In this episode, we welcome Josh Hawley to the show. He is a United States Senator representing the state of Missouri. He is also a NYT bestselling author of The Tyranny of Big Tech. Before being elected to the US Senate in 2018, he worked as a First Amendment lawyer and law professor and served as the Attorney General of the state of Missouri. In this interview, we discuss his latest book Manhood: The Masculine Virtues America Needs, why the lack of manhood in America is a threat to our Republic, why the Bible is the ultimate roadmap for moral masculinity, the power that pornography has in keeping men from being husbands and fathers, how Epicureanism aids in the fight against manhood, the six male virtues every man should strive to attain, why he focuses the majority of his discussion of biblical manhood on men described in the Old Testament, and much more.

This is Undaunted Life, a man's podcast. I'm your host Kyle Thompson. Let's get into it.

0:26.8

All right, guys. Today we've got a special guest on the podcast. His name is Josh Holly.

0:30.2

So he is a United States Senator representing the state of Missouri. He's the New York Times best

0:34.5

selling author of the book, The Tyranny of Big Tech and his latest book, which is out now,

0:38.4

which is really the center point of our entire talk today, which is manhood, the masculine virtues

0:43.2

American needs. And before he was elected to the US Senate in 2018, he worked as a First Amendment

0:48.8

lawyer and a law professor and served as the attorney general of the state of Missouri.

0:52.8

But the thing about this book in this interview today is yes, he's a politician. Some of you don't
