Episode 2-"The Boy's Manners"
Listen now
Description
In the second episode of "Tonight's Reading Assignment" Podcast, I discuss Chapter 2 of the 1899 book, Bringing Up Boys: A Study. I briefly summarize the main ideas that stood out to me. And, I give my thoughts on how this compares to my own experience as a father. Chapter 2 was called "The Boy's Manners." And, the focus was on just that, manners. Lacking the focus of chapter 1, I struggled to connect with chapter 2. Also, make sure to checkout my Substack newsletter where I also discuss fatherhood, along with middle age life and pop culture.
