Thursday, April 23, 2026

Are men being pushed out—or pushed too far? Nick Freitas explains what happens next.

In this episode, former Green Beret and author Nick Freitas joins Joe Pags to break down what many are calling a growing “war on men”—and why he believes it’s starting to backfire.

They discuss how cultural messaging around masculinity has shifted over the past two decades, what it’s doing to young men today, and the real-world consequences we’re already seeing. Freitas also explains the two paths he sees young men taking—and why one of them could have serious long-term implications for society.

This is a direct, no-spin conversation about responsibility, purpose, and what it means to be a man in today’s world.
