The Fo0H Tribe Podcast - Hog -Topic #5 - Mind The Gap - #fo0h #thefo0htribe

Welcome to the twenty seventh episode of The Fo0H Tribe Podcast, Where Men Can Be Men.

I'll be honest, this episode was kind of like a "barbed wire pill" for me this week. Most of the information I shared, was tough to swallow. It was tough for a number of reasons. While reviewing the data, the information shared is confirming just how hard it is out there in the "real world" and marketplace for me & women of all cultures and backgrounds. I was at a loss for words and genuinely sad hearing and learning more about the real state of American men today. 

I did find myself trying to force myself to identify with my experience and at the end of the day,  I stopped, because I do happen my high school and college education I can fall back on. Not to mention all of my relevant work experience that an organization is willing to pay me to help them meet and exceed their goals. So you might notice a couple of times during this podcast when I start sharing my experience and realize that I'm not able to fully identify with the research. I do not want to pretend or try jamming a square peg in a round hole in or to try and relate with folks. The bottom line is, I do have my education and that does provide me with an advantage. I would be a hypocrite if I didn't admit this fact about myself and that is not what this podcast is about.

So this week's episode is a little shorter because I wasn't going to try and spend time sharing my personal experience if it doesn't actually reflect the information shared in this study. You would see through it and I would know it's not a true representation of the data shared.   

As far as the intro music, I just stumbled onto this bad and I thought their music was perfect for this week. The name of the band is, The Record Company and the title of the song is, Off The Ground! The entire album has a sludgy blues vibe to it that I hope you like, I sure do!!! I've also included a link to the State-Of-American-Men Study 2023 below in case you wanted to review it on your own. ZERO PRESSURE!!!

Here is the link to the song: https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=eQz5bxrq0WY&si=kgsi0TnPUO4RCse8
