Better Men Get Better Women - The Mountain Top

Co-Host Suzanne Noble (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/noble) My first-time guest Suzanne Noble is the host of Sex Advice For Seniors. Whatever you're thinking, forgettaboutit. She is candid, open and honest enough to make Dr. Ruth Westheimer blush. So what can a woman who's compiled over 10,000 hours of sexual activity (now Malcolm Gladwell's blushing as well) tell us about sex and relationships? Well, after bantering a bit about h...

===SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT===People pleasers have the bad habit of trying to seek approval from everyone. Typically, talk on this subject gravitates around how people pleasers attract narcissists, which is a bad thing for sure. But there's an even darker side to this mindset and its associated behavior pattern that almost guarantees perpetual failure with women. Worse, most people pleasers have a massive blind spot. How can you fi...

Co-Host Emily McKay (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/coach) Emily joins me once again, this time for a fun-filled topic. Yes, we're talking about flirting...and flirting should indeed be fun. If it's work, drudgery, or even creepy and weird then we're not doing it right. Since women love fun, that means they also love to flirt. So what IS flirting really, anyway? And given the stereotype that sex slows down (or stops) after marriage...

===SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT=== Last week we talked about how men try to find a "workaround" for not being tall, good looking or rich...when the truth is we should be focusing more on what our strengths actually are. As a follow up, this week I'm covering another equally tricky prank we play on ourselves. The craziest part about this one is we hold ourselves to such strict account in this regard when considering our potential attrac...

Co-Host Brandon Wade (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/seeking) My first time guest Brandon Wade s the founder and co-CEO of Seeking.com, a dating platform he founded in 2006 after his own frustrations with modern dating and difficulty finding meaningful connection. For nearly 20 years, he has helped build and evolve Seeking around a core idea that now feels more relevant than ever: successful relationships start with honesty, intent...

===SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT=== For years we've been told women want tall, rich, good-looking guys...and then given workarounds, loopholes or "quick fixes" to try to get women without having any of those traits going for us. Well, how is that working out? If not so well, this brief episode exposes the real truth. It's not that you've been lied to about not needing to have won the "genetic lottery" to get women, it's just that for al...

Co-Host Simone Milasas (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/simone) You have what's commonly known as relationships, you have situationships, and now you have creationships. The term was coined by my first-time guest Simone Milasas, who sheds some new light on some of the ideals we've held true for years now around here. Now obviously, a "creationship" should be the opposite of, say, a "destructionship", but what is it exactly? Simone e...

===SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT=== Too many of us psyche ourselves out when it's time to meet a woman and invite her to spend some quality time with us. We start fearing rejection, think of the hundreds of other guys she'd probably want instead of us, and end up rationalizing our inaction. Meanwhile, sure enough...some other guy who's really no better than you ends up with her. What's he got that you don't? The truth is he probably did...

Co-Host Gabriela Rosa (https://mountaintoppodcast.com) Sure, a lot of guys fear--or even dread--fatherhood. But what if you have the right woman in your life, are finally ready to start a family with her...but can't? And it turns out the problem isn't her, it's you. My first-time guest Gabriela Rosa is a Harvard-trained fertility specialist and founder of Fertility Breakthrough, the world's first fully virtual fertility clinic. She...

===SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT=== The idea of a rite of passage from boyhood to manhood is talked about constantly in masculinity circles. Well, even though lots of other world cultures have historically had one well-defined moment when a boy comes a man, either by ritual or simple pronouncement, that certainly is not the case here in the post-modern Western world. We look around us and see way too many "man children" whose ID cards s...

Co-Host Jim Wolfe (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/funny) My long-time friend and fellow coach Jim Wolfe returns, this time to talk about how to use the kind of humor that women find attractive. We kick things off by talking about the oxymoron that the harder we try to be funny, the less funny we are. What do you do with that situation? Well, the good news is being funny is a learned skill...but one few men ever master. What kind of...

===SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT=== Who knows where the term started, but "sexual threat" is one of the most widely mis-interpreted phrases in the world of seduction and attraction science. For better or worse, it's also dead-on accurate in terms of describing what's going on. Obviously, we know a "Big Four" man is rightly focused on making a woman feel safe and comfortable. So how can something called a "threat" be a positive and power...

Co-Host Marni Kinrys (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/fwithher) We talk about making women feel safe and secure, but what else do women need to feel genuine, raw, primal attraction? My long-time friend and returning guest Marni "The Wing Girl" Kinrys joins us to talk about her "Four Ss" (which I'm not exactly sure how to type out in proper English), which have everything to do with how we show up and lead as a man. Before we dive in...

===SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT=== We're hard-wired to want women, and women are hard-wired to want us. That's how it has been since the dawn of time. So what's happened in the last century or so to make men apparently uninterested in women? Was it that women were uninterested in us first? Well, the truth is all of us--men and women--have been tricked. What's the truth underneath all of the division between men and women? And more impo...

Co-Host Rob Judge (https://mountaintoppodcat.com/robai) As much as I'd love to be, I can't be on call to every one of you guys I work with 24/7. I mean, I've been known to try...and I do get texts from guys right before 2am California time wondering how to get a woman's number at the bar before it closes.  Well, my long-time friend and fellow men's coach Rob Judge has the same exact predicament. So as it turns out, both of us indep...

===SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT=== When we think of a 50-year-old man with a 20-year-old woman, we get a very specific mental picture. Mature guys who can pull that off are like heroes, right? Well...not so fast. What if the reality is different than what you expect? Either way, what are the right and the wrong reasons to entertain a 10, 15 or even 30 year age gap between partners like that? What if other people freely share their snar...

Co-Host Kaamna Bhojwani (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/technosexual) My first-time guest Kaamna Bhojwani is a long-time sexologist, and more recently a technosexuality expert. With the rise of telephony, the Internet, social media and now AI we've all become more technosexual nowadays than we might even realize. But what IS "technosexuality"? Well, as unsettling as it sounds, it's at least not to be confused with replacing human s...

===SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT=== ===SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT=== The underground society of pickup artists may be LONG gone, but the PUA movement is still alive and well. It just sort of changed venues. What's up with that? Well, men are never going to stop wanting to know how to attract and seduce women. But nowadays you can't just expect to go to a bar or disco club on Friday night and pull chicks. A big part of that is there are ba...

Co-Host Kenny Vaughan (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/kenny) My first-time guest Kenny Vaughan is the author of The Right Fight and founder of Shield of Strength. He spends a lot of time thinking about what love is, and isn't. For years, Kenny thought love was only a feeling...but then realized there was something deeper there. He didn't buy that "love is a decision", either. What does, "I love you, I'm just not in love with you an...
