Interview: Paul Lloyd Robson

In this episode I talked to Paul Lloyd Robson, the initiator of MANiphesto, a Kopenhagen-based mens movement, which offers a new perspective on gender.

If you want to know what it means to be virtuous for a man in 2020, and other related questions, check out this podcast.

Peggy Sastre was one of the authors along with Abnousse Shalmani of the open letter criticising #MeToo sent to the leading French newspaper, Le Monde, signed by over 100 high-profile French women.

Interview: Jamie Wheal - America and The Upsidedown

I wanted to talk to Jamie Wheal about American culture, spirituality, and history. About the strange paradoxes of American, and about his search for the American soul, in the times of 'The Upsidedown'—as the TV show Stranger things calls it.
