What are your biggest takeaways from lost texts such as the Gospel of Thomas?
What were spiritual leaders like Jesus actually trying to teach?
Jesus said, “Don't lie, and don't do what you hate, because all things are disclosed before heaven. After all, there is nothing hidden that will not be revealed, and there is nothing covered up that will remain undisclosed.”
His disciples said to him, “Is circumcision useful or not?”
He said to them, “If it were useful, their father would produce children already circumcised from their mother. Rather, the true circumcision in spirit has become profitable in every respect.”
Here are 2 books about the life and teachings of Jesus:
- The Mystical Life of Jesus by H. Spencer Lewis
- The Secret Doctrines of Jesus by H. Spencer Lewis
Drew asks… (14:35)
Hi Vic, I am 21 years old and looking to take Red Growth now that Red PCT 2.0 is available. I am currently in very good shape but I would like to take it to the next level. Are there any long term risks associated with Red Growth for someone my age? I also have been doing steak & eggs for 5 days per week and carbs the other 2 days. On red growth should I stick with this diet? Or would no carb be better on the cycle. By the way I love the new B&D; podcast. I look forward to listening every week.
There should be no long term risks for doing a cycle of Red Growth at this age. Especially if you use Red-PCT 2.0 after finishing Red Growth. As a first time user of any anabolic supplement, you should follow the “beginner's protocol” that we outline on the site.
Beginner Example: Week 1: One capsule per day || Week 2: Two capsules per day || Week 3: Three capsules per day || Week 4: Three capsules per day
Your diet seems good for Red Growth & gaining muscle. You're eating the right stuff, you just needs to make sure you're eating a lot of it. Carbs are fine if you're most concerned with gaining weight/muscle as fast as possible.
R.H. asks… (15:55)
Do you read books/blogs written by female writers? If so, what do you expected to learn from them and who are you favorite female writers?
Chin-Ning Chu was the best female author (RIP). Her books:
MoneyStudy asks… (17:24)
Porn and masturbation has quickly become the single biggest killer of motivation of men. Do you think in the future there will be two castes of men, ones who avoid porn and are successful and the other who are shameful porn watchers?
Dan asks… (18:20)
Question: you’ve surely notice that most western men…well…lets just say that we lack survival skills. It seems we assume everything will always be ok and if something ever goes wrong (like a natural disaster, foreign invasion, or a collapse of society) then someone will come to our rescue. What do you make of this? Should we all be learning and preparing…getting some skills? Or have an exit plan? Its quite time consuming. What plan do you have for yourself?
Nick asks… (20:30)
Given the recent events of the me too movement and misandry that the media and many American women have towards men, I have come to the conclusion that it is dangerous to get involved with American women in any way. If you do something she doesn’t like, say the wrong thing, or if she has a boyfriend and gets caught, you could very well end up with a false rape accusation, have your reputation destroyed, or do jail time. I’m aware that this can happen in other places but in America it seems to be a part of the culture. Because of this I have went full Mgtow on American women and won’t have anything to do with them. Are my fears justified? Am I overreacting?
OM asks… (23:17)
If someone is on TRT, wouldn’t keto and other low carb style diets be less ideal? The carb nutrient partitioning is better when having high T levels and fat is no longer needed in higher amounts for the hormonal benefits since they are receiving their hormones exogenously…would this warrant a higher carb and lower fat intake? I enjoy eating manly carnivore like foods (fatty meats, fats, etc) but would think its less optimal/needed if I am already getting my t-levels synthetically and not from food.
Saturated fat is a vital nutrient, regardless of what drugs you are using. The vital vitamins (Vitamins A and D) are fat-soluble and without fat they cannot be utilized. High carb/low fat diets + steroids will make you look good but inside you will be as sick and as devitalized as the majority of the other people. It is not a matter of appearance, it is a matter of true health.
Michael T. asks… (26:36)
You advocate eating a grass fed natural animals and an all carnivore diet. However, you also advise lowering expenses as low as possible. I am continuing on my entrepreneurial journey and will be leaving my current contract position in 5 months and would like to live low cost. Grass Fed RibEye usually runs $10-$13 per meal. How do you personally strike the balance between saving and eating the natural human diet.
(29:15) How come no books in Christianity were written by Yeshua himself. Only by his followers. How come this is never discussed, isn’t it possible that his followers perverted his work. My understanding is that Yeshua came to break us free of organized religion. Also how come no one questions that the largest influence in the early church was “Paul” who’s name was changed from “Saul”. He wrote many New Testament books, but before he became a Christian he was the largest Mass Murderers of Christians.
Joseph asks… (30:58)
What are some good skills that a man can become an expert in, that he can then use to make a lot of money? Particularly for someone starting out at 19 years old with a few grand saved.
ASDF asks… (33:10)
Hey Vic, What are your thoughts on individualism and collectivism? On one hand, rugged individualism is necessary to be a winner and rise over the herd. On the other hand, if one ignores the state of the society he lives in, that society may go to shit, as the West has. What I’ve noticed is that successful people put their own selfish (individualistic) interests first and will join groups, or collectives, as a means to further their own selfish interests. So in a sense, even when operating within a collectivist framework, they still have an individualistic spirit and a ‘me first’ attitude.
(34:55) Also, in a previous podcast you stated socialism (an economic system which benefits the collective/herd) and capitalism (a system which benefits the individual), just like any other ‘ism’, is a means of control. It would seem like the ambitious entrepreneur (such as yourself) would prefer a capitalist system as it would allow his rise to the top to be uninhibited by state intervention on the behalf of the collective. Even though both ‘isms’ are meant to control, don’t you at least prefer capitalism to socialism? Or is there another economic theory out there that you prefer?
JP asks… (36:28)
What is your advice for starting bloggers or Internet entrepreneurs? Should they get licensing, tax IDs, LLC, etc. Before they proceed in running the business, or should they get them when they’re earning a decent revenue?
Maximillian asks… (37:43)
Vic, what do you think about occasionally eating fats in the form of nuts and avocados?
Parik asks… (38:15)
When we speak about addictions, why do we not count sex? Most men, after a certain period without sexual activity, will get so horny and agitated that they will be unable to perform any activities until they obtain sexual release. Sexual addiction is, in my opinion, the single biggest addiction in the world.
Eli asks… (40:40)
You’ve said that in 1 month you were a good guitar player. How’d you do this? I understand you have to get obsessed to get good at something but did you have a teacher? did you watch youtube tutorials? Did you learn for books? Please elaborate.
Steve asks… (41:47)
I have a blog and YouTube channel. I want to create digital products in the future by writing and publishing a series of eBooks. But… are eBooks still in demand? Or is it better to create other content like video or online courses? Which ones would you choose and why?
Vince asks… (42:33)
Hey Vic, Loved hearing about your morning routine. Water, stretching, going to a coffee shop to work. Reading in the afternoon. My question, when do you go to the gym and workout? And how many days a week do you go to the gym in this present season of your life?
Damon asks.. (43:38)
What advice do you have for someone that lost their job recently and is seeking a means of income without working a 9 to 5?
(44:13) Also, Vic before gaining the wisdom I have from your website I watched a lot of porn and it’s screwed up my computer. I have malware, spyware, etc and it’s compromised my information. I’ve received warnings from Microsoft that my iPhone and computer are at risk. I’m afraid to make purchases online due to my credit cards and banking information being compromised. What security procedures do you recommend I take to protect myself?
Wolf asks… (44:38)
What are your experiences with real estate? Is it worth doing it? How can a man start building his real estate empire?
ML asks… (45:13)
Do you do intentional SEO on your pieces? If so what kind of SEO would you do for an artistic piece like the metamorphosis? What key phrases do you target and how do you go on about choosing them? I find that doing SEO takes away the art of the piece.
Steven asks… (45:40)
What is the most important everyday habit to be successful in life?
Vaios asks… (46:43)
How do you prevent getting sick ? Also, if you do get sick how do you make the illness go away?
Mark asks… (47:37)
Is it beneficial to fast first thing in the morning and wait till noon and have a big lunch?
James asks… (48:11)
Hey Vic. I haven’t been on B&D; for a while and was pleased to see you have been on the carnivore diet. I’ve been eating this way for 8 months and it changed my life and views on what should even be considered “food”. My question is about muscle building on this diet. I am tall fit and lean but I don’t have the muscle mass of a weightlifter. I used to be big but lost most of my muscle after a surgery kept me out of the gym for a couple of years. Is it possible on this diet to build the same amount of muscle I would on a carb heavy diet? Thanks keep up the good work.
Sebastian Heart asks… (49:26)
As a traditional white man I am sick and tired of living in the political correct leftist country of the Netherlands. I really feel betrayed by the modern exploiters – I mean politicians that manage my country. I am getting really sick of seeing the Islamization of my country progress while nearly all of my family and friends are in such denial and feel they should be ‘tolerant’.
Therefore I am thinking of moving to a country in the Western World that still holds strong traditional values. I am very motivated to move to the Southern USA, where a lot of Trump supporters and no political correctness lives. I’d love it to be a countryside area. Do you know any of such areas in the USA or in the world.
Floriao asks… (52:32)
How does one work for 16-18 hours per day? (Playing computer games for a living)
(53:26) Do you still use 5htp?
Philip asks… (54:34)
Did you initially hire a web designer to make B&D;, or did you figure everything out yourself?
(55:30) You mentioned we are living in a virtual reality thanks to smartphones. I’m currently doing freelance work as a content creator for a cryptocurrency startup. Their ICO (Initial coin offering) project is to have the entire world living in a virtual reality simulation one day, saving resources and making people digitally immortal. Millions of dollars have been invested and the more I learn, the more I realize that the masses could actually be heading towards such an existence.
What are your thoughts on this?
Nick asks… (57:25)
What’s the biggest mistake you’ve ever made? Why did you make it? And how did you resolve it?
Christopher asks… (58:19)
Hi Victor, You have mentioned in a previous post about what the Japanese call “Sanpaku eyes”, and I have noticed that the whites of my eyes are visible slightly below my iris. Apparently this means that I am a danger to myself (though not to others). Based on my past actions, I’d say that is about accurate, and I have had problems with addictions.
What if anything can I do about this? Deliberately narrowing my eyes is at best a temporary measure and doesn’t address the underlying issue. I hate the fatalistic way my eyes seemingly foretell my destiny, as if I was just a throwaway character in a story set up to fail, rather than being the author of my own destiny.
Orestes asks… (1:01:01)
How can we improve our creativity? Discover things and put them in motivational articles is one thing, but create something entirely new, like a story, seems like way harder and slower. Do you have any suggestions?
Jason asks… (1:02:18)
I’ve had a lisp my whole life that I’m self-conscious about. I have trouble pronouncing the letter S or words that start with or include the letter S. Should I just forget about it and move on with my life or work hard to correct it? It feels impossible at this point in my life because of habit. Please advise what you would do.
Luke asks… (1:03:27)
Do you still train your posterior chain as often as you did to keep lower back pain away or do you simply do maintenance work on your gym days? I’ve been writing a lot more and sitting in front of the computer has not treated my lower back too well. Any additional tips for days where you’re working a long time?
Benjamin asks… (and the opening topic for the next episode)
Vic, What drives individuals to unspeakable acts of cruelty?
Until next time.

Victor what is your ethnicity?
Hello, Vic. You almost don’t talk about the carnivore diet nowadays. I’m so interested on it, but I’m also concerned on few things. I want to know it deeper before try it.
• It is a lifelong diet or a season diet?
• People have told that over-consume of meat leads to cancer and heart diceases. Is there an impact or side effects on the long term with this diet?
• What do you think about The China Study? It is true or propaganda?
Thank you for the information.
The China Study is rubbish. Advocates high fiber intake and avoiding cholesterol. Very blasé and typical dieting advice from a “doctor”.
What’s up Vic just grabbed a pound of fat from Whole Foods butcher how do I cook it ? Do I mix it into my beef or what ?
Cook it like bacon. Fry it in a skillet. Eat it with your leaner beef.
Thanks a lot ! Red growth Def paying off as well I was already in good shape I’m a monster now hahaha
And use Cast iron pans only!
Trust me, it will make everything much better!
Hi Vic,
Do you keep a daily journal? I don’t always, but find that recording important events helps me remember better for my blog, and memory.
Thanks,
Jordan
Hey Victor,
Nice podcast. Keep it up.
- Have you read Do The Work by Steven Pressfield? I recommend it if you haven’t.
It’s a book about overcoming our inner resistance and breaking the barriers we put up against ourselves.
- Why do you believe some women like to get slapped during sex? Why do you believe some people are into BDSM?
- What is the difference between a drug and a supplement?
I’ll stick to just these questions for now as to not overwhelm you and take other people’s opportunity.
Cheers!
Victor,
What’s the fastest way to build the strength and endurance to do 100 consecutive pushups? Should I do as many pushups as possible every day? How many rest days should I have?
Thanks!
Hello vic, what do you think of green veggies and antioxydant powder ?
Hello Vic, you talked a little bit about the United States not having values anymore. I definitely agree with you for the most part but there are parts that still have inhabitants living with old world values. I know from first hand experience that western Wyoming is this way. Pinedale, Wyoming to be exact. A very small town in the middle of nowhere surrounded by mountains. I haven’t visited anywhere else in the lower 48 that is anything like Pinedale. Nobody there will help you and life is what you make it. Look into it if you’re curious and I think you’d be surprised what you find. Most of Wyoming is astronomically different than the rest of the country but Pinedale stands out the most in my opinion.
I’ll have to visit. Thanks for the tip.
What’s up Vic!
Do you think there’s ever such thing as too much sex?
Yes jerking off is one thing… but sex on the other hand is a whole different story.
Thanks,
Luke
Gotta ask this.
After two years since the big day, what is your opinion of President Trump? I’d seriously love an extended answer.
(Full disclosure: I voted for him, I like what he’s doing, and after the crap the D’s put against justice Kavanaugh I will probably vote R for many many years, and yes I know I shouldn’t rely on a political party, but that was too much.)
You cracked me up with that response! I agree with you when it comes to mistakes. Failure and mistakes let us know exactly what NOT to do so we can learn what we SHOULD do. God knows we’ve all made them.
I just grabbed two bottles of Red PCT for when I’m done with my current cycle of Red Growth, which I’ve been using as a quick way to gain back a little muscle I lost when I started boxing.
So far I’ve gained around 5 lbs, and I look much harder and more vascular than a few weeks ago. Looking forward to 8 weeks on Red PCT!
Thanks for another great episode,
Nick
How do I discover my talents?
Tremendously grateful for your work, Uncle Vic, but I believe in holding men to the fire and asking them the hard questions as I respect you.
1) You called men with lisps “degenerate retards”. Would this include Mike Cernovich? I will say that some lisps are genetically and/or biologically caused by muscular problems and nerve misfiring.
2) You didn’t answer the question about “the biggest mistake you made”. In my experience, when men refuse to answer that question, it always, ALWAYS has to do with sex, romance, and relationships. My question-did you wife up a non-optimal woman and/or have kids and then get divorced from the aforementioned woman?
We appreciate your transparency, especially when you revealed your real name as Nick. I feel the men on this great site, the shoguns and the ronins, deserve the truth and you should expect nothing less than for us to hold you to the standards of non-BS that we value.
This is possibly one of the best podcasts yet. Vic, I know you don’t use drugs, do you drink alcohol??
Also, Vic if I eat the clean no carb 3 meals a day with no snacks or six meals per day will I still gain size?
My man,
2 questions: Do you have a perspective on the subconscious mind & ways of ‘reprogramming’ it for success? And numero 2, are you still Wim Hof’ing?
Appreciate you big bro.
Hey Vic,
Do you have any use/perspective for the Five Love Languages by Gary Chapman?
Thanks Unc.
Hey Mr. Pride. I am proud of you for the message you are spreading among Christian Community.
I am a Muslim. I too am interested in religion and I follow my religion happily.
Jesus(peace be upon him) The son of Mary is Indeed a Prophet from God. You call him Yeshua and we call him Isa. The Gospel was revealed by God to him and indeed he carried the message of truth. But some people in the greed of money, changed his message and spread falsehood among Christians.
And you are revealing his original message to the people. You are removing them from the darkness in the path of glory. May God help you in your mission.
-Ameen
One very interesting thing for me is that I found out Chin-Ning Chu, the Thick Face, Black Heart author lived right down the street from where I live now.
Hey Vic,
I remember in an article of yours you recommended working out your abs standing up instead of laying down ….was wondering what type of standing ab exercise or even a visual you could give for us?
You can do this exercise standing and kneeling: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fbujeH3F0E
The month of November makes the no snacking part of the 30 day challenge even more challenging with Thanksgiving coming up.
Hey Vic,
I totally appreciate your work and resnoates with 99.9% of what you’re saying.
I tried the carnivore diet but got severe constipation. It only works for me when I combine my steaks and eggs with leafy greens/other vegetables.
You once mentioned that vegies are not digestible. Fibers in vegetables are not supposed to be digested, did you know that? In fact, their main purpose is to support the gut’s bacteria by fedding them with the nutrition they need (in the form of fiber).
So, my question to you is - do you really believe our ancestors ate ONLY meat?
I’m wondering because you seem like a smart person who has done his research but on the other hand meta-analysis of researches regarding our ancestor’s diet, which you are a big fan of, points out that Homo Sapiens ate fish and other seafood, animal foods *and plant-based foods*, which for some reason you are against.
I would like to hear from you on that point.
If our ancestors ate plant-based foods as part of their diet, what makes you think we shouldn’t too?
Happy November :)
Hi Uncle Vic,
I noticed you promoted “Shadow Men” by Anthony Napoleon. The book is a solid overview of many topics but I would like you to know that the author is a subversive who, if you follow him on his twitter handle @napoleonlegal, is promoting a full VEGAN diet to his gullible followers.
He also happens to be a thin-skinned narcissist.
Would you still recommend the Shadow Men book and more importantly: DO YOU BELIEVE that the present state of our degenerate world is the karmic effect of our slaughterhouses where animals are brutally killed, which is what Napoleon claims?
Poor fella looks like he’s having a nervous breakdown. That’s what happens when you go vegan, a total vitamin and nutrient deficiency. Doesn’t matter how smart you are, if you are lacking essential vitamins you will go nuts and become hyper-emotional. What happens to vegans -> https://youtu.be/PJnPZgLHHWQ
Damn, the first girl on the video scared the shit out of me!
The first seconds of the video are enough to deliver the message I think.
Thank you for putting that out for us. Really makes you think again about how crazy vegans can become.
Hey Vic,
Another question came to my mind:
Since you told us you are no longer work from home, do you have any recommendations for inspiring places to work with your laptop (other than coffee shops)?
I hate working from home also and am looking for other alternatives.
Thanks :)
Hi Vic.
I am training with my body weight for a year now. I decided to start weight lifting ASAP. Could you outline the basics for beginners for me please? Calisthenic is lot of fun, but it’s time to get really strong.
Thank you for your answer and all the inspiration and motivation this blog provides!
I notice that the characters in the novel “Shogun” never laugh.
How often do you laugh? When was the last time you laugh wholeheartedly?
Does the life of a highly successful man/entrepreneur/lone-wolf rob us of the opportunity to laugh wholeheartedly?
Hello Victor,
I am Harold, the grandson of Harvey Spencer Lewis, the man who wrote the Mystical Teachings of Christ book. Thank you for sharing my grandfather’s incredible work. He was killed, we believe, by the higher order priests who work in cohort with politicians and bankers to rule our world as he was revealing things to the masses which they had no business knowing about, according to the elites. He tried to carry on Christ’s work by freeing people, and Christ, just like him, was killed by these evil elements. Christ preached self-determination and a personal discovery of the absolute Truth that is God, not bowing down to satanically-compliant papal figureheads who have expropriated his teachings as a means of personal control. I was in the inner sanctum and found a way to escape, but not a day goes by when I fear that they may come for me next given I am a Rosicruscian expert.
I appreciate all you are doing but please watch your 6. I am an expert in those who rule over us, to the point where I can say that even well-intentioned efforts like Shadow Men by Dr. Anthony Napoleon barely capture 25% of the truth and don’t reveal any “juicy details”. The men who rule over us are paranoid and anal about monitoring us, eventually want to digitally chip us all like livestock, and anyone who tries to expose them gets on their radar. You are playing with fire in promoting my grandfather’s book, and though I am very grateful, I would be remiss if I did not warn you. Please be extremely careful.
Every major disaster or event in our planet was carefully engineered to suit the whims and fancies of these evil agents of power. They engineer financial crashes once every generation to swindle the masses and line the pockets of their bankers, who curiously enough, all belong to the same tiny ethnic group that advocates for a strong homeland for their people while subverting everyone and all lands around them and that they immigrate to. The elites stage false flag attacks, infiltrated the families of royalty in Europe, control trillions of dollars worth of land, breed women prisoners in underground vaults to produce children who are subjected to advanced psychological destruction in the form of split personality formation via torture and drug-induced convulsion, and they single-handedly elect Presidents. If anyone ever tells you that Jeff Bezos, with $100 billion, is anywhere near the richest man in the world…laugh. Just laugh. As someone whose knowledge of these matters is in the top 1%, I can also say, sadly, that President Trump’s entire administration has been sabotaged because he is not particularly bright. He is perhaps a standard deviation or two higher than average IQ and he has placed his trust in his subversive son in law, daughter, and other unsavory folks who are not to be trusted. They run his presidency now. The boisterous man we saw on the campaign trail is now gone.
The elites have taken advantage of the neuropsychological makeup of our women, freeing the brakes on the evolutionary process of reproduction to encourage unforeseen sluttiness and arrogance in our women, ensuring that they will be suboptimal wives and eventually destroy our race via lack of progeny. And yes, (they) are pathologically envious of our people and will stop at nothing in destroying us (or other followers of Christ, for that matter…they hated the man with a passion most people would never understand, but I can assure you that the men and few women who actually run our planet are not just merely environmentally molded sociopaths but biologically-crafted PSYCHOpaths. e.g. they lack the neural ability to care and resonate with others, let alone follow Western standards of morality. People like Anthony Napoleon (whom I know for a fact is an incredibly intelligent “agent” who was part of their inner circle) saw how they torture humans and animals and advocate things like veganism-However, I think animal fat is essential to us.
However-if you want to escape the karmic penalty associated with negative actions, you must immediately ensure that you only purchase meat from animals that were happy during life, roaming on grass, etc, and killed by a local butcher or family, NEVER those that were subjected to the torture of a slaughterhouse. I assure you I could write a paragraph on the karmic workings of action based on esoteric laws and rules which the masses have no idea even exists but please just trust me and share this, if not anything else, with your followers.
God bless you and continue your journey to learn about the Truth
Warmest regards
H.S. Lewis
Hello Vic,
I’d like to ask when is it appropriate to respond to violence with violence and when it is wiser to walk away? It seems that there is a conflict between rationally defending myself and my dignity on the one hand, and avoiding getting goaded into pointless conflicts on the other. Any advice you have would be much appreciated, thanks!
Vic, you seem like a very self assured and confident man. You don’t give a rat’s ass about what anyone says, thinks or writes about you, your company or your opinions. How can I develop an unapolegetic mindset like yours?
I was recently listening to an old podcast between you & Chris Good Looking Loser. You were talking about the girls being extremely attractive in Bangkok. Are there any other attractive women that are not Asian? I’ve also heard there are a lot of transgenders in those countries but I don’t really believe that unless I know it to be true.. Any thoughts? Also What would be a good country to go to if I was not particularly attracted to Asian women? Thanks
Vic- I recommend reading ‘Estrogenation’ by Dr Anthony Jay, or at least skimming it, to get it’s recommendations on how to get rid of these estrogen mimickers in our life. He provides a plan for us to avoid them.
Two questions
Is Red Growth safe for an 18 year old to use?
Also, can you gain strength on the keto diet if you’re not a newbie?
Uncle V:
I’ve been training calisthenics/street workout for little over two years now and my palms and knuckles are becoming awfully beat up. Do you recommend wearing gloves when training or are they for pussies?
Hey Vic,
Can you talk more about the benefits of getting used to doing what’s hard? And why we should train ourselves to do this.
Also, there are so many so called ways to make money online. Are there any you suggest staying away from?
Why did you kill off New World Ronin and some of your social media channels/older Youtube videos? Do you still go back to older work and creations to see how you’ve grown as a man over the last number of years, even if you don’t have it posted for the world to see?
Uncle Vic,
I could use your advice. I’ve read the 16 ways to Sleep Better but couldn’t find an answer to my question.
I’ve been putting my wake up and bedtimes in a journal for a month now and I can notice that I am going to bed randomly and waking up when I feel like I’ve got enough sleep. I’ve noticed that it’s never enough and I function better on less sleep, but I just don’t have the willpower to rise in the morning. I feel too tired no matter what. Partly it’s the old mattress, but to a bigger extent I believe is that I am chronically sleep deprived (I sleep a lot, but I don’t get enough quality sleep).
Now I’ve noticed a pattern that in the past few days. I started to sleep around 8-9 hours consistently. Now I would like to know if it’s better to wake up at the same time or go to bed at the same time.
Once I make the habit of going to bed and waking up regularly, I will try to decrease the time somewhere between 7 and 8 hours a night. I don’t like taking naps during the day. Or I might as well try to wake up without any alarm clock but go to bed between 10pm and midnight.
Thanks for doing your work all these years man. You’ve been an inspiration always!
Vic,
One of your Five Star Fridays included a quote by Esther Vilar.
I had no idea who that was so I googled her and found her body of work.
I’m reading the Manipulated Man now and it’s blowing my mind. Frankly I don’t know what to think anymore.
I was curious to hear your impressions of Esther Vilar’s work and her beliefs.
Best,
-Nikhil
Vic,
What is your opinion on legalization of weed in Canada? Do you think the US will be next? IMO this is the elites trying to further “zombie-fy” the population and make them easier to control .
Steve
Question to Victor Pride.
Hi Victor, first of all I want to say that I really like and admire your work. I think you are doing a great thing for humanity.
I have a question that I’ve hesitated to ask here.
One that I would not really admit to anyone in person.
Let me preface by saying that I am in my thirties, I work out regularly, I have a clean diet. I work for myself, and let’s just say that I am Not broke.
I live a really good life, and I can do as I please. My problem is that all of a sudden, out of No Where, I have become really sensitive and I get extreme sadness from time to time, Especially when it comes to matters of people.
I literally can’t remember the last time I had cried. Not that I believe men shouldn’t cry, I am simply fortunate that life hasn’t given me many reasons to cry, and yet I find myself (all of a sudden) feeling extreme sadness when I see things in my day to day life.
An example: four days ago I was waiting in my car outside an office building, and I saw a homeless man who looked very very bad, walk up to the dumpster to look for food. He pulled out an empty plastic soda bottle, and put it to his mouth to suck the last drops. My heart instantly broke and I felt that knot in my throat. I walked over and handed him some dollars and asked if he was hungry. I could tell he wasn’t well mentally, so I just ran over to a gas station and bought him a gallon of water and some snacks. I handed it to him in a bag and left.
I felt like crying the whole drive home, and for a few hours afterwards.
Another example: Two days ago I was at a local Starbucks, and there was a family waiting to get coffee. A Mom, Dad and a little boy. I could tell they were not from this country, and that they were in a Starbucks for probably the first time. I could tell it was the little boy’s idea to be in there, because of how excited he was to try Starbucks. The mother and father looked shy and out of place to say the least. They ordered one drink for the kid, and they all sat down. The little boy was SO happy with his drink and I could tell he was enjoying it immensely. He would hand it over to his parents for them to try, and I got the impression that they were probably struggling a lot, but wanted to treat their son to Starbucks. An OVERWHELMING feeling of wanting to cry hit me again. So much so, that I had to leave. I actually shed tears driving home. This is happening more and more to me.
I know this can’t be normal. What are your thoughts on this? Has anything like this ever happened to you? What do you advice/suggest?
Thank you in advance.
Hello Mr. Pride,
i’m a 44 year old dude from germany and would like to have your opinion. Germany is getting flushed down the toilet as you already know and my wife and i are playing with the thought of leaving germany for good. The thing is, as one gets older one also becomes more of a coward, at least in my case. What would you recommend where should we go and how can we prosper financially. Savings are tight due to an expansive divorce from my first spouse (i know i know…)
Thx a lot, love to listen to your podcast btw
Bye Markus
Hello Markus,
maybe you should study the history of our beautiful country. Think about the 30 Years´ War or the two World Wars. We need hardship. We need struggle in our lifes to rise to the top. We should never seek the easy path in life. Remember, if you leave your country behind you betray your ancestors and what they fought for. There were men in war for you. They fought for a better and bigger Germany. And you want to run away only because of some obstacles? There are huge challenges for us but we can decide if we become the greatest men of our time or the biggest shame for the whole world. And all people on the earth will look at the place where once Germany was and they will remember how strong and mighty we once were.
I don´t want that my children will look at me as a coward who escaped from his country when it needed him the most. They shall admire their father as a hero and a warrior you are afraid of.
Remember, you decide every day what kind of man you want to be.
Read the Bible people if you want to know Jesus! Not what some masonic occultist wrote about him.

Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;
What are your views on deviated septum surgery?
Also have you ever had any surgeries and what was your experience like?
Hi Uncle Vic,
Thanks again for answering my questions. I have to ponder about them for some time. And thanks for clarifying about LLCs, on when people should get them. I think processing paperworks is one of the paralyzing process for any startup business, especially if they don’t have money to pay for the necessary filings and if the business doesn’t have cash to pay for expenses needed to keep up with the regulations (ex. bookkeepers/accountants to file tax forms and keep up with their taxes).
Anyway, a few days ago, I was thinking about money and entrepreneurship. I was thinking of the following:
1) How do you budget your money? I know one of your main principle about money is to never have any debts, especially for no good reason at all. But what about saving, what do you think about saving? And investing? What are your thoughts on investing to stock markets, mutual funds, real estate, etc.? What do you think of the typical financial guru advise of “go to school, get a stable job, save a portion of your paycheck and invest for the long-term”?
2) As an entrepreneur yourself, what do you think is the most important mindset and skill all entrepreneur should have?
Thanks Uncle Vic!
Best Regards,
JP
May I add:
3) If I’m not mistaken, you once wrote that we should ignore the news because most news mostly deliver nothing but bad news like corruption of a gov’t official, stealing here, killing there, etc. Yes, that make sense to just ignore them altogether. But on the other hand, isn’t it that the news is what will keep us “informed”? Just an example, it is what will inform us of a new modus operandi used by the criminals for their crime and how to avoid it. So while the news are mostly toxic (or nonsense), at some degree it can be useful for us. What do you think of this?
Thanks!
THIS IS A DUPLICATE COMMENT FROM YOUR LATEST POST ON 35 DAYS OF CARNIVORE DIET. I posted it here too because I remembered you said to post on the podcast posts after I initially posted it.. my bad:
Victor, great post here. I’m going to increase the amount of meat and fat I consume because you’ve provided such strong evidence.
I have a request for the next podcast relating to 30DOD: I have been on NoFap since about mid October, so a little bit before you started these November challenges. I have gone 90 days before and felt like I was on steroids mentally and physically, and I was very sensitive to any kind of sexual stimulation. Needless to say, my natural charisma shot throug the roof during this period. Nothing else that I have done has ever made me feel like a high-test male than doing NoFap. It’s a great feeling. My request is that for some part of the podcast you talk about success stories from people you know, yourself, or other readers. I ask this because at about the 7-10 day mark (right now for some of your readers) the relapse urge really starts to kick in. I am still going strong, and whenever I feel the urge I make a point to go read success stories from around the internet, and also my journal from when I did 90 days. I aim to make this a permenant change, and never ejaculate again unless its during sex with a woman. The incredible scope of benefits from higher energy, mental clarity, increased strength and stamina, better looks from clear skin AND EYES ESPECIALLY, to even having a more pleasing body smell, are all too good to give up. Lastly, even if one is doing NoFap and doesn’t have a sexual outlet (doesn’t know how to get laid/no gf), the high energy gained from the discipline can be channeled into getting those things or into work/school/business/work on your mission.
Thanks for reading,
Godspeed with your mission this month, and thanks again for your work
