It's Andy a lot of you leave comments Tell me that you need help do me a favor. I'm gonna take the best way to get a hold of me Shoot me a text message right now<PHONE_NUMBER><PHONE_NUMBER>. I'll help you with whatever you need. I got your back for life Let's get back to the video. Awesome. So Jonathan love you Honor of the company. Well first off. Thank you for having us really appreciate that. Yeah, so this is Stacy Obviously, you know, she's a VP of sales and for us really Eight years ago. Well actually more like 10 years ago when I got into solar, you know It was all about hustling right door knocking getting out there and put yourself out there really learning a new industry You know and that's the one thing I'll say, you know as of right now Solar the solar industry is gonna create more millionaires than any other industry is the fastest vehicle to create millionaires I believe and there's a reason for that, you know, it's because it's energy and we use energy every freaking day You know, so with that, you know, you're talking about the story with my wife, you know And really it's an interesting story because when I got started, right? I had quit a job that I was making about $60,000 a year, you know and at the time right out of college I was like, well, this is amazing and I came home and I said hey, you know I think I want to go knock doors and I want to do it for solar, you know because I had a buddy of mine that was recruiting me and My wife was like, are you crazy?  And I got into it, right? I said no, I'm doing this. I'm doing this, right? So when I got into it, it took me about two to three months to get my first deal and guess what happens to that first deal It canceled You know and that's the part when I came back home and Yes, a hundred percent and she said, you know what you're gonna have to get out there and figure it out Like you're not gonna come back home without a deal and I started doing that, you know Basically every day wake up in the morning do my thing and then get out there and hustle and hustle every day You know until the point that I got it, right and and really that's the one thing I'll say, you know a lot of people they associate themselves with Basically the wrong company maybe right or the wrong organization and that's when they don't really get To where they should be going or where they need to be, right? Just because of association Yeah, and I want to say something, you know a lot of a lot of people when they hear solar when you say door knocking They automatically check out They because they're like, oh, yeah, I'm not gonna do that. Can I ask you a question? Just do me a favor. Just look at it.  Do you have enough money in the cash in the bank to live for the next two years of something? What happened to you and you had no more money coming in? Like like people say I don't want to do that But then people hate the life they have and I think a lot of people are just afraid I mean can we talk about that for a minute like like I've seen a lot of people get their teeth kicked in for a Couple months and then get it. Okay, and then I've seen people walk right out and do really well and get it right out The gate when you hire somebody and you're like man, dude It's like beginners like my first day I made $1,700 on the job in sales and I got a sell really quick We all have a different story of starting and that was luck. It wasn't skill I learned at the next week that when I didn't get a sale that that was luck But my point is is that we all start different but a lot of people don't don't change in and they're afraid Right so like truly I mean is With you guys and the way that you train the way that you teach people the process that you guys have they're amazing You guys get people up to speed quick making money, right? Andy you can be a single mom or a single parent in the industry so eight years ago I got recruited out of healthcare and I knew nothing about solar no experience. I just know how to sell. I don't recruit I know how to sell is what I do people partners relationships. I can sell candy bars in the door You can sell anything in the door, right? If you know how to sell you can do solar. I You believed in yourself. I believed in myself, but I looked at my superiors, too And I watched and I observed and I just Literally watched them every day day in day out. What were they doing? I started doing it I started replicating it I started mirroring it and that's how I grew myself in the solar industry My house paid off. I have two cars my kids are in private schools And I'm a single mom and I do it all by myself and to me That's like what I have the example. I've been able to set for my kids is Literally example that anyone can do so I watch these kids these days and I my son is 14 I'm like, this is what you're doing. You're gonna be knocking doors when you're 15 You're going to learn this it's going to be your future Can somebody be 40 and join this and somebody be 18 and join this doesn't matter your age Okay, so let's just get that out of the way. Does it matter your age? Okay, then what does matter in order to have with your company if you were to say right now Like and obviously like I want I want you guys to understand this.  They do the installs when they do the sales They don't sublet it out to someone else not another vendor. They handle it themselves You're your people that make the most money the people that have the greatest lives the people that get up to speed The quickest what what qualities do you guys look for somebody's watching this and they're like dude I want to join your life. I want to become a millionaire Let's just say right and they're like you don't need a degree, right? I mean, you don't need any that you don't need a license, right? I mean, what do you need like like what what do you guys but what do you guys look for in human and humans?   How you take care of yourself?  You got to want to be alive and not be asleep in bed You got to be able to focus. Yeah, and they want a thing.  Oh, yeah WP carry ASU anything like that. We don't care about that side We care about you as a human and that you want to get something better or more out of life Yeah, you want to level up Yeah, it seems like you guys are attracted to people that just want to keep getting better Right like at being human like human excellence Becoming a better person. Yeah So somebody's watching this and they are like dude. Well number one I do want to become a better person because obviously I'm watching a self-development channel right now You know, that's one and the number two I would like a level 10 earning opportunity I want to make more money if you live inside of the United States, right? If you live inside of the United States Okay, do you have to have an age you'll be 18 you got to graduate okay?  If you want to have a good life then right now you guys you there's a there's a link below It says anti-power you guys can click the link below and literally you'll answer a couple questions Which are questions that are important to them and you upload a 60-second video and be pretty simple My name is Andy Elliott. I live in North Carolina I'm open to relocating. You know where you at? We live in Scottsdale. We live in Arizona It's a beautiful state palm trees mountains warm weather, you know, everybody needs in your energy. It's a best place for solar You're like look, I want a good organization. I want good leadership You know if if you were to give me an opportunity. I'm looking for my way out. I want to make a lot of money I want to take care of my family whether you don't have a family yet. You're wanting to build generational, you know Wealth right you're wanting to change your bloodline. There's a lot of people that won't change your bloodline right now They're like dude, there's nobody in my family. That's wealthy. I'm not good at this But what are you good at? Can you be nice to people? Could you learn if it could change your whole life? Yes, I could okay cool you qualify You guys need to make sure you fill out that information all they're looking for is your heart That's all they want. They won't work ethic You don't like lazy people but but you could be lazy and make a decision to start working hard And you could join a company be a hard worker That's how fast you change like that like I was once lazy And I was like I don't want to be lazy no more and then I found a company that found value in a hard worker I became a hard worker and I got paid like everybody has the decisions to change everything But you guys fill out that information when you click that link below send over that quick video They'll get a hold of you within 24 hours. Okay, and go ahead It's all about being part of a community, you know So if you plug into our system, you're definitely gonna become a hard worker, you know Obviously you have to have the will yeah, but at the end of the day It's like you have to be a part of a good community and that's what we can provide You know, it's like a lot of hard work a lot of dedication and then obviously, you know a good training platform Which I think that that's the one thing that you're definitely not gonna find everywhere You know like you said there's a million a million back companies some good companies But the fact the thing is like how long is it gonna take you to find those good companies? That's it.  You have great leadership So so tell us about that real quick when I said that you're an installer and you have a sales side, right? Can you explain what the difference is between what most solar companies have and then why you guys have an unfair advantage on most? Yeah, so the majority of you know, solar companies are basically sales works Which again, they're just sales only they don't they don't they don't fulfill the solar side They just sell the order and then hand it off and then have another company come in is that right just for anybody watching Okay, and then I'll talk about what you guys do.  I mean you come from the car industry. Yeah, it's like you want to make sure that whatever you're saying It's gonna happen. Right. Yeah, because I mean, we're here in all honesty to make an impact into people's lives Yeah, that's right. Really. We're not we're not here for money in all honesty, you know, really we believe in solar We're solar people, you know, and we know we know that this is just gonna continue to grow It's gonna continue to skyrocket There's a lot of really cool technologies that we have in place like an amazing partnership with Tesla energy And with that, you know, it's like we know that anybody coming through the door is gonna just benefit from that opportunity Yeah, and I want to say something. So when I was in the automotive industry, we were in Oklahoma, right? So we sold a lot of trucks and everybody in the Midwest is a redneck, right?  Like we lifted everything and so in the beginning That's why I give you guys some analogies. We used to sell these trucks and Then we would have a vendor Lift them will tire a line They would do all the work, right and it just seemed like they would always come back and what I told people they were getting They just weren't getting because we weren't doing the work. We would have send it to someone else, right? And then one day I was like screw this. I'm like, we're gonna hire our own will guys We're gonna hire our own tire guys.  That we were gonna do to the truck to lift it wills tires all this stuff All the aftermarket mods even though it's not the same it was kind of like when we moved it in-house We never had an unsatisfied customer again and literally like everything got smooth So I see in the solar industry right now a lot of sales orgs and installers since they're two complete different They hate each other Like like one says well the sales guys They they say this and you can't get that and then and then the sales guy go the installers They don't know what they're doing You know they're screwing it up and then the customers are in the middle and they're the ones that I'm getting screwed Because these two are yeah, so so but you guys have it all in-house in one place Which means customers are happy as hell and number two you get paid very fast because the work gets done quicker Because it's all in-house and you get the proper training. That's one thing I'll say That's one thing that we We have control over is how they're getting trained how they're selling the deal knowing the customer at the end is getting what they actually were Promised and I would say that's the biggest difference between us and just a regular You know sales team that might just say whatever you can say to get the the sale and the installer has a deal with it for the next 25 years It's their customer and the thing is is we want to be their customer for the next 25 years We want to know what they're getting on the door is actually what they're receiving at the end point So our passion is to make sure that these guys know and women know how to sell the right way, right and And trust that they're actually going to get what they were promised. Yeah, I think that's what Jonathan and I call installation the dark side Convince me to come back to the installation site because I've been the few different sellers I've worked with so many installation companies. I'm not gonna name any names nationwide what I call it the dark side Difficult thing to get right and most installation companies cannot get it right. They want to get right They think they have it right But when you're installing post 30 to 45 days, you just ain't getting it right, you know customers Don't want to have PTO at 90 days, you know, they want their system. It's an investment You know, it's it's more than most their vehicles cost. Yeah, it's a life decision for them And if you don't get it right, you're messing with their investment And for me, it's it's you got to get it right and it's the reason why I came on board here Yeah, so he has some systems in places that allow you to not make installations a nightmare because it's seamless Right. It's just it's nice and simple. It's nice and easy simple Yeah, it's all it's all about experience to you know, like between our leadership at Inti You know, we have over 30 years of experience of just solar only, you know, just working in solar But one of the things that you were mentioning, you know, it's like you have those sales words, right? And we still have we have those two, you know, and with that they love us Why because they're not waiting that long. They're getting paid fast, you know, and also we provide that training We're not after like we get phone calls every day says hey, you know, I see your video Hey, can we partner with you? And the first the next question is like, what about pricing, right?  It's because the the the interests are not aligned You know what I mean? So we want to make sure that they're aligned with us We're aligned with them and then we can grow partnerships So we have amazing partners that their sales works. They love us They've gone through like four or five, you know a few of them They're going through like four or five installers and they finally found us But again, they have to have the right mentality Yeah, so there's two things and if you're watching this right now I'm gonna say this quickly if you're looking for a level 10 earning opportunity So let's say from 1 to 10, right like Walmart was 1 and then 10 was like become a millionaire plus Right, if you're looking for a level 10, you found one and if you're not in a level 10 right now Well, you just found your way out like right now and you qualify and all you have to do is go down to that link Click on it below Literally enter a couple of fill out a couple of the questions answer it very simply send over a 60-second video Stacey will reach out to you. Okay, and she will say what's up and then she'll talk to you or somebody from your team Well, super important though This is your way out I see a lot of people and I we said this earlier and I think that he was gonna say it But I'll say it is that if you're drowning and a lifeboat went by You would be stupid not to swim to the lifeboat and I see people that say I got this This is gonna be a good year. Well, I'm gonna I'm gonna give you a news flash if the play you ran in 2023 didn't work The play isn't gonna work in 2024. It's time to run a new play Some of you right now.  I'm not telling anyone to quit Okay, sometimes it is good to stop something and start something else Hey guys, what's going on? It's Andy a lot of you leave comments telling me that you need help Do me a favor. I'm gonna take the best way to get a hold of me. Shoot me a text message right now 918 210 254 918 210 254 I'll help you with whatever you need.  Let's get back to the video Quitting would be to stop working quitting would be to give up on your dreams But sometimes your your ignorance doesn't let you stop and then restart You know I'm saying like that's the key like we never quit But sometimes it's good to stop something and start something else if you're in a relationship That's a bad one.  Maybe it's time to stop being there and go somewhere else So if you guys fill out that information below, it's very simple. I mean it's 15 questions And by the way, they're not tricky. It's just how do you think are you looking for something long-term? You know, are you coachable? It's very simple stuff and then you sit in a 60-second video Which means we got to put a name with the face then we'll reach out and we'll kick some ass Let's flip to the other side because we have a lot of solar companies that That that are always constantly learning training cells closing stuff and they want an edge They want to win so you're saying if somebody right now has a sales org and They're currently using an installer and they're wanting a better partnership, right? How do they reach out to you would they fill out that information below and then maybe in the what? Skills so I have to bring to the table or what am I good at would they say we have a sales org I want to reach out and talk about installations Let's talk about that for a minute. Is that cool? Can we talk about the install side? So on the install side, you know There's a lot of pain points, right? The main thing is like you were talking about not controlling it, right? And it's like I don't know what's going on with this homeowner and if you care because that's who we want to partner with It's people that care Then at that point it's just becomes a nightmare. So with that is communication, right? We have a team that's gonna be communicating with you specifically to know what's going on with your deals What's happening? You know just reviewing what's going on with every single case that you put through, you know And for us really we treat it because we both come from the sales aspect, right from the sales side So we know that this one two jobs a week Could mean a lot of money for this to this rep or this org, right? So we treat every kilowatt.  I'm like a kilowatt. It's a kilowatt, you know In the sense that I know that that's gonna impact that person So with that though that the installation side, you know It's pretty tricky and you want to align yourself with a good company that not only is gonna have Your best interest in mind as well because obviously providing that training that you're talking about the communication But also looking after you're looking for you, you know In that sense, it's like what are the things that are happening in the industry? For example, you know, we're talking about Tesla and that partnership, you know coming out with batteries All these new technologies that are coming out. It's like new financing, you know all those things we do We see you know what I mean? We say hey, we foresee that coming and we're already, you know training your guys to be able to be on that Staying in the know is the biggest thing the biggest trends like where we're headed where we're going Like you were saying leases leases are super heavy right now in Arizona So what can we do to provide that value to the partners out there? You know a lot of times installers will just leave Sales people hanging and not really provide them the value that they need and without sales We can't install and that's and that's the thing is you got to provide your value to them And that's something that that Jonathan has implemented the foundation And that I saw value in him and he saw value in me is is what I want to provide to the partners and the sales works Yeah, and so a couple questions so primarily right you guys are in Arizona. Is that right? Yes right now and Let's talk. Let's talk about that. Why is air? I mean by the way, I want to tell you guys this is super important. I Changed my life when I moved to Arizona. I lived in Oklahoma. I moved to Arizona. I never understood the power of a move Right like Nothing changes until you change so for anybody watching this People are moving all across the country to find opportunities in different places They move if what you can't if what you want isn't in front of you you you find it You don't just go. Oh, man. I'm just I'm gonna settle over here No, you find it and when I moved Arizona like it's so beautiful You know, I just got back from Cabo flew in this morning and I land and it's nice And then my other two three buddies that were with me are moving on to Montana and Salt Lake City And they're going back to negative 40 and 20 degrees and they're like and they're like dude 80 degrees And I'm like it's it's it's winter and I'm like well the cool thing about what we have is that we have warm weather all year So it's almost like a vacation every door every morning. I wake up. I walk outside and I see palm trees Every morning. I walk outside. I see mountains all the time. I'm just like dude like this is like paradise It's so much opportunity gosh and and then I want to go to the to the income part It's such a great place beautiful people beautiful stuff beautiful state our laws our regulations are so awesome here I watch states that are just heavily regulated and we have it so easy and it's such an entrepreneur state Right like there's self-development and growth everywhere around it, but there's so much opportunity So that allowed me to build a new identity So if somebody's watching this and they're like I want to become a new person like my move to Arizona Like allowed me to become somebody that I'd never been because I went to a new place This guy the other day said I've been trying to change Andy and it's just so hard And I said if I moved you across the country to a new place where nobody knew who you were Where nobody knew anything about you it wouldn't be scary It would be the greatest thing that ever happened to you because it'd give you an opportunity to change and Nobody would be judging you because they don't know who you are And people just don't think that way you want to change the hardest thing to change it is in front of people That don't know who you are so you guys you can literally go down fill out the information Send over a 60-second video have a conversation with them Two things that will happen are amazing number one you get the opportunity of a lifetime to have unlimited earning potential Which is just insane and be around great leadership in a great organization But number two get a chance to really alter your identity and become who you've always wanted to become Whether you're by yourself or you've got a girlfriend or boyfriend or family like you just shift and move And I'm seeing more people shift and move here right now and create wealth at speeds that were Impossible wherever they stayed and they're able to do it here and that's what you want to see people do right You grow the most I think when you are uncomfortable in that change.    He goes what do you mean? I said look I'm gonna figure it out because no matter what I'm gonna figure it out It's the only option I have is figure it out. Yeah, you know, and so he just looks at me smile He goes okay, let me know when you figure it out. You know, but it's like that's a mentality We have to have day in and day out is wake up and figure it out because that's your mentality You're just not gonna grow well, and I love that that you didn't say why don't know you're like dude We'll figure it out and at that point that means that you're saying hey I'll handle it and I'll get it done and I think a lot of people the reason why listen right now the universe will reward you With as much money as you want It will give you as much wealth as you want. It'll give you the lifestyle you want it'll give you the results you want But you must make bold moves. I want everybody if somebody's even wrote down notes Make bold moves go back and look at your last five moves. Were they bold? You know I'm saying were they and I think that that's big I think that when when me and my wife I remember when I was starting my company There was this influencer this business owner I wanted to train with I wanted to learn from and I finally got with him on the phone And he goes, you know, I mean I knew I had about two minutes. He goes all right What do you want to know it was just very simple and I said I want to do this I want to do this I want to do this and he goes well if you're at why and you want to get to Z This is how you need to do it and I said what will it cost and he said 250 grand and I said, okay, and he goes listen. There's two types of people Appreciate you telling me how to do it right and I'll get back with you when I'm ready And then that is everything I want to know and if you can really do that What's the wiring account and what's a routing number and you'll wire the money over so I want to know who he goes I want to know who you are and at that point. I didn't even talk to my wife yet I said we're going to wire the money And the reason why is because I knew that I wasn't making false promises to my family anymore And I was going to get us to a place that we hadn't been So I needed to start making bold moves I knew if I could just get the information if I could be around the right people If I could be around someone that was able to do it I could just learn from them that I knew that they weren't better than me They just knew more than me or they were more educated or they were more refined by me They handle adversity different than me like they can make and by the way clearly they made decisions faster than me And he basically Said like there's those that make decisions and those that can't make them and how I respect a leader is based on the decisions that they make I spent that money went out flew out trained with them spent 250 grand before I left I spent another 75 grand Because he gave me another opportunity to train more with them and dude I'm telling you like that was the best money ever spent that next year. We made an additional nine million dollars I want to tell you something you have no idea And I had to get on a plane how to fly down there How to go get how to go get uncomfortable how to leave I had a lot of people say what if it don't work I can't believe you did that All those people now are asking how did you do it?  We're reading a book right now our leadership team It's called extreme ownership And I hire people that want to take ownership if you can't take ownership of your life Or of initiative when you walk in the office like you're you're not valuable to me Like I know that sounds crazy harsh rude me It's a truth But you know what if you can't take ownership of something In your life, then you're just not going to bring the value But you said something to me and I'm going to put this out there for those that want to apply If you have to go home and talk to your wife Do not apply Because as a man for me or a female you have to go home and take ownership of your family of your life Of your of every aspect of it, you know, and you said I didn't even talk to my wife I just I took ownership of the situation and that's the type of leader that we are looking for is someone that just wants to Make a decision Take that ownership be that leader To their family to themselves to an organization and make a difference You know, yeah, I want to say this my wife for a long time I would go ask her hey, babe. Do you think that I just do this and she goes well I know you and when you really want to do something you just do it anyways So the fact that you're asking me makes me think that you're second-guessing yourself And I'm like no, babe. I'm not but I just wanted you to back me. She goes. I've always backed you. Yes I've never not backed you. Okay. And as a female in the industry I want leaders that aren't going to second-guess themselves and they're going to go. You know what? I took care of it already. I'm going to make this effort and I'm going to apply And you know, I want to come work for you guys and and that's a type of leader I'm looking for no job than is to yeah, and your family once The lifestyle that you always told them that they would get one day A lot of them are still waiting around for I was talking to this guy the other day and like He started training with me back in 2019, right? And he trained one time and then he disappeared And then the the guy popped back up and he goes man, dude.  Like I don't just feel it. I don't just see it But I can truly see it And so when I say level 10 earning opportunity a lot of people feel like they're getting somewhere But they're not getting in where could you imagine running on a treadmill and for 30 minutes? And then when you got done it said you ran zero miles Like I'd be pissed. I'd be like, dude, I know I've been running for 30 minutes I'm gonna freaking punch this machine or go into the gym for one year And then literally not seeing any results Gained no more muscle gained no more Never lost any body fat didn't look any different didn't get the mindset gains Nothing I'd quit Well, so many people they're giving up eight to 10 hours a day They're going into an office or a workplace five days a week Minimum and literally they have nothing to show for it at the end of the year They didn't become a better person what I love about you guys you go.

Hi, I'm coach Corey Wayne and this is my video coaching newsletter and the topic of today's newsletter is going to be the red pill and Manosphere and who better to discuss this topic than mr. L Presidente Anthony dream Johnson Welcome man. Good to be here man. Yeah, he's coming over. Yeah, appreciate it So what for the people that don't know what is you know? What's interesting is I think we were talking earlier before we started rolling is I and I started seeing I don't know eight six eight nine years ago and my youtube channel and my people But you know I'm commenting on my blog about the red pill stuff about the manosphere And so for those that that don't know why don't you give us a little? Yeah, what is the manosphere? What's the red pill sure? So we were talking about earlier and I mentioned The manosphere in my view of it my understanding of it as president now, right? It has four main sub-communities so it's not just some it's not just a cohesive movement where everyone gets along and they're all You know I joke that my followers on 21 studios the subscribers are Manisferians, you know the magical land of Manisferia Yeah my fellow Manisferians But more literally and I've talked about this with reporters and stuff that you know the New York Times and all that that Asked me the manisters for distinct sub-communities and then beyond that it has kind of what I call manister light And that's guys like Jordan Peterson to defend Malin you and yourself that make even if you don't identify as being part of the Manosphere you're a you know your man your content creator your leader and you're creating positive content and media for men That's what you do constantly Instagram YouTube your newsletter your website and women and women about 10% of my audience is Yeah, we have about 5% don't forget the ladies ours should be increasing soon, right? Absolutely But you're you're basically a you know You're a controversial content creator and you have a huge following and you want to help men and women too And you do that through education or educational media newsletters videos, you know all that stuff So in that in Jordan Peterson does that too even though he's not you know fishing part of the Manisferia So they found Malin as well He creates content for it from time to time and then but then he focuses elsewhere on politics and philosophy Philosophy even current events like coronavirus stuff like that But within the larger Manisferia more the formal Manisferia will call it You have four communities some of those are pretty well known Obviously the pickup artist community the seduction communities. It was called you have kind of the remnants of that That's kind of falling apart over the years But there's still like a you know Pua thing a seduction thing for example on reddit There's a seduction community that's been around for a long time and they have 300 400,000 followers Obviously back in the day you had in the 2000s the pickup artist show you had you know the game and all that The seduction community has been around since the 90s and that to me is the distinct part of the Manisferia You also have the men's rights movement men's right men's rights activists They're the more politically legally active part of activist part of the Manisferia You don't see that in the pickup artists. You don't see that even the migtail guys You don't see that even in the red pill. Those are the guys who focus on that whether you like them or not That's what they do You also see the red pill community Which is probably the smallest part of the Manisferia before they got quarantined on reddit about a year and a half ago now They had about 300,000 subscribers on their network And you see different leaders in that different you know different content creators But the red pill is its own distinct Corner distinct community within the larger Manisferia. They usually don't even get recognized But they are and a lot of people say and I agree with them that they basically hived off from the pickup artists community in about 2011 2012 Before that the pickup artists community was kind of one thing and then Supposedly what happened was the pickup artists community was getting a lot more feminized as feminism was kind of increasing as an even more culturally dominant force You saw a lot more pickup artists stuff get a lot more Apologetic about masculinity and things like that And so there was a kind of a wing of the Manisferia the pickup artists community that was not okay with that So eventually they hived off and created their own community and that eventually grew to have 300,000 followers At this point nobody knows how big it is because it shows zero on reddit because they mixed that when they quarantine a community The final fourth community of the Manisferia that occupies it is migtail You know a lot of people that we're talking about you know They get blasted by the migtail people the minute they make any critical comment there they are kind of There's a migtail Community on reddit that's pretty big. Yeah, they're my experience like we're talking earlier They're not the most positive people It's gonna work out for you buddy. Yep, not surprised at all We I've gotten some of the same flak from them usually not lately, but sometimes I'm sure that comment alone We'll get a bunch of people kitchen But that's okay. They're another community though They have a couple hundred thousand on reddit and then on YouTube different channels like Sandman stuff like that and They're just a they're another component of the Manisferia They're a distinct group separate from the right pill guys separate from the men's rights Separate from the pick-up artist. They don't even like the hate pick-up artists for example out of the time and They'll make fun of anybody, you know for any reason that they want they'll call, you know Men's rights or manjinas, you know, they call them pick-up artists manjinas, you know all this stuff We don't need to get into I think exact detail of each one of these communities But those are the four you have the pick-up artists. You have the men's rights You have the migtail, you have the right pill guys And each one is a couple hundred thousand Distinct members in it and there's some crossing, you know crossover between them, but each one is pretty distinct The migtail are probably that you know one of the most distinct because they don't get along with anybody I told that to the New York Times because they ask me if migtail is the same thing as in so and I was like no hell No, that's its own distinct thing that is not part of the Manisferia. They hate everybody Obviously, but the migtail guys just tend to be more combative and they don't get along with other other communities But it is what it is. It's part of being a man sometimes. There's you know kind of combat and conflict So on the red pill that you asked about the red pill as well. So it's not just a community The red pill obviously comes from the Matrix, you know in the late 90s movie Red pill blue pill and the red pill like that's why I think they called it that from as hyping off from the pick-up artists community the pick-up artists community was never creating in my opinion a framework or a theory that underlined Underlined Why women act the way they do why men act the way they do and all that The red pill was like a response to the increasing feminization you saw Of the pick-up artists community and it's a focus on truth. It's a focus on building a theory that actually in Today's culture where men are not even supposed to know this, right?  Yeah, especially in leaving, California Yeah, lifetime alimony in California as Defan Malini said not not overly strong and independent when they get lifetime alimony And you know as you leave I'm not a historian on this stuff, but even alimony for example Yeah, it's just ridiculous the origin of it You know was fitting to a time when that made sense and now it's like you're strong independent woman You can go get a job on your own. You don't need alimony. What do you need that for? I think it should be abolished speaking of it Yeah, we have the red pill community with regards to the man a sphere with regards to its hiding off from the Pickup artist community It's a much more explicit focus on building a theory and a framework for understanding women and a culture that deliberately and explicitly Does not want men to understand the truth They want them to be this kind of dumb buffoon betas that it that they even show you on TV, right? Homer Simpson to modern family and the red pill is a pushback against that Teach men the truth even when it's cold and uncomfortable and it's forbidden from you to even know You know having a let me even on your channel the red pillars by the way they call you purple pill Yeah, they call me um or he's purple pill. He's blue pill.   You're focused on the truth.   I promise you yeah That's a test applied to your life and see what happens.   It's just an insult What is the purple pill supposed to represent? And in terms of the matrix movie where the analogy came from it would be like Cypher Someone who you know woke up to woke up from the blue pill But then he wanted to kind of go back to that comfort cocoon kind of thing And so he made a deal with the you know the the machine agent Smith was it agent Smith? Yeah So purple pill is like the mixture of the two It does have real meaning, but they're misapplying it to content creators that they don't agree with like you It's a bunch of nonsense a real purple pill guy would be probably like me before finding You know the right pill community and stuff in 2016 So for example, I understood from the Pickup Artist community my experience there building the convention that I do and things like that I understood how to pick up women I knew and so this is but I didn't I was still so young I didn't really get the bigger picture and that's the point. I Understood approaching women. I understood I'd pick them up how to have a same at lay and all that stuff But I didn't really understand women. I understood pickup. I understood some mechanics that could get me laid, which is I'm the young man That's pretty fun. That's what that's part of what I wanted to do But I did not understand women more fundamentally. I didn't understand women in the context of relationship I didn't understand even parts of myself as a man So in those ways, it was still kind of blue pill So you saw me have these kind of red pill ideas like I can go to a bar I can approach a woman I can get better at doing that over time and then I can bring a hot girl home the same night I've sex with her which most guys you know the average lifetime partner account for a man in America is like seven or like that's like the median I think according to CDC So the idea that you can go out to a bar and deliberately pick up a girl and bring her home and have sex to most guys This is like, you know movie stuff. This doesn't happen But the Pickup Artist teach you that this is possible that you can learn these things and you comply them to your life And you can go out and learn how to do that So that is kind of a red pill understanding of women that you can do that But then not having the backbone and the foundation to be masculine to be a man and to truly understand women at a broader and deeper level That's purple pill and that's dangerous because you can get sucked into a toxic relationship like that Which happened to me which Bob talked about pretty soon. Yeah, and it's very common for that to happen, too You got to pre-qualify your prospects. I like this borrowing a term from the mortgage business. Yep Because you know just cuz she's hot and got a great body doesn't mean she's a good teammate But the Pickup Artist community if you notice, I don't know how familiar you are with it But in the 2000s when I grew up in the Pickup Artist community. I found it 2005. I was very young I was 17 They didn't talk about that they talked very little about relationships and certainly nothing that was focused on fundamentals It was very like logistics and approaching and outer game as they call it focused It was only later on in about 2009 2010 that they even took seriously the concept of inner game Of understanding self-confidence and your self-worth and self-esteem and things like that Things that I think you're much more in tune with than they were in the 2000s Which again was much more topical and yeah, I coach all kinds I mean I I coach a lot guys that are married very religious no sex till marriage I coach guys that had been married for 30 years and having happened getting laid in the last 10 years I coach a lot of lesbians.    Which is always the first thing I asked in my phone sessions with people's like when we hang up today We want to get out of the phone session and then I you know I work back from that because I want them to achieve it because people pay me a a lot of money to To talk to me and I want to make sure that you know they achieve their outcome. Otherwise I failed Yeah, you're a coach not a dictator It's similar to the 20s you call and they think that we're you know I was talking about earlier that we want to control women and dictate to them.  Let's talk like how can I help you? How can our speakers help you more importantly? And yeah, it's it's a very mutual, you know voluntary thing. That's good cool, so back to the The manosphere what yeah So as has the manosphere has it been kind of I mean where what is the state of it the stat state of the union state It's a manosphere. It's a state of the manosphere for the manospherians. Yeah, I would say recently It's grown a lot. I think the make woman great again Basically make women great again has been such a huge Cultural thing it's reached almost a hundred million people that it's actually growing the manosphere It's growing awareness of it, which that's your seminar that's coming up women You have it's a kind of like a couple's weekend, right? You're gonna have the Patriarch Edition and then the one for the women so couples can go Together this fan the men can attend the Patriarch Edition and women can attend the that's right make women great again And the future we might do a man's planning event in the future or it's a man's planning the mansplaining event of the century Yeah, it's because it's all male speakers 100% for the first year and the future we might change it But for now it's the mansplaining event of the century all male speakers and all female attendees Men are not allowed to attend 22 con women are not allowed to attend 21 convention But all men are speaking at both conferences. So this is really upset the feminists, you know for obvious reasons In the future there you help men and women. I know right? Yeah. I know how you big it.  They've screamed at me the internet The company voicemail that we have the vote the phone's been blowing up with these women screaming at me and stuff Same on me to die. Don't me. I mean all kinds of really nasty stuff. They wish I was never born I should have been aborted. I'm just just sick stuff, man They're trying to find the venue to obviously to cancel it even they try to trick us through email they try to like get the venue without buying a ticket and It's so obvious what they do. It's like, I know you just want to get the venues You can call them and harass management tell them to cancel us a bunch of nonsense people with too much time in their hands That's right But the man's fear I think is a very so let me say this about the man's fear in spite of some of the negativity You see doing is natural to any movement the man's fear. I think is Primarily and fundamentally very positive for men and women and for women. That's not being for the first time That's really been that's being expressed and that's being seen and that's their mansplaining Which is a term that I think feminists know it's funny if it's a you know, people laugh at it right away, but It's funny because they use it as a derogatory term towards men And then you just kind of taking it like a keto and just redirected the momentum That's right. That's right into something positive Just like Trump would do with these people that attack them or like it would happen in the mug movement They called the Hillary Clinton called Trump supporters deplorables. They're gonna say yeah, fuck animal deplorable So it's it's a positive way to deal with You know kind of negative concept like that mansplaining in particular I think has been used to silence and censor and neuter Masculine voices in America from fathers to brothers to men to husbands and all that stuff And that's one of the reasons it was so important to grab as a concept because I knew they'd call it's a mansplaining event anyway So I was like, alright, let me just take this concept mansplaining, which is what we're doing anyway in their terms, right? We're talking to women about how to be women And we'll embrace it and own it and that's by saying it's a mansplaining event of the century The biggest one the first one and all that stuff ever Anyway, the Manisphere is a very pot So feminism I view as a movement for women obviously right and an ideology that thinks very toxic But feminism is very negative for women completely especially at this point And so there's no for example in feminism whether it's on Reddit in these huge communities or websites and all these different organizations They have none of it is self-improvement focused like none of it At best maybe some fitness stuff they go over like, you know lose weight and all this stuff But really it's a very negative movement. That's not positive and the Manisphere is very different from that from day one The Manisphere has been a lot more positive. It's been about even the pickup artists You know people our conference for example when I started it in 2006 2007 They said it was like a pickup artist conference and I as the founder I never viewed it as that ever Even at the beginning when it was almost all pickup artists speaking and like one fitness guy First of all we had a fitness component from the beginning But second of all even with the pickup artists coaches and all that stuff and eventually we you know evolved beyond that too For me it was like your stuff. It was about understanding you say understanding relationships. That's your website But for me the conference is life is relationships.  Yeah But even from our perspective my perspective as the founder of the conference It was about understanding women and it was about understanding yourself as a young man Because it was for young men at the beginning the under-21 convention So it was always about understanding male-female relationships understanding women understanding yourself as a man Understanding how women behaves of femininity things like this The pickup artists component that was like kind of as the framework that it existed in like a topical Shell to it, but at its core it was always fundamentals based understanding things understanding philosophy understanding women understanding yourself And that's why I think it's also grown so much over the years for I'm doing it for 13 Almost 14 years now, and it's evolved to have you know medical doctors Navy SEALs a lot of coaches like yourself You know that we have similar and then even you know philosophers like Stefan Molyneux All that's welcome at the conference because it's always been understanding focused Not like get laid, which you know that's fun, but it's a much deeper bigger vision than that State of the Manisphere that I could get back into that but I think it's yeah, so let me say that I think it's a very positive movement for men And now women too for the first time men for the first time in modern American history I think men are standing up and speaking in public to women and we're using make women great again to do that in a whole conference That's a very positive thing, but even for the men. It's primarily there's a little bit of negativity You know guys give burns in a relationship. They look for help on the internet They end up in a community and whatever you know it's something. It's interesting though along those lines is that when I first wrote my book It's 95% of the self-help books on dating and relationships are bought by women only about 5% Wow by men So, you know if you got a bunch of guys That are experts coaches Yeah, and you know the people you have speaking at they make women great again I mean that's something that you know women are more inclined to want to hear what they got to say because they're more focused on nurturing and relationships and because that's all part of feminine energy, but as far as the Manisphere I mean, it's it's a lot of content. It's not just people in it, you know men It's a lot of speakers like yourself and coaches and things like that. It's very positive For fathers for example, we do a whole father conference now how to be the best father you can be for yourself and your wife and your children and all that And for the men it's very positive. It's how to be the best man you can be That's like a recurring theme throughout all the Manisphere a lot of the coaches say that they have different kind of variations of The phrase for that but really like the one I like to use is from a iron ran object of its perspective Become the ideal man Not by someone else's definition, but by your own definition and that to me means being the best man You can be in this lifetime that you have before you die Whether that's next week or 50 years from now like be the best you can be express yourself in the best way possible and Navigate life and define what that's going to mean for you with your goals and values that you have and you pick along the way Yeah, the Manisphere is very positive and that's also how it's so different from feminism Feminism I've used a very negative movement for women and it's very toxic and destructive The Manisphere is about building men up and building fathers up and becoming the best man that you can be In each community has kind of a different focus Whether it's the red pill guys teaching men what they believe to be true about women and a culture that is very hostile to men And masculinity or whether that's the men's rights community trying to undo Very destructive unfair unjust family law for men and fathers and things like that For example recently, I think in Kentucky. They finally got passed in law now 50-50 custody for men and women fathers and mothers as a default after divorce, you know, child custody and most states you don't have that Women win like 83% of custody balsam like that for primary custody in America Which obviously is not equal and not fair and not good. No and in Florida now, too, they're pushing that finally I think the bill has got introduced recently to make 50-50 custody default Which I think is very American and very positive and very just and so that's what the men's rights guys That's their focus different from the pickup artists and the red pill and stuff like that So I think that answered your question for the state of the Manisphere. I should give a speech on that yet at some point It wouldn't be the first one, but it would be, you know, one of the first So anything else that We should talk about the red pill that people should know Yeah, I mean the red pill is a distinct community in the Manisphere I'm not on good terms with one of the leaders in it. I exiled him from the Manisphere That was my first ex-communicado ex-communicado exactly John Wick style Yeah A lot of people are very critical of it like the make-toe, but I still think it's a pretty positive thing In spite of some of the polarization in it and some of the negativity I think it's still a pretty good thing Men need to be told the truth about men and women. They need to be told the truth about what's going on today And the red pill I think does that. It's a good analogy too. It's used obviously outside of the Manisphere It's used in politics and all kinds of things because it came from a movie that everyone knows Yeah, I think it's a good movement. It's a good thing. I think you're very red pill I mean you're dressed head to toe in red right now. Yeah, I got this nice new hat here and somebody just gave me Also, the final thing let's say is that I don't know how much longer and I've said this in a speech I'll publish pretty soon. I said it in my speech in Poland at the convention 21 convention But I think long-term you're going to see the sub communities the four of them fizzle out in the Manisphere And it's going to kind of coalesce into one larger movement and notice the Manisphere That's part of why I wanted to be the president of it and declared that To for a couple reasons like being a lightning rod for mainstream media to attack I think someone needed to need to do that who was antifragile who would benefit from that as I have You've handled it quite well. You know, I watched the appears Morgan interview and they you know They did a good job of trying to squeeze you're not That was a three in the morning to hand Orlando. I was like so exhausted. I had some coffee when I was still just like It's like all right. That's right. They're five hours ahead over there in London. Yeah But anyway, I think long-term like the 2020 is now this decade I don't think that the pickup artists have already been kind of falling apart over the years Like it's not as organized as it was in 2000s So I think we'll see these communities kind of fizzle out or lose momentum And in general men will identify a more strongly and consistently with the the Manisphere itself We're just kind of an odd term, you know, but it's the best we have people say it sounds like a gay nightclub or something I think it's stupid It is what it is. It's the Manisphere. It's a community for men It's the world's first other first ever movement for men and fathers that are organizing together for the interest of men boys and fathers That's never been seen in the world to my knowledge and it's a positive thing too Like the feminists claim their stuff is for which I think is false and fraud basically the Manisphere. That's real These are men and fathers, you know getting together talking about the issues putting out content helping each other Navigate the world as men and his fathers and that's needed right now a positive movement and a positive force for men And that's not happening any roles in the world And I think it needs to happen and we're at the forefront of making that happen and it's a very good thing Very happy to lead it and be the lightning rod Cool and so how do people get in touch with you to attend your events or your YouTube channel?

Hi, my name is Rosella Ferrari and I'm a reader in Chinese and theater studies in the Department of East Asian Languages and Cultures and I teach modules related to cinema and performance cultures. So in cinema and performance in China, critical and historical approaches, students learn about key issues and events in the often interconnected history of Chinese film and theater since the beginning of the 20th century. So we study the origins of cinema in the so-called opera films based on indigenous Chinese forms and then we look at examples of silent cinema in the so-called Golden Age of Shanghai filmmaking and we also look at the origins of modern drama, Chinese drama in Japan. Then we move on to looking at the politics of socialist filmmaking and theater making on the Mao and during the Cultural Revolution and we explore post-Maoist and post-socialist genres and trends in terms of filmmaking and performance making, for example, avant-garde performance, independent documentary, independent cinema, feature filmmaking, women's cinema, commercial cinema and other trends. The module has a quite strong interdisciplinary focus because we look at the interconnections between film and theater and also between film theater and, for example, literature or the visual arts. We look at issues of adaptation, intermedial adaptation and also intercultural adaptation. With respect to both film and theater, we place them in our transnational context so we look at the transnational connections. For example, we explore the long-standing historic relationship between China and Hollywood and including representations of China and Chinese-ness in classic Hollywood cinema as well as more recent films. And this issue also helps us explore issues of self-exoticism and self-orientalism. And moreover, we explore the connections of male and Chinese performance cultures and cinema with the cinematic and theatrical and performance cultures of other regions in the wider Sinophon area, for example, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore and so forth. There is no language requirement for this module. Everything is in English or has English subtitles. We meet for two hours per week, so we have two contact hours per week, one seminar and one lecture. And in terms of assessment, we have three items, three elements of assessment. One is a quiz, then there is an essay and there is a choice. The third element is a choice between a reaction paper, a short film analysis and a video presentation. Finally, this module cannot be taken in conjunction with its language-based equivalent, Chinese cultures on screen stage, because they share a lecture and there is a content overlap. So students of those modules share a lecture, but they have separate dedicated tutorials. I look forward to seeing you in the course.
