| 0:01.0 | All right, guys, welcome back to The Man Talk Show. |
| 0:04.0 | Today we're going to talk about porn, and we're going to review some of Porn Hub's data. |
| 0:09.2 | Now, this data has been out for a while, but every year, Porn Hub will release their year in review. |
| 0:16.0 | And I took some time to sift through it and come up with some interesting perspectives around this because this data was released in like December. |
| 0:25.0 | You can go and find it, find the insights online. |
| 0:27.8 | But I wanted to talk about this because I recently put up on my Instagram stories, I put up a bunch of the charts and asked people what they thought. |
| 0:35.4 | And it was interesting to see people's responses, you know, like porn is disgusting and, you know, porn's a waste of your life and |
| 0:41.3 | all these types of things. And while I don't necessarily disagree with some of those |
| 0:45.6 | perspectives, I want to make one thing clear before I get into the data, which is, first, I don't |

| 1:13.0 | And it really was a problem. You know, like, I would watch it for sometimes hours at a time. |
| 1:19.4 | I would lose sleep. You know, I wouldn't go to work. Like, it was, it was not great. You know, |
| 1:24.7 | really wasn't great. And I didn't feel great about myself when I was |
| 1:28.3 | watching it and after I was watching it, because as most of you probably know, when you're watching |
| 1:33.6 | porn, it's a very easy dopamine hit, right? And so dopamine is like that, that feel good, |
| 1:40.6 | you know, neurochemical of more. So when you get a dopamine hit of something, you want to do more |
| 1:45.7 | of the thing that you're doing. Right. It's kind of like when you go to the gym, the dopamine |
| 1:49.6 | doesn't hit before you go to the gym, hence the lack of motivation to go to the gym most of the time. |
