Chaco and Tab are back again this week and their manifesting their Toxic Masculinity talking about...Poor Male Role ModelsThe End of Shop TalkThe gynocracy has been upon us for more than a generation and men pine for someone to look up to. Unfortunately there are a mess of toxic men out there seeking to leverage desperate men into a payday. They pretend to support traditional male values, instead though through degeneracy and deceit they lead more young men to unfulfilling lifestyles.Part of the PC culture taking over is the end of men truly speaking of what they know and the hows and whys. Generational knowledge of taking charge of your life and home is dying and with it the independence that men used to embody. As we fail to learn from our predecessors and worse fail to pass on what we know what happens? That's right the death of western society.All of that plus your voicemails, news, and is that what I think it is? A CPAP Update?
