With the manosphere back in the headlines, we’re republishing our 2024 interview with the authors of Clown World, the book that exposed Andrew Tate’s cult-like grip on young men around the world. Jamie Tahsin and Matt Shea explain how they infiltrated Tate’s inner circle and what they found inside.
Ash and Moya will be back from their well-earned break next week. Get your dilemmas in: ifispeak@novaramedia.com

Only 2/3 through it, but I had to come back to say: The hosts are doing a fantastic job of digging in and analyzing the manosphere as a phenomenon of more than just gender or patriarchy or grifting, but more fundamentally one of capitalism and social fragmentation.
I think the guests are reluctant to play that angle themselves, as two men being interviewed by two women, so I really appreciate the hosts being bold enough (and intellectually curious enough, in the first place) to allow for a reality that’s messy and complicated and doesn’t take the manosphere’s “men vs women” premise for granted.
