Mamas' Boys are joined by veteran DC newsman and author Jake Tapper, who digs into how masculinity and power play out in Washington today, shares how he presents himself as a Jewish man in a world that's gotten tough on both, and takes a deep dive into how he became the man he is as a teen at Camp Ramah!
