He's Going To CHEAT — And It's NOT Wrong" | The Enjoyment President What happens when the man who gets PAID to party sits down to talk about love, marriage, and the hard truths nobody wants to admit? In this episode of The Unbroken Podcast, Richard Akita sits down with John Michael — social worker, development consultant, and self-styled "Enjoyment President" — for one of the most honest conversations on relationships we've ever recorded. We get into the controversial truth about long-distance relationships and why he believes a partner left alone for 9 months "will find someone." We unpack why your dream partner becomes a real (and very human) person after the wedding, the social media lie that quietly ends relationships, and the father's role that decides how his daughters will be loved for the rest of their lives.

They say love is a decision, not a feeling.
John Michael· Guest0:18

Richard Akita· Host0:28
Wow.
