Michail Antonio and James Bloodworth talk to Afua Hirsch

An open, honest and urgent conversation about modern masculinity, and the value of building community and connection among boys and men. Challenging ideas emerging in the so-called ‘manosphere’, former Premier League footballer Michail Antonio and investigative journalist James Bloodworth explore how the drive for power and status isn’t helping anyone – including men themselves. They talk to writer and broadcaster Afua Hirsch.

Antonio’s book Humans, Not Robots: When Elite Sport and Real Life Collide raises awareness about the mental health of players on and off the pitch. Bloodworth is author of Lost Boys: A Personal Journey Through the Manosphere, an astonishing undercover investigation into an array of paranoid and misogynistic subcultures.
