  • Ad Assault

    This podcast has a lot of insight and for the most part I appreciate Orion’s knowledge and advice. But, good god. As someone who works in podcast and radio production, the dynamic ad insertion is extremely disruptive and overkill. The pod is typically no more than 15 minutes. But, Orion is interrupted mid-sentence MULTIPLE times. Pre-roll. MAAAYBE a mid-roll. Post-roll. That’s all you need on such a short episode.

Episode 559: She can cry (how to deal with an emotional woman)
Q: What does it mean to cultivate your dad sense?
It means quickly judging a situation to determine whether action is necessary or if it's best to do nothing when a woman cries.
Deep Dive 008: Dr. Robert Glover (authenticity, attraction, and nice guy syndrome)
Q: What if you're unattractive to women just as you are?

Deep Dive 008: Dr. Robert Glover (authenticity, attraction, and nice guy syndrome)
