On The Patrick Coffin Show, I interview mentors — sages and survivors of the culture war — who share invaluable insights into the annoying (often dangerous) “isms” and how to answer them, like relativism, secularism, scientism, atheism, and neo-Marxism.
People everywhere are looking for meaningful media that focuses more on the personal than on the political, that provides a perspective based on the gospel without compromise.
Mike Pantile
In this week’s Patrick Coffin Show, men’s coach Mike Pantile (panTEElay) discusses the crisis of masculinity in the modern world, highlighting the importance of fitness, self-discipline, and recovery from pornography addiction.
The Canadian Pantile (literally one of the strongest men in Canada) emphasizes the need for men to reject the superficial values of movements like the secular Manosphere and Black Pill influencers like Andrew Tate and instead embrace biblical masculinity, which is rooted in strength, virtue, and a commitment to faith.
He also underscores the significance of being a strong Catholic as a foundation for overcoming personal struggles and living a life of purpose and integrity. Come on. The man can deadlift 800 lbs—listen up!
In this episode, we hit:
1- How Pantile morphed from chubby underachiever to successful fitness entrepreneur and Catholic leader
2- His embracing the Catholic Faith of his childhood
3- How marriage transforms men
4- The being difference between a guy and a man
5- How men inadvertently helped the feminist movement grow
6- The manifold benefits of quitting alcohol
7- Why Jesus was not a “nice guy” but a real man to be imitated and challenged by
