  • Michael Bilotech on Masculinity, Veganism & Challenging Charlie Kirk
    Jun 1 2025

    In this powerful episode of The Empathy Podcast, host Kevin Luna sits down with Michael Bilotech—self-improvement coach, creator of The Evolved Method, and a vocal advocate for veganism and authentic masculinity.

    Michael shares the story behind his viral debate with conservative commentator Charlie Kirk, where he dismantled arguments for eating animals with unshakable logic—and why the video was mysteriously taken down. Together, they explore:

    • How to debate veganism (and why it’s impossible to lose logically)

    • Redefining masculinity: Confidence, discipline, and empathy as true strength

    • The cognitive dissonance of meat-eating—and how to break through it

    • Performance myths: Thriving as a vegan athlete and bodybuilder

    • Why standing for the voiceless is the ultimate test of courage

    Michael also opens up about his personal journey—from overcoming a brain tumor to transforming his mindset—and how discipline shapes both masculinity and ethical choices.

    Whether you’re vegan, skeptical, or just curious about challenging societal norms, this episode will leave you rethinking what it means to be strong.
