Co-Host Stephen Edwards (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/edwards) What's going on here when it comes to men, women and our sexual attitudes toward each other? (I say that like it's a bad thing?) My first-time guest is Dr. Stephen Edwards, a PhD in spiritual counseling and international speaker. He's also the author of The Venus Fly Trap: Sex, Lies And Repercussions. According to Stephen, we're all on a 'spectrum of insanity', whether we realize it or not. So first off, what does a Venus flytrap have to do with the silent sexual revolution? After all, that's a rough mental image. What are...

===Snippets From The Summit=== Granted, it's easy to allow ourselves to believe all women are atrocious and we're better off simply avoiding them. And often we can have legitimate reasons for thinking and feeling that way. But let's face it, men who've slipped into that mindset find themselves as miserable as Feminists who become man-haters. The good news is there's a clear mindset shift you can make that will not only transform how you view women, it'll actually change how they perceive you as well. It may feel difficult at first, but there is no more natural way to go...it's even embedded in...

Co-Host Catherine Auman (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/catherine) My first-time guest Catherine Auman talks frequently about "tantric dating", which involves dating with all five senses. As men, modern technology might very well have led us to focus primarily on seeing and hearing, forsaking the other three senses. So first off, what is Tantric Dating about in general? Why is being "friends first" so common in other cultures, but basically the relationship kiss of death here in the West? What do dogs know that humans don't, when it comes to Tantra? We hear all the time how we as men are...

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === It used to be that the biggest hurdle between men and a successful dating life was basically approach anxiety. After all, you can't have any women in your life if you don't meet them first. But nowadays, there's ONE obstacle that looms even larger. It's so simple and basic that it might not even have occurred to you. But make no mistake, it's what keeps more men than ever from meeting women, let alone attracting them. The first step is recognizing what's going on. The next step--which is thankfully pretty basic--will make it feel as if women love and adore you...

Co-Host Alex Allman (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/howtoman) My long-time friend and returning guest Alex Allman came up with a fascinating topic that deserves every man's attention. What's up with women LIKING us, but not exactly LOVING us? I mean, the first thing we might think of is lukewarm first dates and tepid text conversations. But Alex jumps right in with the reality of how even people who are in marriages together can suffer through this phenomenon. How in the world does THAT happen? Well, as it turns out it's not always about someone having "settled". In fact, it might not even be...

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === We all know the "underground society" of pickups artists is LONG gone. Or is it? Some say they simply moved their sentiments over to the #MGTOW or "red-pilled" movements, hoping to fly under the radar with a rebrand. But I'm not so sure about that. After all, lately I've been hit with requests to pitch you guys on "new" products that look and feel exactly like something out of 2008. Could it be there's a belief out there that the new generation of guys will respond to exactly what the last generation did? Well, I personally believe a LOT has changed out there,...

Co-Host Cheryl Maida (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/cheryl) How is Gen Z influencing dating and relating going forward? Regardless of who you are, this matters because it's going to affect YOUR relationships with women from now on. My first-time guest Cheryl Maida from matchmaking.com is here to talk about all the current trends, and what we can expect in months and years to come. First off, are dating apps truly dead...and if so, what's next? And whatever happened to "hookup culture"? We haven't heard anything on that in ages. Are people really less interested in sex than ever, or just more...

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === What if you have absolutely no problem with women feeling safe around you, but somehow they're still not sexually attracted. Frustrating, right? Well, as it turns out, even though "making a woman feel safe and comfortable" is the linchpin of masculine/feminine polarity, there's a key component of that trait that makes women crazy over you as opposed to parking you in the dreaded "Just Be Harmless Zone". Find out exactly how that works--and what Rottweilers have to do with it--in this week's brief but powerful Snippet From The Summit. Have the newest,...

Co-Host Shlomo Slatkin (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/shlomo) My first-time guest is Shlomo Slatkin. In addition to being a Rabbi in Baltimore, he's also the founder of the Marriage Restoration Project. He has a lot of valuable insights into modern manhood, our relationships with women and the missing rite of passage from boyhood to manhood in today's culture. First off, Shlomo is a man who walks the talk. He and his wife have a great relationship and are raising a beautiful family. In his daily life, Shlomo works with men who want to achieve a closer connection with the woman in their lives...

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === Have you ever developed some sort of weird medical symptom and made the mistake of going to WebMD to see what's wrong with you? You know exactly what happens. You end up sure you're dying of some horrible disease...every time. But meanwhile, we as men will also read surveys and studies about women and attraction that leave us convinced we are exactly the opposite of who women want. Gentlemen, this has to stop. The "masses" out there will NEVER be attractive, but who YOU are as an individual is 100% under your control, which is a very good thing. Have the...

As men, modern technology might very well have led us to focus primarily on seeing and hearing, forsaking the other three senses. So first off, what is Tantric Dating about in general? Why is being "friends first" so common in other cultures, but basically the relationship kiss of death here in the West? What do dogs know that humans don't, when it comes to Tantra? We hear all the time how we as men are "visual" when it comes to women and attraction. Is that actually all there is to it, though? And if Tantra is all about connection, could social media and the "pandemic of loneliness" explain much of the disconnect between our five senses and our dating lives? Is it true that today's dating world actually discourages people from meeting and having interesting conversations? How weird is that? How is being "spoiled for choice", at least ostensibly, ruining our ability to discern who's right for us? What's another way to think about how taste matters in the dating world, above and beyond the obvious? And how can we as men become more sensual in general, to the delight of women? What are the ways most "normal" guys are completely missing out on the best parts of sex by rushing things? Why did we all miss the point of the movie 9 1/2 Weeks in the '80s? But then again, what do young adults know about sex that we tend to, well...forget as we get older and more jaded? Finally, is there any room in this discussion for a potential sixth sense? The answer may surprise you...and propel your sex life to new heights. Get in on the new VAMANOS AI at https://mountaintoppodcast.com/vamanos
