In this episode of The Comprehensive Man, Jason Wilson examines the Michigan vs. Western Michigan finish, Western Michigan head coach Lance Taylor’s response, and why sometimes you can win the argument, the promotion, the money, or the moment—and still lose something far more valuable.

Men aren’t rejecting emotional openness, they’re rejecting a word that was never designed for them.
