our egos get in the way, what "dismantling the system" means, the "bait and switch" of the BLM organization's messaging, cancel culture, and the proper role of government in our lives.

BYRON DAVIS
I'm honored to introduce you to my guest today.
His name is Byron Davis and through his ministry, Legacy Men, his goal is to equip and empower men of all walks of life to be the difference within the world around them.
Byron and I hadn't ever had a conversation before this so I didn't know a whole lot about him and his work prior to our conversation but I was so impressed with his knowledge, articulate thoughts on some of the most difficult topics we can discuss, and his genuine desire to lead from the front.
He's a former USA National Swim team member and American record holder. Now, he's a speaker, author, and the founder of Authority Labs which helps leaders master their message and increase their influence.
BATTLE READY
Look, most men know they want to improve in some area of their life. And, generally, most of you know what it is you need to do.
But let's be honest, knowing what to do and actually doing it are separate issues. And, I know, if you're anything like me, that developing the discipline to do the work required is extremely challenging.
That's why I created 30 Days to Battle Ready. It's a free program designed to give you a 30 day track to run on which will equip you with the tools you need to develop discipline, maintain consistency, and finally achieve your goals – whatever they are (which we'll help you identify if needed).
