Ep 84Welcome back to the No Pills Podcast with Gordon McGee! In this episode, we dive into the craziness of the modern dating world and react to some wild viral clips.  We cover a range of topics, including:Vulnerable Narcissism in Women: We discuss how narcissism isn't always about arrogance and grandiosity. Instead, it can hide behind pain and trauma, which is then weaponized as a tool for control, especially in co-parenting situations. Research by Dr. Pinus and Kain describes vulnerable narcissists as "hypersensitive and control seeking through victim narratives." The Male Experience with Abortion: The video highlights a man's story about his girlfriend getting an abortion despite his pleas to keep the baby. The host notes that the male experience with abortion is not often discussed and that men are often stereotyped as not caring. Modern Dating and Media's Influence: The discussion touches on movie propaganda that portrays the "grown-up" man with a career as the villain and the "bad boy" as the hero. Women's Health and Modesty: A woman claims she can't reverse Type 2 diabetes, and the host criticizes this as a poor lifestyle mindset. Another clip debates the importance of modesty, with some women arguing that dressing revealingly is for their "mental health," a claim the host finds ridiculous. False Accusations: We discuss a shocking story of a man who was falsely accused of sexual assault and had to spend 11 months fighting the charge, even with video evidence. The host points out how false accusers hurt those who have been truly victimized. Join the conversation and let us know your thoughts on the modern dating marketplace and the topics discussed.

Darius, Leo, and Nico break down the viral video of a CEO caught cheating on the kiss cam — at a Coldplay concert. But the question isn't just who he cheated with… it's why men always fall for “office fit.”They dive into the male delusion around beauty, why Sydney Sweeney is the queen of attainable hotness, and why proximity and validation are all it takes to break a man's brain.Plus: stripper optimism, Jamie Lee Curtis conspiracy theories, Lena Dunham slander, and a brutal takedown of the trans trend parents are now pushing harder than their kids.If it's controversial, funny, or just a bit unhinged — it's in this episode.00:00 – Gash bombs10:00 – Coldplay Kiss Cam CEO: cheating or marketing stunt?20:00 – “Office Fit” theory & why Sydney Sweeney breaks men's brains30:00 – Jamie Lee Curtis intersex rumours & trans Hollywood kids40:00 – The irreversible trap: when parents push the trans trend50:00 – Lena Dunham

He's one of Australia's top dating and relationship experts, author of the book Make Him Yours: Beating the Odds of Modern Dating, and over the course of his career, he's coached more than 50,000 women in love, dating, and connection. We start the episode with Mark's story of going from shy guy to stripper (yes, you heard that right!), and how stepping into that unexpected world helped him overcome social anxiety and learn the art of flirting. Then we get into your dating questions as Mark shares how men and women date differently and what each gender wishes the other understood. We'll hear about why the apps aren't all that bad and how to make intentional invitations that create real-life dates — without chasing. And yes, we even talk about that one time Mark went undercover as a woman on dating apps to find out: what are the men doing? How can women actually get more of what they want? And why do women tend to date potential more than men? Mark brings a unique perspective to the dating game having coached both men and women for over a decade, and let's just say, he has seen it all.

Let me see if I've got this right: You're chatting with this man, and he's everything you've ever dreamed of. His answers are thought-provoking and emotionally intelligent. He asks questions back. He always has the perfect response…like, always. Every fucking time.
