The interview is about 4:13 Strong, a non-profit organization in Nashville, Tennessee that aims to help marginalized communities by providing programs designed specifically for men. The organization's focus is on building better men to build a better Nashville, and most of their connections revolve around something in the construction industry. Eric Evans and Tim Queener explained that they aim to help young men find alternatives and opportunities. They work with young men who have been in jail or have had trouble with the law and believe that everyone needs a blueprint to achieve success. The program requires completion of a savings of $1500, purchase of a cash car, and four months of continuous work in order to graduate from the program. 4:13 Strong helps these young men understand that they can have a different normal than what they had before and really change their lives.
