    Chase Hughes is a former U.S. Navy Chief, behavior and influence expert, speaker, and author.

    Are you being brainwashed right now? What if the ideas you think are yours were carefully planted to make you believe you came up with them yourself? Maybe this pod is a psyop, maybe it isn’t, but listen, and maybe you’ll learn how to spot one.

    Expect to learn if we happen to live in the most psychologically manipulated era in history, what the most effective mass behavioural engineering campaign in history was, how mass persuasion and brainwashing work at scale, the behaviors that unconsciously trigger attraction, how to read anyone and spot their insecurities fast and much more…

    The New Way Of The Superior Man - David Deida (1st interview in a decade) - #1101

    23/05/2026 | 1h 24min
    David Deida is a spiritual teacher, researcher, speaker, and author.

    What happens when desire and ambition fade? As we age, the urgency and purpose that once defined us can begin to shift. But when that shift leaves us feeling empty, how do we understand it, and how do we build meaning again when the old sources no longer drive us?

    Expect to learn what a Man of Zero is, if the man of zero is the next stage of the superior man, what happens to ambition and motivation as a man ages, why talking about intimacy is hard for men, what the core of someone's masculine essence is, if masculinity is built by avoiding emptiness, and much more…
