This is the best articulation of what it means to be a “good man” that I’ve heard in this recent discourse - it states something healthy and avoids the kind of gender essentialism that sets narrow parameters on who we’re allowed to be. I’d be up for hearing more of your thoughts on this.

Thought you’d appreciate hearing that I listened to this album for the first time this morning while deadlifting, my children coming and going in their play. Feeling waves of emotion, with a sense of gratitude at the end of the teachers and mentors (including you) who have modeled a wider range of what healthy masculinity can look and feel like. This work matters. Keep doing this heavy lifting, in the gym and with our culture. In health and community, Samuel

That album - same here, liked it enough on first listen and now bordering on obsessed. And I'd venture that it's a strong example of some of your other points here - it really feels like a progression from Stick Season, that Kahan has clearly been working on his craft and growing through it.
