Stefan Dobrescu is a 25-year-old YouTuber whose channel Gentlemen's Order is part of a growing movement among young men toward classic style, etiquette, and even classic values.

We get into why dressing well changes how you see yourself, the limits of costume-y vintage looks, and how to stand out in a world of hoodies without looking ridiculous.

Stefan shares his approach to dating without apps, being a good man in a relationship, and avoiding the modern “submissive boyfriend” trap.

We finish with his favorite novels, plans for a future clothing brand, and whether the gentleman movement is really just self-improvement advice but in better clothes.

Aurélia is the founder of Mademoiselle Diaries, an online movement that helps women discover classic femininity and elegance. Mademoiselle Diaries has a parallel mission to that of Gent Z. While Gent Z aspires to create a generation of gentlemen, Aurélia is inspiring modern women to find their inner lady. Aurélia and I sat down to discuss dating with elegance, how to be a gentleman in 2025, and how women are rediscovering their femininity.

Aaron Marino is the ORIGINAL men's lifestyle YouTuber and has expanded his empire to include several multi-million dollar businesses. But life was not always good for AlphaM. He filed bankruptcy before 30 after his fitness center failed, which only fueled his issues with alcohol. However, Aaron's story of success is one of self-determination, sheer grit, and entrepreneurial creativity. Without AlphaM's example, I probably wouldn't be doing what I do today. So to have this conversation was not only a total joy but a real honor.

Adam Radcliffe is a modern adventurer, personal trainer, and first-class gentleman. After realizing his life was set on a course of mediocrity, he suddenly quit his job to pursue a life of adventure. From jungles to mountains to underwater shipwrecks, Adam has explored them all before hitting his 30th birthday. In 2025, Adam will take on his most daring adventure yet as he and three Royal Marines row from Manhattan to Southampton, attempting to break the Guinness World Record for crossing the North Atlantic. Adam and I spoke not only about adventure, but also confidence, finding purpose, and how the progress you make in the gym will transform your life philosophy.
