  • Guys please don’t listen to it

    Some episodes are painful to hear. Orion justifies men poor behaviors. I’m open minded and always listen to various opinions, but this podcast is probably causing more harm than good to men-women relationships

  • 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?
There is no universal standard of attractiveness, and self-improvement and confidence are key. Women are drawn to authenticity and genuine self-expression.
Deep Dive 008: Dr. Robert Glover (authenticity, attraction, and nice guy syndrome)

A nice guy is someone who doesn't believe he is okay as he is, often basing his self-worth on the approval of others, which can lead to unhealthy relationship dynamics.
