In this powerful episode of The Rebuilt Man Podcast, Coach Frank exposes the hard truth most men never hear:

 

Porn blockers don’t free men — they keep them dependent.

 

Apps like Covenant Eyes, BlockerX, and Canopy don’t fix the underlying issue, and for many men they actually make addiction worse. Instead of building self-leadership and discipline, blockers reinforce surveillance, loophole hunting, and emotional avoidance.

 

Frank breaks down the nine undeniable reasons why porn blockers fail long-term, and reveals the path to true freedom — one rooted in identity, purpose, and personal leadership rather than restriction.

 

If you’ve ever used a blocker and still relapsed… this episode will finally make it make sense.

 

Expect to Learn

  • Why porn blockers attack symptoms instead of the root problem

 

  • How blockers create dependence instead of discipline

 

  • Why “forbidden fruit dopamine” makes porn even more tempting

 

  • How accountability becomes policing instead of growth

 

  • Why you can’t outsource self-control and still expect to feel powerful

 

  • How loophole hunting becomes a dopamine addiction of its own

 

  • How blockers give the illusion of progress without transformation

 

  • Why discomfort and emotions always beat external restrictions

 

  • What actually makes porn become unnecessary

 

Key Takeaways

  • Porn blockers create more dependence, not more freedom

 

  • Real change is driven by identity, self-leadership, and discipline

 

  • Freedom comes from mastering urges, not restricting access

 

  • You don’t need a stronger blocker — you need a stronger you
