ManKind Podcast
The OLD mold of manhood is on its way out, leaving men feeling stuck in an outdated way of being. The ManKind Podcast gives men tools to break through these molds and show them a new way to embrace their manhood. We talk with mission-driven authors, leaders, and change-makers to share tools and insights to help you build your self and find a clear direction in life. So if you’re feeling stuck, confused about what’s next, or looking for a dose of clarity and hope in your day, stick around, and you may just come away with a better idea of the kind of man, and human being, you want to become. Created by the ManKind Project USA. Hosted by Brandon Clift and Boysen Hodgson.

201 - Fire in the Belly, Father & Son Healing with Sam Keen & Gifford Keen from 2015
Text Us Your Feedback! (Likes, Dislikes, Guest/Conversation Recommendations).
In this powerful and intimate archival episode from 2015, we revisit a conversation between philosopher and author Sam Keen (Fire in the Belly) and his son, novelist Gifford Keen, about their co-authored book Prodigal Father, Wayward Son: A Roadmap to Reconciliation.
This interview dives into the heart of a decades-long journey of estrangement, conflict, forgiveness, and reconnection between father and son. Through personal stories and raw reflection, Sam and Gifford explore how mythic memories, unspoken pain, and generational expectations shaped their relationship — and how truth-telling and deep listening became their path to healing.
As we honor the recent passing of Sam Keen, this episode stands as both a tribute to his legacy in the men's movement and a profound lesson on vulnerability, accountability, and the possibility of transformation in even the most fractured relationships.
Themes:
– Fatherhood and masculinity
– Intergenerational healing
– The power of storytelling
– Forgiveness and emotional maturity
– Rewriting personal mythology
Recommended For:
Men on a path of personal growth, fathers and sons seeking reconciliation, and anyone interested in the deep work of emotional truth-telling and human connection.
