If you have been around Good Looking Loser and similar communities, you've probably heard of Mike from Danger & Play. If not, absolutely bookmark his site.

Either way, I want to tell you about Mike.

In the past month, I've gotten to know him on a personal level. (no homo)

I consider Mike a role model. 

I don't throw around the term "role model" very often.

In fact, I don't even think I've used it on the blog at all.

Mike is a role model in every sense of the word, praise of the highest caliber. 

Not just for younger guys that are into all the immature stuff we talk about on Good Looking Loser.

But to me.

Mike is exactly where I want to be when I turn 37.

Fun life, free time, hot supportive girlfriend, wealthy and still looking good.

Financially and emotionally secure.

Running shirtless sprints on the Santa Monica beach while onlookers think, "Who the heck is that guy?"

Mike is one of less than a handful of guys that I can literally talk to on the phone for 2 hours and not say a word - simply just soaking up insight and his life experience.
(Scotty is one of the others)

Mike is a walking encyclopedia of men's health expertise and advanced quality of life issues.

He has me obsessed with beet juice, skin care and cutting-edge hormone replacement alternatives. Among other things.

As humbly put as possible - there's not that many people that I can learn a great deal from on the issues that are important to me. Mike is one.

It's not surprising that when I do Google searches for specific outside-the-box, who-the-hell-really-knows-about-these topics, I often come across Danger & Play for the answer. His website is a goldmine. 

It was a pleasure to record with him and I hope we do more than the future.

0:00 Welcome Mike from Danger & Play (and Fit-Juice.com)

1:20 Funny metaphor 

If Chris from Good Looking Loser is the big brother you never had, Mike from Danger and Play is the step-father you never had.

"If Chris @GoodLookingLosr is your big brother, think of Mike as your stepdad that uses steroids." - I lol'ed. http://t.co/ndYhVCN1lE

21:40 The guys of Good Looking Loser (from Scotty's perspective)

22:10 The Good Looking Loser forum has been slowly earning the reputation as the "Most Sexually Active" forum and why most people succeed here (we only appeal to guys with real potential).

This is one example of many: 

23:10 Why Chris has become politically correct and rarely flips out on anyone in real-time or the Internet.

23:45 College discussion begins - Should You Go to College?

24:05 If you are in your early twenties, not yet successful (and don't have $100,000+ in the bank) don't give advice on whether your peers should go to college. Even if you are correct, you are not qualified to speak on the issue.

25:45 Mike's academic history and the debt measuring stick - is college worth it?

27:05 Mike's suggestion if you do go to college.

27:45 Go to a student loan calculator to see how much college will impact you financially.

28:30 Chris thought that everyone who doesn't go to college will be working at McDonalds and shooting up heroin on the streets.

31:15 Mike suggests to be 'all in' academically if you go to college, but still wishes he slept with more girls in college.

33:00 If you don't Get Laid a lot in college, you'll probably regret it. Everyone I've talked to about it agrees.

34:50 Mike's advice to guys in their early 20's. "No, No and No."

36:15 You shouldn't know your life purpose in your early 20's. It's not a bad thing.

37:00 You're 20's (the entire decade) is for experimentation.

37:25 How does Chris have time to write Good Looking Loser and Lifestyle by Good Looking Loser and go out all the time to party and hit on girls?

38:00 Mike discusses what would have happened if Chris stayed in Law School.

38:30 Stop trying to be a multimillionaire by age 30 and forgoing your social/sex life.
