To Be a Man — The Weight Men Carry
In this episode, Karl Anthony and a guest reflect on “To Be a Man” by Dax — a song that speaks openly about the quiet pressure many men carry.
Providing. Protecting. Leading.
Often without applause.
Through the lyrics, Karl and his guest explore the expectations placed on fathers, husbands, and sons, and the loneliness that can come with trying to hold everything together.
The conversation turns to family, generational influence, and the example a man leaves behind for the next generation.
Some men carry the weight silently.
Sometimes a song finally says what they never could.
