Yeah, it's the same guy. I've been watching a lot of his videos lately, I'm not even sure why. He has some truth, but I have problems with some of what he says. He basically seems to be saying that women are universally appealing, and they aren't going to be interested in most men. That women live in complete abundance, and men live in scarcity. He has a video where he compares men to birds who build a nest and dance in front of it, and then if a girl likes his dance she will choose him.
I very firmly believe there is more than one way to skin a cat. You can cold approach, you can use dating apps, you can use social circle, you can join activities where you can meet people, you can volunteer or take a part time job to meet people, you can pickup girls in bars, whatever works for you.
The advantage of social circle over pickup is with pickup, you have no idea what the girl is like. She could be a psycho single mother with four kids and a meth habit. With social circle, at least you have some idea of what she is about, so that's why you're more likely to find high quality in a social group.
