One of my favorite podcast guests and friends is back on the podcast today. His name is Jack Carr, former Navy SEAL and the author of the James Reece series with his latest book just released called The Devil’s Hand. Today, Jack and I talk about the differences between a calling and a career, dealing with discouragement from others, the conditioning that takes place in society and how to overcome it, Joseph Campbell’s, The Hero’s Journey, and how to utilize it in your own life. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS Prioritizing opportunity Creating powerful relationships Career versus profession Preparing to be an author Making things possible Working with Chris Pratt Your next calling in life Getting into character  The power of social media Getting the job done Dealing with internet trolls JACK CARR As I mentioned previously, my guest today is the one and only Jack Carr. I met Jack years ago when we had a podcast during the release of his first book after retiring as a Navy SEAL. I could tell you a bunch about his books and how successful he is but what you may not know is he’s one of the most genuine men you’ll meet. He invited me into his home, introduced me to his beautiful family, and broke bread with me like we were old friends. And, since then, we have become friends and it’s been incredible to see him become so successful as an author with one of his books being filmed right now with Chris Pratt playing the role of James Reece (which we talk a bit about in this podcast). PREPARING FOR DESTRUCTION It’s no surprise to you that the last 12 months or so have been…eventful, to say the least. That’s why with as many variables that we, as men, are likely to face, it’s crucial that we be prepared for whatever may come. After all, David Gilmore said, “The real man gains renown by standing between his family and destruction absorbing the blows of fate with equanimity.” And, that’s exactly what we’re talking about in the Iron Council this month. We’re learning, discussing, and challenging each other to become more prepared for emergencies, natural disasters, violent encounters, and anything else we may potentially run against. If you want to learn more about being prepared and banding with men who will teach you and hold you accountable for doing so, join us in our exclusive brotherhood, the Iron Council by going to www.orderofman.com/ironcouncil.

My guest today is the one and only Jack Donovan. I’ve been honored to get to know him over the past several years and much of what he has shared regarding men and masculinity has shaped my own personal perspective of how we are to show up as fathers, husbands, and leaders in our business and community. Today, we talk about his latest book, Fire in the Dark. We also do a deep dive into the roles of masculinity, individual responsibility, the heroic ideal, and why we as men look to the Gods and what we can learn from them. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS Writing about men’s issues Adding value to others Different voices for different ears What defines masculinity  The eternal truths Biological constructs Rational division of labor Gender theory studies  The slippery-slope fallacy  Taking over a culture Learning to be technical Identifying weakness Settling for mediocrity Self-imposed shackles  The collapse of Moral consensus  Forming a responsible opinion JACK DONOVAN As I said earlier, my guest today is none other than Jack Donovan. Fortunately, I’ve gotten to know Jack over the past several years and we’ve spent a lot of time talking about masculinity and what it means to be a man. I was introduced to his work years ago when I read, The Way of Men, and since then, I’ve been fascinated with his interesting and unique perspectives, and his willingness to share what have only increasingly become polarizing thoughts and ideas. Jack is an extremely fascinated man and has caused me to take a hard look at what I perceive as the responsibilities of men, what it means to be a man, and how we can and should show up in the world. You guys are really going to enjoy this one. PREPARING FOR A DISASTER I think most of us pride ourselves on being prepared to deal with what life has to offer us. After all, it was Douglas Wilson who said, “The real man gains renown by standing between his family and destruction, absorbing the blows of fate with equanimity.” But the question remains, “Are you really prepared for what may come your way?” That’s the question we’re working to answer this month in our exclusive brotherhood, The Iron Council. We’ll be discussing and challenging each other to focus on the priorities of preparedness, shoring up our weaknesses, and holding each other accountable to put ourselves and our families in a better position should disaster strike. And, on top of all that, you’ll get the accountability, guidance, and direction when you band with us inside the Iron Council. To get prepared for whatever life may throw at you and to unlock access to the accountability needed to thrive, learn more and join us at www.orderofman.com/ironcouncil.

As many of you know, several years ago, I immersed myself in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and, frankly, it’s been one of the best things I’ve done for myself in my entire life. And, today, I am joined by a man who has done a tremendous job in getting the art to the masses by codifying a system of learning Jiu-Jitsu that has trained and developed tens of thousands of martial artists. His name is @renergracie, a 4th-degree black belt, the grandson of Helio Gracie, and the founder and chief instructor of Gracie University. We talk about the system he and his brother created, the differences between sport BJJ and combat BJJ, building legacies, training our police force to handle themselves, and how to develop a level of comfort in chaos. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS The starting point of Jiu-Jitsu Becoming the exception  Knowing when to strike Doing things the right way The only fight that matters A product of savagery  Cracking the code The art of violence The Police Disappointment Gap Spreading the word The Bully-Proof program Enforcing boundaries Expressing dissatisfaction  Understanding the consequences RENER GRACIE My guest today is Rener Gracie. He is the grandson of the man who brought Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to America, Helio Gracie. He is a 4th-degree black belt and is the founder and lead instructor of Gracie University where he has instructed thousands of men, women, and children in the art of BJJ. He’s also extremely innovative and forward-thinking and has created programs specifically designed for law enforcement, women, and children (through their Gracie Bullyproof program). In addition, he trains many top-level fighters including UFC’s Brian Ortega. Needless to say, the man knows what he’s doing and he comes from a long line of very capable and proficient tacticians.  ACCOUNTABILITY Most of the men who join our exclusive brotherhood, the Iron Council, do so to gain some level of accountability. In fact, that is one of the main reasons I started the organization. But with as many men who are looking for some level of accountability from the programs, masterminds, and brotherhoods, they participate in, few offer as much accountability as we have built into the Iron Council. When you band with us, not only will you get access to the 820+ men who belong to the Iron Council but you’ll also have the opportunity to join a Battle Team of 15 men who will hold your feet to the fire. And, with the addition of our new Battle Planning App (included in membership), you’ll have the metrics and data needed to achieve at every aspect of your life. If you’re looking for added accountability in your life and you want the tools and systems needed to thrive, join us at www.orderofman.com/ironcouncil.

My guest today is Ethan Suplee. You may know him from his acting roles on Remember the Titans, American History X, and Without a Paddle. But if you saw him today, you likely wouldn’t recognize him. That’s because he’s transformed not only his physical appearance but every element of his life. Today, we talk about his journey to lose over 250 pounds, what it’s like to be severely obese in Hollywood and how many people had a vested interest in him being unhealthy, why who you listen to is so crucial on your self-development journey, adding meaning to challenging self-work, and overcoming a sense of complete powerlessness. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS Choosing your perspective Being seen as the “fat guy” Avoiding the attention Living an active lifestyle Admitting powerlessness Going to the extreme Confronting your bad habits Finding moderation  Crawling out of a hole Living with intention  Experimenting with new things ETHAN SUPLEE My guest today is none other than Hollywood Actor, husband, father, and host of the American Glutton Podcast, Ethan Suplee. Many of you have seen Ethan in Remember the Titans, Butterfly Effect, American History X, Without a Paddle, and so many more movies but, more recently, he’s gained a lot of visibility and attention by embarking on his own health journey by losing over 250 pounds and, frankly, getting jacked. I really enjoyed this podcast because Ethan is such a humble person and he’s taken his years and years of struggle and not only used it as fuel for his own life but fuel for helping others transform themselves primarily through his podcast, American Glutton. THE POWER OF BROTHERHOOD Obviously, we’re talking today about making radical changes in our lives and, personally, what I’ve found to be one of the greatest tools in doing that is having strong, capable, successful men in your corner. And, that’s exactly what you’re going to get when you band with us in the Iron Council. You’re going to immediately connect with over 800 men who want to win, want you to win, and are actually doing something about it. I’ll admit that when you join us, it’s a bit like drinking from a firehose but we’ve got everything you need to help you improve your health, rekindle relationships, build a business, grow your wealth, and anything/everything else you may want to accomplish.

Today I am joined by an incredible man who just so happens to be the youngest U.S Congressman. His name is Madison Cawthorn and he’s gained a ton of attention over the past several months for, first, his powerful speech at the Republican National Convention and, more recently, his floor speech on 2nd Amendment Rights. Today, Congressman Cawthorn and I talk about how he views his disability (he is partially paralyzed from a crash he was in years ago) and his masculinity, what he feels is our civic duty to get involved in politics and important topics, the power of words and using them effectively to create change and hope, the danger of the fatherless home crisis we’re in, uncompromising values, and so much more… SHOW HIGHLIGHTS Determining what’s worthy of attention  Getting involved in office Connecting issues to daily life Overcoming discouragement  Pushing for term limits Speaking to the American ethos What it means to be a man Supporting good policy The belief in yourself  Feeling completely useless  Taking care of your family  Having a network of guys Dropping out of college Proving your competence  Getting rid of the nuclear family   Equity Vs. Equality MADISON CAWTHORN Gentlemen, my guest today is a man that likely needs no introduction for many of you. At 25, he is currently the youngest U.S. Congressman but, as we talk about in this conversation, he does not let that keep him from throwing himself into some of the most important (and polarizing) discussions in politics today. What’s even more impressive is that in 2014, his life plans came to a halt as he found himself a survivor of a car accident that left him partially paralyzed. After scrapping his plans to attend the Naval Academy, he found his way into politics as a way to serve in spite of not being able to join the military. Gentlemen, this was a very powerful conversation with a man who had a lot of reason to quit in life but has, instead, decided to make the most of his circumstances and become a force to be reckoned with. IRON COUNCIL By now, you’ve heard all about our exclusive brotherhood, the Iron Council. One thing that you may not know is that each and every month, we focus on a topic to better equip ourselves as men with the tools and resources we need to succeed and thrive. And, for the month of April, we’re going to be talking all about being prepared. In the wake of Texas’ power outages, the COVID fallout, and any number of additional events we’re bound to face, it’s crucial that we, as men, get ourselves prepared for what life may throw our way. If this is something that has been on your mind, join us inside the Iron Council as we all work to better equip and inoculate ourselves against tragic, difficult, and unfortunate life events. You’ll also gain access to all of the resources available and the brotherhood of men who will help you get the most out of your life. Join us at www.orderofman.com/ironcouncil.

Gentlemen, there is so much negativity, hostility, and vitriol in the world today. It’s unfortunate because even in the most difficult of circumstances there is so much to be positive about and grateful for. And, as we look for and embrace those factors, life becomes so much more rewarding and fulfilling. Today, I am joined by country music artist, Granger Smith (we also talk about his alter-ego, Earl Dibbles, Jr.) to talk gratitude, juggling all of our duties and responsibilities, and attaching the right (and empowering) meaning to events. We also talk about the tragic loss of Granger’s son and how he continues to lead his family through one of the most difficult situations imaginable – losing a child. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS Granger’s new upcoming video Benefiting from hard work Overcoming negativity  Developing a successful career Managing at a larger level Getting asked the right question Harnessing social media Having a grateful attitude  Living in the moment How to juggle life Balancing grief and loss The support of a community Assigning meaning to your work  Not taking life too seriously  GRANGER SMITH Gents, my guest today is an absolutely incredible man. His name is Granger Smith. He is an extremely successful country music artist, host of the Granger Smith podcast, and co-creator of his alter-ego, Earl Dibbles, Jr., the spokesman for his clothing apparel company Yee Yee Apparel. I’ve been following Granger for years now and I had always been impressed with his positivity and outlook on life and, after our conversation today, I am even more so. We talk about so much today. His positivity, energy, and excitement for life is infectious and it makes me want to be a better man myself. I think it will for you too. IRON COUNCIL Having men in your corner cannot be overstated. Too many men have decided to walk through life alone and, oftentimes, they’re left feeling frustrated and overwhelmed with all they have to deal with. But banding with other men doesn’t make you weak or inferior. If anything, it gives you access to the tools and accountability needed to make you stronger. And, with over 800 men inside our exclusive brotherhood, The Iron Council, you are going to find the type of men you need to thrive inside the walls or your home, business, and in your community. I know a lot of you have been sitting on the fence on the Iron Council so get off the fence and give it a try. Worst case scenario, you don’t find any value and you leave. But I think you’ll find that when you band with us, every facet of your life is going to improve and you’ll only be asking why you didn’t join us sooner.

Gents, today, I am joined by my friend and repeat guest, Mr. Steven Pressfield. We talk about his new novel, A Man at Arms, but we also get into so much more including overcoming imposter syndrome, getting past your fears, dealing with procrastination, handling disappointment effectively, and why it’s important to make your concerns real and tangible. My first podcast with Steven was so popular that I knew we needed to have him back on and this one certainly did not disappoint. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS Overcoming resistance and frustration The voice of resistance  Dealing with imposter syndrome Walking the right path   Recreating adversity  A life of ease and comfort  Preparing your mindset Speaking directly to men Listening to your inner voice The mark of a true artist Giving yourself permission Doing what you want to do Believing you offer value Writing A Man at Arms Accessing the sub-conscience The process of writing something Existing on multiple levels Life lessons in fictional work The highest form of communication What makes a bad book Following your gift  Making batter decisions Systems to reading fiction STEVEN PRESSFIELD My guest today is the one and only Steven Pressfield. He was on with us several months ago and since I enjoyed the conversation so much and we received so much positive feedback, I knew that we needed to have him back on to talk about his latest release, A Man at Arms, and the value, challenges, and rewards of putting your work, whatever it is, out into the world. He is a New York Times Bestselling Author and has personally been extremely influential in the work that we’re doing here with Order of Man and I could not be more grateful to him and proud to give you round two of our discussion. THE ART OF IMPOSSIBLE Gents, inside the Iron Council for the month of February, we’re talking about how to craft your day but for the month of March, we’ll be covering “The Art of Impossible” and uncover how you can turn your dreams, ideas, and ambitions into reality. We’re going to be discussing and challenging each other how to learn more effectively, how to enter your best work in a “flow state,” and how to harness creativity for maximum results.
