                <itunes:summary>In this third episode of Bastion, I sit down with Albert Mutabazi to unpack the core principle of accountability. We talk about how isolation leaves men exposed and weak, why you need peers to walk with, mentors and authority to keep you grounded, and a younger brother to pour into. This is a call for men to reject loneliness and step into brotherhood, guidance, and responsibility.
