What a 10,000-mile trip taught actor Andrew McCarthy about friendship

What a 10,000-mile trip taught actor Andrew McCarthy about friendship

Published 1 week, 1 day ago
Description

Actor and author Andrew McCarthy set out to reconnect with old friends. What followed was a 10,000-mile road trip and a deeper look at something many men struggle to talk about: loneliness. Along the way, McCarthy met men across the country, asking a simple question — are you lonely? Their answers reveal how friendships fade over time, why many men avoid vulnerability and what gets lost when connection disappears. USA TODAY Books Reporter Clare Mulroy speaks with McCarthy about what he learned on the road, how his own friendships changed and why showing up might be the simplest — and hardest — way to rebuild them.
