Imran ibn Mansur (formerly “Dawah Man”) sits down with Faisal to unpack the rebrand, the regrets, and the mission he's now chasing. He explains why he “killed” the Dawah Man persona, the context behind viral clips from the masjid, and what changed as he started working with 7–9 figure Muslim entrepreneurs. We get into his “Victory Code” (7 pillars for building anything that lasts), the danger of the tongue for creators, platform nuance (Snapchat, social media), leadership, and how to run Muslim projects with real data, KPIs, and vision. Imrān also addresses past tensions, why he took a video down, and what Righteous & Rich / The Cave actually do. What we cover: Why he “killed” Dāwah Man (brand, audience, leverage) Viral masjid clip: the full story and what he learned Regret, reconciliation, and removing a video From street da‘wah to serving CEOs & founders The “Victory Code” Building Muslim networks that move capital, talent, and impact Books shaping his thinking (Built to Last, Insanely Simple, Actions of the Heart)

Should We Legalize Prostitution? The Sexual Frustration Crisis Men Are FacingThis episode tackles one of the most controversial questions of our time: Should prostitution be legal? But it's not just about policy — it's about the sexual shame, frustration, and isolation that's destroying men in silence.Faisal, Chuck, and Ari dive deep into the reality that most people won't discuss: Men are sexually starving in sexless marriages, endless single streaks, and a culture that celebrates women's emotional needs while shaming men's physical ones.What we unpack:Why men have 20x more testosterone but nowhere to express their sexual needs without being labeled "creepy" or "predatory"The double standard: Women get therapy, safe spaces, and sex toys while men get shame and secrecyHow sexual repression creates the very dysfunction we're trying to avoid — porn addiction, affairs, and dark obsessionsReal stories from strip clubs and escort experiences that reveal what men are actually seeking (hint: it's not always what you think)The difference between sexual gratification and true intimacy — and why men confuse the twoWhat happens when couples have mismatched sex drives and one partner holds the other "hostage"Whether legalizing prostitution would help or hurt men's ability to form real relationshipsThe hard questions: Is denying men a healthy sexual outlet forcing them into dysfunction? Are we already "paying for sex" through expensive dates and gifts? If women can seek emotional support outside marriage, why can't men seek physical release?This isn't about promoting or condemning — it's about having the honest conversation that society refuses to have. Whether you're married, single, or somewhere in between, this episode will challenge how you think about male sexuality, relationship dynamics, and what we actually need versus what we think we want.Warning: This conversation goes places most won't. If you're uncomfortable discussing male sexual needs openly, this episode will push your boundaries. But that discomfort might be exactly what you need to examine.Subscribe to the Nice Guy Show newsletter to get tips and insights on how to lead a high-value life:https://niceguyshow.com/Connect with Faisal Khokhar:https://masculine.co/https://instagram.com/coachfaisalkhttps://youtube.com/@coachfaisalkConnect with Chuck Chapman: https://chuckchapman.com/https://instagram.com/chuckchapman.ma/https://youtube.com/@chuckchapmanConnect with Dr. Ari Graff:https://drarigraff.com/https://draribgraff.com/register [divorce recovery program]https://youtube.com/@AriGraff

South Asia, the British Empire, and the Rise of Classical Legal Thought: Toward a Historical Ontology of the Law (Oxford UP, 2024) considers the legal history of colonial rule in South Asia from 1757 to the early 20th century. It traces a shift in the conceptualization of sovereignty, land control, and adjudicatory rectification, arguing that under the East India Company the focus was on 'the laws' factoring into the administration of justice more than 'the law' as an infinitely generative norm system. This accompanied a discourse about rendering property 'absolute' defined in terms of a certainty of controlling land's rent-and made administrable mainly as a duty of revenue payment--rather than any right of ostensibly physical dominion. Leaving property external to its ontology of 'the laws, ' the Company's regime thus differed significantly from its counterparts in the Anglo-common-law mainstream, where an ostensibly unitary, physical, and disaggregable notion of the property right was becoming a stand in for a notion of legal right in general already by the late 18th century. Only after 1858, under Crown rule, did conditions in the subcontinent ripen for 'the law' to emerge as a purportedly free-standing institutional fact. A key but neglected factor in this transformation was the rise of classical legal thought, which finally enabled property's internalization into 'the law' and underwrote status and contract becoming the other key elements of the Raj's new legal ontology. Formulating a historical ontological approach to jurisprudence, the book deploys a running distinction between the doctrinal discourse of (the) law and ordinary-language discourse about (the) law that carries implications for legal theory well beyond South Asia. Arighna Gupta is a doctoral candidate in history at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. His dissertation attempts to trace early-colonial genealogies of popular sovereignty located at the interstices of monarchical, religious, and colonial sovereignties in India and present-day Bangladesh.

You second-guess every decision. You overthink every conversation. You're constantly worried about doing the wrong thing, upsetting someone, or messing up. Sound familiar? That's what we're diving into in this episode: why nice guys don't trust themselves — and how that lack of self-trust is sabotaging every relationship in their lives.Chuck, Ari, and Faisal get real about their own struggles with self-doubt, people-pleasing, and that paralyzing fear of being wrong. Because here's the brutal truth: if you don't trust yourself, nobody else will either. Not your partner, not your kids, not your team.We break down:Why nice guys outsource their decisions and avoid conflict at all costsHow childhood programming taught us that being "good" is more important than being honestThe shame spiral that keeps men stuck in analysis paralysisWhy women can sense when you don't trust yourself (and why it's such a turn-off)Practical steps to rebuild self-trust through consistency and accountabilityHow to stop looking for validation and start validating your own decisionsThe power of leaning into tension instead of always taking the easy way outThis isn't just about making better decisions — it's about reclaiming your masculine core and becoming the kind of man who knows what he thinks, what he wants, and where he's going.If you've been living someone else's blueprint instead of your own, this conversation will wake you up. Time to stop asking for permission and start trusting yourself.

Artificial Intelligence is no longer just a buzzword or looming concept—it's a rapidly evolving force that's fundamentally transforming the landscape of business, society, and leadership itself. For leaders, AI presents both revolutionary opportunities and profound threats, disrupting traditional models of value creation, workforce engagement, and even redefining what it means to lead. The convergence of AI technology with cultural, economic, and geopolitical factors creates an unprecedented level of complexity and potential impact on humanity. Effective leaders must grapple with questions about short-term efficiency versus long-term human value, the delicate balance between productivity gains and workforce well-being, and the ethical implications of deploying intelligent agents in business and society.

Faisal Saeed Al Mutar joins The Winston Marshall Show for a powerful conversation on freedom, reform, and the unfinished business of the Middle East. Faisal is an Iraqi refugee who lived through the chaos of Saddam's fall and the U.S. invasion. He recounts his journey from Baghdad to America, and how those experiences shaped his mission to promote secularism, literacy, and critical thinking in the Arab world. He exposes how extremism thrives on ignorance, and why authoritarian regimes—from Iraq to Qatar—use culture, religion, and oil wealth to maintain power.They discuss the failures of U.S. foreign policy, Trump's controversial deals with Gulf states, and the ongoing struggle for genuine reform in a region caught between dictatorship and jihadism. Faisal argues that real change must come from empowering young people with ideas, not weapons.All this—the Iraq War, Qatar's influence, the dangers of authoritarianism, and one man's fight to build a freer Middle East…-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To see more exclusive content and interviews consider subscribing to my substack here: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Substack: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/X: https://twitter.com/mrwinmarshallInsta: https://www.instagram.com/winstonmarshallLinktree: https://linktr.ee/winstonmarshall----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Chapters 00:00 Introduction 04:52 Christopher Hitchens' Influence and the Iraq War17:23 Obama's Foreign Policy and Its Impact on Iraq 28:22 Trump's Foreign Policy and Qatar's Role45:51 Qatar's Influence on American Institutions 52:15 Syria and the Persecution of Minorities1:05:51 Recognition of Palestine as a State 1:29:23 Conclusion and Final Thoughts Hosted on Acast.

An AI leadership framework that balances innovation with responsibility is essential for 2025 success, as thought leader Faisal Hoque reveals the groundbreaking OPEN and CARE methodology that helps leaders navigate the complex hybrid world of human-AI collaboration. Bottom Line Up Front: Leaders must become multidisciplinary systems thinkers who can manage both human resources and digital agents simultaneously. The most effective AI leadership framework combines opportunity exploration (OPEN) with catastrophic risk prevention (CARE) to create sustainable AI business strategy that serves humanity while driving innovation. From Human Authenticity to Strategic Implementation: Part 2 of Our AI Leadership Series This is Part 2 of our exclusive two-part interview series with bestselling author and thought leader Faisal Hoque. In Part 1: "Women in Leadership AI: Preserving Human Authenticity While Harnessing Technology", we explored what makes us uniquely human, the importance of leadership authenticity, and how to protect your agency while leveraging AI tools. Now, in Part 2, we dive deep into the practical implementation side: How do you actually build an AI leadership framework that works? Faisal reveals his proprietary OPEN and CARE methodology—a systematic approach to AI governance framework that balances innovation with ethical responsibility. The Hybrid World Reality: Why Traditional Leadership No Longer Works The Death of Process-Performance-Structure Leadership The old leadership paradigm is obsolete. As Hoque explains, "When I started my career, we used to think very much about process performance and organizational structure. Those kind of started to fade away. And we started talking about emotional intelligence, mindfulness, and inspiration and influence." But even that evolution isn't enough for our current AI business strategy demands. Today's leaders face an unprecedented challenge: managing hybrid workforces that include both human employees and AI agents. What Hybrid Leadership Actually Means Most people think "hybrid" refers to remote versus office work. That's wrong. In the context of AI leadership framework development, hybrid means something far more complex: Three Types of Hybrid Leadership: Hybrid Markets: Your customers interact with both human representatives and AI agents (like Netflix's algorithm suggesting your next show) Hybrid Workforce: You manage both human resources and digital resources, working together and sometimes replacing each other Hybrid Leadership Decision-Making: As a leader, you're not just saying "Faisal is going to do this and Sabrina is going to do that"—you're also allocating: "My customer agent is going to do this, and my chatbot is going to do that" The New Leadership Requirements Modern leaders must be both emotionally intelligent AND systems thinkers. This used to be the job of IT or technology people, but that's no longer true. In today's AI governance framework, every leader at every level must understand how people and technology coexist. The CARE Framework: Your AI Ethics Framework for Risk Prevention Why Risk Planning Is Critical in AI Governance Framework Most leaders are not prepared for AI's potential negative consequences. They focus entirely on opportunity while ignoring catastrophic scenarios. The CARE framework forces leaders to think preventatively. CARE: The Four-Step Risk Methodology CARE is also an acronym that ensures responsible AI framework implementation: C - Catastrophize Scenarios Identify the most catastrophic outcomes possible from your AI implementation Consider impacts on employees, customers, and society Think beyond immediate business metrics A - Assess Impact Evaluate ripple effects across your ecosystem Consider job displacement consequences Analyze long-term societal implications R - Risk Mitigation Develop guardrails and governance structures

Ari, Chuck, and Faisal dive deep into one of the biggest complaints they hear from men: "My wife never initiates sex anymore." Whether you're in a dead bedroom situation, feeling like you're always chasing, or wondering if you stopped initiating whether sex would happen at all… this conversation is going to open your eyes.We get into:Why "it's always the masculine's job to initiate" might actually be trueThe difference between initiation and seduction (and why women do it differently)How you've probably been approaching sex all wrong — like a "sexual camel" waiting for waterWhy your wife isn't initiating (hint: it's not about her libido)The real reason men crave initiation from women (it's not what you think)How to rebuild attraction and polarity when the spark has diedWhy being a "nice guy" who does the honey-do list isn't foreplayThe connection between sex appeal, effort, and actually being desirableThis one's for every man who's ever thought "Why am I always the one?" or "She used to want me all the time." Listen. Learn. Start showing up differently. Because the problem isn't that she doesn't want sex — it's that she doesn't want sex with the man you've become.Time to change that.Subscribe to the Nice Guy Show newsletter to get tips and insights on how to lead a high-value lifehttps://niceguyshow.com/Connect with Faisal Khokhar:https://masculine.co/https://instagram.com/coachfaisalkhttps://youtube.com/@coachfaisalkConnect with Chuck Chapman: https://chuckchapman.com/https://instagram.com/chuckchapman.ma/Connect with Dr. Ari Graff:https://drarigraff.com/https://draribgraff.com/register [divorce recovery program]https://youtube.com/@AriGraff

Faisal Hoque: Transcend Faisal Hoque is an award-winning entrepreneur and innovator and founder of SHADOKA and NextChapter. He is a three-time Wall Street Journal bestselling author of the books: Reinvent, Everything Connects, and Lift. He has just released his newest book: Transcend: Unlocking Humanity in the Age of AI*. The most compelling use cases for AI aren't people OR AI – it's both. Leaders who learn how to partner with AI will almost certainly open doors that many others don't. In this episode, Faisal and I explore (a few steps on) how to get started. Key Points While we think about working with AI as very different than working with people, similar mindsets and skillsets help us with both. Partnering will with AI means asking better questions and being genuinely interested in the answers. Experts are limited by their perspective. Beginners are open to possibilities. We should approach AI with a beginner's mindset. Using AI well means getting more comfortable with uncertainty. We need to own our ignorance. Playful discovery helps with our intrinsic motivation to keep going. When using AI, find the fun that keeps you engaged. This technology will do the logical work far better than any human. To partner well, work to increase your emotional intelligence.
