Richard V. Reeves has been featured and discussed across multiple podcast episodes for his extensive research and writing concerning the social and economic challenges facing men and boys, as well as broader societal structures. On Modern Wisdom, host Chris Williamson and guest Brad Wilcox discussed Reeves's book Of Boys and Men. Wilcox mentioned writing a piece about the book and debated some of its conclusions, specifically regarding Reeves's arguments on reshaping fatherhood outside of traditional marriage, while Williamson recommended the book as a highly pertinent and accessible read. Williamson also brought up the American Institute for Boys and Men in a separate conversation with Dr. John Delony. Ezra Klein dedicated segments of The Ezra Klein Show to interviewing Reeves and analyzing the arguments presented in Of Boys and Men. Klein highlighted the book's examination of why men have fallen behind in contemporary society, noting its practical proposals such as encouraging more male representation in nursing and teaching professions. Furthermore, on the podcast People I (Mostly) Admire, the host engaged with Reeves by discussing his earlier publication, Dream Hoarders, focusing particularly on how the upper middle class has increasingly separated itself from the rest of society.

    Discussed
    “I just actually wrote a piece on Richard Reeves, you know, has written this great book actually of of boys and men here. And the one I think big problem I had with the book is he kind of argues at the end that we've got to figure out a new way to do fatherhood apart from marriage.”

    “A great example would be the book you wrote before, which is called Dream Hoarders, which is about how the upper middle class is moving away from the rest of society.”
