A More Complete Beast | JACK DONOVAN

What does it mean to be a complete beast? This is a question my guest, Jack Donovan, attempts to answer in his latest book, appropriately titled, A More Complete Beast. There is a reason the title is likely to resonate with you, as a man. Each of us understands that we are both man and beast.
Today we cover so much about the subject of masculinity including why being a man has to be an intentional choice, the power of what he calls the "conquering eye," how to avoid becoming a victim of victims, and how each and every one of us can become a more complete beast.
SHOW HIGHLIGHTS
What it means to become a more complete beast Why you have to make an intentional choice to be a man Why men are perceived as a threat to society Why you should challenge yourself as a man The four masculine tactical virtues - strength, courage, mastery, honor Why some people try to redefine words to fit their narrative The power of the "conquering eye" Why it's important to define an honor code for yourself Why you should care about some people's opinions Avoiding become the victims of the victims Sifting through the noise of others Why there is no honor in being a victim, only in overcoming it Why vulnerability is not as powerful as modern society would have you believe Why masculinity is not a mask
JACK DONOVAN
Gentlemen, my guest today is a man a lot of you are familiar with and someone I've had on the podcast before.
His name is Jack Donovan and he is the author of several books on the subject of modernity and masculinity including The Way of Men, A Sky Without Eagles, Becoming a Barbarian, and his latest release, A More Complete Beast.
As you may know, Jack is a fascinating man and probably one you wouldn't expect to hear on this podcast (in fact, I made a joke about Jack, a pagan, and myself, a Mormon, walking into an ax-throwing bar just after this interview). That said, his views on the subject of manliness and masculinity, although controversial, resonate with so many of us because they're spot on and refreshing in a time when more and more of society has a hard time even discussing what it means to be a man.
