I sat down with McConnell and Kane to discuss how marriage impacts dating and relationships and all the various setups possible and then we dive into a discussion of Tinder that was sparked by an interview with Jordan Peterson on Femsplainers (linked below).
We also spent some time talking about the book, Selfie, which was a book club book for our Approach Mastery boot camp alumni that charts the evolution of the ideal self from the Greeks until the present moment of personal development, and even throws in some comparisons with Asia for good measure!
As usual the conversation went on a lot of different bizarre, educational and hilarious tangents and you’ll learn why we think Online game is bad for men, including:
Who McConnell would trade lives with
Kane’s marriage setup (Yup, he’s married!)
How to decide what you want then plan for the worst to get the best

How women miss out on valuable social experience because of Tinder
How to be the best human you can be according to western civilization

The Big Five personality traits, sometimes known as "the five-factor model of personality" or " OCEAN model", is a grouping of five unique characteristics used to study personality.

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator ( MBTI) is a pseudoscientific self-report questionnaire that claims to indicate differing " psychological types" (often commonly called "personality types").

The Enneagram of Personality, or simply the Enneagram, is a model of the human psyche which is principally understood and taught as a typology of nine interconnected personality types. Although the origins and history of ideas associated with the Enneagram of Personality are disputed, contemporary approaches are principally derived from the teachings of the Bolivian psycho-spiritual teacher Oscar Ichazo from the 1950s and the Chilean psychiatrist Claudio Naranjo from the 1970s.
