  • Makes me want to be a better human

    You don’t have to agree 100% with everything Stef says, but his ability to lead a life based on principles which he examines over and over gives a great guideline for how we can be better humans by controlling the things we can control and holding ourselves accountable for our life decisions.

  • Honesty about breakdown of the nuclear family

    They will label anyone a pejorative today that advocates for any traditionalism and honor. Stefan is more culturally Christian and more accurate about moral truths than many church attendees today. Telling the sad truth about the main reasons for the collapse of empires.

  • Disgusting & completely ignorang

    The sheer amount of misogyny, ignorance, and thinking you have an interesting opinion when it is actually idiotic slop, is unbearable after 1 episode. You should get a life and a clue and attempt to educate yourselves - but definitely get off a podcast.

  • Listen to The Housemaid episode

    It was bad take after bad take after bad take. He acknowledges this is a revenge fantasy yet cannot separate it from the way he sees feminism in 2025. Genuinely concerned for his wife and daughter

    It seems only 25 episodes are stored on apple podcasts at a time. Stefan could we have all episodes loaded? It would be nice to re-listen to past episodes.

6414 Respect Male Bodies! Listener Questions
Q: Why do you think collaborations with high-profile figures or channels are driven by numbers rather than integrity or truth?
