âMen arenât emotional.â
âMen are more logical than their female counterparts.â
âMen donât cry.âThese are all things youâve heard whether theyâve been directed at you or not. But the reality paints a different story. Men are emotional. But thatâs not to say that we ought to let ourselves be led by our emotions alone.
Dr. Ethan Kross understands this well as a man who researches how we, as humans, both feel and react to those feelings. Today, we talk about how to deal with intrusive thoughts, how to address the dark thoughts we often experience, what it actually means to âcontrolâ your emotions, how to become more emotionally fit, and how you can regulate your emotions â even the ânegativeâ ones â so they donât regulate you.

With the brand-new year, I figured it would be a good idea to talk with an expert on the topic of health and fitness. For almost 10 years, Iâve suggested that if a man is just getting on (or back on) the path of self-development, the gym is the best place to start. There are a lot of reason for this but I think my guest, Brandon Mancine would agree.
Today, Brandon and I talk about three types of fitness goals every man should implement (all three have merit), why a broken past does not define you, weight-lifting benchmarks all men should hit (or be working towards), the importance of intelligent lifting â especially as we get older, getting over âego lifting,â and why now is the perfect time to get strong.

We are without a shortage of sex scandals from Jeffrey Epstein to P. Diddy and, now implicated Jay-Z. But sex scandals from the highest echelons of entertainment, social elites, and political juggernauts are nothing new. In fact, Alexander Hamilton was once outed for having an affair with a married woman and Thomas Jefferson was proven to have been sleeping with his slave.
Unfortunately, the trend continues with seemingly increasing high profile cases against these villains and their sexual improprieties. Today, Iâm joined by investigative journalist, Nick Bryant to talk about his decades-long work against child sex-trafficking. Today, Nick and I talk about the similarities between Epstein and Diddy, why and how these blackmailing strategies turn into political weapons and assets, why these pedophiles get caught when they do, and what a man can do to protect his loved ones and serve a greater calling to destroy these rats.
