Assuming what the article says is true (which it may not be), the guy sounds like a scumbag. Forget about the women; the way he treats his friends, the whole “flakey” thing. That's just shitty behavior.
Also stringing along 35+ year old women is pretty cruel. I mean screw AWFL, they should know better themselves, but still. The guy is jacked, famous and I guess rich by now, if he wants poosy he should pull a Bilzerian and just slay. Or get a proper harem of 20 year old hotties. The faux intellectual thing of pretending to be so deep (he does therapy!) just rubs me the wrong way.
Never watched his podcast, all this healthmaxxing genre strikes me as charlatanry for the slightly higher IQ, so not surprised he turned out to be yet another garden variety wordcel scumbag of a certain tribe.
I'd heard of the guy but never subscribed to his podcast or bought his supplements. I agree that he seems to be of a certain “type” - high charisma, high chutzpah, little regard for the unwritten rules (e.g. being a celebrity professor at Stanford while living in L.A.). One thing I find funny is that he gets coded as RW by the media simply because his content appeals to men who have some semblance of normality / wanting to better themselves (see also JBP, Rogan, etc).

Many such cases.
Once upon a time, my boss's trad wife took my pregant wife under her wing and told her “Sometimes just being normal is revolutionary.”
(Now I'm that guy talking about her rapist.)
