What has happened to men in America? Once upon a time, men in their twenties looked forward to settling down and having children. Today, most young men seem infected by a widespread Peter Pan syndrome. Unwilling to give up the freedom to sleep late, play video games, dress like a slob, and play the field, today’s men wallow in an extended adolescence, ostensibly unaware that they’re setting themselves up for a depressing, lonely existence.

In this hilarious ode to male adulthood, Jim Geraghty and Cam Edwards—two happily married, 40-year-old men—have a simple message for their younger peers: Grow up!

Jim Geraghty is National Review's senior political correspondent, the writer of the daily newsletter the Morning Jolt, the Conservative Political Action Conference's Journalist of the Year for 2015, and a frequent talking head on television. He lives with his family in Fairfax County, Virginia.

Cam Edwards is the host of NRA News' Cam & Company and the 40 Acres & a Fool podcast, as well as a columnist for America's 1st Freedom. He lives with his family in Farmville, Virginia.
