Listen "Ep. 48 - Pick-up Culture is Failing You"
Episode Synopsis
Today’s episode dives deep into why pick-up culture is failing you. While entertainment often makes dating a competitive game of conquest and risk avoidance, it ultimately leaves men frustrated and women uncomfortable.
The truth is: our dating culture is broken precisely because it promotes selfishness, manipulation, and disposability. Join us as we discuss a better way—moving from “picking up” women to genuinely pursuing them. Healthy masculinity isn’t found in clever lines but in respecting women as valuable individuals worthy of care and genuine interest. It’s time to discard the “barstool playbook” and embrace a healthier vision for dating and marriage.
