Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright are joined by guest Gabe Kapler, manager of the San Francisco Giants, to talk about men s mental health, healthy masculinity, and advocating for that in the sports world and in society. They talk about how Fight Club is an exploration of masculinity and the expectations of men, and how seeing masculinity as only tough, aggressive, and hypersexual is limiting and damaging to men s mental health and wellbeing. Also, Alan may have been in a fight club in college, but he didn t look like Brad Pitt. Which is deeply frustrating to him, because Gabe REALLY does. No YOU VE got feelings of inadequacy related to the objectification listen, just leave Alan alone. Play this week s trivia game: Get some
