In response to Steve's question about andrew tate, it's very disappointing to hear Maria recommend focusing on the "positive" influences in her mens' lives. the elephant in the room is that so many young men simply do not have those positive influences. that is exactly why they fall under the influence of Tate or Jordan Peterson, Carlson etc. her response was woefully insulated and way too long. Steve you are on the right track asking these questions. thank you.

God, this is a smart interview. Just brilliant.
