What if mind control is real? If you could control the behavior of anybody around you, what kind of life would you have? Can you hypnotically persuade someone to buy a car? When you look at your car, you're going to become overwhelmed with such good feelings. Can you hypnotize someone into sleeping with you? I gave her some suggestions to be sexually aroused.
Can you get someone to join your cult? NLP was used on me to access my subconscious. Mind Games, a new podcast exploring NLP, a.k.a. Neurolinguistic Programming. Is it a self-help miracle, a shady hypnosis scam, or both? Listen to Mind Games on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
This is Dr. Jesse Mills, host of the Mailroom Podcast. Each January, men promise to get stronger, work harder, and fix what's broken. But what if the real work isn't physical at all? I sat down with psychologist Dr. Steve Poulter to unpack shame, anxiety, and the emotional pain men were never taught how to name.
Part of the way through the valley of despair is realizing this has happened, and you have to make a choice whether you're going to stay in it or move forward.

Chapter 2: What was Lexi's experience on her first date with Daniel?
Congratulations. We've always wanted to get you on the show, so I'm glad you're on now. This part feels awkward to me. Daniel, calling you today because, you know, we do the segment called The First Date Follow-Up, where if you go out on a date with somebody and you end up ghosting them, they can email us to ask you why you're ghosting them. And we got an email about you. Oh, no.
Are you ghosting me? Yeah. Any idea who it would be? Um, I'm just going to assume it might be Lexi, my most recent date. It is Lexi, your most recent date. Yeah, we talked to her. She said she really liked you, but can't figure out why you're ghosting her. Do you mind telling us? Yeah, yeah, no problem. Um, I mean, let me just start off like Lexi. Lexi's great.
She was cute, a little bit spastic, which I thought was kind of adorable. She was really funny. She was funny. You know, very, very self-assured, which I liked. And, you know, we had a good time. But there's something she said that just kind of stuck with me. And I really, you know, I kind of ruined it for me. What did she say? It rubbed me the wrong way. Let's just put it that way.
So we were playing pool. You know, and I'm not the best at pool. I'm not the worst, but I had a moment where I completely missed a shot. And, yeah, I think she might have been joking, but what she said is, it's okay, I don't date winners anyway. And I don't know why, but for some reason, that just kind of rubbed me the wrong way, and I couldn't really shake it the rest of the day.
That kind of felt like she called me a loser, which I just missed a shot at pool, but... She kept saying, it's a joke, relax, I'm kidding. But the damage was kind of done. It really kind of felt like weirdly competitive or weirdly kind of a dig. And I don't know.

Chapter 3: What led to Lexi feeling ghosted after the date?
I mean, I've had some bad dating history where people have been kind of not the kindest to me. So I don't know. For some reason, it really rubbed me the wrong way. Okay. Because she called you a loser? I mean, essentially. Well, thanks. Yeah. Um, but that, that, that is kind of, you know, the thing that really made me give, it just gave me pause about whether or not I wanted to see her again.
So I've been marinating on the idea. It is, it doesn't make you feel kind of takes the wind out of your sails or your confidence, if you know what I mean. For sure. But you got to feel good now knowing that she doesn't think you're a loser because she wants to know why you're ghosting her. Well, well, I guess, I guess there's, That is a light at the end of the tunnel.
If you, uh, I, you know, I, I, I don't think I'm a loser. I just think for some reason, I just kept replaying that moment in my head of like, wow, like that was embarrassing enough. And then she kind of kicked me while I was down, you know? Yeah. And you don't want to date somebody that calls you a loser and kicks you while you're down. That's not your type. That was my type most of my life.
I don't think that should be your type. But I'm just making sure that's not your type. No, it's not my type. I wouldn't say. But she is. She's very cute. She's funny. I can't believe she's on the line right now. Yeah. Do you remember now how these work? She is. She's on the phone and wants to talk to you. Oh, I totally forgot which she is on the line, isn't she?
Yeah.
Okay.
Hey.
How's it going? Hey. So, I mean, that's kind of ridiculous. I mean, you ghosted me over that. It was obviously a joke. I mean, I understand how you meant it, but I couldn't help just replaying that moment in my head. And then it kind of kicked my confidence to ask you out again because I didn't know if you really thought that about me. I don't know.
I thought it was like, am I disappointing you already? I don't know. I kind of felt like it kind of just planted a seed in my head. And for some reason, it's kind of blocked me from being able to reach out to you. So it just hit me the wrong way. I don't know how to explain it other than that. It was weird. I'm... Honestly, I roast people that I like. If I didn't like you, I'd be polite.

Chapter 4: What humorous incident occurred during Lexi's date?
In fact, I just really liked you. I hate thinking that you went home believing that I was so serious, but in the end, losers can become winners, so we can try this again, maybe. Are you saying, like, you're being mean to me is supposed to be a green flag? That's what I'm looking forward to is you're going to be putting me down a lot. That's a good question.
Yeah, but I roast everybody that I care for, you big dummy. Well, hey, Daniel, you big dummy, would you like to go out with Lexi again? We'll pay for it. You know, I feel like this... This definitely made me feel kind of like a dummy because I think I got in my head. You were pretty great. I had a great time with you. I'm sorry I got a little overly sensitive about that.
Wait, what?
Do you want to go out with her? Yeah, I mean, I do think I'd like to go on another date with you. I mean, now that I know how you operate, I'm sorry. I'll work on being less sensitive as a loser. What? Are you serious? I think I may have overthought it. Okay. If you care enough to bring this on the radio, I think it's definitely worth another shot. Alexi, congratulations.
You got yourself another date. I can't wait for our next date. Where are we going next? Wait a minute.
