Scott Galloway with Ben Stiller: Notes on Being a Man

Video Description

Join bestselling author and cohost of the Pivot podcast Scott Galloway for a conversation about modern masculinity with Emmy- and DGA-winning director, writer, producer and actor Ben Stiller — and Galloway’s new book, Notes on Being a Man. For years, Scott Galloway has been sounding the alarm about a crisis in modern American masculinity. Boys are less likely to graduate from high school or college than girls, one in seven men reports having no friends, men account for three of every four deaths of despair in America, and a culture reluctant to address these problems has created a void filled by voices espousing misogyny. What can we do to reverse these trends? In Notes on Being a Man, Galloway explores what it means to be a man in modern America — promoting the importance of mental health, sharing the story of his parents’ difficult divorce, and exploring the challenges of raising two boys. The result is a humane, practical guide for rethinking masculinity’s role in our culture. Hear Galloway and Stiller, longtime friends, in a candid, funny, clear-eyed analysis of American masculinity — offering practical solutions for how men can follow their talents, cultivate kindness, raise their kids right, and take action to improve their lives.
