In this bold and timely conversation, Andrea Miller and Professor Neil Minsky dive deep into the growing influence of the manosphere—a loosely connected online world of influencers like Andrew Tate and Jordan Peterson. From toxic masculinity and online radicalization to the search for role models, they unpack how these ideologies affect young men, feminism, and society at large.
