James Smith is an author, podcaster, online trainer and not a life coach.
Many men and women no longer see each other as on the same team with a common goal, and instead view them as adversaries who don't play well together. But given that humanity has continued successfully for hundreds of thousands of years, this can't be how it's always been, so why is it now?
Expect to learn why James got in trouble for saying "she's a 10 but...", how convenient activities often get mistaken for enjoyable activities, whether guys can look at girls in the gym or not, whether Elon Musk not buying Twitter is a huge win for him, whether TikTok is a dangerous influence, what you can learn about yourself from the tasks you're avoiding, why people fearing ignorance is making them stupid and much more...

0:00.0 | Bonjour everybody, welcome back to the show. |
0:03.1 | My guest today is James Smith. |
0:05.1 | He's an author, podcaster, online trainer and not a life coach. |
0:09.5 | Many men and women no longer see each other as on the same team with a common goal, and |
0:14.7 | instead view themselves as adversaries who don't play well together. |
0:19.2 | But given that humanity has continued successfully for hundreds of thousands of years, this can't |
0:25.0 | be how it's always been. |
0:26.9 | So why is it now? |
0:28.3 | Expect to learn how James got in trouble for saying she's a ten, but how convenient |
0:33.0 | activities often get mistaken for enjoyable ones, whether guys can look at girls in the |
0:37.6 | gym or not, whether Elon Musk not buying Twitter is a huge win, whether TikTok is a dangerous |
0:42.9 | influence, what you can learn about yourself from the tasks you're avoiding, why people |
0:47.3 | fearing ignorance is making them stupid, and much more. |
0:52.3 | I like talking to James. |
0:53.6 | He has got a lot of insights into gym floor culture and most of his audience is female. |
0:59.7 | So he also provides a different insight. |
1:03.0 | I think a guy that is very, very familiar with what women feel about themselves, about their |
1:08.6 | bodies, about what they want from life, giving insights from a male perspective is not something |
1:13.6 | that you come across all the time. |
1:15.6 | So I very much appreciate James for coming on and he will be back on later this year to |
1:19.2 | talk about his new book, How to Be Confident. |
1:21.4 | So stay tuned for that. |
