Summary

What is the crap that is no longer serving us? In true comedic fashion, actor, comedian, and writer Rainn Wilson brings his humor and humility to an inspiring conversation on topics including: Workaholism as an expected and celebrated trait of masculinity Desiring acceptance and feeling excluded behind-the-scenes in Hollywood Family life, including parenting, couples’ therapy, and how Holiday, his wife of nearly 30 years, took the brunt of his entitlement Initiating conversation and connection in male friendships With personal stories, and a bonus analysis of Dwight Schrute as an unexpected feminist hero, Rainn invites us to examine ourselves, and the world around us in order to do the work to live a more present and connected life. The Man Enough Podcast is produced by Wayfarer Studios and presented by Proctor and Gamble, in partnership with Cadence 13, an Audacy company.
