Lauren Mac, as I used to call her, is one of my favorite people from high school. If we’d kept in touch better, she’d be like my Chase or Capt. Byro, but female. But Lauren’s been busy raising 3 kids and and building a successful real estate career. Plus, I travel overseas a good bit.
Let Them Think You’re Weird: My Views on Human Nature
Some people think my views on human nature are unique. But they’re shaped by my observations and life experiences—a lot of which was recorded for later study. To me, my views are common sense—something we got away from in recent years, hence the need to write and talk more about it. I want to do
What Men Respect, Looks that Kill, Is He Gay or European?
In this 15th solo episode, I break down the Trump-Zelensky Oval Office meeting—another masterful display of negotiating we wouldn’t normally be privy to. I see if I can explain what a lot of people missed. For example, why respect between men is so important you might want to wear a suit to the most important
Don’t be a Sucker: Know Who the Bad Guys Are
When you arrive at the table, you’ll want to quickly identify the sucker. Otherwise, the sucker may be you. The sucker is the bad guy—the one who’s been cheating to win. He’d be indignant if asked to verify whether he’s been playing by the rules. So don’t be fooled by appearances (this article isn’t about
SNL 50th Anniversary, Did OJ Do It? Fooled by Randomness
In this 14th consecutive solo episode, I start with the “SNL 50th Anniversary Special.” They rolled out classic skits that “didn’t age well,” according to Tom Hanks. But let’s be real—those were the best skits of all-time—back when Saturday Night Live was funny and we could make fun of each other. Then “wokeism” turned every
I Write Sins Not Tragedies
When people talk about their time in high school, I’m all ears. The reason is there’s so much to learn about human nature from that formidable time in our lives. I’m always digging deeper to understand what causes people to behave the way they do. For example, what causes people to be jealous or envious?
Americans in the High Castle: A Political Analogy by an “Internet Dad”
Politics isn’t what I most enjoy writing or talking about. In fact, I rarely talked politics publicly before this last administration. But men like me, often referred to as “Internet Dads,” felt compelled to speak up as the 2024 Election approached—things had gotten that bad in America. Plus, we knew other men wanted to say
Trump’s Inauguration, Negotiate Like a Genius, White Dudes for Harris
In this 12th consecutive solo episode, I talk about what’s happening in our great nation right now—the Inauguration of Donald Trump as President of the United States. I discuss what his presidency means for the country moving forward. I also talk on the topic of human nature and share my thoughts on the two genders
Bourbon Street Terror Attack, Why DEI Must DIE, My Top 5 Songs of 2024
Happy New Year! In this 11th solo episode (and first of 2025), I dive into heavy topics that hit close to home. For example, I discuss the recent Bourbon Street terror attack in New Orleans. The tragedy of it is particularly unsettling since I’ve been there at 3am more than once. And watching the horrific
Symbolism > Status Symbols
I’m not into status symbols. But I do like symbolism. Especially the sort of symbols others won’t “get,” but mean something to you. For example, I used to have three humanoids prominently displayed in my living room. I’ll explain. As a 31-year old bachelor, all I knew about decorating was that things on the wall
Male Vanity, More Propaganda, All-Inclusive Vacations
In this 9th solo episode, I talk about why we’re in Mexico. Two main reasons: I wanted to give the wife a break; I had another medical procedure done. After the misery of recovering from previous procedures, I figured if I had to go through it again, I’d rather recover on a beach in Cancun
