Welcome to the inaugural episode of Collars and Calluses, a podcast dedicated to developing young men in strength, wisdom, and biblical masculinity. Hosted by Bill Smith and Rich Lusk, this episode introduces the ethos of the show, which aims to help young men understand their roles in God's kingdom and equip them for work in all areas of life. The hosts discuss the cultural confusion surrounding manhood, the impact of feminism, masculinity influencers, and the challenges young men face today. They emphasize the need for the fear of God, the creation mandate, and the importance of overcoming sloth and other internal challenges.
