Stay Uncomfortable

Welcome to another episode with the guys. Today the guys continue last week's conversation touching on topics related to men and their tendencies and what women might not know or understand. The guys give us this weeks numbers for the wellness check. We start with Yohan's rating (3:32) followed by Oscar's scores for the week (4:50) and Oscar brings us his questions of the day (5:46) "Based on the Inside Out Movies, what do you think about the concept and which emotion do you resonate with the most.

Following this we get into the first point of discussion (17:43): A man says "I had a situation in which my fiancé's mother told her, men only have two emotions - rage and horny."

Second Point of Discussion (32:50): "Hobbies are not just for fun, they keep us sane."

Lastly. Yohan ends the episode with his own question of the day from one of our viewers:

"Hey guys Should I leave my church? I've been in this church for 7-8 years now serving and as of late i've noticed they have been very incompetent with the matters of the soul and keeping the flock. I've talked to other people about this and have gotten mixed responses. Some say 'You are in charge of your spiritual life' While others say 'if I leave, I'll set a precedence that church hopping is a good thing'. What should I do?"

Give us your thoughts on this episode and how you felt! Don't hold back.

Welcome to Stay Uncomfortable. Today the boys kick off the pod with the staple 'Wellness Score' for Oscar at (3:45) and for Yohan at (7:45). Before the Q&A, we dive into a conversation about Faith and the nature of difficult times being the catalyst for more faith.

Q&A:

1. (24:47) "Hey guys! Thanks to one of your videos I recently gave my life to Jesus. I thought it was the best decision ever, until I started to have issues at home. My wife and I have always been in the Miami night-life scene, in fact, that's where we met. She keeps dragging me back there and I truly don't want to. She's gone to church with me a couple times, but has recently decided she no longer wants to go. Any Advise?"

2. (43:55) "Hey ya'll. I am a believer that is struggling with a severe Porn Addiction. I've heard you two talk about it, but I'm really at my wits-end with this. What can I do to get rid of this?"

3. (1:02:40) "Hey fellas! Recently my wife has not been submissive and has been challenging my authority at home. She questions everything I do and listens to everyone else except me. We both listen to your Podcast so please help."

Welcome to another installment of Stay Uncomfortable. The guys start out today's Episode discussing their weeks and a brief discussion on Probability & Stats and the lottery. Oscar gives us his weekly Wellness check (3:00) and Yohan gives us his wellness check rundown at (3:50).

Oscar brings us the question of the day (4:15)- "What are two things that you are struggling with right now? One in the Spiritual/Christian sense and one in the physical sense?

Yohan also touches on his physical struggle with dieting and his journey with committing to healthy habits (13:30).

Oscar gives us similar insight into his personal spiritual struggle and his difficulty with dedicating time to God and being intentional with a routine to meet and speak with God (19:23). Oscar also touches on his struggles with his 'EGO' as a tenured Christian and how he prays to God regarding this topic before we get into the topic of the day (22:00).

Uncomfortable Truths About the Faith:

1. Religious Activism is not the same as communion with Christ (30:40).

2. There are people who pray & fast more to rebuke the devil, than to know God (42:45).

3. If you have to go to the Wilderness to find God's presence, you probably don't have an established routine to find God in your home (50:45).

4. There are people who pray & read the bible more to minister than to be nurtured (56:50).

5. The people who attend church the most during the week, are the least to manifest transformation (1:06:20).

Welcome to another installment of Stay Uncomfortable. The boys start out with congratulating Oscar for graduating (1:00) and a funny story about the graduation ceremony and a little portion dedicated to the struggles of the job market. As usual we get the weekly wellness score staring with Oscar (5:15) and then Yohan (7:30) and we resume the Part Two of the 'Strong Men' series (8:30) with a recap of Part 1. The guys have a short discussion on the different reasons men are looking to 'heal' and the negative aspects of some of the things going on. At (14:05) we also have a discussion about the lack of empathy from men and the society that has bred these non-empathetic men leading into our first point.

1. Strong Men are Empathetic (18:10) - Jesus is the greatest example of this (18:35) even during suffering. This also leads into conversely how men fail to use their hurt & trauma as an experience to heal from and use to strengthen their community and thus fail to have empathy (20:35) & the lack of empathy from the church and church culture (30:10).

2. Strong Men are non-violent (44:35) - Strong men are non-violent, but should be capable of being aggressive. (48:39) The guys touch on the differences between aggression and violence and how emotional intelligence will help men distinguish from the two.

3. Strong Men ask for help (1:02:00) - Jesus is a reflection of using his friends and community to ask for communal prayer and the contrast of men being willfully ignorant to ask for help and use their community for support an accountability. We also speak on the dangers of isolation compounded with resisting to ask for help.

Supporting Scripture - John 11:33, Matthew 26:52, Matthew 26:36

In today's episode, the boys kick off with a brief recall to Guitar Hero (1:05) and some of the influences of video game soundtracks / in-game music and how that shaped our musical taste. ‘Wellness Check' - starts with Yohan (3:20) and for Oscar (7:15). The conversation transitions into men and their behavior when having too much time on their hands (8:00) and this leads into a great transition for the first questions of the day (13:48) and tying this conversation into the main topic of the day; How men can develop better habits to prepare for life & relationships (22:54) and a lengthy discussion about financial literacy and how insightful this can be if a young man prepares his affairs early on in his life. Lastly, we review the second question of the day (1:02:07) and the boys wrap the episode with this final question.

Question 1: "What did money look like to you between the ages of 17 & 21?"

Question 2: "Hey guys my boyfriend suggested that we start an OnlyFans. He approached me saying since we are having a bit of a financial issue at the moment, we can definitely make money off of OnlyFans. He said it would be me and him, but mostly me. He would manage it and I would participate in it. I don't know how I feel about this; I'm not mad at him, but I'm not sure it's the right thing to do. Any advise?"

In today's episode, the boys kick off with the coined ‘Wellness Check' - starting with Oscar (2:43) and Yohan (6:16) to which he takes a moment to get vulnerable about a conversation he had with his wife and his recent state of mind as it pertains to life and how men seldom share their true feelings and are overwhelmed by the constant give and no return of the daily routine (15:00). From there the boys proceed to get into the Q&A section of the pod.

Question 1 (22:58): "Hey fellas, I overheard by wife telling her friends that she is not that attracted to me. She even admitted that her ex looks better. She doesn't know I heard and now I don't know what to do. "

Question 2 (41:50): "Hello from California. Huge problem - My husband has recently been taking points and VTO (Voluntary Time Off) at work, to come home early to do nothing but game. He has been neglecting us financially and now we're severely struggling. I have a job, but I feel alone; Please help!"

Question 3 (55:30): Hey guys! My husband and I got into a huge fight because he found out I have a work husband. It's nothing romantic or inappropriate; Just two friends that get along very well. My man says he feels disrespected and even feels cheated on. He told me that as long as I work in that office he would not feel comfortable. I feel he's exaggerating and I don't want to quit. Any advice?"

Question 4 (1:09:00): Hey guys I need some advise. My boyfriend isn't emotionally verbal at all, beside I love you. I tell him why I love him and how proud of him I am and how much I appreciate him, but he is not the same. We've had conversations about this and he says he'll do better, but nothing changes. I feel frustrated and I feel I hold all the emotional parts of our relationship."
