Order of Man

Our conversation today is a great follow-up to the conversation we had with Hollywood actor and producer, Kevin Sorbo, last week. We have to fight the issues where they are and, right now, entertainment and sports are at the front of the battleground to capture, and re-define what manliness looks like in the west today. I'm not interested in letting that happen and neither are my guests, Jake Crain, Blain Crain, and David Cone. They are the hosts of Crain & Company where they discuss cultural commentary through the world of sports. Today, we talk about the dangers of censorship in sports and culture, why so many people stand on money when they should be standing on what is right, how sports shapes much of our views on men, masculinity, and society, why we as a culture tend to mistakenly prioritize tolerance and acceptance, how sports is a powerful answer to the fatherlessness epidemic, and how to shift the Overton Window back from where it's trending. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS The dangers of censorship in sports and culture Why so many people stand on money when they should be standing on what is right How sports shapes much of our view on men, masculinity, and society Why we as a culture tend to mistakingly prioritize tolerance and acceptance How sports is a powerful answer to the fatherless epidemic Order of Man Merchandise.

It's no great surprise that many of our cultural institutions are actively rallying against masculinity and the virtues that made this country great. Nowhere is that truer and more accurate than with the Hollywood elites who shape much of the cultural ideology that is so pervasive in society today.

Today, we talk about the overt emasculation of men, the hijacking of Hollywood, the battle of ideologies taking place in the entertainment industry, and also hot cultural buttons like transgenderism, unvetted illegal immigrants, the dangers of the World Economic Forum, and so much more.

I don't really believe there is an excuse to be broke in today's society. But there are factors that contribute to both the mindset and the behaviors that keep many men from financial prosperity. But once you become a man, I think your excuses expire. You, after all, are responsible for your own financial abundance and prosperity. In fact, it's one of the core tenants of manliness – to provide. Today, I'm joined by Dave Ramsay Personality, George Kamel, to talk about what keeps us from achieving the ultimate wealth and prosperity we desire. We talk about some common, pervasive myths about money, what exactly is the 'money matrix,' and how to break free from it, the importance of 'relational equity' in the wealth-building process, the three emotions keeping you from financial prosperity, and so much more.

The public school system is broken. Most of us know that and even if we do, it's hard to see a viable alternative to what so many have adopted as the way to educate our children.

I've spent a lot of time over the past 18 months looking into the various attachment styles of men – anxious, avoidant, and secure. I think we all intuitively know that "secure" is the best place to be, but the question is, "How do we get there?" It's especially difficult considering our engrained attachment style drives so much of our decision-making process – much of which is subconscious. My guest today is licensed psychotherapist and attachment specialist, Adam Lane Smith. Today, Adam and I discuss building secure, sustainable relationships, why responsibility breeds security and why we subconsciously avoid it, how the chemicals, Oxytocin and Vasopressin, drive our emotional and problem-solving connections, and why every man needs to work on building his "male solution network." SHOW HIGHLIGHTS Building secure and sustainable relationships Why responsibility breeds security, and why we subconsciously avoid it How the chemicals oxytocin and vasopressin drive our emotional and problem solving connections Why ever man needs to work on building his male solution network The different attachment styles seen in men Modern day dating The 5 clusters that are relied on to create healthy and secure attachment Modern femininity versus masculinity Building emotional intimacy JOIN the Iron Council brotherhood.

Fear keeps most men from pursuing meaningful and fulfilling opportunities in life – whether romantic, a business start-up, having a hard conversation, asking for a promotion or the sale, etc. But it really isn't what we think it is – the fear of failure. More often than not, it's the fear of what others may think about us that keeps us from going after what we desire. My guest is Dr. Michael Gervais, a psychologist who studies mastery and what keeps us from obtaining it. In fact, he has worked with Super Bowl Champions, Olympic Gold Medalists, and some of the most elite performers in the world. Today, we discuss FOPO (fear of people's opinions), the first rule of mastery, why we care so much about what others think, how we over-index approval as a necessary part of tribe building, and the dangers in being a one-dimensional man.

Passion and delusion aren't two terms we often think of working in harmony but my good friend and guest today, Bert Sorin, makes the case that some of the most successful people in the world are not only the most passionate but often believe (with no valid reason to) that they have what it takes to succeed.

Life is full of hard-learned lessons. We all know that. But it's been said that, "A smart man learns from his mistakes, a wise man learns from the mistakes of others." That's why this podcast is so powerful – because we get to hear from incredible men doing incredible things who can teach us things that would be painful, delayed, and expensive to find out ourselves. And, I can think of few men as qualified to do so as former NASA Astronaut, Mike Massimino. Today, Mike and I talk about some of his best lessons learned in the NASA program and in space including, "no one leaves the pool until everyone passes the test," learning to adjust to life and your goals along the way, what was different about NASA astronaut candidates that made them successful, knowing when to pivot and break a few rules, and how to achieve the seemingly impossible. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS Mike Massimino's books Moonshot and Spaceman What it takes to be an astronaut Space isn't always glamorous Passion and dedication Military culture If you really understand something, you should be able to communicate it to anybody.

We all know there is a formula for success in any venture. We've all heard things like, "success leaves clues," and seen certain people replicate success over and over and over again. And, yet, so many men struggle to create and maintain success on the professional and personal front of their lives. That's why it's so important we learn what protocols are required to achieve the results we desire. Today, I'm joined by philosopher and CEO, Brian Johnson to talk about his theory of Arete and why success on any level is so simple yet so elusive. We talk about what confidence in others actually is and how to develop it, how talent won't get you all the way to your goals, why intrinsic motivation must be your pursuit, and the Stockdale Paradox and how to use it to your advantage.

Men, our minds are nearly limitless and yet we spend an inordinate amount of time reading, running, working out, practicing hobbies, talking with other people, performing as best we can across various mediums and take so little time developing the power of our brains and minds. Of the nearly 500 guests I've had on this podcast, all of them believe their thing is the most important thing and, yet, it's the mind that makes everything else possible. That's why I wanted to have repeat guest, Jim Kwik back on the podcast to discuss how to leverage the gray matter between our ears. We talk about everything from learning to learn faster, the 6 thinking hats for decision making, 4 cognitive types (Cheetah, Owl, Dolphin, and Elephant) and how to use this information, and becoming the pilot of our minds, not just the passengers.

Every single man listening to this podcast sees issues with the current culture. And, yet, far too many men are unwilling to do anything about it. Whether it's a disdain for current culture commentary or a bad case of apathy, ignoring what we see going on around us isn't going to lead to anywhere positive. My guest today, author and podcast host, Andrew Klavan, is a man who is and has been for decades actively engaged in dealing with the decline of our current culture through writing, producing films, and podcast commentary. Today, we talk about rationalization and justification for doing the wrong things, why so many people tap-dance around biological reality, why we're losing this country through the movies, changing culture through art, when and when not to compromise, and viewing your own life as a work of art. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS ⁃ Anti-American movies and media after 9/11 ⁃ Behind The Daily Wire ⁃ The Andrew Klavan Show ⁃ What is a woman? ⁃ Comedy needs to be protected ⁃ The ostracization of Hollywood ⁃ Israel and Hamas ⁃ Conservative artists ⁃ The House of Love and Death by Andrew Klavan Order of Man Merchandise.
