Here's how to tell for sure from now on.

Co-Host Josh Hatcher (https://mountaintoppodcast.com.hatcher) Most of us are sick and tired of hearing about how 'toxic' or otherwise flawed we are simply for being men, let alone masculine. Josh Hatcher from Manlihood.com is on a mission not to help men 'do better', like the narrative would dictate, but go from good to great as men of virtue. The first step is to recognize that even though toxicity does exist within certain men, virtuous masculinity is a completely different set of traits. We as men are powerful forces for good in the family, society and indeed for shaping our future as a human race. If weak men create hard times, are we headed toward hard times or are we already there? And how can we make a difference individually fighting like hell in that context? So then, how does Josh define 'darkness' to begin with? Are there really two different ways to talk about it? And what's the first big mistake many men make when they decide to stand their ground and fight for freedom and masculinity? What are some ways we as men can figure out what brand of 'darkness' we really need to confront within ourselves, do so, and make the necessary changes to be wiser and more evolved masculine men? How does our past inevitably shape who we are as men...including the darkness that resides within us? How does the steady droning of media and the narratives associated with it distract us, affect our abilities to cut through the crap and remain grounded as virtuous, masculine men? Why are so many otherwise brave men either unable or unwilling do indeed deal with their crap before it deals with them instead? More--including free stuff--at https://mountaintoppodcast.com

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === Way too many of us as men fall into the trap of ending up with a woman who is the WRONG fit for us. Here are three different ways we can potentially let flat-out myths craft our relationship reality...almost invariably with disastrous results. https://mountaintoppodcast.com

Co-Host Sharlee Lyons (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/allstar) It's easy to feel 'average' as a man. After all, by definition only 50% of us can be above average. But even if you treat the term 'average' as being more synonymous with 'normal' or 'typical', we all instinctively desire to be as far ABOVE 'average' as we can be. I mean, anything with 'one-percenter' in the title is an irresistible read to us as men. My guest Sharlee Lyons is an author, educator and--of course--athlete who is passionate about empowering men like you to stop being 'bench warmers' in life and become all-stars. It doesn't matter if we're talking about sports, business, your social life or your attractiveness to women. So where do we start on this journey? Sharlee talks about core values and what she calls 'selective goal setting'. What is the one factor that separates all-stars from the also-rans? (Hint: It's NOT raw talent)All-stars play home games and away games, of course. How does that apply to excelling at life in general...and especially with women? How does a true all-star handle inevitable adversity? And here's a good one...what do you do if you're out there grindin', but feel like you're slipping backwards instead of propelling yourself to all-star status? Most true all-stars play on a team. How do they make the other players around them better? How can we as men leave an all-star legacy...even for generations to come? Can confidence really lead to humility...in the best way possible?

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === The first step to gaining attraction, admiration and respect from women is to respect ourselves--and each other--as men first. There's an insidious way many of us as men undermine those objectives, even as we think we're building ourselves up. It's an 'elephant in the room' that nobody talks about...until now. https://mountaintoppodcast.com

Co-Host Adam Gamble (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/gamble) If you're looking for the episode that's just jam-packed with stories and examples you're sure to relate to, this is likely to be the one...at least if your experience with women mirrors that of most other guys like my guest and myself. You see, for most of us it's as challenging to build solid friendships with other dudes as it is to approach, attract and get the right woman into our life. My guest, author (and bestseller of millions of copies, by the way) Adam Gamble just authored a new book with his long time best friend (and fellow NYT bestselling author) Michael Tougias called The Power Of Positive Fishing: A Story Of Friendship And The Quest For Happiness. Despite the title, this is no 'fish story', at least in the proverbial sense. These two guys found themselves single again and were nothing short of instrumental in having each other's back through the divorce, while dating again, and all the way through finding their respective long-term "keepers". In this discussion, you'll discover the valid dating tips they gave each other, how the guys evolved as men while single, the methods they used to meet women, how they handled first dates, and even what happened when Adam hired a coach. As you can already imagine, along with the actionable advice come some great stories. Come for the powerful tips...stay for the Don Knotts impression.

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === Most of you know I have every reason to have become bitter and jaded toward women. Here's my olive branch to those of you who have decided women aren't worth it, even to the point of going your own way. I ain't mad atcha. https://mountaintoppodcast.com

Co-Host Preity Upala (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/preity) My returning guest is one of your favorites, being both as charming and unoffendable as she is. That among other reasons makes her the right one for a spirited and sometimes even controversial discussion on BAD men's dating advice out there, from the perspective of a woman. So how about it? First of all, what does a woman know about men's dating advice? On a related note, why does it seem like women have dating and relationship advice figured out while we as men seem to be left in the dark? What are we as men supposed to do when even very average women seem to think they're some sort of 'goddess'? Who should we definitely not take relationship advice from? Is 'tactical' a bad word when it comes to men's dating advice? And speaking of 'bad', why this focus on 'bad boys' all the time? And what is 'the high-value man delusion'? Who are 'passport bros', and what bad advice are they basing their strategy on? Next, you'll have the distinct pleasure of discovering what 'Hustler University' is, although it's most definitely not what you thought of first. What are three words that describe much of men's dating advice that almost NEVER work...at least on smart, desirable women? And finally, why is it dangerous for 'normal' guys to try to pretend they're badasses, and what should we do instead that would actually work better with women?

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === When you lose your temper there are consequences. And unfortunately, the more intense the moment and the more that's at stake, the more you have to lose by blowing your cool. Even though your respect from fellow men is at stake, the more poignant truth is that the women are also watching. https://mountaintoppodcast.com

Co-Host Dr. Jeremy Zoch (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/jeremy) It seems like everyone and their mother is hyping up the idea of 'living your best life' nowadays. But my guest Dr. Jeremy Zoch is putting a somewhat unique spin on it which is well worth paying attention to. You see, most advice out there on the subject is generally aimed toward people who aren't anywhere near where they want to be, and might not even know how to get there. But in Jeremy's case, life was already pretty good. What he realized, however, is since we all only get one shot at life, it doesn't necessarily make sense to do the same thing for decades and decades, despite how 'nice' your life may be. Any of you guys who've gone through my Un-Settled program already know this is a thought process that's near and dear to my own heart as well. The cool twist on what Jeremy talks about is you don't necessarily have to commit to total upheaval of your entire lifestyle to get more out of life. Rather, there are simple building blocks you can put in place to make that happen. How can you go beyond the simple concepts of where you live and what you do for a living to create a better life without uprooting absolutely everything in the process? And what's more, how can you gain greater respect AND influence even as you make the changes? What is a 'life map'? Finally, what is Jeremy's unique spin on what it means to be 'present', vis-a-vis the shop-worn usage of that term? Get down to what's real at https://mountaintoppodcast.com
