Ep 146102: What Doesn't Kill Us | Scott Carney
In general, I think it would be safe to assume that we, as a people have become weak. The average man or woman seems more likely to face obesity, autoimmune disease, and an overall reduction in happiness and fulfillment. As we continue to seek a life of ease and comfort, it is becoming painfully obvious that our quest for perpetual comfort might be the very thing that will kill us. My guest today, New York Times Bestselling author, Scott Carney, share with us how to introduce environmental stressors, how to build up more resilience, and the strategies he uses for making himself a stronger human being. Scott Carney Men, I am honored to introduce you to my guest today, Scott Carney. I came across Scott's work while connecting with another podcast Alumni, Scott Keneally. He recently wrote a book titled, What Doesn't Kill Us, and, as I read the premise of the book which is how Scott used Wim Hof's methods to improve his level of health, I knew he was someone I needed to have on the show. What I like most about Scott's work is that he is an investigative journalist who set out to expose Wim Hof as a fraud. He talks about that and how, rather than exposing Wim Hof, he ended up reaping the benefits of his work to lose weight, and build up resiliency using environmental training. In the meantime, he climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro in shorts and completed the Tough Guy, one of the world's most difficult - and coldest - obstacle course races in the world. He's here to talk about how he did it. Please leave us a review at http://www.orderofman.com/itunes Shownotes: http://www.orderofman.com/101 Website: http://www.orderofman.com

Ep 144101: Get Your Mind Right | Tom Bilyeu
EIt all starts with the mind. We've all heard the adage – it's nothing new. But, the question remains, how do we do it. Most of us have constructed mental walls, barriers, and frames of reference that keep us thinking and behaving the way we always have. Today my guest, Tom Bilyeu co-founder or Quest Nutrition and founder of Impact Theory, shares with why it's so difficult to change your mindset, how and why we should learn to cultivate our identity, how to crystalize our goals, and how to get our mindset primed for success. Tom Bilyeu My guest today is a man who probably doesn't need a lot of introduction with most of you but I'm going to anyways because I think it's important you know a little bit about the position of experience and success he comes from. His name is Tom Bilyeu and for those who may not know it, he co-founded Quest Nutrition which was, at one point, one of the fastest growing companies in the world. Since then he's gone on to start multiple other business, one of which is Impact Theory which is how I stumbled across his work. He's interviewed some incredible guests: Jason Silva, Tim Ferris, Shaun White, and Michael Strahan, among others. But, what really intrigued me about Tom's work is his fascination with the mind and how getting the mind and body to work together is the key to success. We've talked a lot about mindset on the show but Tom is here to crystalize it a bit further for us and help us take the first steps towards getting this mindset piece right.

Ep 142100: 100 Deadly Survival Skills | Clint Emerson
EUnfortunately, in society today, your ability to survive has become more important than it ever has. Whether you're dealing with an active-shooter, a natural disaster, or a medical emergency, your likelihood of having to think on your feet will likely become a reality. And, as my guest, Navy SEAL Clint Emerson says, "the wrong place at the wrong time has now become any place at any time." Today he shares some common survival threats, the importance of self-rescue and self-reliance, the four D's of home defense, and how to develop your own threat personal protocol on this, our 100th interview episode. Clint Emerson Gentlemen, I am honored to be introducing you to my guest today, Navy SEAL and New York Times Bestselling author, Clint Emerson. This marks the second time Clint will be on our show and, since our first conversation was such a hit, I thought I'd invite Clint back on the show to talk about his latest book, 100 Deadly Survival Skills: Survival Edition. As a said before, Clint served as a Navy SEAL for twenty years including an attachment to SEAL Team Six and the NSA so you know he's qualified to talk about some of the information we get into today. Clint also runs his company, Escape the Wolf, which is geared towards helping businesses deal with crisis. In fact, he and his team also ran some security training and consulting for President Trump's inauguration. Guys, you're really going to enjoy what Clint has to share and walk away with some very actionable strategies you can use should you find yourself in a crisis situation.

Ep 141FFN 042: Join or Die
EIf you can't find a way to band and join with other men, you are going to die – maybe not literally but figuratively. I know there's been times in my life where I've felt dead inside because I had no clear direction for my life and no one to tell me what needed to be said to get my ass pointed in the right direction. http://www.orderofman.com/FFN042 Please leave us a rating and review at http://www.orderofman.com/itunes
Ep 140099: Building a Business on the Side | Josh Bauerle
Entrepreneurship is such a hot topic right now. In fact, it's a buzz word that gets tossed around quite carelessly but it's something every man should, at least, consider. Not only does entrepreneurship provide opportunities for additional income, but there are tons of other benefits as well. Today, Josh Bauerle - the CPA on fire - joins me to talk about what those benefits are, the common pitfalls and mistakes young entrepreneurs make, where anyone considering launching a business should start, and why every man should consider building a business on the side. Josh Bauerle Gentlemen, I am honored to be introducing you to my friend and guest today, Mr. Josh Bauerle, the CPA on Fire. I'll be honest with you, I was a little hesitant to bring a CPA on the show because they're notorious for being a little dry to say the least. But you're going to hear in a minute that Josh is anything but dry and has a passion for helping entrepreneurs start, grow, and maximize their business through some very simple yet effective strategies. In fact, some of the strategies he shares in this interview allowed him to start his own busines in 2012 and team up with some podcasting powerhouses like John Lee Dumas with Entrepreneur on Fire. You're going to get a ton from this interview because we don't just talk theory and tax code, we talk about real tips, tactics, and tricks you can use to reap all the benefits of starting your own business.

Ep 138098: Trial by Fire | John Spera
Stress is something all of us, as men, deal with on a daily basis. And, unless you can find a way to manage the stress effectively, you just won't be able to show up in the way others are relying on you to do. Firefighter, John Spera with Fit to Fight Fire, joins me to talk about it takes to handle yourself in stressful situations, how to get better at adapting, something he calls belief filtering, and how to build up emotional, mental, and physical resiliency. John Spera I am so honored to by interview my friend and someone I've followed for a long time, firefighter John Spera. As I said, he's someone I've been following for some time now and I have been blown away by his work ethic and his ability to lead others especially under stressful situations. I know we have a lot of men here who listen to this show as firefighters, military members, and other first responders. I've got to say that I respect you and anyone who steps into the line of fire, literally in the case of my guest today. He is a firefighter and paramedic in Aurora, CO and his team was tasked with responding to the Aurora theater shooting in 2012. He's going to talk with us a little bit about that experience and the drive he has to be the best he can be - which you'll hear in his voice when he says, "The level of our training will make the difference between life and death for others."

Ep 137FFN 040: Masculine Sovereignty, Part I
Over the past couple days, I've had the opportunity to meet with some men that I really admire for how they show up in this world and the level of success they've been able to reach in their perspective field. I had the chance to meet Cameron Hanes, an Under Armor athlete and avid bow hunter, Tony Sentmanat with Real World Tactical, Neal Curry with Ready Gunner, UFC Fighter, Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone. These guys are all masters of their craft and I can tell you the one thing that separates them from the rest of the pack – it's the one thing that separates all successful men from the rest. That is the ability to take action. The ability to execute. The ability and desire even to get their hands dirty. And, I want to come straight out and ask you, are you willing to execute? Are you willing to get your hands dirty? Are you willing to step into the ring? http://www.orderofman.com/FFN040 Please leave us a rating and review at http://www.orderofman.com/itunes
Ep 136097: A Man of Style | Antonio Centeno
Style, although it is so often overlooked, really is a critical component of helping you become a better man. More often that not, the way you look and the way you show up says a lot to other people about who you are. My guest today, Antonio Centeno with Real Men, Real Style, shares with us how important style is, the benefits of improving the way you look, what core components you should consider when improving your wardrobe, and how you can become a man of style. Antonio Centeno I initially came across Antonio's work with Real Men, Real Style as I was considering launching Order of Man in early 2015. And since then, I've been able to build a relationship and friendship with him. This man knows a ton about style and fashion – and not just clothing – but the psychology of increasing your style, body language, manners and mannerisms, and just about anything else that will help you increase your overall presence in the world. He is the founder of Real Men, Real Style, like I previously mentioned, and has over 1,000,000 subscribers on his YouTube channel. We talk about it a little in the show but he's got over 700 vidoes there and literally thousands of articles, videos, and courses that will help you understand how clothing fits into the conversation of masculinity. He is also the co-founder of Men's StyleCon along with Aaron Marino with I Am Alpha M. We do talk a little about that during the show but it is definitely something you should consider attending if you really want to become a man of style.

Ep 134096: Leadership: Vision, Influence, & Impact | David Burkus
As you men know by now, leadership lies at the core of what it means to be a man. We've all had great leaders. We've all had horrible leaders. My guest today, David Burkus, talks with us about what it means to be a leader, how to align your vision with others, how to be more influential, and how to make an impact in the lives of those who matter most. David Burkus David Burkus is a someone I came across as I was looking for successful men to come on the show and, you're going to hear in the podcast today, that I connected with someone who is incredibly qualified to speak with us on the subject of leadership. He's an author. He's a podcaster. And, he's also an associate professor of management at Oral Roberts University. He wrote a book I really enjoyed titled, Under New Management, where he challenges the traditional vision of business management and proves they're outdated and just don't work. He gets into that a little in the show today. He's also a speaker. He's worked Fortune 500 companies and the Naval Academy and contributes to Business Review and Inc. Today he's here to talk with us about management, leadership, and how to cast your vision and make an impact.

Ep 133FFN 038: Regroup, Recalibrate, and Re-Engage
EWe've got a pretty thriving Facebook Community and one of the underlying themes I see quite a bit there is setbacks, struggles, trials, adversity, and obstacles. And, more importantly, questions about how to overcome these "expected unexpecteds" in life. This is going to be tough because, obviously, I cannot go through every scenario in which you find yourself on a daily basis in the next eight minutes but, what I can do, is give you a three-part formula that I've used in my time here on this spinning rock that has helped me overcome some major hurdles – hurdles that many of you have experiences or are in the middle of right now. I've been fat, I've been broke, I've been depressed, I've had failing businesses, I almost lost my marriage at one point and, I can tell you that this simple strategy, although it's not easy, can help you overcome just about any challenge you may find yourself in. But, before I share the formula with you, I need you to understand something: you are responsible for what you do with your life. No one else – you! Yes, you can have friends. Yes, you can have mentors. Yes, you can have a support group or a team. But, at the end of the day and regardless of their effort and help and resources, it is up to you to build the life you want. And that means that, at times, you are going to have to face some things alone. You're going to have to stare down whatever trial you have to and figure out a way to go around, over, under, and through that things that might have you pinned down. No one can or will do it for you. Now, that you know it is up to you, let's talk about this. My formula for overcoming any setback is simply REGROUP, RECALIBRATE, AND RE-ENGAGE. http://www.orderofman.com/FFN038 Please leave us a rating and review at http://www.orderofman.com/itunes
Ep 132095: How to Be a Better Connector | John Corcoran
Somewhere, at some point, men began to believe that we are meant to go at it alone. The reality paints a different picture and illustrates how critical it is for each of us to learn to connect with others. Whether you're tyring to connect with people professionally or personally, my guest, John Corcoran, shares with us why meeting face-to-face is so critical, how to reach the people you admire most, the differences between networking professionally and personally, how to get out of your own head, and how you can become a better connector. John Corcoran Gentlemen, I am honored to introduce you to my guest today, John Corcoran. John is someone I first learned about as I started Order of Man and, since then, I've had the opportunity to connect with him a bit more. When I initially reached out to John, he was unavailable for an interview but, he did introduce me to Michael Port with Heroic Public Speaking and Jordan Harbinger with the Art of Charm (both of whom I had interviews with) and I can tell you that this is a man who practices what he preaches when it comes to being a better connecter. In fact, through his skills and abilities as a networker and connecter, John landed a job as a writer in the Clinton Whitehouse and, of course, has gone on to do so much more. He is the founder of the Smart Business Revolution where he teaches business owners and entrepreneurs some of the same stratgies we're going to be talking about today and how each of us can and should become better connectors.

Ep 131FFN 037: Engaging High-Value Targets
Focusing on high-value targets in your life is critical to your success this year. The reality is most of us don't. Instead, we choose to focus on low-value targets – tactics, activities, projects, experiences, etc. that produce little to no results towards our most important objectives. A high-value target on the other hand is a tactic, an exercise, an activity, and engagement that you can complete that will produce and yield the highest return. This is exactly what we want – high returns on the way we spend our time, attention, focus, energy, and resources on. I've said it before but the most successful men on the planet know how to use the 24 hours each of us have in any given day to its maximum potential. And, that is what I want to address today. Now, obviously, the term, high-value target is a term used in the military to describe a person or asset that is critical for the completion of a mission. I'm using it in much the same way. A high-value target, when it comes to you spending your time most effectively, is a tactic you can use to achieve your ultimate objective. So, I want to talk with you about identifying these high-value targets, engaging them, eliminating distractions, and accomplishing big things in your life. http://www.orderofman.com/FFN037 Please leave us a rating and review at http://www.orderofman.com/itunes
Ep 130094: Tim Kennedy | Becoming the Sheepdog
There are three types of people in this world: the wolf, the sheep, and the sheepdog. The wolf is violent, the sheep is passive, and the sheepdog is there to protect one from the other. My guest today, Army Green Beret and UFC ranked middleweight fighter, Tim Kennedy, talks with us about how to overcome fear, how to get up and learn from losses, how to recognize strengths and weaknesses, and how to become the sheepdog. TIM KENNEDY Tim Kennedy is arguably one of the baddest men on the planet. He is a Army Green Beret and a UFC Middleweight MMA fighter and, he's one of only a few who fight professionally and serve in the armed forces simultaneously. He's been fighting professionaly for 16 years and serving as a Ranger qualified, Green Beret, Special Forces Sniper for 14 and has been awarded the Bronze Star for valor under fire. Tim also competed on the Ultimate Soldier Challenge as a Green Beret and was featured as a "Ranger" on the Spike TV series Deadliest Warrior. Tim has also competed in the grueling 3 day Modern Army Combatives tournament, and was one of only three men to be undefeated, as well as three time champion. He is one of the only three service members to be awarded a black belt in Modern Army Combatives. In addition to all that he stars on History Channel's hit show, Hunting Hitler, founded the Sheepdog Survival Fund, and trains law enforment officers, first responders, and civilians how to become sheepdogs through his company, Sheepdog Response.

Ep 129FFN 036: Stay the Course
Everywhere you turn this time of year, you'll see someone telling you how to set New Year's Resolutions. And, while I think there is validity to setting up resolutions correctly, there just doesn't seem to be a lot of new information. Everyone knows how to set goals. We've all heard of SMART goals (specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and time-sensitive – or some variation of that) but, is setting goals really the problem? Do you really have a hard time dreaming? Do you really have a hard time envisioning the future? Do you really have a hard time thinking about what you would like to do over the next twelve months? I would argue that most don't have a problem with this. In fact, I don't think most people have a problem even getting started. Most people can easily get fired up about something for a week or two or even a month. So, rather than tell you how to set New Year's Resolutions, I'm going to teach you how to KEEP THEM! http://www.orderofman.com/FFN036 Please leave us a rating and review at http://www.orderofman.com/itunes

Ep 127FFN 035: Invictus, The Captain of My Soul
Today, we talk about Invictus. Most of society believes, or lives life, as if someone or something else is in control. Whether you call it fate or destiny or something else entirely, it's wrong. The problem with believing, or at least adhering to, the notion that you don't have control over your life is that you give away any power you have in doing something about it. Today we talk about 5 excuses you'll need to eliminate from your life and the mindset required to do it. http://www.ordeofman.com/FFN035 Please leave us a rating and review at http://www.orderofman.com/itunes
Ep 126092: 50 Ironmans in 50 States in 50 Days | James Lawrence
50 Ironmans in 50 states in 50 days: This is what my guest, James "Iron Cowboy" set out to do. Everyone said it was impossible. Nobody thought it could be done. He disagreed. In 2015, James set out for the impossible and 50 days later completed what he set out to do in the face of overwhemling odds, physical damage, mental exhaustion, and obstacle after obstacle to overcome. Today he shares his journey. JAMES "IRON COWBOY" LAWRENCE James Lawrence is an endurance athlete and Ironman triathlete. He holds two Guinness World Records in 70.3 and 140.6 triathlon racing. In 2012, James shattered the World Record by over 10 races, winning 2 titles and placing 2nd in five others. After 2012, James "Iron Cowboy" Lawrence wanted to test the true limits of his mind and body and wanted people around the world to join him in an effort to raise money for childhood obesity and empower them to take control of their own lives. So, he set out for the unthinkable: 50 Full Distance Courses, 50 Consecutive days, through all 50 States. He'd cover 140.6 miles each and every day, for 50 consecutive days. A 2.4 mile swim, followed by a 112 mile bike ride and then finishing up by covering 26.2 more miles, which is the marathon. In 2015, he completed what everyone else said was impossible.

Ep 125FFN 034: A Primer on Stoicism
Stocism is the philisophy of focusing on perception, action, and will. Most people have a misconception of what Stoicism actually is - that it ends with thought and contemplation. Stoicism however, is the ability to focus on what you can control and turning that into the action neccesary to propel your life and the lives of those you have an obligation and responsibility for. In this episode, we talk about the three keys to Stoicism and additional resources you'll need to delve into on your journey to become a Stoic Man. http://www.ordeofman.com/FFN034 Please leave us a rating and review at http://www.orderofman.com/itunes
Ep 124091: Why Men Fight | Jonathan Gottschall
EWhy do men like to fight and why do we like to watch? These are questions I've asked myself before and ones that we attempt to answer with my guest today Jonathan Gottschall, an English professor with some real-world experience in MMA. Today we talk about the nature of fighting, how fighting has evolved, the role honor plays in combat, and where the desire to make men more civilized comes from.

Ep 120089: A Navy SEALs Lessons in Teamwork with Chris Sajnog
Teamwork is something we hear a lot about but it's not something that we typically delve into too much because we're all expected to know what it means to be a team player. Teamwork is the fastest way to growth and success in just about any endeavor in life and my guest today, retired Navy SEAL Chris Sajnog, is here to tell us how Navy SEALs operate as a team, how to reach others in a constructive manner, how to recognize strengths in others, and how to help your team thrive.

Ep 109FFN 026: The Man in the Arena
"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."
