    The Truth Behind Conspiracy Theories: Why They Matter More Than Ever | Michael Shermer (Archived Episode)

    What utility do your beliefs have in your everyday life? From the way you decide on political issues to the way you tune out dissenting views, and decide against conversations with certain people every choice is backed by some belief in what you consider to be right. Michael Shermer, who I dubbed, the King Skeptic, joins me and discusses why free speech matters most when people don't want to hear it, and the power behind social signaling that helps shed light on some of the breakdowns being seen on a global scale. Michael’s ability to think through strong opposing arguments searching for truth and charitable interpretation and tolerance for others is foundational.  Order Michael Shermer’s book, Giving The Devil His Due: https://amzn.to/2TWVvfq  [Original air date: 6-24-21].

    What Women Really Want: Sexual Fantasies, Seduction, and Relationships | Sadia Khan PT 2

    In today's episode of Impact Theory, host Tom Bilyeu delves deep into the intricate world of modern relationships, societal expectations, and personal growth with guest Sadia Khan. Together, they explore the complexities of attraction and success, shedding light on how physical allure and ambition shape romantic dynamics. Sadia shares her preferences for driven, accomplished men, linking laziness to missed opportunities, while Tom reflects on his transformative journey motivated by his commitment to his wife, Lisa. Khan's perspective on pay disparities and societal norms, particularly in places like Dubai versus the UK, provides a thought-provoking angle on cultural and economic biases. The conversation takes a candid turn as they discuss the motivational power of admiration, the impact of materialism on relationships, and the unrealistic expectations fueled by social media. This episode also navigates the often contentious waters of sexual dynamics, examining the role of mutual attraction, the evolving landscape of hypergamy, and the pitfalls of transactional relationships. Both speakers emphasize the importance of self-improvement, setting boundaries, and finding partners who respect and value genuine connections over superficial traits. SHOWNOTES Intimacy vs. delusion in age-gap relationships. Avoid pornography; it impacts erectile dysfunction negatively. Submit to someone who sees and supports you. Emotional safety, lifelong desire, shared investment. Men confuse desire for intimacy with sex. Money devalues, causing higher prices and inequality. Women perceive each other as threats, not men. Grateful but cautious due to potential offense. Truth isn't offended by reality; delusion is.
