    The Man's Playbook on Women: Dating, Sex, and a Marriage That Lasts | Michael Kanner, LPC, CPCS

    Michael Kanner has trained under the biggest names in marriage research. Co-founder and supervising counselor at Anchored Mind in Roswell, GA - counseling, nutrition, and fitness under one roof. Husband. Father of three girls. He knows what men need to hear, and he does not soften it. Consider this the start of your playbook. Stronger connections with the woman across the table. Something deeper with the one already next to you. A lot more heat in the bedroom. Starting point is you. DATING Unless the long-term plan is thumb calluses and 1am doom-scrolling on the apps, tune in. Michael names the one habit killing your odds. Not your car. Not your job. Not your jawline. He also lays out the four seasons rule that could save some of you an attorney's retainer. Stop waiting to be chosen. Start doing the choosing. SEX The wedding ends. The honeymoon ends. The bedroom quietly becomes the place two people charge their phones. Your buddies are lying about their numbers. The internet is selling you a supplement. Michael has the case files. Why it goes quiet. What that silence means. Whether scheduling it helps or ruins it. And what happens to the man who reaches over, gets a no, and stops reaching. MARRIAGE He told us about a man in his fifties. Wife, young kids, full house. That man rated his own loneliness a 1 out of 10. He is not rare. He might be you. Michael covers what quietly kills a marriage, the biggest warning sign there is, whether one survives betrayal, and the ten minutes near the end that every married man needs. BONUS The best tip either of us has ever heard on married sex is in here. Not spoiling it. Worth the two hours by itself. Two men talking about the topics men deal with - and one of them has the case files. Listen this week and your wife will notice the difference by Friday. Run it in the truck. Pull one thing out of it and put it to work. Send it to a buddy who needs it. Get yourself whole. Become the one who chooses. When you find her, keep choosing her. Start here. — GUEST: Michael Kanner, LPC, CPCS - Anchored Mind, Roswell, GA HOST: Jeff Ridgway, The PMP Show & purposMANproject CHAPTERS: 00:00 The red flag Michael can spot in one session 04:00 The one thing that quietly kills a marriage (and it's not cheating) 06:00 Married, kids, full house - and lonely as a 1 out of 10 11:00 The lie you've been told about married sex 13:30 Have the sex BEFORE the argument 17:00 Michael's confession about who he used to be 26:00 Is your wife still attracted to you? 33:00 Dating apps, vulnerability, and 2 million swipes for one date 39:00 Why women go for the top 20% (or the older guy) 44:00 Stop trying to get chosen.

    Arrested Across the Street From the Place That Saved His Life | Chris Glinski

    He was arrested in the parking lot across the street from No Longer Bound. Today he runs the therapy team. This is that story. In this episode of the PMP Show, Jeff Ridgway sits down with Chris Glinski - Clinical Director and therapist at No Longer Bound, one of the most respected long-term men's recovery programs in the country. Chris was a homeless heroin addict at 20, mandated to treatment by a court, and told a judge he couldn't stop on his own. That moment of honesty, in a jail cell, changed everything. This isn't an addiction awareness episode. It's a conversation about what's underneath the using - the shame, the identity, the emotions men were never taught to name - and what it actually takes to get free and stay free. What we cover: Why addiction is not a willpower problem - and what it actually isThe two emotions men are allowed to feel (and why that's the root of everything)What shame does to men that the substance never couldWhy you can be completely sober and still completely boundThe case for long-term treatment in a world that wants a 28-day fixWhat recovery looks like when life gets hard even after you're cleanA full-circle moment: standing in front of the DA and judge who sentenced him - and saying thank youThe playbook: for the man in it, the man watching someone he loves, and the man in early recovery holding onIf you're carrying something you haven't told anyone - this one's for you. Share it with a man who needs it. He probably won't find it on his own.

    The Men's Health Conversation Most Men Never Have | Dr. Steven Winiarski

    Most men don't talk about their health - not with their doctor, not with their friends, and honestly, not even with themselves. This conversation changes that. In this episode of the PMP Show, I sit down with Dr. Steven Winiarski, a men's health physician based in Atlanta who has spent his career sitting across from men at every stage of this journey - the ones who came in early, and the ones who waited too long. We talk about what's actually happening inside a man's body right now, and why the signals that matter most are almost always the ones being ignored. This isn't about optimization culture. It's about the gap between how long a man lives and how well he lives - and the honest information most men never get.What we cover: - Why testosterone decline starts earlier than most men think - The cardiovascular disease quietly building for 20+ years before any symptoms - What chronic stress is actually doing to your hormones - What's the PESA study and what it changes about heart health - TRT, GLP-1s, peptides, NAD+, cold plunge - rated honestly, 1 to 10 - ED as a diagnostic window, not a bedroom problem - Why "normal" testosterone on paper doesn't mean optimal in life - The mental health cost men pay in silence - and what it does to the body - A decade-by-decade playbook: what to do at 20, 30, 40, 50+ Share this with a man who needs it - because he probably won't find it on his own.
