August 07, 2018 10:30 - 1 hour - 57.1 MBBuilding a business is something on so many men's minds.

176: Be Legendary | Bert Sorin
July 31, 2018 10:30 - 1 hour - 45.2 MBLegendary is a term we hear often. But, when is the last time you actually thought about what it meant? Being legendary is about creating and living a life in which the principles and lessons you leave behind will last long after you're dead and gone.

FFN 118: What is Masculinity?
July 27, 2018 10:30 - 21 minutes - 25.3 MBThere's a lot of talk about "evolving the definition" of masculinity. What a shame since masculinity has driven much of the positive growth we enjoy in society today. Couple the desire to change what masculinity is with the confusion about what it is in the first place and it's easy to understand why there's so much misinformation about what masculinity is and, ultimately, what it means to be a man. www.orderofman.com/FFN118 Please leave us a rating and review!
175: Overcoming Drug Addiction | Court McGee
July 24, 2018 10:30 - 1 hour - 47.5 MBAddiction is something a lot of men are facing. Whether it's an addiction to alcohol, pornography, or drugs, it is something that can be overcome. Today, I am joined by UFC fighter, Court McGee, to talk about his battle with addiction and his ability over the past decade to fight and win this never-ending battle. We talk about his positive upbringing, how he used fighting as an outlet, the disease of addiction, his downward spiral, and how he has overcome his drug addiction. This one is a ...
FFN 117: How a Man Markets Himself
July 20, 2018 10:30 - 24 minutes - 28.4 MBLearning to market yourself is such a critical skill to develop. Whether you're working to secure a promotion, get a date, pick up new clients, or enlist your children in getting the chores done, your ability to market yourself effectively will spell the difference between success and failure.

174: Yoga Fitness for Men | Dean Pohlman
July 17, 2018 10:30 - 47 minutes - 32.6 MBLet's be honest, Yoga isn't a thought you'd immediately conjure up as manly. But, as I've recently discovered, participating in Yoga has significantly improved my performance, strength, and fitness all of which every man should be striving to improve. Today, I'm joined by repeat guest, Dean Pohlman, to talk about his new book. We cover why every man should consider incorporating Yoga in his fitness regimen, how flexibility improves strength, the unknown benefits for men of participating in...
FFN 116: How to Find a Hobby
July 13, 2018 10:30 - 19 minutes - 23 MBToday, we talk about the importance of finding a hobby and 5 strategies for finding hobbies that engage your mind and soul. It's easy to dismiss the notion of carving out time for ourselves considering all our responsibilities but it's imperative if we have any hope of becoming the men we're capable of becoming. www.orderofman.com/FFN116 Please leave us a rating and review!
173: The Man Diet | Chad Howse
July 10, 2018 10:30 - 45 minutes - 31.2 MBThere is no shortage of diet and nutrition advice out there. Most of it is hype, gimmicky, extremely biased, and untested/unfounded. It's no wonder though as most of us are after the quick fix to a lifetime of making bad food and exercise choices. Today, I am joined by Chad Howse, author of "The Man Diet," to talk about why these other diets fail and why a man's approach to what he eats should be relatively simple. We talk about the specific benefits of incorporating this style of nutritio...
FFN 115: The Path of Most Resistence
July 06, 2018 10:30 - 17 minutes - 20.7 MBThe path of most resistance. It's a term you'll rarely hear. That's because we, as men, are hard-wired to look for the path of least resistance. And, while there's merit to being efficient and effective in the quickest, most convenient way possible, it's not always in our best interest to take the easy route. Today, I share why. www.orderofman.com/FFN115 Please leave us a rating and review!
172: Work, Don't Whine | Brandon Lilly
July 03, 2018 10:30 - 1 hour - 47 MBEvery man, at some point, will lose his way. It's not really a question of "if" but a question of "when." When that day comes, the way you decided to face that adversity will spell the difference in you overcoming or succumbing. My guest today, powerlifter Brandon Lilly, is a man who has faced his fair share of obstacles but refuses to quit and always charges forward. We talk about the power of saying "no," why nothing ends with a period, how to develop more confidence, overcoming the need...
FFN 114: Fixing Your Marriage by Fixing Yourself
June 29, 2018 10:30 - 29 minutes - 35.1 MBThere are a lot of men who want to fix their marriages. While it sounds counterintuitive, the best way to fix your marriage is to fix yourself. Because, when you improve who you are as a man and how you're showing up as a husband, you're naturally going to produce a better marriage. Sure, a strong marriage is the result of the things that both you and your wife are doing but there's nothing you can do about her. That's why it's best to focus on the one thing you can control - yourself. He...
171: Leading From the Top | Lt. Col. Scott Mann
June 26, 2018 10:30 - 46 minutes - 32.2 MBEvery man will, at some point, be placed in a position of leadership, whether it's in the walls of his home, a new project at work, a promotion, ecclesiastical services, with friends, or simply leading himself. His ability to lead effectively will spell the difference between success and failure in any endeavor. Today, I am joined by retired Green Beret Lieutenant Colonel, Scott Mann to talk about how to be a strong leader. We talk about the importance of becoming a great storyteller, how ...
FFN 113: No Victims Here
June 22, 2018 10:30 - 21 minutes - 25.7 MBSo many men love to play the victim card. They believe everybody and everything is stacked against them. In reality, we know that's not true. Here's why people do it and 5 ways to avoid making yourself into a victim. www.orderofman.com/FFN113 Please leave us a rating and review!
Becoming a Minimalist | Joshua Becker
June 19, 2018 10:30 - 46 minutes - 32.2 MBEvery time you turn around, you're bombarded with a thousand ads, a million choices, and an endless supply of options and "opportunities." It's becoming increasingly difficult to manage the landscape of the ever-growing decisions that need to be made. Add to that our desire to be seen and perceived a certain way by people we may not even know or like, and it's easy to see why the disease of wanting more is becoming a real problem. My guest today, Joshua Becker, makes the case for why more ...
FFN 112: The Systematic Softening of Society
June 15, 2018 10:30 - 26 minutes - 31.7 MBSociety is becoming softer. Society is becoming weaker. This idea of softness is perpetuated by much of society, the school system, media, and entertainment and Hollywood. We do ourselves a huge disservice when we overlook the importance of being strong, tough, gritty, resilient, and all the things that we would traditionally think of when we think of how a man shows up in life. I'm not suggesting by any means that a man can't be loving, supportive, open, and vulnerable. Of course, he can ...
The Disciplined Pursuit of Less | Greg McKeown
June 12, 2018 10:30 - 53 minutes - 36.5 MBIn a world where everyone and everything is clamoring for your attention, it is becomingly increasingly difficult to focus on the vital few as opposed to the trivial many. My guest today, Greg McKeown, the New York Times Bestselling Author of Essentialism, makes the case for why less can actually be more. We talk about how to eliminate distractions, the criteria for measuring what task you should actually focus on, how to establish proper boundaries, and why every man should take on the di...
FFN 111: How to Command Respect
June 08, 2018 10:30 - 23 minutes - 27.5 MBI see so many men who don't have any level of respect for themselves let alone being able to command any respect from others. I was noticing the other day as I was walking to the post office, that there were people who wouldn't even look me in the eye. And, not only would they not look me in the eye, they were working hard to ensure that they didn't have to look me in the eye. When I shake people's hand, I get these limp fish handshakes. Those are just two small examples of the manifestation...
Forging Mental Toughness | Ryan Lange
June 05, 2018 10:30 - 43 minutes - 29.9 MBWe all know that we need to be mentally tough. There's no question of that. Yet, forging mental toughness seems to be one of the most elusive pursuits. All of us know how to develop physical toughness but rarely do we have any practices in place that will help us develop mental toughness. My guest today, Ryan Lange, is one of the most mentally tough men I know. It's amazing considering he's only 21 years old. I won't get into all that he's accomplished just yet but please understand that t...
FFN 110: The Rise of the Peter Pans
June 01, 2018 10:30 - 24 minutes - 28.7 MBWe've all seen the movie, Peter Pan. It's fictional work but it seems that more and more it paints an eerily familiar picture with what we see in the boys who never want to grow up into men. I'll give you a prime example. Just the other day, there was a piece I read about a 30-year old man who had taken his parents to court because his parents were "evicting" him from their house. How pathetic is this? Maybe there's something wrong with this guy (obviously there's something wrong with this...
Dreaming Big and Writing Your Own Story | Charlie Jabaley
May 29, 2018 10:30 - 57 minutes - 39.4 MBAll of us have a story. We all have a past. Our prior circumstances define who we are today but do not have to define who we will become moving forward. Too bad most of us never learn to rewrite the script. Today, I am joined by a friend and man who is impacting and influencing millions. His name is Charlie Jabaley and he's someone who walked away from a multi-million dollar business to rewrite his life, lose a massive amount of weight, become an endorsed Nike athlete, and bike across the ...
FFN 109: How We Stop School Shootings
May 25, 2018 10:30 - 21 minutes - 25.6 MBEvery time we turn around it seems like there's yet another school shooting. And, from what I can see, we're addressing this from a very surface level perspective. This is not about gun control. This is not about gun regulation. In fact, I don't even believe it's fully a gun problem. I think it's a symptom of the problem but not the problem. Obviously, it has to do with the young men who are creating these situations. But more so, we ought to put the responsibility where it truly lies, whi...
ITT 012: Overcoming the Grip of Depression and Suicide| John Gilliland
May 23, 2018 10:30 - 21 minutes - 25.4 MBToday, I talk with John Gilliland about overcoming multiple suicide attempts, rising from the guilt and shame associated with it, using addiction in a positive way, and lifting yourself out of the bottom.

166: Why Men Should Compete | Jake Thompson
May 22, 2018 10:30 - 46 minutes - 31.9 MBCompetition is such a critical component of our journey to develop masculinity and manliness. Too bad it's often viewed as an unnecessary and antiquated way of operating by much of society. Heaven forbid we hold ourselves to a high standard and teach our children to keep score. My guest today, Jake Thompson, Founder of Compete Every Day, makes the case for utilizing healthy competition as a critical factor in improving our lives. Today, we talk about why competition is so important, why ex...
FFN 108: Bridging the Integrity Gap
May 18, 2018 10:30 - 18 minutes - 22.4 MBThere is a gap in most men's lives and, in fact, I would argue in every man's life. This gap represents what we know we should be doing versus the things that we're actually doing. This is the integrity gap. The larger that gap is, the less fulfilled, the more unhappy, the more unpleasant, and depressed you will be. The smaller that gap, the more fulfillment, satisfaction, joy, contentment, happiness, wealth, and prosperity will come into your life. There was a time in my life roughly 10 y...
ITT 011: Execution of Discipline | Cody Duffney
May 16, 2018 10:30 - 16 minutes - 20 MBToday, I talk with Cody Duffney about the execution of discipline, the power of internal reflection, correcting mistakes quickly, and accepting points of weakness. Please leave us a rating and review: www.orderofman.com/itunes Visit us at www.orderofman.com
165: Boys Adrift | Dr. Leonard Sax
May 15, 2018 10:30 - 50 minutes - 34.8 MBContinuing on the theme from last week (because I believe this is such a critical topic right now), today we talk about the fact that young boys seem to be going astray. The school system is stacked against them, society seems to be dismissing masculinity altogether, and being a man is something that actually has to be defended. My guest, Dr. Leonard Sax, joins me to talk about 5 factors driving an epidemic of unmotivated boys and underachieving young men, how the school system needs to be...
FFN 107: Crafting the Perfect Morning Routine
May 11, 2018 10:30 - 18 minutes - 22.3 MBToday, I want to talk about such an important topic and one which is easy to overlook simply because we’ve all heard about it so often. That said, I believe establishing a healthy morning routine is one of the most important things you can do during your day as it really establishes the benchmark, the framework, and the foundation for the way the rest of your day will go. The reason that I think most people overlook (or can’t even stick to a morning routine) is because there’s so much advi...
ITT 010: Training the Mind | Joshua Laycock
May 09, 2018 10:30 - 22 minutes - 26.9 MBToday, I talk with Joshua Laycock about his awakening, why "good enough" is your enemy, the power of your potential, and how to train your mind. Please leave us a rating and review: www.orderofman.com/itunes Visit us at www.orderofman.com
164: A Man's Responsibility to Future Generations | Matt Labrum
May 08, 2018 10:30 - 52 minutes - 36.5 MBThis one is special to me. As most of you know, I grew up without a permanent father figure in my life. I've mentioned in the past that there was a select group of men who helped mold and shape me into the man that I am today. I'm not sure there is another man in my young life who was as influential as my guest today. His name is Matt Labrum and he was my high school football and baseball coach. Today, we talk about his influence in my life and thousands of other young men's lives, the pow...
FFN 106: The Folly of "Zero Fu*ks Given"
May 04, 2018 10:30 - 14 minutes - 17.6 MBYou’ve likely heard of the phrase “zero fu*ks given.” While I can understand to a degree what anyone may be saying when they use that term, I can’t help but see the mistake in that line of thinking – especially for men. Your job is the exact opposite of that sentiment. Your job is to care about a lot, and be a man of value in the walls of your home, inside your business, and out in your community. But if you walk around with a chip on your shoulder and take the stance that everyone else s...
ITT 009: From Complacency to Contentment | Doug Hershberger
May 02, 2018 10:30 - 15 minutes - 18.8 MBToday, I talk with Doug Hershberger about losing massive weight, stoicism, learning to control what you can, being a steward over yourself, and moving from complacency to contentment.

163: The True Cost of Liberty | Braxton McCoy
May 01, 2018 10:30 - 1 hour - 42.9 MBGuys, if you listen to just one of my podcast, please make it be this one. Today, I am joined by my friend and fellow soldier, Braxton McCoy. He and I served in Iraq together in 2005-2006. One day we were playing softball together and the next day, I hear he's been hit by a suicide bomber with multiple fractures and life-threatening injuries to himself and others. I didn't fully realize the extent of his injuries until this interview. This one is raw, it's truthful, and it's extremely insi...
FFN 105: Leaders are Readers
April 27, 2018 10:30 - 15 minutes - 18.9 MBSome of the greatest men the world has ever known are voracious readers. Teddy Roosevelt was said to read a book every morning. General James Mattis is said to have a library of over 600 books. Bill Gates reads a book a week. Mark Cuban reads for 3 hours every day. Elon Musk was once asked how he learned to build rockets, to which he replied, “I read books.” Now, I’m not suggesting that by simply reading books, you will achieve the types of results these men have achieved but, reading and...
ITT 008: Turning Information Into Application | Pierre Azzam
April 25, 2018 10:30 - 24 minutes - 29.1 MBToday, I talk with Pierre Azzam about overcoming introversion, the feeling of being lost and turning information into application. Please leave us a rating and review: www.orderofman.com/itunes Visit us at www.orderofman.com
162: Tapping Into Your Hidden Networks | David Burkus
April 24, 2018 10:30 - 49 minutes - 57.1 MBThere is no such thing as the self-made man. While I can certainly understand and even appreciate the gesture, the truth is that every successful man had some help along the way. That help usually comes in the form of others. My guest today is David Burkus. He is the author of Friend of a Friend: Understanding the Hidden Networks That Can Transform Your Life and Career. Today, we talk about the power of "weak ties," how to leverage "preferential attachment," how to become a super connector...
FFN 104: Building a Thriving Tribe
April 20, 2018 10:30 - 11 minutes - 14.2 MBI want to talk with you about building a thriving tribe. Now, this may be a conversation geared towards those who are working to build their own business/social media tribes like we’ve done here but, really, it’s for any man who wants to lead. And, all men are leaders. So, whether you’re leading a tribe of hundreds of thousands that spans the entire planet (like we are here), or you’ve been tasked with leading a new project at work, or you’ve got a wife and children to protect, provide, a...
ITT 007: Taking Ownership in Divorce | Kipp Sorensen
April 18, 2018 10:30 - 22 minutes - 26 MBToday, I talk with Kipp Sorensen about taking complete ownership in divorce, being more emotionally available in relationships, and living a life of integrity and authenticity.

161: Saved From Success | Dale Partridge
April 17, 2018 10:30 - 48 minutes - 33.3 MBToday, we talk about something we've never directly addressed on this podcast, God. Now, before you tune me out based on that word alone, I believe that regardless of what you believe, there is something to be learned in every conversation and every experience. That's why, when my friend, Dale Partridge reached out to talk about his new book, Saved From Success, I knew I needed to have him on. At the risk of losing a few listeners and receiving a few disapproving emails, I thought this was...
FFN 103: Building a Tribe, Developing Confidence, and the Drive for Bigger and Better
April 13, 2018 10:30 - 26 minutes - 31 MBToday, I answer questions from Facebook about building a tribe, creating a network of connections, developing discipline and confidence, how to help sons with their anger, and improve the drive for bigger and better. www.orderofman.com/FFN103 Please leave us a rating and review!
ITT 006: Overcoming an Alcohol Addiction | Scott Pinyard

160: The Value Proposition | Tyler Harris
April 10, 2018 10:30 - 44 minutes - 30.7 MBAdding value is a phrase we'll all heard. Like any word the marketers of the world get ahold of, it begins to lose some of it's meaning when it's overused. But that overuse doesn't make it any less valuable as a strategy for growth and success. My guest today, Tyler Harris, is using the idea of adding value to create a hugely successful social media business on top of his already existing success in the financial services industry. Today, we talk about how personal responsibility lies at t...
FFN 102: Fuel to the Fire
April 06, 2018 10:30 - 15 minutes - 18 MBI spend a lot of time talking to men on a daily basis. One thing I’m always intrigued by is the fire that I can see (or can’t see) simply by looking into their eyes. It’s been said that “the eyes are the window to the soul.” If that’s true, you can tell a lot about a man and his passion and enthusiasm through a quick glance and connection of the eyes. Unfortunately, all too often what I see when I look is lifelessness, soullessness, and a general complacency and signs of defeat. I can cert...
ITT 005: The Mental Fight Club| Reece Carter
April 04, 2018 10:30 - 20 minutes - 23.9 MBToday, I talk with Reece Carter about the power of a mental fight club, why you need to stop lying to yourself, and how to harness healthy competition. Please leave us a rating and review: www.orderofman.com/itunes Visit us at www.orderofman.com
159: Embrace the Suffering | Rorke Denver
April 03, 2018 10:30 - 54 minutes - 37.4 MBSuffering isn't typically something people like to attract in their lives but the reality is you cannot fully escape it. It's part of the human experience. So, rather than run from the unexpected suffering we're all likely to face, my guest, Navy SEAL Commander Rorke Denver suggests we run towards it and embrace it instead. Today, we talk about the power of identifying and living by a set of ethos, how to create an extremely powerful ecosystem for success, when you should follow the rules ...
FFN 101: Lord of the Flies
March 30, 2018 10:30 - 18 minutes - 21.4 MBThere seems to be this strange shift in society today where we, collectively, have begun to give more credit to children than they deserve. Historically, adults have made the decisions and been the influential party in the direction of relevant culture and policy. Now, in some sort of weird, reality version of Lord of the Flies, we’ve begun to allow our children to dictate the tone of the conversation and set the framework for some very serious issues all of us will be impacted by. Now, be...
ITT 004: Creating a Legacy | Justin Bailey
March 28, 2018 10:30 - 16 minutes - 20 MBToday, I talk with Justin Bailey about creating a legacy our children will be proud of, the power of accountability, and why we should all be more intentional about our lives.

158: The 1% Rule | Tommy Baker
March 27, 2018 10:30 - 50 minutes - 34.8 MBMost of us tend to focus on that one big, audacious goal we all have. The problem with that is it may be so far out there or so unrealistic that subconsciously we believe we can't ever achieve it. My guest and friend, Tommy Baker, makes the case for focusing more on the process than the result. In fact, in his new book, he teaches how to fall in love with the process and achieve our wildest dreams. Today, we talk about overcoming the law of diminishing returns, how to effectively set goals...
FFN 100: The Demise of Responsibility
March 23, 2018 10:30 - 17 minutes - 20.7 MBTake a look around and I think you’ll agree with me that there seems to be more and more men who are shirking their responsibilities as men. It’s easy to understand why. It’s always harder (at least initially) to accept responsibility. If you do, it means you’ll actually have to exert yourself. You’ll have to go into the office a little earlier. You’ll have to stay a little later. You’ll miss the latest season of Game of Thrones (or whatever series happens to be on right now). It means you...
ITT 003: Losing Weight and Paying Off Massive Debt | Bart Folse
