  • What ‘The Future Is Female’ Has Meant for Men
    2026/06/18
    For decades, the fight for gender equality has squarely focused on lifting women up—in the workplace, politics, and beyond. But according to Richard Reeves, president of the American Institute for Boys and Men, it’s the men who now need support. From childhood, boys are falling behind in school. Men are trailing women in college completion by an even wider margin than existed (in the opposite direction) when Title IX became law in 1972. They also die by suicide about four times more often, with especially troubling increases among younger men over the past two decades. In this episode, Reeves sits down with Shilo Brooks to discuss why the struggles facing boys and men have become politically impossible to discuss, why they need to stop hearing that “the future is female” and that their masculinity is “toxic,” and what the specific policies are that he believes will help them.

  • Walter Isaacson on the Sentence That Created America
    2026/06/11
    If America has a mission statement, it is this: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” In a special conversation recorded at the George W. Bush Presidential Center, acclaimed biographer Walter Isaacson discusses his new book, The Greatest Sentence Ever Written, and the extraordinary story behind the Declaration of Independence’s most famous line. What happened behind the scenes as Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin, and the other founders argued over, revised, and refined the words that would become America’s founding creed? Plus: the tension between individual liberty and the common good, the complicated relationship between Jefferson and Adams, and the enduring challenge of living up to ideals that were revolutionary in 1776 and remain aspirational today.
