Humor Is An Unfair Advantage With Women – MTP508

  1. Humor Is An Unfair Advantage With Women - MTP508 Scot McKay 59:14

Co-Host Jim Wolfe (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/funny) My long-time friend and fellow coach Jim Wolfe returns, this time to talk about how to use the kind of humor that women find attractive. We kick things off by talking about the oxymoron that the harder we try to be funny, the less funny we are. What do you do with that situation? Well, the good news is being funny is a learned skill…but one few men ever master. What kind of humor attracts women, and what kind turns them off? It’s important to get that part right. Jim lives right next to Iran these days, which is decidedly not funny. How does humor relieve Stress and make life in general more bearable? What is the difference between having a sense of humor and being funny? You don’t actually have to be a comedian to make women laugh, all you need is THIS (which most men are allergic to!) What about using humor as a Dad, as well as with women? What’s the same and different? And what’s the same and different about the humor you use when meeting women vs. the humor you use to keep a long-term relationship interesting? What is the difference between tension and pressure, and why is it so important to this conversation? And what is it about being funny that has a meta-level effect on a woman’s attraction level toward you? Why is taking ourselves too seriously an even worse problem than simply not being funny at all? Best of all, you want practical tips and examples, and we bring ’em. At the very least you’ll be slightly funnier having listened to his show!

Scot McKay Dating Strategist

Scot McKay has shared bad jokes with North Korean military officers, sipped coffee at Pablo Escobar’s home (served by his maid), survived a shark attack while surfing, held his breath as the pride of lions walked by his tent, and blitzed through California canyons with his knee on the double-yellow line at 140 mph. Yet somehow, he has also been referred to as the “sane one” on Twitter by Scott Adams, of all people.

But despite once being mobbed by the Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders, being able to back a 30′ travel trailer into its slot on the first try, and that time he beat the World Champion at his own sport (no details provided), he’s still the most objective and down-to-earth dating expert out there.

He’s also the most fluff-free fountainhead of original content in his field, if only because that’s what seventeen years of immersive geekery on the subject does for someone.

Scot’s wife Emily is his “proof of concept”, given that she’s just as sweet as she is smokin’ hot and still gets carded at her age. But you’ll never hear her brag about any of that, only Scot.

His show The Mountain Top has also been named a Top 10 Dating Podcast by DatingAdvice.com, and a long time ago Grader.com weirdly ranked Scot the #1 most influential Facebook user in the world.
