Episode 38
BRONSON LEE NORTON | Strong People Carry Heavy Things
Bronson Lee Norton is a musician, podcaster, bowhunter, and bodybuilder, and in 2015 he heard a woman's cries for help coming from a nearby house he happened to be walking past, on a route he didn't usually take.
Then, like a real capital-M man he went charging in through that door and changed three lives, including his own.
But rather than allowing that event to define him, he used it to redefine himself, thereby turning one of the worst events into his life into a doorway through which some of the best things entered.
In our conversation we discussed
- His epic story, the notoriety he earned, what he did with it, and what he didn't do.
- The importance of doing things that make you like yourself
- The uniqueness of this era of men, how we each get the chance to learn from the best fathers around the world, when our fathers only had their own,
- What's missing from modern music, and how many bands, including his, are exploring the boundaries between sound and worldbuilding
- And finally, our perspectives on Jack Donovan's aesthetic and philosophical universe, and the impact that it has on the Renaissance of Men
All these topics I've listed are truly just scratching the surface in what might be my favorite conversation of all the ones I've had thus far.
I think you'll hear it, as two men get to know each other, discovered their shared philosophy around self-creation, and thereby build a connection.
