Episode 126: The Man on the Street

Subscribe & Listen:

“The man on the street,” “the cute blonde from whole foods…” if you have a cell phone, it’s probably full of names like these. The names we give people. The things we identify them by.

Today’s reality check is that habit of ours. My guest John Keegan and I are going to go over some of the names we’ve given people, why we do it, and what it says about us.

So join us today for some radical self-help that doesn’t suck. Subscribe to and rate the podcast in your podcatcher of choice, and learn more about John at https://theawakenedlifestyle.com/

Episode 125: Do You Have an LFI Draining the Shit Out of You?

Subscribe & Listen:

Do you waste your time with all the LFIs in the world??? Wait – what’s an LFI, you ask? It’s a low frequency individual. Someone who, well, just isn’t evolved as a person.

And they can really drain your time and energy. So today, John and I are going to tell you EXACTLY how to deal with all the LFIs in your life.

Episode 124: Please Don’t Pee on the Seat… Or Else!

Subscribe & Listen:

We’ve talked about moral compasses. We’ve talked about dishonest men and women who have no integrity. But today… we’re talking about one of the greatest crimes against humanity: poor bathroom etiquette.

That’s right. I’m back in the studio with John Keegan and we’re going to go over the biggest bathroom faux pas, why people do it, and what it says about them.

Episode 123: Do You Lack a Moral Compass?

Subscribe & Listen:

I’ve spent this weekend at one of my bootcamps with my great friend and fellow dating coach, John Keegan. Now, a lot of people don’t get what we do here, which is NOT teaching guys how to lie to get women into bed.

We teach guys how to be moral in their relationships. How to have a moral compass. And I’ve gotta tell you, that’s something that’s really lacking in today’s culture.

So… are YOU lacking a moral compass? Find out here. Subscribe to, rate and share this episode in your podcatcher of choice, learn more about John at https://theawakenedlifestyle.com/, and come back tomorrow for more radical self-help that doesn’t suck.

Episode 122: The One Word That Will Make Any Woman Implode… But Why???

Subscribe & Listen:

Everyone should know this… there’s one word. On SPECIFIC word that makes women implode. And we won’t say it here, but everyone knows what it is. You can NEVER call a woman this word…

But what my guest John Keegan and I want to ask is, why? Of course you should try never to insult or hurt anyone, but what makes THIS word so special?

Well, help us figure it out on today’s reality check. Subscribe to, rate and share us with your friends, and check out John’s website at https://theawakenedlifestyle.com/

Episode 121: How to Troubleshoot Your Idiot List

Subscribe & Listen:

I’m going to challenge you right now with an assumption. There are people in your life you CAN’T STAND. They’re idiots. They never listen.

But why? Why would you waste time with people who are so beneath you? It could be a friend, it could be your ex, it could even be your parents. And I’m going to show you today how to troubleshoot this “idiot list” and eliminate these people and the energy they bring into your life.

Episode 120: Negative 254 Degrees

Subscribe & Listen:

Today we’ve got a short reality check as I’m getting ready to head off to NYC… but we’ve still managed to pack not one but TWO special guests. The first is my friend Matt from Coast Cryo, a cryotherapy sauna here in LA.

And the other is… the cutest little girl in the world, my daughter. And the three of us are going to touch on a whole range of topics, from the benefits of cryotherapy to the exact number of dogs my daughter wants to have 🙂

So join us today, subscribe to and rate us in your podcatcher of choice, and if you’re here on the West Coast, be sure to check out Coast Cryo at http://coastcryo.com/

Episode 119: Fur Love is Not Real Love

Subscribe & Listen:

Last night, as I was watching the firework spectacle, I saw something interesting. And kind of sad. And it’s basically this: women and men more attached to their dogs, their furry little children, than to other people.

Fur love is not REAL love, people. And right now, I’m going to make a radical suggestion: you use it as a substitute for real love because it’s easier. It doesn’t require real vulnerability. And that’s why it’s not real love.

Episode 118: The Me-Me-Me Craze

Subscribe & Listen:

Happy 4th of July. Now, before you go out and celebrate and have a good time today, let me piss you off for 10 minutes. Because we need to talk, America. We need to talk about this “me-me-me” craze that’s sweeping the nation.

We’re so self-absorbed right now. Every aspect of our lives is just me-me-me. And we’re teaching the next generation to be all me-me-me.

So today I’m going to challenge you to really look at your own self-absorption. Download, rate and share this podcast, subscribe in your podcatcher of choice, and come on back tomorrow for more radical self-help that doesn’t suck.

Episode 117: How Not to Die

Subscribe & Listen:

It’s a simple question: How do I NOT die? How do I live the healthiest life possible? Well, that’s what we’re going to answer right now. I’m in the studio with Dr. Michael Greger, author of the book “How Not to Die.”

And we’re diving deep today into health, fitness, and nutrition. We’re going to talk about the huge nutrition myths and misunderstandings in today’s culture, and how to really eat to live a healthy life.

Episode 116: Do You Suffer From “When I” Disease?

Subscribe & Listen:

“When I…” You know “When I” disease? You suffer from it when you say, “When I’m 40, I’m going to do this…”

Well, why not now? Why not live your life? Because as you live your life, you’re able to learn lessons. Everything that’s put in your life is put there for a reason, and the reason is to teach you a lesson you need to learn.

Join me today as I interview a young man going through his adult adolescence and we talk about the “When I’s.” Rate us, share us and subscribe to us in your podcatcher of choice, and come on back tomorrow for more radical self-help that doesn’t suck.
