Co-Host Emily McKay (https://www.deservewhatyouwant.com) It seems to everyone paying attention that beautiful women enjoy a massive 'halo effect'. It's like they're treated like celebrities--or even royalty--everywhere they go. But what else is going on there? What's it REALLY like to be a sexy, attractive woman out there in the dating world? Well, in my decidedly un-biased opinion, Emily is exactly the right female human being to offer first-hand perspective on all of this. First, off, we talk about how there are two kinds of women...those who rely on their looks, and those who see the bigger picture. What's life like for each? Do women look for reasons to 'reject' men? And what's it like to have to put almost everyone in the JBF Zone? What do truly attractive women really think when a man compliments them? (Hint: it might not be what you were told by the PUA community) Could it really be true that the hotter a woman is, the LESS she gets asked out (even if she's 'hit on' more)? Do women really enjoy their ability to 'get laid' by almost anyone, anytime...or is that only how men think? What is the BIGGEST problem beautiful women face when dating? What's the real-world social difference between childhood beauty queens and late bloomers? Are there women who don't realize they're beautiful? Why do some women burn through a cycle of commitment phobic men, while others get proposed to early and often? What about women who weaponize their looks...how does that work? And what's the deal with 'self-made sexy women'? What does that even mean? So sure, attractive women may have the power in dating...but do they WANT it? What happens when they meet a chooser instead of another chaser? Get all the free stuff you can handle, and talk to me for FREE when you visit https://mountaintoppodcast.com

Co-Host Nick Sparks (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/sparks) Nick Sparks is one of the OGs in the men's dating space, so he and I have known each other and respected each other's work for, wow...fifteen years now. So when Nick started a series of Facebook posts singing the praises of online dating and apps in THIS day and age, it caught my attention...and raised my eyebrows. Nevertheless, fully realizing Nick typically knows what he's talking about, I invited him onto the show for a friendly debate on the current state of meeting women online. Right off the bat, I'm happy to report this conversation does not disappoint. What are YOU guys reporting to me, compared to the reports NICK is getting? And since Nick is single right now, what is his personal experience like these days? What are the pros and cons of meeting women online compared to meeting them IRL? How many of them are recent developments, and how many are basically the same as they've ever been? What changes have the developers of dating sites and apps made that may or may not benefit themselves more than their users? Discover which app both Nick and I agree is unquestionably the best one right now...and the one we both say to steer clear of. Now that said, Nick and I differ considerably when it comes to our respective opinions on Bumble. So is Bumble's policy of women messaging first a problem or an opportunity? What do those women on Bumble really mean when they ask, 'What are you looking for?' In the end, you'll find out how much Nick and I actually agree on vs. 'agreeing to disagree', but one fact is certain...if you want to meet women online, this episode will be an instant help to you. Let's face it, people are being social again and it's time for YOU to meet more women. Talk to me for free when you get on my schedule at https://mountaintoppodcast.com

Co-Host Walid El Jebbari (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/walid) A lot of men fantasize about getting women from Eastern Europe, Colombia, The Philippines, etc. Sometimes it's because they're not having any luck finding a woman in their own country, but other times it's because they suppose those women are sexier or more feminine than the ones in their neck of the woods. Well, like me, my guest Walid El Jebbari has traveled all over the world and met all kinds of women. What's more, he has actually dated plenty of them. Wait until you hear his thoughts on what's the same and what's different about women across various geographies, especially as it pertains to both socio-political factors and the masculine/feminine dance. What is the big surprise that awaits most men when they get into a relationship with an Eastern European woman? Are Latinas really 'hotter' than other women? And which women are Walid's favorite in the entire world? (HINT: The answer might surprise you.) And here's a particularly poignant question...what is it about us as men that changes in different parts of the world? Why are men from some countries more attractive to women? Prepare yourself for an entertaining, spirited and downright interesting listening experience...and feel just a bit more 'worldly' for having partaken of it. 2023 is well underway.

Co-Host Derek Loudermilk (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/derek) My long time friend and world adventure expert Derek Loudermilk returns, this time to discuss another passion of his...supernatural phenomena. More specifically, we're talking about how to potentially incorporate supernatural experiences into being a better man and more attractive with women. Here's the thing, though. At heart, Derek is a scientist...so everything he is curious about and tries is rooted in scientific method. To what extent does Derek believe time travel is possible...and how has he experienced it? What religious experiences are actually backed by scientific reality? How does Derek give new meaning to 'tree hugging'? What are 'heart fields', and what are they constantly doing for us whether we realize it or not? How do concepts we can't empirically measure affect our mindset and our success with women constantly? What about our dream world...is there any actual reality behind that? What about telekinesis, telepathy and 'remote viewing'? And last, how can the Hawaiian tradition of Ho'oponopono actually help you influence the world to be a better, more balanced place...right from the comfort of your own imagination? The bottom line is we as humans tend to be super arrogant and dismissive of anything we don't understand, especially if we haven't experienced it yet. A little open-mindedness goes a long way.

Co-Host Dr. Thomas Jordan (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/jordan) My guest is the author of the bestselling book Learn To Love: Guide To Healing Your Disappointing Love Life. In it, Tom Jordan defines your 'psychological love life' and how it often leaves us straight-up disappointed. We can be disappointed in the partners we choose to begin with, leading us to cycle people in and out of our lives. Or, we can be disappointed in the context of the same relationship over and over, inevitably leading us to feel like we've settled. What if you've made a horrible choice when it comes to the woman you're with? What if you regret your long-term relationship? Do people really keep perpetuating bad relationship choices unconsciously? What changes can be expected from finally becoming conscious? What tragic phenomenon often happens the first time or two a person with a distorted picture of relationships actually meets someone who is potentially healthy for them? And along those same lines, what of the pandemic proportions to which people nowadays tend to enter into relationships solely based on what they plan to get out of it...with apparent complete disregard for there being another person in the relationship as well? What if you've found someone who's dysfunctional in the same way you are? Can that work out? Is what looks messed up to the outside world really a true indicator that your relationship really IS messed up? And of course, the 'elephant in the room'... How do you avoid marrying the wrong woman in the first place, especially if you feel like you're settling and should deserve better? 2023 is here, and your love life disappointments should be in the past.

Co-Host Joe Buchoff (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/photos) Let's face it, a lot of men have become disillusioned about online dating these days. It seems as if the apps and dating sites have cornered the market on keeping everybody single, lonely and addicted to their product. But here's the thing...it is true--and always has been--that 5 percent of the men online are getting all the women. Nope, they're not necessarily the tall, rich, good looking ones. They're the ones who GET IT...and do the best with what they've got. Joe Buchoff is an online dating photographer out of Austin, TX who specializes in turning men from zeroes to heroes on dating apps. You'll find he has some interesting, if slightly controversial ideas on the subject. In fact, he goes against some of the most basic advice you've heard about online dating pics. Along the way we discuss whether or not women are looking for an excuse to swipe left, whether or not men should post 'selfies', and offer our take on the 'beautiful test' I found on Quora. Should men over 30 wear their baseball caps backward? Should you pose next to your prized bottle of Pappy Van Winkle? Can a 70-year-old man dress like a 'f*ckboi'? And the biggest question of all...why do douchebags get women? As you've probably guessed, this episode is full of interesting twists and turns, so even if you've long since given up on Tinder and Match.com, there's something fun and interesting for you in there anyway. Forget 'New Year's resolutions'. You should have gotten the woman of your dreams into your life YEARS ago, so there's no time to wait...regardless of what the calendar says. Give me a call and let's put a plan in place to get this part of your life handled. Sign up at https://mountaintoppodcast.com

Co-Host Jeremy Gardner (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/mademan) My guest Jeremy Gardner has gone from a rough upbringing to being a high-profile 'crypto bro', which led to being a silicon-valley venture capitalist. But nowadays he has turned his attention almost completely to men's skin care. No doubt, I hear men grumble all the time about how women get all the advantages in the looks department--cosmetics, makeup, etc. And I mean, anyone who has ever seen the 'before and after' pics of female celebs with and without makeup knows exactly how that can play out. So then, what Jeremy advocates is leveling the playing field for us as men...starting with making our skin look its absolute best. He even goes so far as to say this could be THE major factor that will attract women who might otherwise not even notice you. In fact, he strongly advocates TELLING women you practice skin care as soon as you meet them to turn them on. As odd as that may sound, there is truth in the simple fact that women appreciate a man who does the best with what he has, and this episode proceeds to break that concept down perhaps better than we ever have on this show. Listen in as Jeremy and I talk about the different ways we as men shortchange ourselves when it comes to looking our best, and how to use simple appearance hacks to look better, feel better AND finally stop disappointing sexy women everywhere. Finish up 2022 and get rolling on making 2023 the best year ever by talking to me on the phone or Zoom. Your first 25 minutes are free. https://mountaintoppodcast.com

Co-Host Joe Cordell (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/cordell)
I felt like I already knew this guy, having heard his radio commercials here in San Antonio for like 12 years now. Maybe you've heard of Joe Cordell also, as his family law firm for men only is in 37 states and the UK now--all supported by radio ads. The real question, however, is why I couldn't have heard of this guy 19 years ago when I needed him!
In this unique episode, Joe talks more candidly than any divorce lawyer I've ever met about YOUR rights as a man, the patterns he sees in couples filing for divorce, why most divorces are likely preventable, and how to make the best decisions for yourself AND your family if confronted with the possibility of divorce yourself. Wait until you hear what Joe has to say about when men vs. women file for divorce. He also has surprising comments regarding the oft-used phrase 'in the best interest of the children'. Equally surprising is who Joe suggests you call FIRST when considering divorce (it's not a lawyer). What's more, Joe has dedicated sites with plentiful blog posts offering actionable, real-world advice to men facing divorce. It's all rock-solid, and he drops some key examples in this show. Whether you're facing a divorce, already divorced, single or in a happy relationship there's something for you in this action-packed show...including secrets to long-lasting relationships and an update to how your rights as a man are doing here in the good ol' US of A. Joe even has powerful words about how to STOP being "Mr. Nice Guy" and do what you've got to do, whenever it has to be done (but especially in a divorce situation).

If so, get on the phone with me using the contact button on this page and let's talk about saving you a WORLD of pain (and even expense) when looking divorce in the eye. https://mountaintoppodcast.com

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?

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.

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.

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.

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?

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!

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.

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
