Co-Host John Mitchell (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/mitchell) 'At 50 I wanted to be married. I saw that was more important than making big money.' That's a quote from my guest co-host, John Mitchell. What's particularly significant about it is we're talking about a guy here who increased his income by twenty-five fold. So when he tells you finding the right woman was important to him, that's how serious he was. And yes...in his estimation he increased his success with women every bit as much as he increased his personal wealth. And no...he doesn't credit the latter with the former. Anyway, considering how David DeAngelo once built an empire out of merely doubling your dating, this is a man you should definitely listen to. Interestingly enough, John says it's all actually scientific. To be more specific, the most profound thing John has ever learned is what's directly responsible for it, and he spills the whole secret for you. What is the biggest problem about modern-day self-help that makes it counter-productive for many? While we're at it, what is the SECOND biggest problem? What five areas of success does John divide life into? How can you 25x your relationship with the woman in your life if she's not putting in the same desire or effort? Doesn't it take two to tango here? Overall, this is a solid episode with lofty goals accompanied by practical steps. Want more of this kind of success with women for yourself? Start with a 25-minute call with me, which you can schedule at https://mountaintoppodcast.com

Co-Host Ken Bechtel (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/yes) My guest Ken Bechtel has given a lot of thought to being true to oneself, or as he calls it, 'following your yes'. Essentially, the conversation on such a topic revolves around doing what we're told vs. thinking, feeling and intuiting for ourselves. Sometimes that's even trickier than it sounds. For example, what if someone else's 'yes' really sounds like it SHOULD be OUR yes also, but it really shouldn't be? So then, what if your yes isn't everyone else's yes? And what if everyone else's yes doesn't seem like yours? How do our heart, head and gut instinct work together properly to make the right 'yes' decisions at the right time? How do different personality types find their 'yes' in different ways? And how does following your 'yes' reconcile with finding purpose and meaning over the longer-term? What if following your 'yes' creates significant hardship in your life, or causes a rift in your family or your social circle? Are certain personality types better at all of this than others? What do many men fail to say yes to that they should? And what are too many men saying yes to that they shouldn't?

Co-Host Emily McKay (https://www.deservewhatyouwant.com) Who knows why this topic hadn't been covered yet around here? My edumckayted guess is it probably had something to do with repressed memories. Yes, Emily and I both are survivors of first marriages affected by profound illness. And yes...we both strongly agree you would be better off avoiding psychotic people in general, especially the sexy female ones. But when you get right down to it, that's only one kind of woman you should definitely run away from. So why is it, then, that too many of us as men end up with the wrong woman? Is it that we ignore red flags? Is it failure to even recognize red flags at all? Or does low self-esteem compel us to settle, which is at least better than being lonely? Is it about being 'clouded by beauty vision'? For sure, some people--men OR women--are manipulated or even threatened by black-hearted partners into sticking around. Or what if it's something else entirely? Well, here at X & Y Communications we believe in deserving what you want. That means rolling up the sleeves and doing what it takes to get the RIGHT woman into your life. Well, after this ironically funny and entertaining episode, we pledge you'll be much better equipped to pick up on warning signs, make better decisions and most of all...ultimately weed out crazy, selfish, mean, addicted, needy and/or fundamentally incompatible women.

Nov 18, 2022

Co-Host April Davis (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/april) Bringing up the topic of what women are looking for tends to trigger heavy-duty cynicism in men. After all, we've all met our fair share of golddiggers, and most of us have been thoroughly confused by women's signals our whole lives...especially the sexual ones. Well, my guest today is April Davis, president of the LUMASearch matchmaking firm in Minneapolis, MN. As a professional matchmaker, she spends her days immersed in helping women find exactly the kind of man they want. Naturally, women want some of the very things you suspect they do--and tune in as April mirrors some of my favorite soapbox points on the subjects without any hints from me. However, April's female perspective, balanced and practical such that it is, means you can expect some refreshing (and surprising) takes from her on where women's heads are nowadays. And rest assured, you don't have to lose your wallet or your dignity to thrill a woman. Quite the opposite, in fact. So what if women are looking for something we find upsetting or distasteful? Purely transactional 'arrangements' come to mind. Is that actually okay as long as they both are looking for the same things? And along those lines, are all women looking for 'happily ever after' with Prince Charming anyway? When women say they want a man with a sense of humor, what do they mean? What are high-achieving women in particular looking for? Is it true some women really are looking for 'a woman with a penis'? And what's up with more older women looking for younger men?

Co-Host Avrum Weiss (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/avrum) We don't talk about it. Many of us probably don't even admit it, at least not in public. But the vast majority of us as men are afraid of women...in at least one way, shape or form. We're afraid to approach them and talk to them. We're afraid of 'rejection'. We're afraid they'll cry foul and accuse us of doing something we didn't do. Or we're afraid we'll disappoint them, falling short of being a 'hero' of sorts. Maybe we're afraid of 'failing to deploy' when the chips are down, inside OR outside the bedroom. And you can be darn skippy sure plenty of us fear what will happen to us if ever dragged into divorce court. These fears are exacerbated in part because we as men are told we're not supposed to be afraid of anything, but it's all made even worse by the simple fact that we're ESPECIALLY not supposed to be afraid of women. But here's the truly crazy part. Have you ever stopped to consider that for the most part, women have NEVER imposed fear upon us to begin with? They've never WANTED us to be afraid of them. In fact, most women don't even comprehend how--or why--we're scared of them to begin with. If that's true (and it is), then there's only one logical conclusion to draw: our fear of women is SELF-IMPOSED. My guest, Dr. Avrum Weiss is a psychologist specializing in this area of thought. Wait until you hear his unique and extremely smart angle on how all the dynamics of this work. To say it's completely above and beyond anything you've ever read in men's dating advice is an understatement. Get in on the new Un-Settled program at https://mountaintoppodcast.com/unsettled

Co-Host Roger Williams (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/roger) Ever since the movie called The Bucket List came out in 2007, plenty of people have put together their own version of it. Not everyone, however. Plenty of people are apparently content to do the 'suburban sleepwalk', waking up to do what they did yesterday, and what they'll also do tomorrow, ad infinitum. Well, my guest Roger Williams had a wakeup call in late 2020 when he suffered a heart attack. Suddenly, it was obviously a mistake to assume we can wait until retirement to do everything fun or adventurous that we've ever dreamed of doing. These days, he's not only passionate about crossing off items from his own bucket list, he's all about encouraging you to build a bucket list of your own and do the same. He even hosts a show called The Crossing It Off Podcast. So then, what are the kind of items that are perfect to add to our own bucket lists? What would be a BAD reason to add a particular item to it? What are the kinds of things most men completely forget to add to their lists, but which surely SHOULD be added? And why is it that great experiences tend to be the lowest priority when it comes to setting our personal budgets? Meanwhile, what is it about those amazing experiences that just might make them a better investment than anything else? And what is it about the way men and women are wired differently that makes it nothing short of mission-critical for us as men to build that bucket list? Come for the inspiration, stay for the stories about barbecue, ukuleles and pro wrestling. And YES...the first step to getting out of your rut and start doing what you really want is to get your hands on the new Un-Settled program: https://mountaintoppodcast.com/unsettled

Co-Host Jim Wolfe (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/wolfe) A lot of men get 'cold feet' even thinking about a long-term monogamous relationship. It sounds so, well...final to to them. I mean, what if you really do feel buried when you're married? I mean, does the saying have to be true, 'Life's a bitch, then you marry one'? Well, my returning guest and fellow relationship coach Jim Wolfe has some solid ideas on what to do before you even meet a woman to make sure you find yourself with one you're psyched to keep for the long-haul. And after you meet her, how can your masculine leadership have real, tangible effects on how attracted you stay to her over time? Why do people marry when they don't even like each other, let alone love each other? Even if you do love each other and are best friends, how can you proactively guard against resentment creeping into the relationship? What are important ways to stay interesting to each other even after the 'honeymoon period' of raging hormonal lust wears off? Wait a minute...does that wild hormonal lust really ever have to turn to rust at all? Obviously, gauging a woman's interest level in you up front is an important indicator of future success, but how can you actually raise her interest level...and keep it high? It should go without saying that we shouldn't elope to Vegas a week after meeting a woman, but how long does courtship really have to drag on in order to figure out you're right for each other? And if after two years of dating you're really not feeling it so much, then what?

Co-Host Frank Miniter (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/frank) Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. Weak men create hard times. And so the cycle goes. Where we are at this precise moment in history is open to debate, but one thing is for sure: both my returning guest Frank Miniter from America's 1st Freedom and I are all for being a stronger man rather than a weaker one, regardless. A major part of that is actively embracing masculinity rather than passively sitting on the sidelines. One of the first (and best) ways to affirm that mindset is to actively embrace personal freedom rather than surrendering it. Are you an individual, or are you part of a collective? According to Frank, you're the latter, he cannot see why any woman would take you seriously. And indeed, the same men who lapse into a societal 'coma of comfort' tend to be the same ones who get nowhere in their careers, drown in porn, fail to attract women, and then blame everyone else for their frustrations...including the women themselves. But here's the thing. Over the past few years in particular, plenty of us have felt our freedoms get eroded, and that seems perfectly okay to many. Political dogma feels like it has become the new religion for many, and it's a judgmental one with little forgiveness for 'heretics'. The idea of getting one's news from multiple sources even seems quaint in the current zeitgeist. As a result, too many people feel as if they can no longer speak their mind...or defend themselves...or even THINK for ourselves. What happened there? What's the masculine response? And what's at stake when it comes to women, attraction and even being the head of our household?

Co-Host Jonathon Aslay (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/aslay) My guest is fellow dating coach Jonathon Aslay, who conveniently enough for the topic at hand lives in Beverly Hills, CA. He's a good guy, and a smart one too, but he and I disagree on whether or not Hollywood is any good at portraying male/female relationships. That much is evident right from the get-go, and you'll be able to see why right away...and draw your own conclusions. What is the clear pattern to which guys in movies get women and which don't? Why does the wrong guy sometimes get the girl anyway? How come we as men never seem to prefer watching the movies with the best examples of how we could improve with women? Why is it that Hollywood demands post-modern definitions of masculinity, femininity and human relationships from its constituents in real life, yet still freely portrays the primal realities on-screen? What are the differences in how male/female relationships were depicted in the past compared to nowadays? Did John Hughes get it right? Has online dating and social media completely screwed up how meaningful relationships are portrayed on film? I mean, are primal attraction and seduction downright quaint to modern audiences? Is the OnlyFans phenomenon directly influenced by Hollywood? What are 'Manic Pixie Dream Girls' and why do I love 'em? And by the way, shouldn't we all get out from behind our screens and go meet women for real?

Co-Host Marc Mawhinney (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/marc) Not so long ago my guest Marc Mawhinney was handed such a massive setback that it made front page news in his city, unreasonably--and falsely--painting him as the bad guy. But nowadays, he has emerged from setback to be one of the foremost experts in his field. This episode is all about turning hateful adversity into a growth opportunity, and Marc is the right man for the job. First off, let's just throw it on the table...how can it be that super high-profile politicians and media pundits can absorb such an overwhelming amount of downright hate, and still wake up in the morning excited to share their opinions with the world? What sets them apart? Is that necessarily even a good thing? Next, discover why being the freakin' man in charge brings its own set of responsibilities. And even if you're not so much as a 'Z-list' public figure, you'll hear what happens when the media gets a hold of your story, and what to do about it. How do you 'get ahead' of negative public portrayal of you and/or your interests? Next, you'll hear what to do if groupthink mentality kicks in and you're really getting hammered. How do you turn bad press lemons into lemonade...or would that be 'haterade'? When should you actually stop and pay attention to those who criticize you? And when should you absolutely not let it affect you in the least? There's a clear difference, and you'll find out what it is. Is the way to win over women who are angry at men to agree with them? I think you know the answer...but what SHOULD you do instead? If you have NOBODY in your life who's a 'hater', what hidden meaning might that have? Should you apologize publicly when you piss people off? What life lesson is a true 'silver lining' when dealing with social adversity? And could it actually be true that you could USE a good, solid dose of adversity on the path to being a better man? For free downloads and more, visit the all-new https://mountaintoppodcast.com

Co-Host Dr. Gary Salyer (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/loveguide) Lots of people have 'trust issues' when it comes to dating and relationships. Where does that come from? And how much skepticism, jealousy and or doubt are acceptable, if not even healthy? Dr. Gary Salyer returns to the show to talk about all of this and more, especially at it all relates to trusting again after divorce. So, how DO we trust again after there has been a breach? And what is the definition of trust to begin with, anyway? What does 'infidelity' and 'cheating' even mean? And is it necessarily the same for every couple? When does a trust issue morph into something completely unreasonable, even to the point of being abusive? What is THE big key to developing the ability to trust again? (Hint: You have TOTAL control over it.) Every couple who has ever come to Gary for counseling has a common roadblock...find out what it is and eliminate it in your life before it's ever an issue. Could it be that one of the most celebrated personal traits in this culture nowadays is actually the same one that's KILLING our relationships with women? I guarantee this episode will empower you to find the right woman and get into a good solid relationship with her...trust me!

Sep 23, 2022

This is part two of our retrospective of the first nine 'lost episodes' of the erstwhile Chick Whisperer Podcast from 2007. Very soon after you click 'play' on this one, you'll figure out that the last episode was only a warmup. My co-host Steve 'The Dean' Williams an I go off on why it's harder to talk to women at bars and clubs than anywhere else, and how that just may be our own fault as men. Then, I reveal a weird secret to how I knew Emily was the right woman. Later, we cover how you too can know when you've found 'The One', and why if you've done so you'll never get bored with her. Next, wait until you get a load of our take on MILFs and 'cougars'. Also, find out why sex is like sales...as long as your salesmanship is coming from the right place. Following that is an interesting take on what women thought of the show, even at a time when most men's dating advice was 'underground'. How long should you wait to contact a woman after getting her number? What is the deal with so-called 'serial dating', and why is it a problem? If you look at other women, does that make you shallow...or even a cheater? And good grief, wait until you hear the bad advice some guy gave in an old-school forum about how to score chicks on the dancefloor. Overall, as you listen to these old clips you're sure to notice plenty of consistency over the past 15 years. BUT, you'll recognize plenty of evolution, also. If you LOVE these excerpts, you're sure to enjoy the first nine episodes in full. Get your hands on them at https://mountaintoppodcast.com/lostepisodes

In honor of the first 15 years of the show, this is Part One of a two episode retrospective on the early days of what was then called The Chick Whisperer Podcast. The first 9 episodes were co-hosted with Steve 'The Dean' Williams. To this day, that is why I refer to my guests as co-hosts and the format is typically more discussion oriented than purely an interview. I've compiled my favorite clips from all of them. These two 'retrospective' episodes feature those clips, along with a bit of modern-day elaboration. This time, enjoy our 2007 take on the difference between younger guys and seasoned vets when it comes to success with women. Next, hear about the time I told my wife Emily early on that she might make a nice 'friend'. Then, I offer proof we've always been about respecting women even when the PUA movement seemed proud of taking advantage of them, long before the #metoo movement. Personal power as a masculine man has also always been a constant theme. Listen in as I call out the 'stripper's mentality' in answer to a listener question about putting a woman on a pedestal, only to have her exert sexual power in completely out-of-bounds ways. Following that, Steve 'The Dean' and I roast some particularly crazy, obviously unproven dating advice. Then, we cover how exactly to tell if that fun, happy-go-lucky chick is really attracted to you...when she seems to adore everyone and give them attention. The idea of masculinity and femininity being inherent building blocks of sexual attraction goes WAY back. You'll hear one of the first mentions of that concept EVER around here. And finally, let's hear it for "natural game". Why does a naturally masculine man need tips, tricks or pickup lines? As it turns out, your guess is as good as ours.

Co-Host Lia Holmgren (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/lia) My returning guest is sex coach extraordinaire Lia Holmgren, and the topic is maximizing the thrill, pleasure and overall experience of flings, one-night stands and 'friends with benefits' relationships. Why do so many people have so many hangups about sex purely for enjoyment, yet those same people often fantasize about it? Well, according to Lia, a whole lot of us would be happier if we simply expressed our sexual fantasies more freely. After all, more people are having 'recreational sex' than we might think. Even the Olympic villages every two years are stoked to the hilt with condoms...for good reason. So then, what are the six areas to focus on to make sure your sexually athletic endeavors are top-notch in quality and intensity? How can we make sporting sex even hotter and naughtier than it sounds...and how can we make it last? How do we make her want more, more, more? What do wolves have to teach us about sex? What if there are more than two players on the 'team'? Why is it easier than ever to have sex for the sport of it? Should sex without strings ever feel 'relationshippy'? And stand by for all the personal and situational factors you should consider when preparing for a good hot, horny round of going at it. After all, far too many guys 'foul out' of the game in these areas. Finally, get Lia's take on what to say to people who claim casual sex can never be satisfying. Even though there might seem to be a lot to get right here, it's all for the love of the sport. Take control of your dating life today...it all starts with a 25-minute call with me personally.

Co-Host Emily McKay (https://www.deservewhatyouwant.com) Let's face it, when single moms and single dads get together, it's pure naive idealism that would cause us to expect we're creating our own Brady Bunch. The reality of blended families is much different. Emily and I have been there ourselves, and have first-hand experience. We know full well it can seem more like being put through a Vita-Mix than a mere blender. But does it have to be such an ordeal? Well, there's no doubt that bringing everyone involved under one roof is a challenge, but yes...there is plenty of 20/20 foresight that can minimize both the drama and the pain. And what if you're already all together and facing profound issues as a blended family? No worries, Emily and I have real, actionable answers for you as well. So, why is blending a family uniquely different when it comes to baseline compatibility measures? What should we think about BEFORE dating a single mom? How does selfishness creep in to the picture...often with devastating results? What if you straight-up don't like each other's kids? What's the first thing that ought to happen as soon as you get engaged to a woman with kids? And what is the best way to give each of your children a measure of ownership over their own destiny as step-kids, without conceding parental control? This is a big topic for sure, but prepared to be amazed by how much ground gets covered in one episode. Nevertheless, if this show raised more questions, please write me at scot@mountaintoppodcast.com and/or visit https://mountaintoppodcast.com

Co-Host Nick Gray (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/gray) My guest Nick Gray is the originator of The Cocktail Party Method to grow your social circle and influence. Throwing parties in his twenties led to his success and how you can do it too. Discover why holding even small parties at your home (and yes, it needs to be at YOUR place) is the perfect way to grow your social circle and your influence on many different levels. Next, Nick gets into the specifics on how to throw parties. How much should you spend, what should you buy, what should you NOT buy, and what other ways should you prepare?

Co-Host Marcus Oakey (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/marcus) Is it true that 'life goes on, long after the thrill of living is gone'? Men have a weird relationship with fun, don't we? Few of us would openly deny we like to have fun, but when it comes to CREATING fun with women we worry about coming off as unattractive...either by being immature or even feminine. My returning guest Marcus Oakey from the UK is a charisma coach. Charisma is a nebulous and even complex term to define for many people. But at its core, it's all about driving emotion. As it turns out, having fun and BEING fun are both closely tied to charismatic personality types. But being boring, gunfighter serious all the time or flat-out cranky is never attractive. We instinctively know this, so why can't we as men lighten up? I present as evidence how many first date conversations turn dark and negative...with our full consent. That leads to the familiar theme of taking oneself too seriously. Stay tuned for new and unique ways we do that...all fun killers. I mean, there really is something to people following our emotional lead as men, not just our logical, objective direction. That leads to the all-important question: is playfulness really about getting into our so-called 'feminine side'? How can we be attracting women if we're acting like one? Meanwhile, how can accessing your 'dark side' actually contribute to having more fun in life? Let's face it gentlemen, stress kills...not only fun, but eventually you as well. It's time to let go and lighten up, to the delight of women everywhere. For what it's worth, all the fun starts at https://mountaintoppodcast.com

Co-Host Sarrah Rose (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/sarrah) Many men think women don't like sex, yet they also believe it when they're told women will leave them because of BAD sex. It seems the best defense against confronting this confusion is to simply rock your woman's world in the bedroom. My friend and queen of Tantric Activation, Sarrah Rose, returns...as proof positive women can have a luridly explicit conversation about sex without batting an eyelash. First, to establish 'street cred', Sarrah acknowledges the kind of sex that keeps MEN around. Stay tuned for the ensuing secrets to a great blowjob by a woman. But seriously, how often do women end relationships because of bad sex? As it turns out, there's often a BIG difference between how men and women define that. Ironically, most men think they're good at sex, while according to women they're not. Find out why porn serves as a completely inadequate lesson on how to have great sex...and it's not for any of the reasons you've heard before. Meanwhile, discover the secrets to doe-eyed, sexually addicted women in your life. It will be as if a veil has been lifted...no more self-protective 'good girl' pretenses. And yes, Sarrah offers plenty of first-hand evidence for her claims. Stay tuned for how it's amazing to watch women lose regard for how sexy they are and what a prize they are. I mean, why will women withstand even bad relationship patterns to keep the good sex going (not unlike men, to be honest)? Fair warning: Sarrah and I disagree more than the usual amount on several ideas in this episode. See what you think. Get on my calendar to talk about YOUR success with women.

Co-Host Dr. Joshua Estrin (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/estrin) As political dogma fast becomes new paradigm for religion in this culture, the more power the masses are willing to cede to the legal and judicial systems. But 'true faith' in government comes at what cost to our freedom...especially in our sex lives? Well, this episode is basically about what can only be called 'sexual libertarianism'. The bigger picture, however, is all about losing fear-based mindsets and thinking for oneself. And just to throw a wrench in the works, my guest Dr. Josh Estrin is an openly gay man. Although that's unusual (but not unprecedented) for this show, prepare to be amazed by how little the nature of our respective sex lives really matters relative to the importance of keeping government OUT. The resulting conversation will go down as exactly the kind of honest AND positive one gay and straight people need to have more of. Sure, we talk about why abortion isn't necessarily a religious argument, how 'choice' should apply to fathers, why marriage has a different definition to the government, and the battle for parental rights. But could it be true that when people just want to be right while vilifying 'the other side', everybody loses...except those in power? You'll even hear Josh talk about how there's divisive political opinion even within the LGBTQIA community that's kept under wraps from the public eye. Leaving nothing on the table makes for fascinating conversation. But it's the sheer revelation of common sense and the refreshingly civil discourse that will make you stay to the very end. Isn't it time to take charge of your own success with women? Talk to me for free and let's put a plan of action together. https://mountaintoppodcast.com

Co-Host Cole Rodgers (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/cole) So many of us as men complain about our WAGs, and guess what? Our women end up remaining exactly like what they keep complaining about. What if it's possible WE have something to do with that? My guest Cole Rodgers the the author of School Of Man: The Man's Guide To Living, Loving and Legacy, and he's all about men and women being better together than apart. After all, isn't that how it should be? We kick the show off by acknowledging two keys to happiness in this life. Without them, the rest of this conversation is all for naught. Next, what are the exact ways post-modernity has allegedly made our lives 'better', but at the devastating cost of really feeling ALIVE...especially in relationships with the women we love? The first step to really maximizing partnership with a great woman should be obvious to us as men, but unfortunately it often isn't. Cole reveals it. What is the undeniable link between today's 'convenience culture' and realization of the importance of freedom? What is the hardest hurdle for men to clear when it comes to really growing as a couple? How can we defeat the post-modern 'me first' mentality and truly experience the depth of maximizing our relationship with the woman in our life? How does quality time spent together directly contribute to mutual betterment? Indeed, what is the TRUE secret of wanting to be a better man for her, and her wanting to be a better woman for you? And why is it virtually impossible to model manhood for your children effectively until you get this right?

Co-Host Kim Ades (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/frameofmind) What is 'resilience', anyway? That word has been coming up more than ever before lately. Well, it's a bit of a specialty for Toronto's own Kim Ades, head of Frame of Mind Coaching and my guest for this episode. What have the last two pandemic years taught us about being resilient? Why do certain people thrive even after immense personal trauma or tragedy, while others wilt even in the face of relatively lightweight challenges? What is the difference between these victims versus the victors? What's up with the new apparent push in society to embrace victimhood, if not flat-out celebrate it? Is that really helping anyone? Are people who troll political Twitter looking for fights MORE resilient than the rest of us...or is that an illusion? Next, stay tuned for the unfortunate buzzword that when used almost always indicates profound lack of resilience. Do 'first world problems' rob us of our resilience? What keeps talented and driven individuals from reaching their goals? What is 'emotional resilience', and how we can leverage it? Next, find out why Kim does NOT recommend finding a work/life balance. Then, discover the shocking reasons why Kim isn’t a fan of empathy. It's masterclass time again.

Co-Host Laurie Singer (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/laurie) My guest Laurie Singer is a board-certified therapist who specializes in applied behavioral analysis. She literally wrote the book on obsessions and fetishes, which makes her the perfect guest for this long-overdue topic. According to Laurie, you have to learn to LIVE with your fetishes and obsessions. But wait a minute...doesn't that depend on whether they're socially acceptable and not harmful to others? So what IS a fetish, anyway? How is it different from an obsession? And is it necessarily an abnormality that needs to be fixed? Is it fair to ask men who prefer a certain kind of woman if they're fetishizing them? For example, is men having an 'Asian fetish' really a thing? Is it weird to think women's feet are sexy? What are some other feminine physical features we might think strange to find sexy, yet many more men do than we think? Not to be outdone, Laurie shares some truly unique stories about real-life cases she's encountered. And hey, what about our friends the 'spankies'? Stay tuned for the 'acid test' as to whether your sexual proclivities are truly too weird or not. Finally, as a bonus, discover the true depth to why it's important to talk to your sons about women, dating and sex. I'm not asking for you to be obsessed with the show's website, I'm simply asking you to visit.

Co-Host Dr. Joan Rosenberg (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/joan) We as men play all sorts of mental tricks on ourselves when our confidence level is down.

Confidence and resiliency, she has found, has everything to do with your ability to handle unpleasant emotions. First off, discover how the 'Rosenberg Reset' can get you focused and immediately more confident in just 90 seconds. Next, Dr. Joan reveals how we distract or disconnect from feelings rather than allowing ourselves to feel them...resulting in a hit to our confidence every time. What are the 8 'confidence keys'? And what's up with the human tendency to 'layer feelings' as either an emotional distraction or a protection mechanism? How do we trick ourselves into 'transmuting' our feelings when we're not feeling all that confident? Why is it so many of us as men not only don't take criticism well, we don't take compliments well either? How can we tell when it's actually time to take criticism to heart rather than categorically passing it off as a personal attack? Why do men and women both seem to dislike getting feedback from the opposite gender...at all? Finally, listen in as Dr. Joan describes how anxiety and addictions basically cheap 'workarounds' for lack of confidence.

Co-Host Dr. Judson Brandeis (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/judson) One thing we've never done in over 300 episodes is get a medical doctor's take on sexual attractiveness to women. So it was on that premise that we opened this episode, but it ended up being much more than that. My guest Dr. Judson Brandeis proceeded to reveal a myriad of ways we as men can reach peak sexual performance, literally becoming better sexual athletes. After a brief discussion of how to have more sexual stamina downstairs, we turned our attention to how your diet and alcohol consumption affect matters. If we shouldn't eat carbs, and we shouldn't load up on cholesterol...what's left to eat? Next, what are the primal elements of sexual attraction relative to our overall health? Why are modern-day men so bad at keeping our testosterone levels up? What's up with us as men being so complacent about exactly those elements of personal health that make us sexually attractive? How does the media assault on "toxic masculinity" trick us psychologically into being less attractive physically? What tangible results can we expect when we get our health in order? How exactly are we more attractive to women? What are the two most underrated areas of focus when it comes to peak physical health and sexual performance? Lest we overlook that all health isn't necessarily physical, how do we as men neglect our mental health...to the detriment of our attractiveness to women? And how about this for a question...what can we do as men to influence and encourage the woman in our life to maintain her sexual attractiveness and sexual athleticism?

Co-Host Zan Perrion (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/zan) Post-modern culture is pitting men and women against each other more and more as time passes. So who is left to make the case for the glory of men and women having the hots for each other? It seems like a weird question, but my friend Zan Perrion and I are left to stand in the gap. Zan loves women more than any man I've ever met (even myself), and proves it every day of his life. Listen in as he rekindles the case for masculinity and femininity as divinely-inspired intelligent design. Why are so many men afraid to express their natural attraction to women nowadays, especially given that heterosexual women WANT heterosexual men? What should our response be to this trend of aggressive fighting strategy toward women who hate men, or even men who hate women? Are you some sort of simp for having positive regard for women? Where did that fear even come from? What if our biggest complaints about interacting with women are really nothing more than weak excuses? What significant mental shift would transform most men's views and behaviors toward being a sexual man? Next, get Zan's thoughts on sexual equality versus 'sameness'. What is it about eye contact and non-verbal communication that so powerfully draws men and women to each other? Why is it so many men get hung up over romance? What is it women really want and need when they crave a man who's romantic? The June Masterclass For Men is called, 'How To Make Women Love You'.
