Here's Stef's message to young men in a nutshell (this isn't a new position or anything, all I had to do was start listening to his latest show).
10 sec audio: https://clyp.it/3fhidj2i
For those who didn't TL;DL - this is actually Stef convincing a female caller she should've dated betas, instead of fucking alphas.
I'd bet money the female caller is looking at the Wall, either in front of her or behind her. So not a direct message to young men. But the indirect message to all men is simple and well-known here:
Alpha fucks, beta bucks.

I am currently having second thoughts about the guy after he started crying uncontrollably in his last video. Something is strange.

I didn't see the video of him crying but he does get worked up and yell at the camera quite a bit (usually in the 'what pisses me off' stuff). I just figured this was his theatre background, though it is a bit off putting

The "Reasons you should deFOO" text at the 6:10 mark in the video Roosh linked above is particularly indicative of cult-like methods.

Has anyone got any video of his wife speaking?

I haven't heard Molyneux mention that "DeFoo" stuff in a long, long time. I think he's mostly grown out of it.
Whether it was a cult at one time or not, I can't say, but now he's more or less what he looks like: an alt-right political podcaster with a huge following.

Molyneux has a new video up today where he talks with (more like listens to) Diamond and Silk talk about the recent events and how the country is being divided. Most know Diamond and Silk from their somewhat unfiltered, loud, etc. interviews and speeches involving Trump. However, here the emotion is still high, but they make some excellent points and are much more rationale and logical than their usual interviews and speeches would imply.

Still pretty sure he'll get checked into a looney bin at some point. He's walled himself off in his doom studio, staring sullenly into his doom camera, scoffing at all his callers-in when they're not as doomey as him. Eventually he's just going to have a psychotic break, someone will find him curled up in the corner of his bathroom, gnawing his shoe and muttering how we're all slaves.

His contempt and lack of compassion for his own followers when they call in, no matter how smart he is, or how good his advice is, is striking. It can't go on.
Also all his views on race and I.Q. are so obviously shout outs to himself, the high I.Q. guy, hey that's life folks, some of us got it and others don't, that they are almost impossible to listen to.
You may be right. There is a lot of psychological dysfunction below the surface that he covers over with bluster.
It also could turn out that he will just keep on keeping on, his niche remaining as people who imagine themselves to be superior in the same way he does, finding him over time and egging him on.

I'd be more willing to watch his videos if he pared them down to 10 or even 15 minutes.
If you're going to sit and ramble for 45+ minutes at a camera, you might as well pay someone to transcribe the audio so people with shit to do can just read what you had to say.

I'm really surprised by how many guys on the forum seem to hate Molyneux, his opinions on socio-politics are pretty much in line with what goes on here. Videos can be long but the shorter ones on current events tend to be a good way to get caught up on stuff.

He's right some of the time, and creepy all of the time.

What Molyneux would say to pretty much all of his criticism here: #NotAnArgument
"Christian love bears evil, but it does not tolerate it. It does penance for the sins of others, but it is not broadminded about sin. Real love involves real hatred: whoever has lost the power of moral indignation and the urge to drive the sellers from temples has also lost a living, fervent love of Truth."
- Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen

He's very good at sociopolitics, and very bad at male-female relationships. Although this forum has a strong political aspect, we're more of a Game / Travel forum, which explains our dislike of Molyneux.

I didn't have to google him to figure out that he was a theater guy and a history major at college.

He certainly embodies the conservative tendency to convert tabloid fodder into socio-political theories.
I watched his videos on Robin Williams and Prince; pseudo-intellectual gossip, but quite entertaining.
