ROBERT GLOVER","description":"Dr. Robert Glover is the author of the famous and highly acclaimed canonical work of the Renaissance, \u201cNo More Mr. Nice Guy.\u201d It\u2019s the book that virtually every man in this movement agrees is a classic and is rightfully called the \u201cgateway drug to the red pill.\u201d\nIt\u2019s also a harsh but loving mirror which shows men why their beliefs about the world are wrong, why their actions in their lives don\u2019t produce the results they want, and why there\u2019s a deep pool of rage buried within them that often comes out sideways.\nThough Dr. Glover has a doctorate, his book has its power not because he's a scientist or scholar, but because it's drawn from his own journey from being a nice guy, to becoming an authentic, integrated man.\nBut because Dr. Glover does have a doctorate, there's a thoroughness to it, as well, dealing with how being a nice guy affects men's quality of life, in everything from work to sex to intimate relationships, friendships and more.\nAnd naturally no podcast about this worldwide movement of men would be complete without speaking to a man who drafted a canonical work of it.\nIn our extended conversation we discussed:\nHow men today are seeking tribes, and where they look: including the pickup community, martial arts, churches, men's groups, and more\nThe danger of purity tests and fundamentalism in the men's movement, because it creates unnecessary divisions between brothers\nHow the distractions in our environment rob us of our connection to our inner emotional state, and why we need to take time for ourselves\nHow women aren't the source of the love we need, and can't ever make us feel complete\nAnd finally, an incredible discussion about the higher and lower natures of the masculine and feminine, and how that relates to the famous Serenity prayer, a lesson that I'll never forget\nEven if you've never been a nice guy, Dr. Glover's book and ongoing work still provide valuable guidance about understanding oneself, standing up and speaking up, in a world where men are increasingly shamed into silence.\nIt's refreshing to hear a man speak his truth quietly, clearly, and confidently. And I hope in his wisdom all the men listening, of any age and background, will come together in a spirit of brotherhood, unity, and strength.\nLINKS:\nVisit Dr. Glover\u2019s website (link)\nFollow Dr. Glover on Twitter (link) and YouTube (link)\nBuy \u201cNo More Mr. Nice Guy\u201d on Amazon (link)\nJohn Wineland (link)\nDavid Deida (link)\nMankind Project (link)\nDavid DeAngelo (link)\nCheck out my website at https://renofmen.com\nConnect with us on Instagram and Twitter","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/077d5416-18ed-4332-a23d-bbdca2b970df/j_NeNa4rnItxJ1OYds7sRGv3.jpg"}
