[REBROADCAST FROM April 20, 2026] For his book American Men, journalist Jordan Ritter Conn spent four years chronicling the lives of four different men struggling with various aspects of their masculine identity, grappling with violent tendencies, trauma from their past, addictive behavior, gender identity and sexuality, and more. The book explores how American men are navigating the lessons they've been taught about masculinity, and the lives they actually want to lead.
