#401 Richard Cooper - What Society Doesn’t Tell You About Relationships

Zuby sits down with returning guest Richard Cooper, author of 'The Unplugged Alpha', entrepreneur, and one of the most influential voices in men’s self-development. Richard explains his philosophy of 'unplugging', and shares how his upbringing, marriage, divorce, and business success have shaped his worldview. The two dive deep into masculinity, modern dating, feminism, family law, religion, and why Western societies are struggling. They also discuss Dubai, freedom, and how men can realistically navigate relationships in today’s cultural climate.
