Online Nutrition Coach Jonathan McLernon from the Between the Before and After Podcast joins us today.

I asked a Nutritionist so you don't have to or in the case that you don't know one. Nutrition is something men like to avoid discussing unless they are just big into the gym. Jonathan McLernon lost over 100lbs and has kept it off. Now he helps other people by using psychology of behavior change with the science of metabolism and the compassion of human connection, to create life-changing transformations.

Jonathan is the real deal, he understands the struggle and doesn't pretend to be perfect. He is a Fallible Man and wants to help you be health, happy and your best self. No lies, no fake promises, no B.S. Time to get healthy!

Are you in the dating game? It is a difficult time to be dating, which sucks as dating is already complicated. I had a deep dive with Men's Relationship coach Kimberly Hill about dating advice in the current age.

She helps us navigate "me too" , MGTOW, online dating, what women want and just how to approach women. We talk about what most men need to work on to feel good and confident in the romantic landscape and so much more.

I bring you guys experts as often as I can, after 20 years of marriage I would be lost trying to give dating advice, but Kimberly has it on lock for you guys! She is a dating coach for men out of Vancouver BC, but she works with men all over and also does some relationship coaching for those of us who have been hitched for a while. I had a lot of fun and Kim has some dating secrets that you could use to find a good relationship.

This isn't hit it and quit it advice, this is for men who are looking to build real relationships!

With all that's going on in the world, like a lot of people I have generally stayed out of politics in this show. However men should be involved with politics, especially at a local level where you can affect change.

I sat down with political commentator Gene Valentino to discuss why men need to get involved. You may not know Gene by name but In 1988, Gene obtained one of the first rural cellular telephone company licenses from the FCC and became President of Cellular One in central California.

Maybe you are familiar with Jet Pay, Valentino Holdings or a few other businesses. You might be a horror movie junkie and have seen "Minutes to Midnight: that he produced.

Gene is an Adjunct Professor teaching business at Pensacola State college and on the board of directors for Verijet for all of us that dream of commuting with personal aircraft.

Maybe you have never met him and I must say after meeting him, that is a shame. We discuss Congressman Marjorie Taylor Greene, the omnibus bill snaking through congress, Nancy Palosi and why you should get involved at a local level.

After 8 years as a county commissioner Gene has some incredible insights!

What is an alpha male? Is it a real thing or is it non-sense and what makes a male “Alpha” This garbage discussion is doing as much to damage men as the “toxic masculinity” bullshit that has been spewed.

I was watching a video recently by one of my favorite YouTubers Michelle McDaniel over on “My Thoughts will Probably Offend You” called “Learning what an Alpha Male is from the "Real Men" of the Internet” and she had some really great points.

I wanted to dig into this a little bit and touch on some of her questions because they deserve some answers, we all do.

There are so many people screaming about "Alpha" male status, but what are they selling and is it legit? Do Alpha males exist? Are there really Alphas, betas, sigmas and whatever other term they are trying to sell?

Is it something you can obtain by listening to someone rant and espouse tales of times gone by when "men were men"; what does that even mean?

My thoughts will probably offend you but We need answers. What are real men. What does it mean to be a real man?

Here is Michelle's video if you want to know what inspired this episode. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AZTzl90OKag&t=54s

We are talking with Coach, creator and jack of all trades Eric Teplitz. We are going to spend some time digging into Journaling, Change and personal development!

I finally talked to a guy who gets journaling and is able to explain the appeal and make a pretty decent case for it. Eric explains how to journal for self growth and why he thinks it is a net positive for anyone as well as how to journal for beginners.

We discussed how Environment is Stronger than Discipline, how progress is non-linier, contribution to the world and 3 things you can do right now to start moving in a positive direction for personal development.

Change is difficult but it is the only constant in life, Eric has tried a lot of things and embraced change. He shares stories about training for an iron man and triathlons and we swap a few stories about those kind of events.
