Thriving In Public, Struggling In Private - MTP 526 Aug 21, 2026

Show notes

Co-Host Mike Basevic (https://mountaintoppodcat.com/nolimits) Mike Basevic had it all, and then lost it all. As I read his story, I realized it sounded a lot like mine. That's no coincidence, as it happens to a lot of men. We go through lives holding it all together and looking good on the outside, but inside we're falling apart. How do we "man up" in those circumstances and get real? In our culture, it sounds like an oxymoron to even think like that. But high performing men in particular are the most likely ones to look like they have it all, but be empty inside...privately battling anxiety, stress, overwhelm and yes...imposter syndrome. Could this be why so many "well put together" men aren't finding the right woman? According to Mike, "Everything you want in life is on the other side of your resistance." So why is it that the "country club set" are so often the most miserable people inside? What is the real reason most men won't even seek help when they're at a low point? How does being "perfectly imperfect" apply to us as men in a good way? There are basically two camps of people in Western culture. Which one you're in will greatly affect how much you struggle in private. Most men refuse to forgive themselves for past failures, whether that's in their career, their family, or even with women. Why is that? One thing is for sure: Unless and until your authentic side is ready to show up and show out, you will continue to struggle with women.

Getting The Girl Depends On Your Moves, Not Hers - SFTS 133 Aug 18, 2026

Show notes

===SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT===We've been told not to give attractive women straight answers, and to avoid looking "needy" at all costs. But what's the collateral damage when we completely retreat from telling a woman our real intentions? Too many of us as men are sick and tired of getting lukewarm answers from women who we're never sure are really interested in us. But here's the good news: Your leadership as a man is the difference that makes the difference. As always in any social situation, especially with women, reading the room matters.

Stay Attractive As You Mature - MTP 525 Aug 14, 2026

Show notes

Co-Host Regan Archibald (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/ageless) None of us are getting any younger, although the truth is we don't necessarily have to look or feel old, either. It seems obvious when said out loud that everyone--including us as men--would love to be attractive to women for as many years as we can, and feel great physically for as long as possible too. My first-time guest is Dr. Regan Archibald, who is the founder of the very successful Ageless Future practice. Whatever age you are now, it's never too early--or too late--to set this life-changing info into motion. To kick the show off, we dispel some of the myths men have about looking good as we mature, including that study that claims women find men attractive up to age 55. Next, we talk about the fascinating concept of identifying as someone who is younger, and how to do that authentically instead of looking weird or pathetic. How much more timely is this topic now that the promise of expanding the human lifespan is becoming reality? How true is it that many guys let themselves get (and feel) "old" because it gives them an excuse? What are the subtle ways the company we keep affects our long-term health? What is the interesting complaint about men that we hear most often from women 55 and older? One of Regan's quotes is, "Many ambitious professionals unknowingly trade decades of long term health for a few years of professional success." How can we achieve better balance in our lives in that regard? Finally, what if you're a guy who's showing signs of slowing down and looking and/or feeling old? What can you do right now to turn that ship around? Get the free report "Flip The Switch: 5 Things You Can Do Right Now To Get Better With Women" when you visit: https://mountaintoppodcast.com

"Looksmaxxing" Is An Over-Correction - SFTS 132 Aug 11, 2026

Show notes

==SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT===Here it is...if we fall for the "looksmaxxing" trend, it says more to women about what we LACK as men than what we HAVE. Where did we as men start buying into this trend to begin with? Why is putting all that pressure on ourselves actually unnecessary? What is it that women are really looking for...even though it's MUCH more attainable for nearly every man? Discover the truth about how women look at men, put it to work for you, and get the girl where the "looksmaxxers" fail without ever understanding how or why.

How To Talk To Women About STIs - MTP 524 Aug 07, 2026

Show notes

Co-Host Robert Johnson (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/shameless) My first-time guest Robert Johnson is the founder of Shameless Care, a sexual health telemedicine company focused on STI testing and medications. That alone makes him the right guy to finally do a show with on the topic of how to talk about sexually transmitted diseases/infections with women. But as it turns out, Robert has some street cred. His personal story is actually what led to the founding of the company. So first of all, what is it that makes us as men so reticent to have, well...necessary conversations with women about sex? What were we taught in school (and perhaps even church) about sex that beset us with an awkward mindset about it for life? Next why it's true you're not really "damaged goods" if you have an STI (hint: almost everyone who is sexually active is infected with something). What should we do to test ourselves properly, and indeed to protect ourselves from getting STIs to begin with? How are women likely to respond to the "STI talk" in ways we probably aren't expecting? When is the right time to have an STI conversation with a woman...and the wrong time? What can we know about a woman's STI risk by her "body count", or how clean she looks and seems? And what about the HIV/AIDS situation nowadays? What are the real-world risks, and how should you talk about that? Overall, I have to say this show ended up being at least as much fun as it is necessary, which is always a good thing.

"Emotional Regulation" That Attracts Women? - SFTS 131 Aug 04, 2026

Show notes

===SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT===Man, the buzz phrase of 2026 so far has got to be "emotional regulation". But what does it even mean? And what made it such a popular subject of conversation lately? Well, as it turns out our masculine presence depends upon it, especially when it comes to attracting the most feminine women. But here's the thing...most people in general, not just us as men, are lacking the ability to regulate ourselves emotionally more than ever. The most alarming part? We're not even losing out lunch over stuff that matters...so how are we supposed to inspire confidence when the chips are down in real life?

Women Want Your Outrageous Self - MTP 523 Jul 31, 2026

Show notes

Co-Host Dr. Dain Heer (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/dain) In this logical follow-up to last week's show with Emily, my first-time guest Dr. Dain Heer claims that all of us are authentically at least a little bit outrageous. What's more, being you is the ultimate rebellion. And the world needs that from you...now. Especially women. You see, this is a major part of what keeps you from becoming the dreaded "Gen-Eric" guy. Not feeling it? That's pretty normal...but the truth is that your particular brand of "outrageous" nature is probably different from someone else's, and your authentic interpretation of it is what counts. We start off by talking about Dain's book Return Of The Gentleman, and how most of us as men are honorable enough to do the right thing, while being powerful enough to do the hard things that aren't always so pleasant. And yes, for men being sexual beings is absolutely normal and right. How has a man's authenticity become more important than ever in the age of AI? How does being our "outrageous" authentic selves enable women to trust us more, not less? And how did men start losing our inherent audacity to begin with? Most of all, how to we reframe and reclaim being our authentic selves even in the slightest of outrageous ways, and find out first-hand how radically and powerfully it affects our success with women? Here's a hint...if you're a naysayer who believes the deck is stacked against you, that's the first narrative that needs work. But truly, this isn't something you have to do, it's something you GET to do.

Can "Analog Resistance" Make You Better With Women? - SFTS 130 Jul 28, 2026

Show notes

===SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT===We've been talking about how the old school is the new school for quite some time now. But what if this idea goes way beyond meeting women in real life instead of on apps and reclaiming classic virtuous masculinity? The new term is "analog resistance" and it's probably not what you think. This isn't a bunch of old codgers saying, "get off my lawn". As it turns out, younger generations are leading the charge. The problem is, having never lived a life apart from electronic domination, they don't exactly know how. This spells a brilliant opportunity for older men to attract younger women...but only if you're not a "dinosaur" about it.

Our Most Authentic Self - MTP 522 Jul 24, 2026

Show notes

Co-Host Emily McKay (https://www.deservewhatyouwant.com) Nobody in Western culture wants to come off as fake to anyone. Authenticity rules, especially if we expect to build meaningful, connected relationships...especially with MOTOS. But the tricky question has always been about how to know when you're being your true self. What context is that most likely to occur in...and with whom especially? Well, the hot take this show is built around is that we just might be our most authentic self when we're around those we feel most comfortable with. That's a heavy statement...especially if you don't exactly like who you tend to become around family, best friends and other loved ones. But is it necessarily true? And even if it is, is it necessarily a bad thing that we can express who we really are and what we really feel with those we're closest to, even if it's occasionally unpleasant? Similarly, is it not a good thing to respond plainly and truthfully when they interact with us? And what about "reading the room" and tailoring our behaviors, and even our mindset, to specific situations? Is it "fake" to be adaptive? As it turns out, Emily and I were reminded of this topic and the value of discussing it after a legitimately weird occurrence this past week. We got the perhaps once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to interact with each other as total strangers--even though we've been together for over twenty years. How in the world does that happen? Stay tuned for the story...and why it matters. Get in on the special report "Flip The Switch: 5 Ways To Get Better With Women Right Now" when you visit https://mountaintoppodcast.com.

What Is "Friendfluence"? - SFTS 129 Jul 21, 2026

Show notes

===SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT===There's yet another new dating trend/buzzword now: "friendfluence". Now, on the surface you can figure what this is about. Women in particular have been letting their friends whisper in their ear about the guys they're dating since the dawn of recorded time. But thanks to a new "hail mary" attempt from Tinder to stay relevant, there's an added dimension. As it turns out, it's really nothing new either...it's just that most people haven't thought about it for a LONG time. So what did Tinder do, exactly? And how is it legitimately moving the needle...especially for women? And most of all, what should we as men do not only to merely leverage it, but to turn it into a massive advantage?
