“Jeff Perera is leading the field in conversations on manhood and gender based violence and in today’s discussion we get down to the root of it, with a lot of laughter on the way… he is a master of using analogies to make complex ideas and topics very relatable and understandable. We talk about the origins of manhood as it is traditionally defined, how mansculinty has a direct impact on people of other genders, and the environments that this creates; in relationships, with self, with others, and in the workplace. And maybe most importantly, we talk about building our empathy muscles.”

Carlos Andrés Gómez and Jeff Perera join The Big D podcast to “talk about helpful and unhelpful ideas of manhood and how they influence relationships. And of course, breakups. These unhelpful ideas of masculinity are not intrinsic to men or masculine people. So we talk a lot about character and qualities, what underpins gut reactions, and how we can do things differently. Together, Carlos and Jeff are the perfect messengers… This episode is loaded with sweet metaphors, laughs, and mic drops…”

I joined Tony Rezac of Basecamp for Men for a great two-part conversation.
Episode 55: ‘The Measure of a Man’ “What is the current measure of a man? The conversations that men are having ABOUT men is taking how we measure ourselves into a new arena. One with more heart and soul and more breathing room for all of us. The new measure doesn’t exclude the high-status former alpha male. It’s just requiring him to right-size his ego and stop making everything about him and his image. We have outgrown the old measure. This much is clear. The new measure will show that men are capable of a lot more than just being status ponies. I’m excited to talk to my guest today as he is an expert on the inner lives of men and is helping to create this new measure that I am speaking of.”

In Episode 58: ‘Why Do Men Do This?’ “Jeff and I look at some of the questions that we get asked about men. Why do men send dick pics? Why do men react with rage so often when they get triggered? And a couple of others. As two men that write on male psychology and the of the inner lives of men, I thought you might find it interesting to hear our takes on some of these. We also pay homage to the great Mohammed Ali.”
