Today I'm joined by my good friend Adam Sosnick, money strategist, connector, entrepreneur, Adam Sosnick ( IG: @Sostalksmoney ) is the host of Soscast on @vtsoscast . He's also the co-host of the Patrick Bet-David Podcast on @VALUETAINMENT We talk about the complicated relationship Adam had with his father, the lessons that shaped his character, and how everything we publish online becomes part of the legacy our future families will inherit. We also discuss how social media has changed fame, dating, attraction, and the way men and women view each other.

We also get into his friendship with SNL's Marcello Hernández, his disagreement with Patrick Bet-David about modern dating, his experiences in Israel, and why some of life's biggest disappointments can lead to your greatest opportunities. 00:00:00 - Was that you on stage? 00:01:16 - Talk about your dad's influence? 00:05:33 - What would your dad think of you now? 00:05:51 - What would he think of what you're doing? 00:07:01 - Did your dad encourage stand-up comedy? 00:08:57 - Do you know Jerry Jones? 00:13:59 - Is that good or bad for society? 00:17:39 - Are you aware Iran is being bombed daily? 00:17:51 - Would aliens even make the news anymore? 00:25:25 - Why not listen to women? 00:43:49 - Why'd you get serious at 27? 00:43:56 - How does the finance business model work? 00:47:56 - Does this only work with term life? 00:53:15 - How does buying policies work for you? 00:55:19 - How do you get paid by insurance companies? 00:57:18 - Can you lose on these policies? 01:11:02 - What if that one girl gave you a shot? 01:14:22 - What happened with you and Pat on air? 01:17:35 - How to keep a happy relationship? 01:17:45 - How to get a girl out of your league? 01:26:33 - What's dating in Miami like? 01:31:27 - Quick thoughts on public figures? 01:33:56 - What question do you wish you were asked? 01:35:33 - What's an uncomfortable truth for you? 01:39:00 - Do you discuss Israel? 01:39:24 - Why is Israel still in Gaza? 01:43:03 - What's misunderstood about you? ———————————————————— 🔥 Steal my blueprint for attracting signed models and attending VIP-only events in 21 days...

On today's episode, I'm joined by Norman Santos, a Las Vegas nightlife promoter with years of experience at XS Nightclub and Encore Beach Club. Norman began promoting events in Hawaii at just 19 years old before moving to Las Vegas to pursue a career in one of the world's most competitive nightlife scenes.

Evolutionary psychologist Steve Stewart-Williams joins me this episode for a wide-ranging discussion on what makes humans tick — biological sex differences, the mechanics of attraction, how relationships and personality take shape, and the contested science that tries to explain all of it. Steve teaches psychology at the University of Nottingham Malaysia and has written Darwin, God and the Meaning of Life, The Ape That Understood the Universe, and most recently A Billion Years of Sex Differences. Together we get into why his field draws so much political heat and misreading from every direction. Steve breaks down how traditionalists and progressives each manage to distort what the research actually shows, why acknowledging biology's role isn't a backdoor argument for old-fashioned gender roles, and why explaining how human nature works says nothing about how a society ought to be organized. 00:00 Intro 07:55 Are Sex Differences Biological or Cultural? 14:23 How Steve Discovered Evolutionary Psychology 17:48 Why Male and Female Mating Strategies Differ 21:18 Mate-Choice Copying and the Wedding Ring Effect 29:35 The Gender-Equality Paradox 36:11 Male and Female Personality Differences 38:15 Parenthood, Depression and Modern Life 45:06 Male Suicide, Therapy and Mental Health 50:05 Psychology's Replication Crisis 56:29 Will Sex Differences Ever Disappear? 1:01:54 The Largest Psychological Sex Differences 1:06:14 Patriarchy and Social-Media Narratives About Men 1:16:25 Prenatal Testosterone and Twin Studies 1:25:27 Sexual Orientation, Crime and Gender Differences 1:27:52 Casual Sex and Sexual Overperception 1:36:22 Rival Derogation and Mate Selection 1:41:06 Dating Apps, Hypergamy and Attraction 1:46:06 Why Humor, Charisma and Competence Are Attractive 1:52:25 Evolutionary Theories That Were Proven Wrong 1:53:49 Wokeness and Conformity in Academia 2:03:01 The Argument Against Innate Sex Differences 2:05:32 A Billion Years of Sex Differences 2:06:46 Using AI for Research and Debate Preparation 2:14:14 Final Dating Insights and Closing Thoughts ———————————————————— 🔥 Steal my blueprint for attracting signed models and attending VIP-only events in 21 days...

The topic of matchmaking agencies, now often calling themselves "matchmakers," Michael is critical of their approach. He highlights that most matchmakers are women who prioritize money as the main attribute when pairing men and women, which leads to transactional relationships, undermining genuine desire. He insists that leading with money makes it impossible to generate authentic attraction. This transactional nature blurs the lines between matchmaking and escort services, with some escorts reportedly using matchmakers as a softer version of prostitution.   00:00 - Navigating Modern Dating Challenges and "Shielding" from Stimulus 03:21 - The Reality of Modern Matchmaking and the Failure of Financial Leading 07:44 - The "Male Upgrade Struggle" vs. the "Female Glow Up" 11:47 - The Limitation of Dating Advice from Different Lived Experiences 14:55 - The Universal Male Struggle and Global Community Diversity 17:26 - Insights from Club Promotion: Social Proof and Pre-Selection 20:08 - Data vs. Perspective: Why You Shouldn't Ask Women for Dating Advice 21:42 - Proven Studies on Attraction: The Cheerleader Effect and Female Approval 24:45 - Building Social Circles and the Importance of High-Status Networking 38:12 - High-Value Lifestyles: Impact of Personal Branding and Aesthetics 52:30 - Overcoming Limiting Beliefs and the Psychology of Success 01:05:15 - Strategic Networking: How to Enter Elite Social Circles 01:22:40 - The Long-Term Impact of Self-Improvement and Community Support 01:30:31 - Final Thoughts and Episode Wrap-Up ———————————————————— 🔥 Steal my blueprint for attracting signed models and attending VIP-only events in 21 days...

In this episode, I critique the "Blackpill" as a comfortable blanket of victimhood for men, contrasting genetics with the learnable skill set of social circle game. I emphasize that women are attracted to pre-selection and status, arguing that showing other women choose you provides access to elite networks that cold approach cannot reach.
