Mark McDonald is a LA-based psychologist who has been on my show previously, in which he chatted about perfectly politically incorrect ideas like
Fear is an addiction
Mark recently released a new book, Freedom From Fear, which was the underlying theme of our latest conversation on my TNT show.
Just like a drug, fear can be compulsive, and its insidious affects are all around us. In Freedom From Fear, McDonald presents an indispensable twelve-step guide to personal and national recovery. His precepts include simple but practical steps like “face the mirror,” “don’t be a sheep,” “choose reality,” “reject narcissism,” “think for yourself,” “embrace adulthood,” “pay attention,” and “embrace fearless leadership.”
Don’t be a weakling
I’ve often critiqued the “grievance industry” which, in my view, is not only a hinderance to progress, but it’s defeatist in its lack of objective. Being a winner means not being a loser. And as Mark says, no woman wants to have sex with a pathetic man.
A man wearing a mask and standing in line to receive a toxic injection, is pathetic. (Yes, a woman doing the same thing is equally pathetic.)
Nobody likes a weakling who is addicted to fear.
Our TNT conversation
Mark’s discussion with me is absolutely hilarious and based. We covered masculinity, fear, and gentlemen’s clubs.
Our podcast conversation
The following conversation occurred a day after the TNT one, and is even funnier and more based.
