In this episode, Michael and Russell dig into the challenges men face, especially around masculinity, health, and responsibility. They discuss how everyday comforts and environmental toxins are silently lowering testosterone and weakening men, both physically and mentally. They go into the importance of reclaiming the warrior spirit, embracing discomfort, and taking control of your health, values, and actions. With hard-hitting truths about pain, responsibility, and the hidden war on masculinity, this episode challenges men to rise above the modern pitfalls and become stronger, more intentional leaders.
