What do you get when you raise a boy in a house full of books, Nobel prizes, and emotional abandonment?
You get Dave—a startup founder turned gambling mule, now flying to Texas to place $40K bets for a man who doesn’t make eye contact. But this isn’t a story about addiction. It’s a case study in the collapse of fatherhood, the pathology of passive men, and the legacy panic that kicks in when success was inherited but never earned.
In this episode of PrecisionCycle, Enrique unpacks how Dave’s startup collapse wasn’t the failure—it was the cover story. We explore how men reenact emotional abandonment through risk, proxy purpose, and object-based relationships. We break down what happens when erotic containment fails, when father energy disappears, and when men have no blueprint to hold the weight of legacy.
This is Daddy Issues in the age of DraftKings. This is elevate.epo, let’s open it up.
