The Will Spencer Podcast ANTHONY ”DREAM” JOHNSON | Defending the Honor of the Manosphere
President Anthony “Dream” Johnson is the Host and Founder of the 21Convention and 21Studios.
Fifteen years ago at age 18 he started a meetup group, that became a conference, then a convention, then three conventions—some around the world—and now a summit.
Along the way he had the idea of filming the men who spoke at his events and releasing their talks free to the world. With that decision he surfaced the work of men that had given their lives to exploring vital aspects of masculinity.
He calls what he's built a watering hole. I think it's more like a fountain.
And in exchange for the gifts he’s given masculinity, femininity, and families, Anthony's taken something for himself: a tongue-in-cheek expression and reliable test of whether or not someone has a sense of humor, the title "President of the Manosphere."
I've always loved it. I think it suits him and his brash, outspoken style.
In our conversation we discussed,
- The difference between drama and conflict following the debacle with YouTubers Fresh & Fit
- Masculine honor individually and collectively
- How easy it is to lose sight of the history that men in the Manosphere have together
- Feminism, and the three genders that women see
- Anthony's achievements with 21
- And finally, a discussion of the philosophy of Objectivism
It's my hope in listening you'll get a perspective on the Manosphere, on leadership, and on what it truly takes for a man to build and defend something of enduring value.
