CLINT ROE: What makes a good man today?

Author: Christian Ward December 6, 2021 Duration: 1:44:59
What, really, are the qualities of a good man today? Toughness? Grit? Courage? The reliability of the one who comes home after a long day at the office, even if that office down the hall or in the basement, and earns the money that pays bills then expects dinner to be on the table? Is it simply the man who takes out the trash? What sorts of exchanges are men and women making in the day to day bargaining of marriages and partnerships and how are they changing?

Christian Ward hosts Interesting Humans, a series built on a simple, compelling idea: extraordinary stories are everywhere, woven into the fabric of ordinary life. While we might interact with hundreds of people, we rarely get beneath the surface. This podcast is an invitation to do exactly that. Each conversation is a deliberate exploration of the mindset and philosophy that drive people from all walks of life-artists, thinkers, community builders, those dedicated to physical and mental well-being. You’ll hear how creativity sparks in unexpected places, how personal challenges are reframed into fuel for achievement, and how quiet dedication in fields from culture to fitness shapes a meaningful existence. The focus is less on external accolades and more on the internal landscapes: the motivations, the setbacks navigated, and the unique perspectives that make someone's narrative resonate. It’s about listening for the depth in the everyday, discovering the remarkable threads in the stories of people who create, solve, move, teach, and love. Tune in for genuine, meandering talks that reveal what we often miss in passing, and find connection in the shared human experience of growth and understanding.
