The Patros Podcast
Why are younger men confused more than ever about how to be a man? Statistics on fatherlessness suggest it’s because for decades men were completely absent from their children’s lives. Join Man Up CEO, Jeff Ford, and Allan Pereira, alongside a panel of guests, as they wrestle with questions aimed at helping guys develop a healthy view of masculinity and live as godly men. If you are looking for a version of masculinity that doesn’t include the words “toxic” or “soft”, or if you simply need some encouragement and a laugh, join us . . . we’ll help you become a better man.
