Previous Episode

Steven Bonnell the popular Twitch gamer that goes by the name Destiny has built a successful career streaming while talking politics, debating, and trolling right-wing culture from one of the biggest soapboxes.
I hope you’re ready for this deep dive into the manosphere unpacking the red pill community of online influencers causing men to feel more lost than ever.
So what are we digging into in part one of this two-part episode?
- How online influencers like Andrew Tate attract so many followers
- Why you can’t get through the manosphere’s echo chamber of toxic beliefs, and
- Why balanced perspectives are sorely needed to tackle misinformation being spread online
QUOTES:
“Luring you in with the cars and the money and the girls, but I’m ultimately trying to sell you self-improvement. I feel like that’s a deal with the devil that doesn’t pan out.”
“Luck means that it isn’t fair.”
“In the push to elevate women and minorities and all of these other types of people in society who historically didn’t have the best representation, I think we’ve kind of made the mistake of turning white people and young men into the enemy because they had the stage for so long.”
“Masculinity is not toxic in and of itself, but aggression can be wielded poorly, in which case it would look toxic.” -Tom Bilyeu
“Given the ability to work jobs and have autonomy over their lives, women don’t want to choose to be locked away as moms at 18,19, 20 years old, That’s a really hard sell.”

Are you ready to unravel the mysteries of modern male behavior? Buckle up for part one of a riveting two-part episode where we delve into the significant behavioral shifts in young men, marked by an increase in recklessness and a trend towards evading long-term commitments.
Joining me today is William Costello, an expert on behavioral patterns, writer, researcher, and PhD student at the Evolutionary Psych Lab who will shed light on the rising recklessness, commitment-phobia among young men, and the emerging 'mating crisis'.
We'll unpack the 'mating crisis', linking the drop in male commitment to relationships with the surge of women outpacing men in education.
But that's not all! We'll also explore how dating apps and the internet have transformed the modern dating scene, giving rise to new socio-cultural phenomena like the 'incel' community.
