Description

Avenue M is hosted by Joey Taylor and Haroon Moghul. We’re two men on a journey of faith and meaning. In each episode we speak with remarkable guests to help us unpack the moments that shape us, the struggles that build us and the questions that intrigue us.

Are men in crisis? Joey and Haroon sat down with Richard Reeves, Avenue M’s first guest — and for very good reason: Reeves blew the whistle on what’s now a widely-acknowledged (or, at least, hotly-debated) crisis of masculinity, even as Reeves refused to confirm to stereotypes of who men are or can be. 

As men of faith who navigate a world that’s far more complex and meaningful than our caricatures allow, we appreciate Reeves’ thoughtfulness, his courage, and his sense of responsibility: Though he knew it could potentially cost him support, Reeves went ahead and explained that, yes, in fact, many men are falling behind. 

The exchange quickly became personal: Since Joey and Haroon are raising boys, and Richard’s raised a few of his own, Avenue M’s first podcast covers heavy ground—and shares insights no parent, and especially no father, should miss.
