Show notes

On this episode of The Masking Tapes, host Carolina Hidalgo-McCabe sits down with her younger cousin Joey for a conversation on becoming a man. Joey is in what he calls a time of transition. He's back home after two years of college, recently left his fraternity, and is starting fresh at community college. It's what he considers a "ball up top" moment, a reset of the play. Together, they unpack what it's like to be a young man right now, the purpose of fraternities, how to use the game of catch to process emotions, and 'manosphere' influencers like Andrew Tate. -------Joey Caporizzo , originally from Baltimore, MD, is a 20-year-old student at Montgomery Community College. He loves basketball, writing, his friends and family, and is a big Tom Brady fan. Carolina Hidalgo-McCabe, your host, has local, national, and global organizing and programming experience. Her expertise lies in communications, community mobilization, and masculinity studies.
