| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Knowledge for Men podcast where strong men come to rise as grounded leaders, |
| 0:05.1 | lovers, and creators of their world. This is the next level. |
| 0:17.4 | Welcome back to the show, Andrew Fairby, your guide, and today we're going to go into this episode titled Why So Many Women End Up Alone and what it means for you as a man, as this is a problem that is increasing with time. |
