0:00.0	A single theme is too narrow for great minds and daring hearts.
0:18.0	Get ready to enter the Lionheart with your host, Lawrence Dunning.
0:28.6	Welcome to the modern masculinity podcast, where we delve into the depths of what it means to be a man in today's world, and we explore the real lifelife challenges and triumphs that you and I face every
0:38.4	single day. My name is Hector Santhia Steb-on, and I come with no answers. Only questions for some of the
0:44.1	most wise, insightful, and grounded men that I know. So get settled in. You're listening to
0:49.6	modern masculinity. Fellas, what's going on? I hope this episode finds you well, and as always, my intention is to
1:00.1	leave you better than when it found you. And I have a good feeling that today's conversation

2:03.2	this guy's accolades and skill set. But more than anything, what I really appreciate is just that
2:07.5	he is a real and raw and authentic person. And this conversation goes all over the map. It's just
2:13.4	a, you know, ignorance is a guy's guy. And I think that you'll see that today. So anyways,
2:20.6	enough of me, enjoy this conversation with Mr. Lawrence Dunning. Lawrence, my good friend,
2:26.2	welcome back to the Mara masculinity podcast. It's great to have you here, my man.
2:29.3	Heck, that's a true honor and pleasure. I'm always brilliant when we get to catch up.
2:32.8	So catch us up. Take us back.
