Stay the same my bro. I've been following you since back in the days with Duchaine, Phillips, et al. How I long for those guinea pig days. Don't change a thing your doing.
Like Vance I found you through the masculinity stuff, but have enjoyed the nutrition posts as well. But more than anything, I enjoy your writing, so you could write about poodles or puffer fish and odds are, I’d find myself taking time to give it a read.
I subscribed when I read the masculinity essays, but had been reading you at T-Nation. Posts like that are good with enough humor to not be boringly clinical.
Could do more culture stuff, stick it behind the paywall to weed out trolls.
Round-ups. My round-ups are eclectic from highlighting posts on culture, religion while having a nearly hour long video by The Fat Electrician on WW2 history like this Saturday’s post.
TC, you don't need to change a thing. You get the job done with high marks every time. Your prose is unmatched!
I'm glad to be able to say I've known you for ~20 years and had the privilege of meeting you and the always lovely Mrs. a few times (tell her I said Hi).
And send me some info on the French Polynesian vacation. It's on my bucket list and has been since you first wrote about it back in yesteryear on TN.
Thanks man. Truly appreciate it. Info on FP? I dunno. It's mine, all mine! Alright, what do you want to know? We've been 14 times and to several islands, so yes, I am an authority on all things French Polynesian. Email me or text me.
I’m fairly new to your work. I enjoyed every single article on Substack, no matter the topic. Came for the facts, stayed for the sexy humor, so from my point of view just keep writing whatever comes to your mind!
Been following for a couple decades plus, saw your writing even back in the magazine days, didn't get the vibe back than, but since TN, I think you know, been a big fan. You write it, I'm there, simple as that. I personally have no idea how you're not much more popular considering you have jibbering idiots posting absolute nonsense, and they're pulling in numbers on social media that is mind boggling.
Like a great deal of things (far right taking over TN), I have NO idea wtf is going on sometimes, but I'm an old school guy, who ended up with a hell of a life, family, businesses...literal luckiest man in the world. I'm a former professional bodybuilder, powerlifter, martial artist, and still look damn good at 62, so now it's longevity/quality of life, main knowledge that's being sought, but hey, you ALWAYS entertain me.
I don't know the internet, I got "people" who do everything for our businesses, but there has to be an outlet for your talents brother...seriously. IMO, write a book with the most "out there" stuff, and it will sell...that's just me. The more controversial, the more it will sell, lol.
After seeing the pics of your vacation, got the itch to get to Belize with the family. Scheduling always sucks, maybe just the wife and I. Hope you're refreshed, this was good thinking on getting feedback, hope it does what you want, drives more traffic.
Always wish you and yours the very best, never doubt yourself, you're a great writer on multiple fronts.
Nice reply. Thanks much! I always thought I'd bet more traction too, but lots of the blame goes on me. I'm notoriously publicity shy, e.g., I've turned down 4 or 5 interviews in the last few months. (I just hate appointments in general and what is an interview but yet another appointment?)I could always go the podcast/tiktok/social media thing in general, but the thought of it makes me blanche. I did do those two books (compilations) a decade or so ago, but my ex-partner-turned-boss didn't allow me to publicize the books on T Nation. So it goes. And yes, get thee to Belize again, young man. Again, thanks for the support and the words of support. Much appreciated.
Nutrition, life, masculinity, penis nibbling sea creatures. It’s all good.
If only they just nibbled. That might even be pleasurable.
Stay the same my bro. I've been following you since back in the days with Duchaine, Phillips, et al. How I long for those guinea pig days. Don't change a thing your doing.
Much appreciated!
Hi TC
I enjoy all your articles. Feel free to write abut whatever comes to mind.
Thanks, Marc! Say hello to your mom for me.
Thanks! I definitely Will!

Poodles it is! Thanks!

Hello,I have been enjoying what you have been posting. Please keep it coming.
Even if I was not interested in the subject matter you always come up with a good read.
You having such variety has been refreshing.
I know this isn’t really helpful for you.
I guess more stuff aimed at old guys I would like since I am older.
No, it WAS helpful. Thanks!

Thank you!
I read you for your great turn of phrase and breezy writing style. I liked your Atomic Dog work. More of that please.
Glad to hear that. Been itching to do some of it (although I think I'll still mix it up a bit).
