Mike talks with Joan C. Williams, Distinguished Professor of Law and Hastings Foundation Chair (emerita) at University of California College of Law San Francisco.

- why moving to the center isn’t the answer

- why red states with ‘family values’ have so much family dysfunction

- toxic masculinity and deploying alternative masculinities
