The Chick Whisperer Podcast

Co-Host Emily McKay (https://www.deservewhatyouwant.com) Finally, the full episode on a topic that everyone wonders about. It's no secret that men often want to date younger women. But what is it about those guys who are actually successful at doing so? And is it really true that many amazing young women actually prefer older men? First off, what actually counts as an 'older man' to a younger woman? Does the 'half your age plus seven' rule make any sense? What if our mental images and/or stereotypes about what an older man and younger woman look like as a couple are challenged? Above and beyond all of that, what are some legit factors to consider when there's an age gap? I mean, is age really 'just a number'? What's up with dating sites only for people over fifty...is that what the market is really looking for? And speaking of online dating, how about those sites that specialize in 'sugar daddy' arrangements? Is there something to be said for being an 'old soul', looking for someone who's a better fit at an o

Co-Host Derek Loudermilk (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/derek) Many people rely mostly upon what they can see. Visual attractiveness, visual flirtation cues, verbal conversation, and the like. But we know that attraction itself--like oxygen--is very real, yet we can't actually see it with our physical eyes. Well, my long-time friend and enthusiast toward all things metaphysical Derek Loudermilk returns to the show once again to talk about all the unseen forces we can harness to get better at relating to women. If that sounds like a unique topic, it probably is. I for sure hadn't heard it discussed elsewhere. That only means you can expect a 100% unique and original conversation, made all the more interesting by Derek's one-of-a-kind thought processes. Did you know the Nobel Prize for physics two years ago was given to scientists who basically proved that your 'reality' is wholly invented by the mind? Clearly, that idea sets the whole conversation off into a really wild and fascinating direction. What's the d

Co-Host Amanda Ludwig (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/ludwig) Amanda Ludwig was a busy businesswoman with a lot going on. Then, she started feeling some scary symptoms and went to the doctor, who told her point blank, 'slow down or die'. So then, since there was a lot of truth in Robin Williams' infamous joke, 'Death is God's way of saying, 'slow down'', she took her doctor's advice. Now, she's devoted to sending the message to 'Type A' folks everywhere to know and heed the signs of burn-out. After Amanda relates her story, including what her symptoms were, we talk about the important relationship between stress and burnout--a problem that particularly affects men. By the way, why are we as men particularly prone to this syndromic process? And why is it that mentally tough people are also so susceptible to the problem? What are some of the other warning signs that we're overstressed and experiencing burn-out? How are we as men supposed to 'slow down' when the pace of life is the fastest and most intense it ha

Co-Host Tommy Breedlove (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/legendary) Bestselling author, masculinity evangelist and my long-time friend Tommy Breedlove from The Mountain Top Lodge in Georgia joins me once again to cover one of the most important--yet most overlooked--topics we as men need to consider and get handled. That's building and protecting our reputation. First of all, what does the word 'reputation' even mean? And what are the foundational principles we as men should build ours upon? How can our choice of the right or wrong woman either help build our reputation or wreck it? What's the difference between an attempt to 'cancel' you and losing your reputation? Is drawing haters and controversy necessarily a bad thing...or could it actually mean you're doing something right? How can some people--or even entire businesses or organizations--get 'canceled', and yet only emerge even stronger and more respected than ever? What is the biggest 'innocent' mistake people tend to make that results in almost instant

Co-Host Gavin Stone (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/gavin) My guest is a former spy for the UK government, body language and social engineering expert, and erstwhile dating expert for men. He's the author of How To Tell If Someone Is Lying, along with other books, and he joins us to help you read women's signals, improve your flirting skills and finally get the girl. What can you tell about a woman's voice when she's talking to you? What can we know about someone's true feelings toward us simply by how they greet us? How can you truly tell when a woman is flirting with you rather than simply being friendly? Why is it that most men view flirting as blatant sexual interest from the get-go, when that almost NEVER unfolds as such in real life...for anyone? Next, Gavin talks in detail about how to project authority wherever you go...to get respect from men and attract women. And last, but certainly not least, Gavin offers his take on classic body language advice relative to attraction like when she plays with her

Co-Host Jaclyn London (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/london) My guest, Jaclyn London is a registered dietician and a bestselling author on the subject of separating dietary science from scams. As you'll soon find out, she has some surprising--if not downright unorthodox--thoughts on how we as men eat (and drink) horribly, and how improving that situation can make us more visually and socially attractive to women in record time. What is the difference between a fad diet food vs. stuff that genuinely doesn't work? How much of your tendency to gain weight or stay slim depends on who you are and your specific body chemistry? Are there certain men who can get away with being heftier and still be super attractive to women, even as other guys are deemed 'too skinny' by women? But meanwhile, according to Jaclyn there are indeed some key strategies every man can benefit from...even if we've 'tried everything and nothing worked'. Does intermittent fasting work? What works better? Next comes a huge takeaway--the differ

Co-Host Corey Nathan (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/nathan) In as apparently divided a world as we live in, one man has not only stepped up and decided to 'go there' on such 'hot potato' conversations such as politics and religion, he has even produced a podcast devoted to doing so. Corey Nathan is the producer and host of the popular show 'Talkin' Politics And Religion Without Killing Each Other'. And get this...he hasn't been 'canceled' yet. So what inspired Corey to step into this minefield? What has he personally observed about how people are IRL with each other nowadays? What was the train of events that got us to this point socio-politically? Wait until you hear Corey's take on how politics became 'religion' in this day and age, along with why it is that so many people somehow love to argue and fight with each other. Next, we discuss how art imitating life has morphed into life imitating art...if you can call the media 'art', right? Further, we go down the rabbit hole of how to handle first date conver

Co-Host Beth Warford (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/loaded) Who better to explain what makes a woman feel safe and protected than a woman who specializes in it? My guest is the founder of Pretty Loaded in North Dakota, and is dedicated to equipping both men AND women to be their own first responders. What do you need to be your own first responder? To that end, Beth starts off by showing you how you can use situational awareness every day. Why do criminals go after soft targets...and how can you be a hard target instead? Why is it imperative to talk with your partner about safety and come up with a plan? What are some pre-attack body language indicators? What do South Korean border guards do that we all can and should emulate (and it's easy)? Next up, I share a real-world security situation I encountered recently with Beth. What did I do right, and what could I have done better? Next, find out what is typically taught for the first half of concealed carry training, and why it's not surprising. And what are s

Co-Host Patrick James (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/raw) My guest is fellow dating coach for men and head honcho over at Raw Dating Advice, Patrick James. This time we hit a topic head-on that all too often is only covered with a negative twist. That, of course, is what to do if you've become jaded against women in general, or just discouraged from dating and relating to them. Unfortunately, almost every time you see this topic out there, it's because someone on YouTube is helping you throw yourself a pity party. Basically, there's WAY too much encouragement out there for men and women to stay away from each other...especially if we've just been through some sort of ordeal at the hands of a woman. But here's the thing, that mindset has 'victimhood' written all over it, and Patrick and I are in total agreement that's anti-masculine. I'm not going to keep you in suspense here. If you've started to feel yourself getting angry and bitter toward chicks, you have ONE choice. You have GOT to take your power back a

Co-Hosts Zach Browman and Devon Ash (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/fluency) The guys from Social Fluency have teamed back up together after a lengthy hiatus, and they're appearing here on the show for the first time. Zach and Devon have long been known as the go-to social skill experts in the world of men's dating advice, so there's nobody better to have on board for a full-on, no-holds-barred discussion of what it's like out there socially in the real world nowadays. Not that many people are actually being social IRL at all, frankly. That's a focal point of the discussion. Basically, we all agreed that there was a pre-COVID state of social skills, then COVID locked us all down, leading to a post-COVID state...and NOW a new and different one is upon us. Could this new fourth iteration of the social climate out there be the 'new normal'? We sure hope not...and we'll tell you why. And what about online dating and apps? Social media in general? What is going on between men and women nowadays...especially very r

Co-Host Emily McKay (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/coaching) If you've been out there dating for any time at all, you've likely compiled your fair share of weird dating stories. It's easy to think that those situations could only happen to you, and you've GOT to be the only one. But guess what? PLENTY of apparent weirdness on first dates is tons more common than you probably guess. Emily joins me this time around to recount not only a few of our own most bizzaro stories, but those of others we've heard from over the years. You can likely guess we started off with tales of gross misrepresentation and false advertising online. That topic is closely followed by talk about those awkward instances when only one of you thinks the date went well. Backlash when it didn't go well? We've got you covered. What about when she won't go away quietly? And don't forget those completely inappropriate demonstrations of or impatience about sexuality up front...or the opposite, taking FOREVER to make a move. What if your date (

Co-Host Lauren Zander (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/lauren) My returning guest, life coach Lauren Zander, is a self-described truth teller, who according to her website 'upholds a take-no-prisoners brand of radical personal accountability'. So is it any surprise she's on a personal crusade to inform the world about the seven ways people lie? Seven may be a lucky number, but not in this case...as Lauren boldly believes nobody should EVER lie, not even those 'little white lies' most of us see as socially acceptable, if not socially necessary. She observes that most of us KNOW when we're being lied to, even if we only sense it without being able to put of finger on exactly how. Lauren also wouldn't fall for the old PUA question of, 'Who lies more, men or women?' as she firmly believes ALL of us lie, whoever we are. Therefore, her list is not gender specific. So first off, why ARE social lies allegedly designed to keep conversation light and friendly really a bad thing? Next comes my theory on how there are two

Co-Host Tripp Kramer aka 'Tripp Advice' (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/tripp) After all these years, finally here's an episode about meeting women on Halloween. But careful...if you listen even a little bit closely, you'll discover plenty of golden tips you can use when meeting and interacting with women all year 'round. This all started when I asked my mastermind group who was up for this discussion, and none other than Tripp Kramer responded immediately. As it turns out, even after running a podcast himself for nine years and compiling over a million followers on YouTube, he hadn't covered Halloween nearly enough either. So we get started by dropping some serious tips for meeting women at Halloween parties. This isn't just about what to dress up as and how to talk to women about their costumes, however. There's plenty in there you can parlay into pickup success all year. Meanwhile, what are some of the biggest mistakes men make during the Halloween holiday? What is going to make you stand out in a field of

Co-Host Chase Amante (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/chase) Finally, after 16 years of production, we're getting around to doing a show on being an interesting man. It's an elusive term, isn't it? And most of us know far too few truly interesting people--whatever that means. Consider how 'The Most Interesting Man In The World' himself, from the beer commercials, failed to be replaced by anyone who could touch how genuinely interesting he was. Nevertheless, the quest to be interesting is a valid one, and indeed attainable. With me today to break it all down is my friend Chase Amante from Girls Chase, who has given the subject plenty of thought. We start the whole thing off with the number one most misunderstood factor when it comes to being interesting--which most men get exactly backwards. Next, we've all heard that 'mysterious' men are interesting. Yeah, well...how do you do that without being creepy? Does finding common ground with a woman really make you more interesting? Let's say you really do have tons

Co-Host Mary Beth Robinson (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/marybeth) My guest literally has a super-cool specialty. She's an expert on helping you find your superpower. Here's the deal. Women seem to generally be better at getting acknowledged and acknowledging each other for who they are. But meanwhile, we as men are often acknowledged specifically for what we accomplish. We're rarely seen for who we are. That doesn't change the simple fact that men NEED and WANT that. And it makes a huge difference in both our very sense of identity and our confidence level. That's where Mary Beth Robinson steps in, helping people find their very own superpower...the most powerful and effective feature of WHO THEY are. From there, what to DO with that superpower comes next. See how cool that is? So then, how DO you find your superpower? Why do people often completely dismiss their superpower, even after they know what it is? What does Mary Beth mean, exactly, when she says, 'If you don't use your superpower, it will use you

Co-Host Seth Nelson (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/seth) My guest is a divorce lawyer in Florida with quite an interesting distinction. Not only has he himself been divorced, he has recently gotten married again...this time to a girl he's known since elementary school. Now, how can a guy like Seth who sees the flotsam and jetsam of the Florida family law system on a daily basis keep from becoming cynical about marriage in general? I mean, he has as good an excuse for becoming a MGTOW as anyone. Well, wait until you hear Seth's somewhat surprising view in support of marriage, and of having a quality woman by one's side. You'll also find out how Seth bounced back from his own divorce and what he did to minimize the chances of ever having to go through it a second time. Hint: The story will sound familiar. Next, discover the all-important secret of how Seth got out of the 'just be friends zone' with the woman who is now his wife. In Seth's opinion, what's the number one breakdown in relationships leading to div

Co-Host Dr. Anthony Balduzzi (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/fitfather) The importance of mental sharpness as a man isn't focused upon nearly enough in general. But what almost NEVER gets covered is how important it is to attracting women and keeping them attracted. Dr. Anthony Balduzzi is a men's health doctor who specializes in maximizing your physical health for overall effectiveness. That means he has distanced himself from the 'sick care' culture prevalent nowadays in healthcare. One of the most significant parts of his practice is helping men identify the causes of the 'brain fog' that affects a frightening number of us nowadays, eliminate it if it affects us and--most of all--prohibit it from happening in the first place. For starters, how much of what's going on here can be attributed to "Long Covid", as kind of a sub-pandemic? Tune in as Dr. Balduzzi explains a whole host of different factors that affect mental acuity nowadays, leaving us to wonder how any of us as men can keep our wits about us at a

Co-Host Cyndi Olin (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/olin) Sometimes even after nearly 400 episodes, it occurs to me that we've let a reasonably important topic somehow slip through the cracks after all these years. This time we're catching up on the idea of second dates. It all started when my long-time friend and erstwhile Clubhouse colleague Cyndi Olin wrote an excellent article to her mostly female audience about why men don't ask women out again after the first date. Although she warned her readers the real reasons aren't what they may seem, it occurred to me that plenty of us as men can't always put our finger on the 'why' there, either. So naturally, we kick off the show by hashing that question out. Then, Cyndi herself brings up the idea of what I call 'warm levity'...and the version of it she teaches women. Where should you go on the second date, and what questions should the two of you ask each other? What changes if you're not exactly relationship-minded right now? Do people sometimes go out on secon

Co-Host Joe Gatto (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/chef) As you may know, I not only love to cook, I have always loved cooking for women. Having that ability is like holding the codes for the nuclear weapon of attraction, and I've literally written the book on the subject. So you may be wondering why it has taken me so freaking long to talk about it on this show. Well, as is typically the case, it's all about having the right guest. Joe Gatto is a celebrity chef on radio and TV who absolutely, positively agrees that we as men gain a legit superpower when we can cook for the woman in our life. In fact, he'll be the first to tell you how women love a man who can cook, because that's exactly how he got his wife to adore him. Now listen, even though Chef Gatto is well-known for making everything from scratch (including his utensils and even his charcoal), he's completely on board for making this all-conquering skill as simple as possible for you to learn. Stay tuned for practical steps to wowing women with your ap

Co-Host Michael Allison (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/allison) Whether we realize it or not, any adversity and trauma we experience earlier in life tends to have a deeply detrimental effect on both our mindset and our relationships later. My guest's story is about as clear a demonstration of that dynamic possible, which alone makes it worth hearing. But the flat-out truth is Michael Allison has faced more ordeals--sometimes one after the other--than most of us have had to endure. Yet, he ultimately refused to quit, and refused to be a victim. Nowadays, he's living his best life and wants the same for every man within the sound of his voice. So, how did Michael bounce back from years of struggle...emerging with a growth mindset rather than what he calls a 'fixed' mindset? What does it mean to 'break the bottle'? Why is it actually easier to be vulnerable when you should be than most guys expect? Is a long-term relationship with a high-quality woman truly the ultimate 'status symbol'? And while I often say a
