Adam is a husband and father of four (trying for more), an entrepreneur with a specialized focus in D2D marketing, and the founder of a social movement dedicated to “making men great again.” Together, they break down the war against strong men, the rise of weak, passive males, and why society is crumbling under the weight of failed leadership and radical ideology.   From dissecting the myth of “toxic masculinity” to exposing how feminism was hijacked to break down the traditional family, this episode pulls no punches.
