Bill asks… (23:17)
Hi Victor, would you be willing to share a bit about the jobs you had before you began your journey as an entrepreneur, and perhaps how those jobs led you towards being your own boss?
The Orthovox asks… (1:16:46)
Victor, What are the defining traits of people who will always remain poor?
Karthik asks… (1:19:07)
What is actually *real* in society today? This seems like a simple question, but it isn’t. When we get to the core of the matter, politics is fake. Money is fake. Status is fake. Prestige is fake.
It seems like professional sports are the one area where merit still actually triumphs. Maybe the reason men love pro sports is because this is the one socially approved outlet where actual competitive spirit can be expressed without being shamed for it.
Farming is real. Architecture is real. Plumbing is real. Music is real. But other than all this, I struggle to find what is truly real.
JJ asks… (1:27:52)
Hey Vic, I’ve read many books on power tactics such as The 48 Laws of Power, The 33 Strategies of War, The Prince, The Art of War, etc. They all seem to advocate for a veiled, Machiavellian approach to winning in life.
When I read B&D; I get the sense that you advocate for a more open and aggressive style of gaining power/winning.
When do you believe it is appropriate to use covert/Machiavellian tactics and when is it appropriate to be outwardly assertive and BOLD?
Also, if I may ask, other than B&D; what do you believe are the top 3 books every man should read to develop his ability to gain power?
JP Moustique asks… (1:31:31)
Vic, why do you think these elite types always get a kick out of revealing who they are to us? Like Jones openly says he’s from an intelligence family, why do they keep rubbing it in our faces who they are? Would they want us to notice, or are they mocking us for not being able to see it despite putting it right in front of us?
Laszlo asks… (1:33:46)
If every major religion is a slave religion, who/what does an aspiring man who seeks the divine/higher truths turn to?
How does one find a true, authentic, master/spiritual guide/guru? Where do such wise men reside and how can they be reached?
“Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.” -Luke 17:21
RobertV asks… (1:36:03)
What do you think about men who still live at home with their parents well into their 30s? The automatic reaction in America and other highly individualistic cultures is to ridicule these people. I agree they deserve ridicule if they are spongeing off their parents, being lazy slobs, and not working at anything.
But in many developing countries and even in places like Italy, it’s pretty normal for a man to stay with his parents until his mid-30s, even if he has enough money to buy or rent his own property. Thinking back to before the explosion of capitalism, it was also normal to stay with your family, your tribe, for your whole life.
Randy asks… (1:40:08)
I’ve recently quit all vices. I’ve increased the intensity of my workouts with Red Beast. I’m on a 90-95% carnivore diet but fuck it, I like ice cream and pizza sometimes. I’m pursuing a new career in real estate. I like to read and enjoy spending quality time with my wife, baby and dog. Despite this I get bored or rather I feel unfulfilled living in clown world because I realize how retarded and unnatural modern life is, especially without vice. How do you deal with the depressing nature of modern civilization?
Gerasimo asks… (1:43:03)
Is hormesis worth it? You say white rice and wheat leave you feeling like crap but you are tempted once in a while to eat them. But is it REALLY worth the impaired body/mind?
I’ve been wondering-is it perhaps smarter to not do cheat meals, but rather do a cheat “side dish” or “cheat bite” where you have your regular clean meals with just a few bites of ice cream or a donut.
This was you get your taste of the shitty food (hell even grab a few bites of a Big Mac) without the lingering aftereffects of actually getting a cheat meal, plus by hormesis those few bites will be enough to keep your immune system sharp, almost like an immunization.
David asks… (1:46:09)
Any tips on how to become emotionless. I cry very easily.
R.H. asks… (1:47:21)
Why does a man buy a woman gifts or flowers? What are your thoughts on men giving gifts to women and do you think it makes a man look pathetic?
RobertV asks… (1:48:31)
Why do grown men obsess about watching Marvel and other superhero films? I see the entire Internet getting worked up about the latest Avengers movie. I am not against the idea of entertainment, it just seems to me that “men” who watch these sorts of movies are basically man-children.
Brad asks… (1:49:42)
Who are the freemasons?
Until next time.
Your man,
-Victor Pride
Victor how do you fit reading books into your schedule. How long do you read for?
Besides starting a blog what are some other ways you recommend that’ll get people out of the 8-5 torture.
Any recommendations for beta-thalassemia anemia? it lessens my energy, it’s been constant throughout my life. both my parents had it and passed it along to me and my sister
Also, very much looking forward to you talking about masonry. i am considering joining but am very hesitant.
Victor, can you please , if you don’t want to talk about it refer me to some resource to learn about this real estate thing?
“Any recommendations for beta-thalassemia anemia?”
Carnivore diet.
Happy birthday Vic’s beard.
The constant beeping in the autodialer at a call center drives you insane. I don’t miss it.
Congrats on the beard (or should I say “yeard” haha).
Are you in monk mode perpetually or would you consider a “fling” with an attractive, submissive non-American girl? Or do you find non-marital, non-procreational sex to be totally degenerate and would never engage in it again?
Just wondering if it is possible to like the beauty of girls, seeing pretty girls, etc without lusting after them in the slightest. Is it possible? I can do it with other forms of beauty, like a gorgeous building, but not sure if I can appreciate female beauty objectively without it being contaminated by lust.
What would you think about a relationship with a girl that has embracing, maybe kissing, she supports you fully, but you do not have sex, regular or oral? Is this feasible or is it better to just be a monk?
Thanks
Liam
“Are you in monk mode perpetually or would you consider a “fling” with an attractive, submissive non-American girl? Or do you find non-marital, non-procreational sex to be totally degenerate and would never engage in it again?”
I’ve already answered this question in depth and with no confusion.
I guess my question is, when you see and appreciate girls for their beauty, can you reach a point where you simply appreciate beauty without lusting after it in the slightest?
If you show me a stunning blonde with big breasts, I won’t be able to appreciate her as JUST a beautiful object. Part of my mind will lust after having her, touching her, being with her. Even if it is ever so slight. No matter how good my diet is. I have more self-control than 95% of men and even I can’t say I can be totally unfazed by raw female peak beauty.
That’s what I am saying-is it even physically possible to get to a point where you can view a beautiful girl as just another beautiful object, without even a hint of lustful possibility?
I assume you won’t ever have non-martial sex again, based on the fact that you said you already answered this.
Yes.
It is not hard killing this “urge”.
Normal sexual desire is different from the fantasising and lusting after a woman.
The problem is, people have been raised on “sex, sex, sex, sex, sex” and it is on their mind all the time. It is a way to put people to sleep. When you are thinking about sex all the time, fantasising, lusting, etc. this will override all your emotions and state of being. This is why sex is such a powerful tool.
If you are lonely, which most people are, sex will be on the mind to not have to feel this loneliness. Or when you are sad, depressed, angry, etc.
Sterile sex is an opiate for the masses. To keep them calm and make sure they do not leave the plantation.
Stop fantasising about sex, stop watching porn and you will see a lot of negative emotions will come to the surface after a while. Now you see how much of a drug it is and how it is used.
My advice. Have some kids. Be in the room during birth. Watch them pull your baby out. Blows. Your. Mind. I get chills just typing this thinking about it. My point is: you’ll never look at a female the same ever again after experiencing that.
Yes sex is used as a weapon. Sex addiction is a popular thing now. All these things are used by humans to not feel the pain. The problem is this pain is always there. There is no way to not feel this pain. Because this pain is caused by the lack of family, loneliness and other pain caused by modern living.
I do think it is good to feel the pain though. Because this pain will make you see. What is hurting me right now? Why do I feel pain? With those questions you will dive into your own soul and look for the answer. And then you will see.
Your body will tell you the truth. God will tell you.
I am not sure how I can not feel this pain completely. It seems to be able to live in this society you NEED a VICE. In a sense it is torture. You will see the truth and then you will be tortured until you die. Unless you bury the truth under a mountain of vices.
Maybe this is why they say the truth hurts.
Unless you get out of society and plant the seeds for a future generation. You plant the seeds of the trees the shadows you will never sit in (old Greek saying).
Sex is weapon since day zero.
Sex is someway a kind of trauma.
Trauma creates “hooks”.
Who controls the “hook” control the humans.
Hey Victor
I have read through your whole blog but could not find the answer. What is your take on bulking while on low/no carb high fat medium protein?
Do you need carbs on a bulk or can you bulk on keto as long as you’re in a surplus?
Asking because low carbs keep my face lean due to reduced water retention and bloar and I don’t feel like losing that due to bulking.
What’s the best way to stay in shape and kicking
If the gym no longer gives you pleasure and isn’t enjoyable after 3/4 years
make your own homemade gym…. buy a sandbag from home depot for $3~$4 for 50 lbs and… or buy 80 lb concrete mix dry cement powder bag… put it inside duffel bag, hang it… punch, kick, lift, slam… fill backpack with sand, do push ups until failure, take ice bath… fill your bathtub with ice. and cold water and immerse yourself for 10 to 15 min… go to liquor store or craigslist and get a keg… do keg lift… with water inside for added challenge… for further added challenge, have your buddy spray you with cold water at winter morning when it’s snowing or raining and do deadlift…
meat diet, no sugar, no carb, no coffee, no stimulant, no alcohol…
just Meat, animal blood, and water…. the same components that make up your body… YOU ARE what you eat… so meat, blood, and water… that’s all… it’s really all you need to survive and you get on this diet and you don’t have to “worry” about your testosterone levels because these diets will correct your testosterone levels in many ways … also avoid shampoo, soap and other unnatural man-made chemicals… it’s hard in real world but try to minimize it.
see the veins pop up from your body, feel invigorated, feel vitalized, feel energized… you clench your fist and you already feel like you want to go to war… …
BEST EPISODE YET!!! Well done sir, you’re on fire.
Damn vic you didn’t hold back punches on my question. I hear yeah stop acting like a pussy bitch. I had fun listening to your story. I bought monk mode internet pornography is the only vice I have
Don’t just buy it. FOLLOW IT.
Everything will change.
Are ALL gurus really fradulent? I mean, you’re a guru of sorts to so many young men who’s preaching the truth. You are imperfect as we all are but you are a vessel for truth/logos/the right way.
Others in the past have done that too. St. Francis. Confucius. many wise men, basically who have helped others see the light. Many of these men were more perfect than all of us.
So I don’t think it’s “all” gurus. A lot of em for sure though. Like that drug addict Osho lol. I have to ask, what is up with young women and their disastrous inability to pick good men to follow? All these young women, many quite attractive and from “good families”, ended up in his commune, screwing around with others and in orgies.
Do you think women should have their behavior controlled by men to not screw up their lives? It’s tougher for them. A PUA can become a husband and strong moral voice (Roosh).
But how many times have you seen a whore becoming a housewife/nun/woman of character? I’ve almost never seen that.
Thanks uncle Victor!
Christophe
“Are ALL gurus really fradulent? I mean, you’re a guru of sorts to so many young men who’s preaching the truth.”
“Thanks uncle Victor!”
LMAO!!!!!!!!
Guru’s are humans. That is it. None of them are all knowing. I don’t care who it is. That is why I always have disagreements with all the people I listen to. Including Victor Pride. Does not mean I don’t respect what he says. I do that is why I listen to him.
The people who fall for guru’s they want something or someone to submit to. I guess this is human nature. A lot of people want to submit to something.
A lot of people want it so bad they submit to whoever shows a bit of strength or power.
A good “guru” shows people the way and let’s them walk it themselves and make their own conclusions. He gives them tools to use.
The fraud guru’s just want you to admire them and give them praise.
All wise men are not themselves responsible for their ideas. God gives them the wisdom, and the best gurus are the ones that are humble. Being too attached to the person and the ego causes weird delusions that results in work that does no good. Look at Mike Cernovich. Mike Cernovich took too much credit for everything he did, and now is going off on weird, totally unproductive tangents, when a few years ago, he had absolutely amazing work. Now, he is a total joke. It’s all because of his narcissism and the fact that he took all the credit for his ideas.
Another one of your best episodes, Victor.
You had me cracking up at some of the job stories. Our similarities in drifting from job to job looking for answers is uncanny.
I worked a software job where I basically got paid for surfing the Internet as well, and it was there when I discovered B&D. As you say, fate is what brings people here, and I found B&D when I began searching for those answers.
Now I’m running my own business and I know I can never go back. It’s fantastic.
Thanks for always proving to be a Light in the Dark,
Nick
Interesting story on the jobs and shit. Now you’re free and wealthy, that’s what’s up.
Hey Vic,
What kind of meat do you recommend for the zero carb diet that is high in fat. I tried the ground beef smothered in tallow but that seemed to trigger my neuropathy. I seem to do better with fat the natural way. I can afford ribeye, do you have any other fatty suggestions?
Thank you
Ask the butcher for the fat they cut off of the steaks. Usually they’ll give it to you for free.
Thank you I will do that!
This was the best podcast episode yet Victor!
Thanks for being open and sharing ur story I think we can relate to it.
My question is how do you overcome the visa restrictions when traveling? How often do you stay in one country?
And second , what is the best country you ever visited ?
Should a man learn more than one language in his life? It seems that in many European countries, people know 2, 3, or 4 or more languages. Many great men of the past spoke multiple languages fluently and seems to help in doing the outside the box thinking.
Your travels to BA were interesting to hear. The reviews I have received were diametric opposite; heard it was spectacularly cheap, Parisesque, mildly dangerous, and highly enjoyable because of the energy.
Like you, the best way to experience the city and its essence is to walk around, feel the buzz, dip into random spots, duck the tourist traps, and feel your way through the natives.
Was laughing when you were describing our modern travel rating providers. Its damn near always ugly, bitter, finding myself, artificially high self esteem, dirty unattractive, faux gypsies who skimp hard. Guarantee they vote progressive.
Good share, bro.
Really great to hear about all your jobs. I can relate because when people were excited for me getting these “awesome jobs” and they would ask me if I liked it, I always refused to say that I liked it. Because it wasn’t true. My response would always infuriate them. This was just proof that they wanted me to lower my conciousness to their level of pity. Every minute was torture, hell on earth. Offices are places for liars. People who play games and do anything but to be truthful. They are weakness personified and therefore spreaders of evil. I even became corrupt and dark in the mind so I had to leave. They enslave themselves and sell their souls because they are spiritually empty. God gave me an eye for beauty. When I was a kid my “super power” was that I could draw realistically at a very early age. I couldn’t understand why everybody would draw stick figures when clearly, that is not how a human looked like. You draw as you see it. That is truth. How can everybody ignore the truth I thought to myself. This gift for seeing beauty has later evolved into product design and I’m working on my own products now. Who would I be to forget and turn away from the gift that God gave me only to get a stupid office job? God wants us to create.
Cool man.
I have an OK Office job in the sense that I don’t have to deal with office people. I am a system administrator and graphic designer. While I don’t like to sit behind a PC all day - and I take frequent breaks to go out and take a walk - I have it better than the average office worker. People are not watching what I do and often I can read books and do things for myself while getting paid. Some days I don’t have any work for 8 hours straight. So I work on other things for myself.
The bad thing about this job is I am forced to travel to this location and sit inside longer than I would like to.
The people who take office jobs very serious are the ones you cannot trust. Their identity is built in and around it. I know what an office job is. That is why I don’t take it too serious. I don’t get stressed out from my job EVER. Because it is fake. It is a job. It is not important enough to destroy yourself for it. So I always work at 50%. I work efficient - but never until sweat is on my forehead.
This is the problem. At school you learn that jobs are very serious and you need to put all your effort in it. And then what? You just put all your energy in someone else’s business.
I have noticed most office people don’t work that hard - yet they are still stressed. The bosses don’t work that hard.
A lot of it is pretence. In their head they are working hard because this is what they learned is “good”. But their behaviour says otherwise. They don’t work that hard.
Yeah, I agree. I think many take their office jobs too seriously because it consumes almost all of their awake time and energy. When I caved in and got a “cool” job as a copywriter at an office I noticed after having been there fore over a year, I had started to take the job too seriously to. Because I had invested so much effort and got nothing back. They only thing I had was the bragging “I work at this cool company” . But really it was just an illusion I portrayed outward towards friends and family so that they could say to their friends “I know this guy who got to work with so and so”. I was mad my effort was not recognized and to me bringing 100% is to be true. It’s logos. I could never play the game because it’s not being truthful to me. Something is or it isn’t. I understand that is what it takes if you are going to work such a place and not loose your sanity. Good that you have some freedom at least. Keeping your sanity is very important.
yes, most do a lot of pretending indeed. I realized the bosses were the biggest pretenders. I mean the real bosses, not their slave boy under managers. The bosses know about the halo effect for sure. Everyone treat them like kings because how they talk, walk, dress and what car they drive. Yes, they do have to make hard decisions but they are saved from the meaningless work which is forgotten.
Vic, I’ve recently come to the realization that earth and mankind was indeed created and that there is a creator and God. However, when beginning to read The Bible it has only felt dry and torturous. Many Christians take The Bible litteraly but I’m leaning more towards what you’ve said that there’s an esoteric meaning to it. Yesterday I spent completely disconnected from any distraction and just worked on my design skills. At night I said a prayer before bedtime thanking God for my gifts and wishing people in my life joy and prosperity. I also read The Bible but again I was struck with how dry and uninspiring it was. That night however I had a peculiar dream. It said to me that God can’t tell the difference between a prayer from a christian and one who does it from the 7th chakra. I have never read about chakras only heard about them years ago. Was this dream nonsense or did it try to tell me something. Is there any truth to it?
Uncle Vic,
I have a dilemma I need your advice on. I still work a crap job and I’m dedicating myself to my online business. My time is very limited right now. I don’t have much time to workout and prepare meals so I can gain weight. It’s very frustrating cause when I get home from work I’m dead tired. I force myself as best I can to stay up and get some things done. What can I do to get all the things done to reach all my goals?
Do you have any advice on preparing quick meals for on the go?
Eat raw meat. Nothing is quicker.
Hey Vic,
Would love to hear your thoughts on the following subjects.
1. Dental cleanings every 6 months in the USA.
2. 401(k) Retirement plans.
Thanks.
You should only go to a dentist if you need a decaying tooth ripped out or have a massive cavity that needs patching up. Dentist don’t heal teeth and cleaning them every 6 months will only help to deteriorate their health further.
Haven’t been to dentist for almost 10 years. I don’t use fluoride, don’t drink Coca Cola and don’t chew hard objects such as candy or ice. Have a good animal based diet rich in fats and your teeth will be healthy naturally.

If you had the money, should one put his child in a private school where other elites go?
I debate this possibility for my kids, as it is viable. But I still feel leftist degeneracy being taught even in private schools, they are not some amazing havens of pure truth, they are still corrupt.
So home schooling superior to public school for sure, but also superior to best private schools? What about connections/network for children.
Thanks,
Peitan
Uncle Vic,
How do I regain the natural sense of warmth and happiness I enjoyed as a child?
What’s Something You Think Every Person Should Experience In Their Lifetime?
Poverty and Hunger.
Hey Victor is it possible for you to put the podcast back up on Spotify? That’s where I listen to all my usual stuff and I’m sure many others do as well but I’m not sure if you’re aware or not you only have your stuff updated on there until podcast #3.
If this is at possible it would be highly appreciated! Thanks for all!
Jesse why not use Stitcher? It’s always up to date.
If I want to go to church and the church is far from my home, I’ll drive myself there every Sunday. I’ll not ask them if it is possible to build the church near my house.
I don’t need express permission to see what’s exactly in front of my face - “chemtrails”are a joke:
“Contrails are composed primarily of water, in the form of ice crystals. The combination of water vapor in aircraft engine exhaust and the low ambient temperatures that exist at high altitudes allows the formation of the trails. Impurities in the engine exhaust from the fuel, including sulfur compounds (0.05% by weight in jet fuel) provide some of the particles that can serve as sites for water droplet growth in the exhaust and, if water droplets form, they might freeze to form ice particles that compose a contrail.”
Hey Victor,
Just found your writings a month ago. Enjoying the content and look forward to every new podcast. I’ve saved up a bit of money and can go virtually anywhere right now. Idea is to go monk mode for ~3 months so I can hopefully get some income from a location independent business. My question for you is where in the world do you think is the best place to do this? My criteria are that the place can’t be too hot, it needs to be cheap, and access to quality grass fed beef would be nice.
Buenos Aires is a great fit. Great weather, great beef, very affordable.
Hi Vic, I’ve got some very important questions. I’ve just been reading some news and I’m shocked at how people are condemning Russia,China and Turkey for censorship when in the USA you get banned and deplatformed for not have far left views. Have the people in the USA gone mad or are they really that blind?
Second question what do you think will be of the USA in the years after the majority, minority change when whites are no longer the majority?
I believe the USA did this to themselves. They encourage immigration and whites not to have children. And your biggest sports apparel company pays millions of dollars to a guy who kneels and disrespects the national anthem and they encourage this. This is laughable cultural soucide and no wonder the USA will be crumbling in the not so distant future. Meanwhile look at China and how patriotic and anti immigrant they operate.
Ben,
Majority of Americans are patriotic and will not hesitate to sacrifice their live for America. Don’t underestimate Americans… . Do not believe the media. Majority of Americans are against that taking a knee crap with some football player named Kapernick taking a knee during anthem…
Why did you break up with the girlfriend who let you sit at her place?
Hi Victor.
I think I liked this podcast the best of all. It is very cool to hear your life’s story. I can really relate to you working all those jobs. I used to do the same.
I would like to hear what you all experienced in college and how this part of your life played out?
Keep it up Uncle Vic!
Could you
Hi Vic, do you see the short film “I, Pet Goat ||” an example of predictive programming?
Never saw it. Got a link?
https://youtu.be/6n_xCI-peq0
This video is creepy and it’s the first thing I thought of when I saw the Cathedral of Notre Dame burn down. You’ll see at the end… Just watch it with a guarded mind and reject the symbolism.
Predictive programming? The Illuminati? You know who?
Who knows…
P.S. There are several longer videos where people break down this symbolism pretty much frame by frame.
I’m not sure there’s a thing as white. I feel like whites often bicker and only artificially unite in diversitopias because the Jews pit minorities against Whites as a whole. But in Europe…the Spanish mock the portuguese. Hungarians hate Transylvanians. Russians hate Ukrainians. The Baltics fight with each other (Serbia vs Bosnia vs Croatia etc).
Nationalism is the only solution. White nationalism may be a tool propped up by the elites to destroy individual national identity in a way similar to globalism. Richard Spencer is obviously a fed as is most of the alt-right.
Your thoughts on this? How big should we make nations/tribes/identities before they become too large to be meaningful? Countries seem to be a good balance between small and big, particularly countries the size of those in Europe.
Cheers mate
Laszlo
Hi Uncle Vic,
What do you think of affirmation, visualization, and positive thinking? Lots of self-help teachers suggest practicing those things to help achieve success. Is doing those things really helpful? And how to do it the right way?
Thanks.
Hey Vic,
I remember in Podcast #34 “How to connect with god” you were discussing a farmland community in South America.
Would you mind sharing what country this was?
-LS
I have a question Vic… why do you think people betray their race? Like deep down, if everybody knows they should be with their own, then why do you think it is that they go against that? I understand the programming and 1984 and 2+2=5, but still, why? Like when I see a white girl with another race or a black girl with another race or Asian or whatever, I’m like, why are you doing that to yourself? Any race really too (I’m just white so I care the most about that) but still, any race? Why are you destroying what is beautiful and what you deeply down know isn’t you?
If you see another race with another race (as long as none of them are white,…) why should it matter to you…?
You said you are white… then you should only be against and worry about interracial mixing that involves whites…
if an asian dude wants to dog fuck a black girl. (both non-whites) .. why would it be any of your concern?
if you, as a white man, decided there was a good chance to fuck some non-white girl and she was mesmerizing you with sex…I’m sure you would take it for a quick lay lol
but despite what you see in the media, MAJORITY of humans prefer their own kind…
but when you do see interracial … do you know…
you know why? …
out of desperation and possible porn addict…
it’s not natural to be attracted to other race… it’s really not…
people are desperate for relationship these days so they will try to go for any basically and also because of porn genre… it might arouse sexual curiosity for others to try “something new” …
I do agree with you that each race should stick with their own kind but at the end of the day, it’s their choice… just like I”m against tattoos but many people will get them …
I agree with you brother. I’m just wondering in general. Like simple thoughts and stuff as to why people do it in the first place. I understand it’s not my choice, but I’m just wondering in general
Women who race mix have problems.
When I was in Japan I met plenty of women who were particularly interested in dating a white European male. I am white and European and it was easy to get with these women. But they all had problems and were outcasts in their own country. Because they are outcasts they look for other outcasts so they can rebel against society together.
I don’t think anything about these women when I see them in Europe. No pity, nothing. I just see it and I think “ah I see what you are”. A lot of them are not attractive and have a “loser” look.
A lot of these women are losers. Equivalent to the male loser.
Having lived in Asia for 4 years, I agree for the most part.
“But they all had problems and were outcasts in their own country.
……………………..
I just see it and I think “ah I see what you are”. A lot of them are not attractive and have a “loser” look.”

In a previous podcast you stated that a western woman has to be trained to be a good wife these days. How would you do that?
Hey Unc,
The time-old adage is: you are what you eat. We hear it all the time, especially when diving into nutrition at pretty much any degree.
Funny inquiry. If this is true, and we are feasting on glorious amounts of grass-fed ribeye and butter…would it follow that we become cattle/cows ourselves?
Thanks for your response,
[ r o i ]
“you are what you eat. We hear it all the time”
Yes…
that’s why you consume only
meat
blood
water
… we are made of meat, blood and water…
so that’s what we consume…
and you can’t go wrong on this diet because it will give you tremendous energy especially blood…
who needs coffee when you have blood? … you can also reduce some hours of sleep when you consume blood…
Truth in your words! Can you talk a little more about your blood consumption?
Introducing collagen powder & liver/liver jerky is also treating me well.
Best of luck, my Brother in Bold.
[ r o i ]
yes the blood consumption.
I look for ‘fresh’ blood (some supermarkets have them… not all of them… but you have to ask specifically at the butcher man…) you have to let him know it’s for consumption because there are others who use this for ‘other’ purposes ……
I only usually consume cow blood (like the masai tribe)… only difference I don’t consume them right away from the cattle since I go to the supermarket (the ‘middle man’) ……
I don’t consume a lot of them… I only consume like half cup of them… and do this few times a week… and either consume blood or raw garlic pre-workout… I’m thinking of adding liver more but I just am not a fan of it….
the days I consume blood, I can reduce my hour of sleep by 1~2 hours, and it would not make me feel groggy next day…
post-workout would be like boiled or raw eggs…
other than my majority of my diet is only raw (beef) meat and water (from copper bowl) and I may do cheat meals like once a week or so….
liver is another great source although I don’t really like it personally but I will consume liver only rarely… I eat raw garlic just before I workout at home… gives me that “anger” strength for me to lift much more…
pre-workout boost:
blood OR
garlic OR
small shot of scotch/whiskey
of course I do this when I workout at home… but when I workout at the public gym, I would consume some raw garlic
for added challenge, I’m going to workout in mind+body challenge and see how far my body and mind can take it to the next edge: … consuming raw garlic, cold shower, and sandbag squat (in the bathtub) at the same time…
Will do! Stopping by a tiny butcher shop who sources local animals later this week—be sure to ask about liver & blood/proper consumption!
How are the other areas of Monk Mode treating you? ie; meditation, stretching, NoFap, sleep…
[ r o i ]
Monk Mode is great book. I bought his book just to show support since I benefited a lot from his ‘old’ articles (2011 to 2015 ones..)
I can control my own sexual urges and whenever I feel the “urge”, I just workout like do push ups until failure so it keeps my mind away and I can transfer the energy in the right way… or do pull ups until I can’t do any….
since I”m getting bit older, I”m not as in mood anymore like I used to be when I was young…
If you can transmute your sex energy, the world is your oyster
as far as sleep is concerned, I make sure that I get a boost of cold shower in the morning and workout during noon to make my body ready later on….. and warm bath at night time helps although I don’t follow this routine everyday … I used to take melatonin everyday ( I would advise against that) and to this day, take melatonin although now I do in cycles…
Combining Melatonin with Meclizine accelerates the effect but you feel very tired and groggy next morning… so normally I just make sure I try to relax as much as possible and not think about anything and make my mind empty and close my eyes…
I don’t really need that much sleep… I can function fine even with 5 hours of sleep….
I don’t meditate.
Some of the stretches that I do are the cobra stretch and stretch while laying flat on the floor with arms and legs stretched in opposite direction…
Is copyright protection a good thing or is it just a scam to make people in the law industry rich?
Considering that books in the past are not protected by copyright and yet have a longer lifespan than today’s bestsellers’; and that people can still steal your ideas even though your books are copyrighted, do you think it is wise for a writer to ignore the matters of copyright protection and focus 100% of his energy on spreading his words/ideas and gaining fame?
Speaking about mental strength…
I had a period of time when I felt nearly invincible. I was fearless, cheerful, in good spirits, and even thought I was fully enlightened like the saints of yore.
Then I had a nightmare in which I dreamed that the person closest to me in the world (a sibling) was brutally killed before my eyes.
I woke up in a cold sweat, my heart racing like a cocaine-indulged stallion, my fingers trembling as if I had been tasered.
I realized then that my journey to perfect control over the mind is far from over. I am still very imperfect. My enlightenment was not perfect because the viccisitudes of the world can still dampen my mental state.
Vic, getting mastery over our addictions is one thing. How do we reach that state when nothing that happens in the material world, including losing all we have and our closest kith and kin, don’t affect us?
My nightmare came after I read Roosh’s heart wrenching piece on watching his sister die an agonizing death after battling lung cancer. I have not cried in 10 years. I am rugged and steely eyed. After reading his piece, my eyes glistened.
I would love to see you address human bonds, emotional connections with others, and mental control over all these “natural” or “good” mental cravings as well.
Regards,
Karthik
Why would you want nothing to affect you?
Roosh’s piece on his sister’s death was really one of the most moving pieces I’ve ever read.
I’m usually very emotionless, but that piece stirred something up.
I lived at my uncle and aunt’s house until I turned 35, but I was paying a good amount for rent, when I got into my apartment, it was weird at first because there wasn’t always people coming in and out, but I quickly realized that I should have moved out years ago.
Hey Vic how important is having hope?
Hey Vic. You have discussed about how women use abortions and birth controls as protection while having casual sex. But what about women who are raped? In their case doesn’t abortion become a proper solution? They do not want to raise the child of a rapist and no real man would marry a woman who has been raped. What are your thoughts on this?
I’m totally against abortion but doesn’t it seem like something we can consider it in such a situation?
How the woman gets pregnant isn’t the issue. It’s about the child inside of the mother being an innocent, living human being that deserves to live. If the mother is unable to take care of the child, there are plenty of families who will adopt the child.
Rape cases are less than 1 percent of abortions.
Plus all pregnancies should be looked at as a blessing.
Hey Victor. I have noticed that when I get down to hard work ‘grit’ I often start to feel depressed. For example I am making it a habit to step away from TV and engage in improving my posture for 20 minutes a day (work) or even something as simple as sleep, but then I start to feel depressed as if my hard work is something evil rather than good for me. I know this is not natural and I believe it has to do with social conditioning, mindset and immaturity. Could you please discuss further on this. My goal is to model in June and start a fitness business.
Hey Victor thank for the great podcast. You say eating carbs/sugars occasionally for hormesis is not worth it because it impairs the mind. Would you recommend eating these foods occasionally for building muscle? My current diet is 90% meat, beef, steak, eggs and bacon and chicken. I really would like to build muscle to improve my physique.
Carbs don’t build muscle, they build fat.
Hands down absolute favorite episode of the podcast.
It puts all those bits and pieces from classic BnD into a new context. It’s nice to see the larger picture of the man behind the blog.
Can relate a ton. Jobs suck. Since 2018 I’ve had like 20 of them. But I’ll be getting out a lot sooner than I ever thought possible simply because of the knowledge that’s been shared on the blog.
Thank you Vic.
Is it possible to eliminate gyno without surgery? I’ve had it since I was a teenager and have never taken steroids.
Carnivore diet and fasting.
Victor ; What do you think about statement”Women are children” is not a metafor for many its a fact. Why? Becouse they say that women have no biological need to mature “More” after puberty, thats why they stay teenagers for their whole life.
Nature dont demand more from women then to take care of children and produce them. Thats why.
Thoughts?
Dear Unlce Vic,
I just got the email from Red Supplements that Red Monkey is being banned. This has to be at least the third supplement that you had to stop selling. Why are the ingredients in your supplements being banned all the time?
Tyler
Probably because they work. Governments only allow supplements that don’t work in the ways promised.
Phenibut dude. It actually works. I used Dave Asprey’s GabaWave which was a liquid / liposomal form of phenibut. He stopped selling it… how that shiz was legal was beyond me.
I’m going to grab some Red Monkey and some phenibut powder before it’s gone.
This is the type of stuff that gets banned. It puts you in god mode. They don’t want you in god mode for obvious reasons.
Hey Unc, inquiry for the next podcast:
Are there any perceivable benefits to consuming one’s own urine? Admittedly seems gross, but the amount of reusable material in urine also seems to be quite abundant, ie; tons of data is gathered from one urinalysis. The only other substance that voluntarily comes out of our member is semen, which is vitality. Any thoughts?
Thanks bruv,

Hi Vic, I enjoyed your story about your travel to Argentina. My questions is did you travel alone and in general do you prefer to travel alone or with someone else?
I will be going to Europe to visit family and was thinking about doing a tour with a group of people who I don’t know. Many people have suggested not to travel alone or without someone you know.
Hi Vic.
Thanks for body of a Spartan, 4 years now and I am at the pinnacle in terms of strength and asthetics.
What do you do to stay in shape if you no longer find pleasure in the gym, when going to the gym becomes a burden
What are practical ways to back yourself into a corner, and force success
You have to want to do it. If you don’t want to do it, you won’t do it. Simple as that. If you want to want to do it, say this to yourself: “I love going to the gym.”
Sound advice.
I think a lot of readers would be very interested in hearing a 19 things every 19 year old should do/know
Or something similar
On your blog, these types of posts were highly enjoyable, and could be just as enjoyable on the podcast
Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
Daud,
Something similar has already been written by Victor - on several occassions. They were only a simple search away.

You’re welcome.
Victor,
I never had a dad or uncle to look up to. But you have played that role in my life in ways nobody ever could.
Please accept my eternal thanks and gratitude.
Hey Vic, have you ever delved into the works of Julius Evola? If so, what your stance on his philosophical views, especially with revolting against the modern world and returning to traditionalism? Lastly, do you believe in any sort of Indo-European Paganism?
Hey Vic,
I’ve seen you’ve been reading really old books lately.
How do you find these hidden gems?
Do you think they’re better than the books of our era?
This episode really resonated with me.
I also had to deal with crazy gypsies nightly at a previous job, then i worked at a call center doing surveys for a few years. I made it to manager but still hated it.
The way you described your hometown jobs reminded me of Wichita, is that where you’re from too?
I am just 1 week into Monk Mode, and Victor ; I got to tell you. I feel damn awaken for the first time of my life, everything seams crystal clear about what I want to prioritize in my life (Making music and spending time with my son and my family) And in the future get money from the music-stuff and have more children with another girl (IF she finds me and are not a stinking hippie-wannabe)
It just makes so damn clear that all the vices, all the sex, all the searching for “freedom and happyness” is just disractions from your OWN damn core values.
Victor, Im 30 years old and chocked to realize NOW that women are a totalty waste of time if you cant have children with her and start a family.
I cant even understand how a man can have a girlfriend for YEARS and not produce a child with the girl, what a fucking waiste of time. Spemd 5-15 years for what? Just to have a girlfriend? Its fucking sick as hell all the time that gets wasted that can get used to get good at something
Hi Victor,
Sorry to hear about the sore throat. On the plus side, the delay probably makes our anticipation of the next podcast even greater!
Regards.
Hey Vic, you have tons of questions so maybe you can answer this here instead of the podcast.
My sister is interested in getting Monk Mode, but she’s not sure if it’s suitable for women.
So the question I have is this — have any women *successfully* completed your Monk Mode program and given you a positive testimonial?
That’s all she needs to buy. One testimonial of completion and benefiting from a woman.
Thanks!
Tell her to buy it, read it, follow it for a few days or a week. If it isn’t for women, get a refund. The refund is offered within 60 days.
There is a beautiful short story from the fictional masterpiece The Brothers Karamazov about how Jesus came back to earth but no one could recognize him.
Here’s a summary of the story (very short, just a page, the real manuscript is hundreds of pages). Let us know what you think after reading. I guarantee it’ll intrigue you. Incredible little story.

Monk Mode Questions
Hi, I am in day 2 of Monk Mode and loving it so far. I have some questions for clarification.
1) There is no mention of taking notes after evening meditation - do I take notes?
2) It says I can drink tea, is this black? or can it be with milk? I’m currently drinking black
3) Can you listen to the B&D podcast on Monk Mode?
4) Can you eat eggs as part of the 1 meal?
5) I am confused about the monk mode routine (page 23). Are lines 7 & 9 the same or different? Is line 7 a second bout of morning meditation? If so they conflict with line 12 or is one a repeat?
6) On page 40 it says i will meditate for 3 hours a day. The initial routine is more like 10 + 20 + 10 and works up 5 min per meditation per week to 25 + 40 + 25 which equals 1.5 hours a day by week 4. Am i missing something or misinterpreting?
7) Page 44 for evening meditation it says “Start with 10 minutes every morning for the first week” - minor typo.
When I have competed the whole program I will post a full review on http://www.successwithbipolar.com (my Monk Mode Project) but I will not cover any spelling errors or anything; just the results, how I felt and how I benefited ect.
Do you ever get lonely
Hey Vic,
Happy birthday to your beard!
What’s your process for creating blog, podcast, and YouTube content?
Cheers,
Ryan
Vic, you have hundreds of questions so mine probably won’t make your show. but if you can answer here or point to an article you wrote that addresses it that would be great.
I’m fairly new to your stuff.
If you were physically attracted to someone who is forbidden for you to have, what steps would you take to become emotionally UNattached? You can’t get this person out of your life for various reasons, however. Not direct family but family connection, so I can’t just never see her anymore or stop talking to her altogether.
I’m asking for myself of course. Looking to detach emotionally and not be attracted any more.
Of all people I figured you’d have the answer.
It’s all in the mind. Stop obsessing about because you are making it worse. Accept that it won’t happen, can’t happen, will never happen, and tell yourself you don’t want it to happen. It’s all in the mind.
I disagree with the point about living with your family.
No-one should be ridiculed full stop.
Also yes we would have lived together in a tribe, however we would have had our own teepee, shack, hut, cabin, tent at a younger age than 18, and you’d be able to spread your wings when you want, instead of feeling trapped by how expensive it is to move away.
Either way it causes tensions within the family house.
