Feminism succeeded in making men and women forget how to talk to each other, and instead taught us to talk past each other. This process has been evolving since World War 2, when some of our grandmothers and great-grandmothers went to work in the factories, and decided (wrongly) that they don’t need men. That’s a lie from the pits of hell. Women do need men, and the longer they pretend they don’t, the worse it’ll be for them. But men and women are being reborn in Christ, together, and learning how to speak to one another again. This conversation between me and Anneliese from Feminine not Feminist is an example. In our conversation we discussed: The CS Lewis “Space Trilogy” Alison Armstrong’s “The Queen’s Code” Mom Culture and Resentment Was Eve Controlling Adam? Feminism and Black Lives Matter The Power of Women’s Smile Men, Women, and Forgiveness Thanks to The Bottle & Bean in Chandler, Arizona. # WATCH MY DOCUSERIES OVERVIEW # https://renofmen.com/series Thank you. # CONNECT WITH ANNELIESE # https://www.instagram.com/feminine_not_feminist/ https://linktr.ee/femininenotfeminist # DIGITAL CONFERENCE - EDITION 2 # "The Proverbs 31 Woman" with: Alison Armstrong, Feminine Not Feminist, Dear Sister, Solie Olie, Bernadine Bluntly, Isa Ryan, Martine De Luna.

RENAISSANCE OF MEN DOCUMENTARY OVERVIEW: https://youtu.be/6RGDFEUoLpU -- My guest this week is Chase aka SovereignBrah. You might not know his name, but you'll almost certainly recognize his face. Last year he was anon, until he appeared on the Whatever podcast, where he spoke truth to a panel of girls about their life choices and went mega viral. That led him onto Tim Pool's show, and on that show, Chase took a big risk, one of the biggest risks of all: preaching the Gospel to Tim and his audience of millions. That clip exploded. For all the godly men wondering, "Who would I be if it were my turn on the stage?" I pray Chase provides you an example of who I think we'd all like to be, and work to become. In our conversation we discussed: Chase's background and ride to stardom God humbling the proud Physical strength and spiritual strength The Alpha Male vs. Incel False Dichotomy Righteous Ambition and Spiritual Warfare Our testimonies, and Chase's story of his transformation in Christ CONNECT WITH CHASE https://twitter.com/sovereignbrah Original Whatever Podcast Appearance Tim Pool Podcast Appearance - MENTIONED IN THIS PODCAST https://twitter.com/ChivalryGuild "More Than A Carpenter" - Josh McDowell "They Sold Their Souls for Rock and Roll" - Good Fight Ministries Chuck Missler Lecture "Cosmic Codes" - DIGITAL CONFERENCE - EDITION 2 "The Proverbs 31 Woman" with: Alison Armstrong, Feminine Not Feminist, Dear Sister, Solie Olie, Bernadine Bluntly, Isa Ryan, Martine De Luna: Get tickets: http://renofmen.com/conference  - SPONSOR - REFORMATION COFFEE Hand-roasted in small batches within two days of your order, from a Reformed pastor in Springfield, Missouri with 15 years of roasting experience. http://reformationcoffee.com Entercode SUBFREE to get a free bag with a new monthly subscription.

Arthur Dayne hosts the podcast and Instagram page, Blood and Rain, and leads the Anti-Fragile Fitness online community. He's also a stage-trained actor, brooding and thoughtful writer, and an aspiring pro fighter whose physique looks like a dump truck with fists. In 2020 he felt the call to speak up on masculinity, fitness, philosophy, geopolitics, art, culture, literature, the SF-Oakland Bay Area, and, of course, fighting. He's since become a mentor and role model in his own right, leading the men of Anti-Fragile Fitness, forward into war. Cultural war, political war, religious war, a war on weakness, gravity, and the other man in the ring. In our conversation we discussed: The History of American Leadership Prior to WW1 Arthur's Personal Vision of Leadership The Origins of Anti-Fragile Fitness The Dynamics of Elite Theory F Scott Fitzgerald and the American downfall War CONNECT WITH ARTHUR https://www.instagram.com/blood_and_rain/ https://www.instagram.com/anti.fragile.fitness/ https://bloodandrain.substack.com/ https://bloodandrain.gumroad.com/ DIGITAL CONFERENCE - EDITION 2 "The Proverbs 31 Woman" with: Alison Armstrong, Feminine Not Feminist, Dear Sister, Solie Olie, Bernadine Bluntly, Isa Ryan, Martine De Luna: Get tickets: http://renofmen.com/conference  SPONSOR - REFORMATION COFFEE Hand-roasted in small batches within two days of your order, from a Reformed pastor in Springfield, Missouri with 15 years of roasting experience. http://reformationcoffee.com Entercode SUBFREE to get a free bag with a new monthly subscription.

**WARNING: ADULT LANGUAGE AND POLITICAL SATIRE** Cool Hand James is one of my favorite comedy creators on YouTube. He has a bloodhound's sense for grifters, and a laser-sharp targeting system on their scams. Plus a gravelly voice, a thick British accent, deadpan delivery, and a devil-may-care attitude for calling out creatures of the online ecosystem that monetize attention through manipulation. Yes, I laughed, a lot. But James also got me thinking about how easy it is to take people seriously online who shouldn't be taken seriously at all. In our conversation we discussed: His background, and how he became a comedic commentator The definition of grifting, and some examples like Tim Pool, Jack Murphy, Matt Walsh, and others The differences between American and UK politics Ukraine, Germany, and the EU Why he's a fan of trans women and not the 19th Amendment The story of how he got banned from YouTube for cyberbullying the president of the United States, Joe Biden.  CONNECT WITH COOL HAND JAMES https://www.youtube.com/@coolhandjames https://twitter.com/coolhandjames0 MEETUP WITH ANNELIESE / FEMININE NOT FEMINIST https://renofmen.com/meetup Saturday, April 15 3-6pm at the Bottle & Bean in Chandler, AZ SPONSOR - REFORMATION COFFEE Hand-roasted in small batches within two days of your order, from a Reformed pastor in Springfield, Missouri with 15 years of roasting experience. http://reformationcoffee.com Entercode SUBFREE to get a free bag with a new monthly subscription.

Jim Clair is a writer. That's it. He got his start in Direct Response copywriting, from which he's retired. Now he reads, thinks, writes, and works to surface the deceptions, flawed beliefs, and lies of the worlds through which he's traveled, on his way to a better, fuller life. He also bullies sciolists, talks better reading, and limns success Polytheism. And if you don't know what those things mean, you're about to find out. In our conversation, Jim and I discussed: Edward Gibbon's Classic "Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire" Why Reading is an Intimate Conversation Jim's Powerful Journey of Transformation Calling out Gurus and Success Polytheists The Limitations of ChatGPT vs. Human Writing The Process of Learning and Unlearning Men Cultivating Taste and Character MENTIONED IN THIS PODCAST "The War of the World" - Niall Ferguson "Classical English Style" - Ward Farnsworth "How To Read A Book" - Mortimer Adler "The Pleasures of Reading In An Age of Distraction" - Alan Jacobs "The Big Sleep" - Raymond Chandler "The Boron Letters" - Gary Halbert "Reflections on the Revolution in France" - Edmund Burke CONNECT WITH JIM https://twitter.com/findjimclair https://jimclair.com/ SPONSOR - REFORMATION COFFEE Hand-roasted in small batches within two days of your order, from a Reformed pastor in Springfield, Missouri with 15 years of roasting experience. http://reformationcoffee.com Entercode SUBFREE to get a free bag with a new monthly subscription.

Spencer Smith is the director and creator of the outstanding Third Adam series of documentaries, as well as a preacher, evangelist, husband, and father of four. Better than anyone I've seen, Spencer Smith has documented the existence of the so-called Divine Feminine and its efforts to infiltrate American culture and the American Evangelical Church. This is one of those things you have to see for yourself to understand. And once you do, you'll see it everywhere. And the spiritual warfare that we're living through will finally make sense. In our conversation, we discussed: The Third Adam Series and Its Origins; Spencer's Testimony; Spencer’s Overseas Missionary Work in Africa; Syncretism vs. Fundamentalism; The Divine Feminine's influence on the Church; Mystery Babylon and the False Holy Spirit; Why Santa Claus is a Calvinist.

Lawson Speaks Truth is a fiery and inspiring creator and community leader guiding men in biblical masculinity, fatherhood, and courtship. His content is challenging in a way that calls men to a higher standard. But he doesn't just call men to that higher standard, he works hard to embody it himself. He lives like his beliefs are true. His faith touches the ground, and roots itself firmly in the Earth, even against the opposition of an institution. In our conversation we discussed: Homebirth vs. Hospital Birth Men Being Emasculated By the System How To Lead Your Wife In Crisis Hardening Yourself Against the World Faithfulness in the Small Things Denominationalism, Sectarianism, and Eschatology The Two Sides of Christ and God.

Tomer Strolight is the editor in chief of Swan Bitcoin. We’re living in an era where war has been declared on money. Not on physical bills or bank accounts, but on money’s value through inflation. But there’s a weapon we can use in this war to protect the value of our hard-earned wealth: Bitcoin. There’s another aspect of it, as well. Bitcoin creates spiritual transformations in the men who understand it. A brighter world begins to take shape in our imaginations. And Tomer is one of the men who’s best at envisioning it. In our conversation we discussed: The Government vs. The Laws of the Universe Disposability and Inflation How Money Doesn't Need Government Bitcoin and Honor Pure Money and Peaceful Trade Why Bitcoin Is a Declaration of Peace Bitcoin Derangement Syndrome Bitcoin as Truth Machine.  PREVIOUS BITCOIN PODCASTS LaserHODL - January 2022 The Bitcoin Coach - January 2022 Aleks Svetski - August 2022 Listen to the Renaissance of Men on Fountain.fm MENTIONED IN THIS PODCAST "Bitcoin is Generational Wealth" "The Legendary Treasure of Satoshi Nakamoto" by Tomer Strolight "Why Bitcoin?" by Tomer Strolight "Bitcoiners Are Not Toxic" by Tomer Strolight CONNECT WITH TOMER https://twitter.com/tomerstrolight https://tomerstrolight.medium.com/ DIGITAL CONFERENCE SERIES An all-day event exploring six vital virtues of masculinity.
