It's been weeks. Maybe months. You're wondering what happened to the woman who used to want you. She's wondering what happened to the guy who used to romance her. And neither of you is talking about it.

In this episode, Dennis Procopio (The Bro Coach®) and Andrew Bontz get primal. After diving deep into philosophy, spirituality, and the Man Code, it's time to talk about the thing most guys won't admit they're struggling with: why you're not getting sex, and what you're actually getting wrong.

This isn't about tricks or tactics. It's about understanding that she needs emotional connection before physical intimacy, and you need to check the romantic boxes before you check hers. Dennis breaks down why communication is the gateway to better sex, why performance kills intimacy, and what it actually takes to go from dead bedroom to deep connection.
