EP90: Geoff Tomlinson - Why A Man Needs To Be Part Of A Brotherhood Of Men

Written By Chris Rodd

“Attempting to walk the world as a man of honour and integrity will come out for you multiple times when the shit hits the fan. And it will always give you confidence. But it will also give you a fallback, default way of being when the world is trying to knock you off of your foundation. That’s a foundation that you can’t knock a man off of if he’s determined to stay on it.”

Boys look for role models as they grow up. In a perfect world, boys would be given a solid set of principles from their fathers that would be their foundation for life. Integrity, honour, and discipline are three that Geoff Tomlinson puts at the top of the list in todays episode. Unfortunately the state of families and of society in general has left too many boys looking elsewhere for guidance. And too often being mislead. But this episode isn’t so much about what men and boys don’t have, it’s about where they can find it once they’ve realized it’s missing.

In today’s episode:

  1. The difference between what media and some women tell us they want vs the true role a man is meant to play.

  2. Integrity, honour, and a moral compass.

  3. Confusion among men about masculinity.

  4. Men’s groups: what they offer and what they are not.
