Tenacity

What is it to try, try and try again? What makes us want to keep going even when things aren’t going so well. Today Parker and I take a look at the trait of tenacity! Tenacity, that ability to stick things out, to keep trying, and to maintain an outlook that gives security in a course of action. How does it help us, and at what point does it disable us as well… In this episode we discuss character traits and look at what it takes to maintain a tenacious outlook and keep on moving forward, even when things don't work as we hoped.

Toxic Masculinity

Dickishness Part II - Last week we discussed male arrogance, confidence and the aspect of “Dickishness”... This week is a follow up and, in our opinion, a natural progression into a “mystical” term called Toxic Masculinity! I say mystical because for many, including myself, this term has been used for so much labeling and as a scapegoat for all that ails man... However, for many, including myself, it is a bit of a mystery... What is toxic masculinity, what part is toxic and what part is a really nice catch phrase? This week, Parker and I try to give ourselves clarity on this topic that has come to symbolize so much. If we are looking for an answer, you might be as well... Join us as we start to scrape the surface and understand what is toxic about masculinity and what we need to do to make this a non-issue...

Dickishness

A look at what point arrogance and confidence cross over to dickishness. A more detailed look at the character traits that are often taken as someone being a “Dick” in their interaction with others and in the view of themselves. Parker and Sal look at the pros and cons of dickish behavior, arrogance in men, and the part such expressions play in the interpretation of personal confidence. Is it really being crude, rude and full of crap, funny and expressive, or is it a mechanism for hiding inadequacies and self-doubt? Join us in this exploration...

Rage

What’s all the rage? Today we are taking a look at rage in our society. With an unheard of number of mass shootings, school violence, interpersonal crimes (domestic violence, road rage, assault…), we ask “where is all this rage” coming from? What kind of things are triggering us, why are we so bad at dealing with it, what part is digital media playing, what can we do to act differently and more...
