Summary

We felt that we needed to have a conversation on the effects of masculinity on gun violence and mass shootings in the United States. Media coverage and national dialogue rarely connects these tragedies to issues of manhood and misogyny. There’s no one that has been writing and speaking about this longer and more consistently than Jackson Katz, PhD—bestselling author, internationally renowned educator, and a major figure in the movement for gender equality. In this special episode, he brings his expertise to a timely conversation with passion and urgency, imploring men to reexamine what it means to be a protector and have the moral courage to fight for policies that truly serve our society.

0:03.7	Viewer discretion is advised. Hello everyone and welcome to Maninoff I'm Justin Baldoni I'm Liz Plank I'm Jamie Heath and
0:19.2	look we're not a we're not a current event show.
0:24.2	This is not a news show.
0:26.0	This is a podcast that focuses on masculinity.
0:29.8	However, there are certain times, unfortunately it's happening daily and weekly where current events and the conversation around masculinity are intertwined in a meshed and we would be remiss to not
0:46.4	do a special episode specifically this week about gun violence and how it relates to masculinity and how it is gendered.

1:16.2	I would encourage you to stay in the room, which is something that we talk about a lot.
1:19.5	If this was maybe sent to you by somebody that cares about you.
1:24.3	Encourage you to just listen, just as we are.
1:28.2	When lives are at stake, the least that we could do
1:30.8	and perhaps the most manly thing we could do is to shut up and

1:39.9	let that into our hearts. So with that, Liz Plank, can you tell the audience a little bit
1:46.6	about Jackson Katz, who is our incredible guest today?
1:49.2	Yes, we wholeheartedly couldn't think, yeah, of anyone who's better to speak on this issue than
