Manclan Episode 1: Liver King vs the Soy Boys
Added 2022-10-03 16:00:09 +0000 UTCMeat as manliness. We explore the origins of “soy boy” and the rise of internet sensation Liver King (aka Brian Johnson) who looks like a cartoon caveman on steroids and calls himself a lifestyle coach, CEO, and “primal” — all while owning a mansion, a fleet of vehicles, an array of guns and even a private jet. Behind his carefully crafted social media shenanigans, of course, Liver King owns a dozen companies selling a vast array of supplements to his followers.
Manclan is a new podcast series by Annie Kelly and Julian Feeld exploring the digital world of masculinity influencers, esoteric manliness rituals, and alpha men. Covering everything from pick up artists to weightlifters, from New Age health perverts to neo-fascists, it’ll also be touching on the pre-internet history of masculinity and men’s movements.

Our ancestors were cooking before they were human. Cavemen had already been cooking for millennia by the time they were "men." We coevolved with fire, and our whole physiology has been shaped by use of fire. We aren't coated in our own fur and we have entirely different guts than the carnivores that eat raw kills. I mean we all know this is stupid shit but like, some fun facts here.

2023-01-18 03:07:47 +0000 UTCAt the end of November, the Liver King admitted he's been taking $11K worth of steroids a month to maintain his body shape. I'm not laughing. Yes, I am.

2022-12-27 10:28:10 +0000 UTCJust look up the image of Gout Crystal. Yikes! Sharp shards protruding through the skin from crippled joints. They call gout the rich man's disease caused by meat and alcohol. Sadly, he'll either suffer that or a heart attack.
2022-11-25 21:29:35 +0000 UTCFingers crossed there’s a hodge twins episode

2022-10-22 03:09:44 +0000 UTCThis dude sounds like The Ultimate Warrior whenever he talks
2022-10-12 18:13:17 +0000 UTCI used to be into the paleo/ancestral movement which then led into being big into CrossFit. And this guy sounds like so many libertarians I had the displeasure to know. The way he raises his kids sounds like Sevan Matossian who’s a POS I wish the world knew more about.

2022-10-08 07:51:19 +0000 UTCThis is so great but also inflicting massive psychic damage. As a lifelong vegetarian tired of dudes telling me eating steak will improve my chronic incurable illnesses, I am both very triggered but also enjoying this a lot. Amazing!!! Can't wait to hear more.
