Your Wingman Rocks Powerpoint (Pitch-A-Friend) - MTP476

Co-Host Melissa Schipke (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/pitchafriend) By now, you know I'm on record with my firm belief that dating sites and apps are dead. About a month and a half ago I ran a Masterclass For Men detailing 40 different ways to use your smartphone and computer to meet women in IRL...NONE of which are dating sites and apps. Well, wouldn't you know it? There's a 41st. My new friend and first time guest Melissa Schipke stumbled upon a strange but fun idea for getting single people together while hanging out at an open mic night with BAD comedians! She told the owner of the venue it would be more entertaining if she and her friend just got up there and pitched their single friends to these guys. A few years later, Pitch-A-Friend is in dozens of cities spanning 22 countries...and growing. So what's the deal? Let's just say it's basically online dating in REVERSE. Instead of putting up a profile and hoping someone likes it, all the single people are ALREADY THERE in the room, and THEN your friend basically "wings" for you with a PowerPoint presentation. Now, I actually did my homework here and went to the most recent event here in San Antonio. At first I planned to be a "fly on the wall", but my waitress turned out to be pretty cute and VERY single...so I pitched her! Tune in for more on how THAT went, as well as all the details about Pitch-A-Friend...including why it's EXACTLY in line with what the "new normal" for meeting women is gonna look like. Obviously, GenZ is eating this stuff up. But wait a minute...what about Pitch-A-Friend in The Villages or Sun City, AZ. Ha! And by the way, there was room for a relevant Dead Milkmen reference in there, too. Nice.

I Will Grant You Every Advantage With Women Except One - SFTS83

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === Let's have some fun today. Years ago, famous copywriter Gary Halbert challenged an entire audience, saying, "You and I are starting hamburger stands. I'll grant you every advantage over me except one, and I'll have a more successful business than yours." Well, since attracting women isn't too far off from marketing in a sense, I'll challenge you the same way. Grant me just ONE advantage over you, and you can have all the rest. Most of the time, I'll still get the girl. The good news, however, is when YOU co-opt that advantage for yourself, it lets YOU get the girl over EVERY other guy out there. https://mountaintoppodcast.com/substack === HELP US SEND THE MESSAGE TO GREAT MEN EVERYWHERE === Snippets From The Summit are all about completely original ideas for success with women that also happen to be extemely effective...and actionable.

Resentment Wreckage: The Silent Assassin of Masculinity - MTP475

Co-Host Frank Kermit (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/franktalks) He's Frank because he has to be. After years and years, I finally have my long-time friend Frank Kermit back on the show. He has always been about straight talk when it comes to women, men, sex, dating and relationships...which is probably why he and I made friends immediately and that friendship has endured. In this long-overdue episode, we talk about the strange rise in bitter, hurt, resentful people--both men and women--and how so many of us got this way. Resentment is the quiet poison that eats men alive. It wrecks your masculine presence, makes you unattractive to women, and slowly destroys your edge in life. Naturally, we kick off the conversation with a searing discourse on self-imposed limiting beliefs, and how the media actually reinforces them. And then, what's with all those long checklists women schlep with them on dates? And on the other hand, why is it that the less success with women a guy has had, the "pickier" he might become? And what's up really going on when we play "Whack-A-Mole" with one excuse after another for not succeeding with women, to the point where we just get angry rather than actually doing something about it? Why is it so true that 'hurt people hurt people'? And what if 'Mr. Nice Guy' really has something pent up under the surface? As it turns out, getting over any resentment that's built up within us--especially toward our family and women--has to come from a place of genuine desire, not to mention raw, masculine courage. Does that mean actually confronting those who have hurt you? That's for you to decide. If you've been into men's dating and relationship stuff for years, you might wonder why you haven't heard from Frank in a few years. Well, as it turns on he was on one hell of a personal journey...losing 260 pounds (!) You'll get the lowdown on that as well.

Women Still Want A Masculine Man - MTP474

Co-Host Cassie Leigh (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/cassie) You asked for this, gentlemen. And fair warning...you're getting what you asked for. In this episode, I welcome Cassie Leigh who's a journalist, author and Instagram chick. And yes, you're about to get a real woman's opinion on what it's like to be single and dating out there nowadays. Just make sure you fasten your seat belts, because it's a wild ride. Some of you are going to love what she has to say, while others of you will probably get super angry over it. Most of us will feel a little bit of both at some point or another in the conversation, and rightly so no matter what. Well, for starters, Cassie tells a dating nightmare story where a guy knew one of her exes and said exactly what it took to blow his chances. What does Cassie have to say about today's disturbing trend toward transactional relationships? Next, we find out (surprise, surprise) that Cassie's a true 'Daddy's girl', which contributed to many of her old-school values about men and masculinity, and women and femininity. Speaking of which, despite so many men complaining that women want to be lazy and not contribute anything to the relationship, Cassie reports men openly announcing they're 'sassy' and want women to do everything for them and pay their own way. What's up with all of that? Next, we move on to discussing how Cassie has to 'man up' because most guys simply don't know how to. And THAT is when the bomb gets dropped...(drum roll)...Cassie has a boyfriend. And no, she's not happy. Why is she still in that relationship? Well...that's where you're just going to have to listen in to get all the gory details of that one. Gentlemen...the bottom line here is you can get an amazing woman who really wants a great relationship if you're willing just to bring SOMETHING to the table. Yes...contrary to what we think women are 'demanding' of us out there, it really has become that simple and easy.

Fantasy Success Vs. Real Results With Women - SFTS81

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === Most men want to find a great girlfriend and live the dream with her. But somehow, in this world of constant media and an overwhelming onslaught of marketing messages, we often let 'shiny objects' distract us. The end result is we end up chasing after dating and relationship goals we actually don't even care about, let alone actually want. In this brief episode, discover the #1 rule to staying focused on the real-world results you actually want in your personal life...and in the process dramatically improve your chances of being the man who naturally attracts both the lifestyle AND the women you really want. https://mountaintoppodcast.com/substack === HELP US SEND THE MESSAGE TO GREAT MEN EVERYWHERE === Snippets From The Summit are all about completely original ideas for success with women that also happen to be extemely effective...and actionable.

Bad Relationship Advice - MTP 471

Co-Host Monica Tanner (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/monica) My first-time guest Monica Tanner is a relationship coach from Boise, Idaho and the author of a book called Bad Marriage Advice. Now, even though that seems like a pretty rough topic that's no fun at all, Monica has a way of making it fun to talk about. That means you can look forward to one of the most entertaining episodes in a while. First off, what's up with all of that 'well meaning' relationship advice we get from friends and especially family members, but which is just really awful, if not downright dangerous? Is 'happy wife, happy life' really a thing? And what about when we as men joke about how the wife is 'the boss'? Should it be an option to say 'divorce is not an option'? It's not like we should just glibly drop the 'd bomb' in a relationship, right? Is a relationship really 'hard work'? What makes your relationship with a woman either less or more difficult? Is there a proper 'time to get married', or is that a trap as well? Should couples compromise? What is the deal with watching movies together...it's always a battle to find a flick both of you want to watch, right? Should you really just go read a book in another room while she watches some chick flick? And what's up with actual recommendations out there to blatantly enter into transactional relationships? What about 'not sweating the small stuff' in a relationship? Is it actually healthy for couples to fight? And finally...stay tuned for the massive toilet paper debate (after all, that's what's really important here). Have you checked out the new Substack at https://mountaintoppodcast.com/substack === HELP US SEND THE MESSAGE TO GREAT MEN EVERYWHERE === The show is now available as a VIDEO version on YouTube.

Clouded By "Beauty Vision" - SFTS82

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === Okay, so first off I'm not about to go off on a rant about how women can't be trusted. Far from it. Instead, this is about human nature in general. There are lots of areas of life where we'll keep allowing ourselves to get lied to rather than facing cognitive dissonance for what it is. Obviously, this can mess things up for us in this life. Nowhere is this phenomenon more dangerous than when it comes to our relationships with women. How does "hot girl privilege" leave us "clouded by beauty vision"? Even if we gain the wisdom and maturity to stop making lame excuses for being lied to, how do we 'trust and verify' with due diligence without descending into total cynicism? https://mountaintoppodcast.com/substack === HELP US SEND THE MESSAGE TO GREAT MEN EVERYWHERE === Snippets From The Summit are all about completely original ideas for success with women that also happen to be extemely effective...and actionable.

Talk Like A Leader - MTP469

Co-Host Dr. Laura Sicola (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/sicola) VIDEO VERSION: https://mountaintoppodcast.com/youtube My returning guest is Dr. Laura Sicola, TEDx speaker and author of Speaking To Influence: Mastering Your Leadership Voice. The last time she was on, we meant to talk about how to master your leadership voice, but instead ended up talking about how your name matters in dating and attraction. So as promised, she's back to cover what we had originally planned. What's the first step to using your voice to get ahead in your career, and indeed in life? Find out about what Laura calls "the linguistic glass ceiling" and how to blast through it. What are the special communication skills that are unique to leaders? How can high IQ guys fall into traps that are uniquely set for them? As it turns out, the way to make people think you're smart and competent is very similar to how to make them think you're a cool guy. Laura explains that in detail, including how the "dance of communication" ties into it. How do we pigeonhole ourselves into poor leadership communication, simply by overlooking the nuanced finesse required in most situations? Better yet, how do we fix that? How do you adjust both the objective and subjective elements of your communications style based on who exactly you're leading, and in what context? How can you earn respect through your communicative leadership rather than demanding it? What's the real relationship between what you say and how you say it? (Hint: It may not be what you've heard in the past.) How can you "match the energy" of the person you're talking to in a way that builds respect and rapport? What are the big mistakes that even major companies make when attempting to communicate to their customer base in a way that creates admiration and goodwill? Get in on the new VIDEO version of the podcast at https://mountaintoppodcast.com/youtube === HELP US SEND THE MESSAGE TO GREAT MEN EVERYWHERE === The show is now available as a VIDEO version on YouTube.

Be Assertive Without Being A Jerk - MTP249

Dr. Marcia Reynolds is someone I should have met years ago. After all, she's one of the OGs in the coaching profession at large, the former president of the very International Coaching Federation itself, and current CEO of the major coaching firm Covisioning. As it turns out, based on her writings, she is the quintessentially perfect guest to address the long-overdue topic of how to be assertive. First of all, what does it even mean to be 'assertive'? Why is it so important in life to be so? Yet at the same time, how come most everybody deeply fears ever having to assert their opinion, let alone their will? Truly, some guys have a hard time being assertive even with the woman in their lives...often wondering silently what she's thinking, yet never actually asking her. Could it be that most of us as men are so afraid of looking like a jerk that we fail to show some chutzpah even when it's absolutely necessary? This is but one of many examples of how lack of assertiveness costs us dearly. We lose out on opportunities to build and strengthen relationships, to gain respect, and even to further our personal influence. What's arguably worse, by not being assertive we're less attractive and less impressive overall, even as we may suppose in the moment we're protecting ourselves from social confrontation or some other form of negative energy. Ultimately, is this all about short-term fear versus forward-thinking courage? All of this and more in this unique and thought provoking episode. Get in on all the free goodies I have in store for you when you visit https://mountaintoppodcast.com === HELP US SEND THE MESSAGE TO GREAT MEN EVERYWHERE === We'll keep the solid, actionable content coming...all for free.

Approach Four Women At Once - SFTS 77

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === We're talking about how to meet women in today's brief episode. That's "women"...plural. Most of us as men have a hard enough time gathering the stones to approach and meet even one woman. But get this...after dozens and dozens of in-field Ten-Plus Live weekends with guys, it has been proven time and time again that it's actually EASIER to meet three, four or even five or six women at a time. Yes, I fully realize this flies in the face of all the PUA advice you've ever read. But not only is it true, I'm going to explain WHY...and better yet, I'll show you HOW.
