I'm proud to announce that my first book The Rational Male is now available on Audible and will be up on iTunes and Amazon within the week.
http://www.audible.com/pd/Self-Development/The-Rational-Male-Audiobook/B01E61CYCA/
It's been a long time coming I know, and there's a long story behind it, but the audio quality and narration by Sam Botta was well worth the effort.
Please let me know your feed back here. This is the first time I've ever produced an audio book and I have plans to do the 2nd, so TRP's input is vital to me. This is your book as much as mine.

Wow this makes me so happy. Having a learning disability is a big challenge for me to read books. Thank you so much, does anyone know other books that is red pill available on audible? I already have no more mr. Nice guy.
White_Phillip 8y ago
I was literally just looking for a new commute listen on Audible. Downloading now.
IveRedditAllNight 8y ago
Just bought it for $0.00 with the free trial. I hope you still get paid.
Thank you for your service!
StandWatie 8y ago
The narrator was a little too dry for me.
wiseprogressivethink 8y ago
Getting Sam Botta to read it is no joke, bro. Congrats. Wish you success.
Broken-Dad 8y ago
What is going on at 40 minutes into the book? There is multiple voices.
ledditor_1337 8y ago
Hey matey, I got your 'book' (http://i.imgur.com/BDxr6j5.png) I'll give it a listen tomorrow.
It this the stuff for beginners or what?

Is there no rule in this sub about self promotion?
redpillschool Admin 8y ago
We make exceptions when it's rollo.
ven5 8y ago
Even if there was, the sub owes Rollo the self promotion.
Modified_Hackware 8y ago
... Bitch please. This man has done more for you than anyone else ever will and you don't even know who he is?
LyricBaritone 8y ago
Hey Rollo, just curious - did you used to post about MMA on Bloodyelbow? There was a guy there with your username.
Manima1 8y ago
Great listed to the sample sounds great, haven't had a chance to read yet so looking forward to when this hits Audible UK
zip360 8y ago

A taste of Sam Botta´s voice.
Sounds like a good pick to me.
Rollo-Tomassi 8y ago
It's available from Amazon too: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01E61AYRM?pldnSite=1
__Archaeus__ 8y ago
Just bought it. Sounding great so far.
Thanks for all your knowledge and passion Rollo. This manosphere has help me and so many others.
AbyssalPlainsman 8y ago
Do you still get paid if we sign up for an Audible free trial? May sound like a foolish question, but I don't want you to get gypped either.
Rollo-Tomassi 8y ago
Yes! Please do. Sam and I share a $50 bonus for anyone who signs up for Audible and chooses my book as their free signup book.
Couldbeanyjuan 8y ago
Just signed up and chose your's for the free book. Thank you for everything you've contributed. We all appreciate the effort you've put in to making the book!
AbyssalPlainsman 8y ago
Excellent. Signed up, downloaded and have it ready to listen to on my phone. Thanks for giving us all a heads up.
teamjkforawhile 8y ago
Oh, that's great to know. Such an easy way to throw you support.
PittyParra 8y ago
Beautiful I have a 12 hour flight next month. Look forward it listening to it.
-Riskbreaker- 8y ago
Good stuff Rollo! Just wanted to comment that I love the book, read through the kindle versions of this and preventative medicine. I feel like they might lose some of their effect however due to the many formatting and grammatical errors still present in the latest versions. If you get a decent editor to sift through them it would do wonders for future sales/reputation etc.
Str8_Pillin 8y ago
I wish i knew about the free trial bonus, i bought it because i thought it would benefit more.
It's awesome so far. I did notice at about 40 min in that the track doubles up for about 20 seconds. Atleast on my version. It's not too hard to follow though
Manima1 8y ago
Yes quite a few audio glitches so far
TRUMSCHVSVCTRY 8y ago
Hey Rollo,
I've watched a few of your video interviews and one of the voice ones on YouTube. It's an honor to read your blog and reply to a posting of your's; I've gained many needed insights. The voice work done for "Hypergamy Doesn't Care" was insanely enlightening. Hope your sales blow through the roof man.
Some context, my buddy is getting divorced and he's strumming every chord all wrong. It's nice to hear a prominent voice through the manosphere.
Fr3akShow 8y ago
You clocked another sale my friend! I just bought a copy from Audible.com.
I only discovered TRP concepts about 8 months ago and my SMV has has already increased--not massively (yet), but enough to realize you guys are on point. Thanks for writing this and sharing your wisdom. As a lifelong beta, I appreciate your rational approach to these topics.

Where is the chase? And how do I cut to it?

What differentiates this book from the sidebar material? I'm thinking about buying it so I'm curious as to what you guys think.
redpillschool Admin 8y ago
It is the sidebar material.

The Rationale Male is a must read

Glad you asked, my narrator is Sam Botta: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sambotta
American television and radio host, documentary producer, published author, entrepreneur and 'that' voice (voice actor)
itsxeno 8y ago
I hear you have no sense of humor

Notice how he didn't address the material of the book in any fashion.
itsxeno 8y ago
Look at the date, they could have just met or he might not have read it yet, who knows. Video is a year old.

Fred 'Betabux Bluepiller' Willard. His comment about buying her a beautiful, expensive dress and putting her in a limo? As betabux as it gets.

Urfeelsdntmatr 8y ago
Give him some credit, he did essentially call women whores.
EBPLLRP 8y ago
Sounds like from his perspective, that's the only way you very girls.
Clint_Redwood 8y ago
Did you have to go through any kind of bullshit for publishing or editing? Not sure what your book entails but if it's anything along the lines of TRP narrative I'd imagine some bp editor's heads would explode.
stickfiguresk 8y ago
It contains the exact modus operandi of TRP, similar to the first half of BANG, if you've read that.
refusewool 8y ago
What's your opinion on BANG? I've heard some say it isn't very useful whilst others rate it quite highly.
stickfiguresk 8y ago
Roosh is a really good writer, and he does a good job of describing red pill ideals in the first half of the book, while Rollo takes a much more anylitical approach to the material in The Rational Male--typical of his style on his blog.
The latter half of BANG is basic PUA technique, and the very ending is perfect for guys that have trouble F-closing the same day you meet a woman, or on a first date. I really enjoyed it and consider it mandatory RP material. It's a bit dated now, though. Roosh even says in it, "I don't think this new texting fad is going to catch on."
The topics are mostly basic RP. I really enjoyed DAY BANG too.
triplementhol 8y ago
are there plans to release this on Audible UK. I have 5 credits their but its only available on the US site it seems
onetowatch 8y ago
seconded, would love to see this on the UK store.
Theophagist 8y ago
Do you lose out on any money if I get it free for signing up for Audible?
Rollo-Tomassi 8y ago
No quite the opposite, we get a $50 bounty if you do.
rkrocks123 8y ago
No, he actually gets a bonus if it's the first book you get after signing up.
Also, appsumo.com has a deal where you get 3 books for $1 each (one per month)
mpgh1 8y ago
i love to learn about rational/irrational things so i would probably like it :)
hbPUA 8y ago
Great Rollo! I've been meaning to reread your book. But haven't had much time to sit down with it because of other books. Bought it on audible now, to listen while commuting and working.
Thanks for the great work and reminding us how girls are.

ghostbrainalpha 8y ago
I am playing it extra loud so the lesbians who live upstairs can hear too.
Sorry if those free loaders don't buy their own copy.
absolucion 8y ago
Congratulations, Rollo. I'll have to grab a copy of the audio book on Audible tomorrow.
redpillnexus 8y ago
Great book. This is good news. I'll be sure to pick it up.
redpillschool Admin 8y ago
Great news. I recently subscribed to Audible for long car trips.
runr6 8y ago
Use it on my long runs. Best investment ever
RedPill_FightClub 8y ago
Rollo, this is awesome. I have hard copy of both your books. And kindle versions. Keep up the great work!
Strike48 8y ago
Bought that shit. Was going to read it soon through text, but I've been busy af with the gym/school/work routine. Now I can just listen to it while at work. Also 14 hours.. wtf..
marowitt 8y ago
Instant purchase, thank you for all your work
rugged_vanity 8y ago
Hands down, your blog has probably been one of the biggest influences in my life. But I'm not sure that an audiobook is the best format for your work. In fact, had I heard it first via audiobook it wouldn't have had nearly as much impact.
Your arguments are very well crafted, but statements and conclusions often need to be read, re-read and contemplated before moving forward.
While this would apply to any non-fiction, I'd say it's especially applicable to your work because of how thought provoking it is.
Taking moments between sentences to consider not only helps with comprehension, but also triggers little 'aha' moments when one links a theory you're suggesting with a moment in ones life.
What I also like about your work is that every article contains links to dozens of other posts which support the argument you're making. If it seemed important I'd stop mid-article, read the linked article, and go back to the article I was initially on. This works well online and in regular books using footnotes, but it doesn't seem workable at all in the audiobook format.
But I shouldn't let the perfect be the enemy of the good; for those who wouldn't have otherwise heard your work, listening to the rational male is surely better than not listening to it at all.
Rollo-Tomassi 8y ago
Actually, that's the main reason I allowed it to go 2 years before I put it on audio.
railatx 8y ago
Yes I will be buying this! Thanks!
detachedbymarriage 8y ago
I know where I'm spending my next point.
Thanks Rollo!
Boozt 8y ago
Just bought the kindle version and I wish I just got the audible version for my trip this weekend. :(

Lol. Strong trolling right here. If you are serious though, you're an idiot. But I'll just assume troll.
[deleted] 8y ago
You've gotta be a fucking idiot. Rollo has contributed so much to TRP, you gtfo.
dr_warlock 8y ago
Rollo is the sidebar. He's the foundation on which every other theory is built on.
[deleted] 8y ago
Not everything. But most of it. How the man figured all this out, is amazing to me. One of the first people to understand the female mind & gender dynamics.
