Mike and Myka are both really good guests. Mike is revealing himself as a pretty ballsy and interesting young dude, and Myka cracks me the fuck up.

I haven't read the pick up artist stuff but a lot of it sounds pretty on the money, apart from the dumb neg examples. The main core idea - being that guys need to learn not to put hot girls on a pedestal as godesses that they need to constantly fawn over - isn't new or revelatory, Keith himself has expressed the same thoughts when he talks about how he used to have no idea how to talk to chicks.

Myka expressed it perfectly when she said there's something repulsive about someone from the opposite sex who instantly needs you. I get Chemda's point that the pick up methods in and of themselves are lacking in meaningful depth but her denial in the face of hard evidence that they can be effective even on chicks like Myka who are hot but not idiots is comically absurd.
