Ladies, please listen to this podcast episode in its entirety. It might be a bit raw and rough, but it comes from a place of love - especially as marriage and birthrates continue to plummet. The outlandish expectations, social media brainwashing, and resentment towards men (money over love) is having a real effect on the the effort, or lack thereof, men give when it comes to dating.

----------

Can you be moral and still be part of “hook up” culture?  I'd argue that yes that is very possible.  In some ways, hookup culture practices values such as integrity, honesty, and in some ways respect. Though it can easily be argued that the respect part goes out the window as it seems people are being treated as sex objects, it can also serve as the ultimate sign of respect for another person's time, energy, and emotions.

You may find irony in this episode but I do mention how you're more than free to place your phone down and listen while you live.  The "meh" feeling I allude to is that sense of feeling unmotivated and a bit lost - we all go through it.  The two themes converge on the feeling of us collectively needing to wake up or continue to sleep awake.

As always, feel free to contact me at the below so I can learn who you are.  I'd like to start sending a thank you to one random listener per episode as a thank you.

....you're more than just a metric.

Have you ever ran into a profile that says to the effect of, "just seeing what's out there" or have that included in your profile?  The collective ambiguity is a result of "trust injuries" that have real-life implications on the rest of society as we become increasingly indecisive.  Also, I will go into the controversy surrounding Dave Chappelle and his recent stand-up special The Closer.  We need to start reflecting the real values that made us neighborly Americans, instead of our addiction to divide and discord.

----------

Frances Haugen, a former Facebook product manager, told a Senate hearing that the social network’s products “harm children, stoke division and weaken our democracy.” Facebook pushed back, saying on Twitter that Haugen “did not work on child safety.”  This comes in the wake of Facebook and Instagram going offline for hours this week, leaving its 3 billion users in the dark.  Will dating apps require regulation in the future as the lack of social skills and true connection becomes rampant?

----------

The Aba & Preach versus Fresh & Fit beef reminds me how anyone with an audio-video setup can become a YouTube content creator overnight.  However, being a content creator does not automatically make you an authority compared to men who have life experiences that reflect the "alpha male" model many young men strive for.  In reality, self-accountability and integrity, instead of cheap entertainment, will be the pillars that will make male dating advice aka the manosphere legitimate.  I'm afraid that much of the content will be generalized as empty and all fluff if immediate changes are not made.  Remember that kids, regardless of age, make messes while adults clean them up.

----------

This episode is my chance to practice what I preach - vulnerability.  It will also break down the details that led to my most recent breakup and how you can bounce back from your own.  Trust me though there are plenty of funny moments in this episode including the pivotal Epsom Salt moment that led to the domino effect.  Feel free to reach out below if this episode resonated with you and/or you'd like to share your own experience with breakup recovery.

This is definitely one of those episodes where I intend to let your mind take a bit of a journey in defining what truly are the "roles" of men and women when it comes to dating.  What makes us different but what are principles that converge to produce a lasting connection and/or relationship.  What if I used extremely generalized examples such as telling men to be much more vulnerable and soft when they came home.  Or explained to women how to take advantage of hypergamy to attract the top 20% of men.  Please contact me (via Instagram) and let me know your thoughts, plus it's a great way for me to learn more about my listeners.

I've hit the big 4-0 and figure I'd dig a bit deeper into who I am.  This is a very "from the gut" authentic hot takes void of preparation and an outline.  I'll go into how my first dating company transitioned into the Dating Doc and a hilarious, at least for me, story on networking in the suburbs of San Antonio.  The episode ends with reflecting on how I hope to best serve myself as well as those around me - to include you the listener.
