Increasing testosterone naturally should be the first step on your journey to more optimal levels of testosterone. In this episode I share some of the supplements and lifestyle changes that may help.

Testosterone. Every man needs it and the average man is short on supply. How do we increase it and what about Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT)?

I've been fairly absent from the scene since the last podcast drop in July of 2023. In this episode, I catch you guys up to what's been going on in my world and some thoughts on the future of Wolf & Iron.

There are a lot of books on entrepreneurship, marriage, and raising kids. In fact, you’re likely to gain some much needed wisdom on any of these subjects just by being with and observing people who are in that season of life. However, when it comes to the second half of life, let’s say 40 onward, it can feel pretty lonely. My guest today is Chris Bruno and he’s the author of Sage: A Man's Guide Into His Second Passage. Chris brings focus into the oftentimes nebulous second stage of a man’s life. In our conversation we talk about mid-life crises, reconnecting with our boyhood as we grow older, and avoiding the pitfalls so many men fall into as they begin to realize their youth is a thing of the past.    

In this episode I share my experience of one year as a student of Krav Maga, the Israeli Self-Defense system taught all over the world to Special Forces, military, and individuals like myself.

The goal of SupaWash! was pretty straight-forward. I knew the final product needed to do the following: Leave your skin feeling conditioned Make your beard and hair feel soft and manageable Fight dandruff and beardruff Be free from coconut and coconut derived ingredients Every ingredient should be relatively common and obviously safe & healthy Be cool! I wanted to have a funky theme and some retro styling to play on in the marketing and future releases.

There are two complimentary natures in manhood; the warrior and the poet. Today, the man who can simultaneously appreciate the finer arts and yet stand strong in adversity seems to be a rare breed. My guest on this episode, John Lovell, calls men to this noble undertaking and shares his guiding principles in his book The Warrior Poet Way. This is the book I wish I had when I was in my early 30s and starting my journey of manhood in earnest. The Warrior Poet Way keeps the reader engaged while also imparting much needed wisdom in a man-to-man, relatable manner. Listen to the episode, then get a copy of the book. You’ll be a better man for it.

Vivek Ramaswamy is a presidential candidate worth listening to. He has the right ideas for America and is pushing for a dismantling of many agencies, including the FBI and CIA, and believes that America needs a common identity. But, he's also Hindu.

Eugen Sandow is a name most men ought to know. He also had a physique people believed could only be achieved in the imagination or sculpted in marble. He's known as the father of bodybuilding, but in this episode I don't want to focus on how jacked he was. Rather, I use his story to drive home a deeper point. One that we've been missing for most of our lives.

AI is here and it's not going anywhere. With it come a lot of concerns, particularly about jobs in a world of automation. In this episode I share some thoughts, or perhaps predictions, about what jobs will go, when they will go, and which ones will be safe for a while.

It's far too easy to get caught up in the latest scandal, political issue, hot topic, etc. It's also easy to go down the rabbit hole of self-improvement, learning more than we are actually doing. We can begin to feel that the path to success is too difficult because of all the nuances we've put into our heads instead of focusing on the practical...the basics.

As our other business, Rustic and Main, can attest people are still getting married. Nearly 2 million weddings happen in the US every year. However, the median age for marriage is now 30 and the divorce rate is still very high at nearly 40%. What people want from marriage and what they bring to a marriage have changed dramatically in the last 25+ years.
