Welcome. I'm Connor Beaton, and this is The Man Talk Show, Training for Men and Answers for Women.

And joining me today is Gabe Deem.

He is the founder of Reboot Nation.

Talks a lot about ending or rebooting your life, your brain, your sex life after porn.

He talks a lot about porn's potential negative impacts and effects so others can make informed choices.

So a lot of what we're going to talk about on the show today and a lot of what we get into.

First is Gabe's actual experience.

So he started watching pornography at a very young age and was, in his words, quite addicted

to it and showed a lot of addictive behaviors and impacts.

And then he went on a multi-year journey to understand the neurological, biochemical,

physical impacts that porn has on users' bodies, especially in prolonged usage.

So this is not meant to be a porn-hating episode or porn-advocating episode.

It's actually not about whether you should or should not watch pornography,

even though the title may have implied that.

It is more about offering you the listeners some data,

some information, some studies and research that have been done out there in the world

to make a more informed decision about porn usage.

Gabe uses a lot of his personal examples,

talks about some of the people that he's worked with and some of

the men that have gone through this experience, have gone through some of the process that he

outlines. But a lot of what we talk about are the science and the research and the neuroscience

that has been produced over the years behind
