New York, NY—August 6, 2026—The Strip Club Cowboy, Mike Dickinson, the Regional Manager of the Pony Clubs was a guest on The Digital Social Hour Podcast hosted by Sean Kelly where he debated on the topics of Israel, masculinity, mental health, and feminism against influencer King Azoulay along with nine other entertainment figures that includes porn stars Carmela Clutch and Emma Rose.

“It was a great experience to go on the show and defend women,” says Mike who is nominated for an ED Award for Progressive Manager of the Year. “I think far too many people are negative towards women or have outdated stereotypes.”

In this Digital Social Hour episode, Sean Kelly hosts King Azoulay in a heated 1 vs 10 debate covering three major prompts: whether the United States should continue supporting Israel, whether mental health is real, and whether feminism has damaged modern society.

Over the next 15 years, he owned and operated multiple clubs throughout the Richmond area, mastering the business of creating memorable experiences and connecting with people from all walks of life. In 2020, seeking his next challenge, Dickinson partnered with industry veteran Jerry Westlin to help expand Pony Clubs into Tennessee. What began as a single club in a small market has grown into a thriving regional operation under his leadership.

Known for his relentless drive, creativity, and ability to juggle multiple high-level projects, Dickinson is passionate about delivering exceptional value to guests through smart marketing, headline-grabbing events, and genuine human interaction, something he believes no digital platform can ever replac
