What I track
I log anonymous usage events: a random session ID (stored in your browser until you tap "Start fresh"), which chip you clicked, how long responses take, what kinds of content I found for you, whether you clicked a recommendation, and the general topic of the conversation (like "divorce" or "purpose") picked from a fixed list. The text of our conversation is not stored in my analytics.
Your messages are processed by Anthropic's Claude AI to write my replies. Our conversation history lives in your browser's local storage, not on a server, and "Start fresh" erases it. I do not set cookies, send anything to Google Analytics, or store your IP address. Full details are in the privacy policy.

The Marlboro Trap (with Luke Adler)
The cowboy alone on his own acreage is the image most of us were handed. Dr. Luke Adler and I get into what that fantasy costs you every time you refuse help.
Why Success Alone Won’t Save You (with Luke Adler)
The dating gap and the jobs numbers are the symptoms everybody is counting. Dr. Luke Adler and I get into the emotional illiteracy underneath them that nobody is measuring.
The Weakness of Macho Men
At some point your body fails in a way you cannot push through, and you fall back on whatever support you built beforehand. Why posturing is still fear wearing a hard face.
From Toxic to Tonic Masculinity
One letter separates toxic from tonic. What masculine love looks like when it is generative, and how a man calls the best out of the people standing around him.
It’s Better to Be a Nice Guy Than to Be a Dick
Men's work loves to talk about killing the nice guy. He is already an upgrade on the man who came before him, and the work is to add power to him.
Why Men Fear Being Vulnerable in Relationship (with Luke Adler)
You were told to open up, you did it, and her reaction was not what you expected. Dr. Luke Adler and I on what happens when a man brings feeling into the room.
The World Needs MORE Angry Men
The most dangerous men are the aggressive ones who have no idea they are angry. The difference between the two, and how to carry anger in a way that stays clean.
Precarious Manhood and the Manbox
Manhood gets treated as a status you can lose, so you spend your life defending it. The two scripts running that, and what happens once you can actually see them.
Testosterone is Not the Problem
James Cameron called testosterone a toxin you slowly work out of your system. It is the go hormone and men need it. What the actual problem is, and where it sits.
Kryptonite for Men
Comparison runs from locker room measurements to somebody's vacation photos, and it has never once moved a man closer to what he wants. What to measure yourself against instead.
The Problem With How Most Guys Relate to Each Other
Men connect through a third thing, the game or the car or the job, sitting shoulder to shoulder. What becomes available the first time you turn and face another man.
Slay Your Gurus
The guru model came out of a different culture and a different century. Practical questions to ask anyone you are about to hand your development to, including me.

The work behind the podcast
