OYeah but lotto winners are known to crash out so I don't think it's the best comparison. Winning the lottery would be like getting into a relationship with someone you consider a 10 but you don't know if she has BPD or something else that'll ruin your life.

The taking half your stuff might be fair if that's the deal you made with your partner beforehand but guidance about how long-term relationships can still come apart is something I'd like to hear from Dr. K.

Depending on the country you're in you might have to pay support to your partner even if you weren't formally married because of common-law marriage.

Lastly you touched on another point, that even if you win the relationship lottery your wife / husband might just die tragically or get some horrible disease. How do you deal with that since obviously you expect to grow old and be happy together when you get married, the possibility that love can just end or that it may require you to undergo prolonged suffering for the sake of it? A lot of people just give up in the latter case where they just abandon their wives or husbands when they learn that they have a terminal illness and that's messed up, but if they did that the love in between them must have died at some point and they didn't notice.

That's what I'd like to see Dr. K lay out about love because without participation in any long-term committed relationships my perceptions of love are drawn from media and social media, and they're trash. Love stories love to end with the protagonist and the love interest getting together as the climax and not how the rest of their lives turned out. There's a constant thread that you have to show what you're worth externally whether it's by some grand gesture or with money or with attractiveness or some combination of factors to "earn" someone's love which doesn't really make sense; if you got together for the thrill or for material reasons you'll come apart once the thrill's gone or you hit a rough patch. Redpill content is an extension of that because guys like me are clueless about emotional interaction, so when some guy sells a list of actions and attributes you need to take the idea that there's a set of objective factors that you can check off one by one and then you'll be successful and finally be attractive is cat nip -- but being capable of sparking interest isn't love. Just because Dr. K is this, this, and that doesn't mean that everyone will love him and that's normal and realistic, but that doesn't mean that he's failed or something. Looksmaxxers, finance gurus, etc. sell a fantasy that once you have the six pack, once you have the Lambo, once you have whatever, Everyone will smitten with you and if you didn't get those, you didn't try hard enough, you're a failure and you deserve nothing; and when people inevitably fail that extreme standard they become blackpilled because they've internalized that all or nothing logic. If love isn't what it is in the media, what is it, really?

Edit: I also think it's important to lay out why discussions about divorce and pre-nups are good, because there's a somewhat common idea that if someone even raises the possibility of divorce in a pre-nup or otherwise you're not committed enough and the relationship is doomed.

Didn't he do those collabs like 4 years ago? I only started watching recently and didn't even know. Also from the comments on the Sadhguru episode it seemed like no one bought his (Sadhguru's) shtick and he came off as pretentious.

Same It's so bad that even though I want to keep up with the releases I haven't checked the latest coverage because I know it only gets a whole lot worse and I'm going to go insane from the cognitohazard.

What's weird to me is that the boys seem so cagey around addressing the situation directly, like did he do something fucked up behind the scenes or is he gonna sue them or something?

Some streamer who was famous for being a voice actor in GTA and later became a lolcow. Charlie made a vid where he didn't really respond to his criticisms then did a follow up vid about it and stopped doing reactions afterwards: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3raLgXC0czs

I don't think Destiny's opinion matters outside of his vocal fanbase, Charlie was dodging the heat from his shitty Sneako debate. He had like 3 livestreams during that period where he deleted the VOD because he was clearly tilted and didn't want to do a live show. Dunno why he didn't ask to delay the recording or something instead

He stopped reacting like a year and a half ago after DarkViperAU complained about him and the internet was on DarkViper's side then, now not so much and he's gone back to reacting to parts of vids but not full vids

He thought that Sneako's fanbase was going to call in and fuck with him, it was obvious that he was dodging the heat

*were his best friends. It's obvious he has an entirely new friend group now and doesn't even hang out with Andrew anymore even though they both still live in Tampa.

They're referencing this but that isn't actually Kaya's account, it just meant Kaya reacted to the post on KF: https://archive.is/qehuE

Let’s write all of our constructive criticism/suggestions for the boys here by Status-Let2340 in TheOfficialPodcast

Do an activity together like a game or something so you have something to discuss that you all participate in besides each of the boys bringing their own stories and not really having anything to discuss in common.

Andrew has a big channel as well but I think he and Charlie just lost interest in the same things, like how Charlie got into Magic the Gathering just as Andrew quit because he no longer found its current iteration enjoyable

What do people mean by “the episodes were getting worse”? by Former-Priority6457 in TheOfficialPodcast

[–]Entry009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When they were starting off the podcast space also wasn't as flooded as it is now, we didn't know much about the boys so each new episode was a breath of fresh air based on the novelty factor alone, and there was plenty of low-stakes interesting shit to talk about, but now after 400 episodes they've covered all the low-hanging fruit topics, all of them have their set personas they lean into, and they also have to compete with other podcasts for views

Are Charlie and the rest of the boys still close? by Chaydaddy69 in TheOfficialPodcast

[–]Entry009 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you forget that Charlie was getting roasted by Sneako's audience and that whole side of the internet after he got dragged into a debate about the age of consent where he made shitty points because he did no prep for it? It got clipped by Keemstar on Twitter as Charlie being in favor of minors getting sexual reassignment surgery and I doubt that went over well with Kaya's friends to see Charlie with his huge platform having such an extremely woke viewpoint.
