The Glenn Beck Podcast (Oct 18, 2025) - Episode 270: "The Secret to Becoming a MAN"

It's time to make men "dangerous" again. Father and son Matt and Maxim Smith join Glenn to break down their epic alternative to a college education. While most young people descend into debt to prepare for jobs already threatened by the rise of AI, 19-year-old Maxim has spent what would have been his college years becoming an EMT, wrangling horses in Wyoming, sailing the Falkland Islands, earning a pilot's license, learning Muay Thai in Thailand, and more as the first beta tester for "The Preparation," an adventure designed to make young men "confident, competent, and dangerous." In a culture that drives young men away from masculinity and toward unlimited pornography and video games, our sons can still become "Renaissance men" by bucking the system of radical leftist-dominated academia and instead becoming financially savvy men of virtue and real-world skill.
