We don't just talk about all serious stuff, we like to have fun along the way! Check out this short clip from this week's episode to hear about Paul's morning routine:
One of the things Sovann talked about on the podcast was the importance and challenge men face of building meaningful relationships with other men.
"It's hard enough as guys to intentionally and purposefully connect with guys. So when everything shut down...I'm just going to hang out at home, get through the work day. It's a real battle."

Man They Remember Podcast, Episode 009: Movies and what we can learn from them
Sometimes movies are just fun to watch and there is absolutely nothing beneficial to them. Other times, there are great fictional stories that have been created to help teach a point. And then there are those movies based on a true story that have a way of changing the way we think about life. Great movies come from great stories. Talk about being the kind of man they remember when we're gone, how about being the kind of many they make a movie about! Today, we talk about some of the movies that have had an impact on who we are as men.
Man They Remember Podcast, Episode 008: Ham: Are You The Chicken Or The Pig?
Andy Andrews said: “When confronted with a challenge, the committed heart will search for a solution. The undecided heart searches for an escape.” If you look at manhood in our culture today, commitment is one of the most pressing issues. The way it is right now when things get difficult, there are too many men that are ready to look for an escape. But commitment requires sacrifice, it requires sticking with someone or something through the challenges. In this episode, we talk about various aspects of commitment and why so many of us struggle with this issue.
MTR Podcast, Episode 007: Helpful: We Rise By Lifting Others
In episode 7 of the MTR Podcast, we talk about the virtue of helpfulness. Our world tends to think of ourselves first, but that's not the case for the kind of man they remember.
MTR Podcast 006: Honesty. Isn't that just something for little kids?
Mr. Rogers once said: "Honest is often very hard. The truth is often painful. But the freedom it can bring is worth the trying." We tend to think of honesty as a lesson that you teach kids in a picture book, but not something that grown men need to wrestle with. And yet, the consequences of dishonest men plague our culture. In fact, in some arenas we actually celebrate when men get away with something dishonest. We also talk about Pixar movies, movies that people watch over and over again and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.
MTR Podcast, Episode 005: Hopeful? In a world like this? Yeah right...
I used to think that being cynical and negative made my sound smart. Now I just think it makes me sound like a jerk. In episode 005 of the Man They Remember Podcast, we talk about the virtue of hope, and how we need to plant seeds of hope today if we hope to grow a garden of hope for the future.
MTR, Episode 004: What Happened to Honor, How Do We Teach Honor To The Next Generation?
We live in an era where people want to be honored without having done anything honorable. Richard L. Evans once said: "It is priceless to find a person who will take responsibility, who will finish and follow through to the final detail-to know when someone has accepted an assignment that it will be effectively, conscientiously completed." It used to be that a handshake was more binding than a contract and that when someone gave you their word, you could take that to the bank. One politician said: "Before we had contracts we had handshakes that expressed that we were making an arrangement that was based on our honor." What has happened to honor and how do we teach honor to the next generation?
Episode 001: Why Would Anyone Care About Virtue Anyway?

Can You Imagine A World Without Men?
In 2009, in response to a new scientific theory which postulated that it might be possible for women to get pregnant without Men, several articles with the title "Does The World Need Men Anymore?" started popping up.
In more recent years hashtags like "kill all men" and "Men in cages" have trended on Twitter.
In fact, if you do a google search for "Why are men idiots?" you'll find articles from major media outlets like Time magazine, NPR & Science Daily referencing actual studies that have been done that show, as the LA Times headline read, "Proved At Last, Men Really Are Idiots."
The question is, what has happened to all the men? Where have all the men gone? What is a man?
