Modern Manhood: Elliott Tanti and Michael Vecchio Pt 1/Men and Women in Politics

Published: June 30, 2017, 12:54 a.m.

b'I started listening to The Highlevel Showdown, a local politics show with two guys, Elliott Tanti and Michael Vecchio, from opposite sides of the political view talk about what the heck is going on in the world of politics. Now, lucky for me they also were curious about questions of manhood, and questions in how masculinity works in politics as much as I did. Even more lucky for me, they were curious about their own masculinity, and how their lives intertwined as immigrants, first generation Canadians (like they are), and most importantly as long time friends.\\n\\nNow because I had a lot to ask of them and the conversation was flowing I decided to split this into two parts. The first part you\\u2019ll hear right now is Elliott, Michael, and myself talking about what was going on with the intersection of politics and masculinity which involves, yep, Donald Trump. But we also talk local politics and specifically the struggles that women have to get into politics, be heard, and the harassment they face.\\n\\nCheck all episodes of the podcast at modernmanhood.org'
