This week's stories: Smartphone App Catches What Sleep Trackers Miss A 2026 trial found that suvorexant, a popular prescription sleep drug, improves sleep quality scores — but worsens morning alertness and cognitive function while improving afternoon and evening performance. The study used a smartphone app to pulse users throughout the day, revealing a split-time-of-day signal that traditional sleep scales miss entirely. Optimizing your sleep dashboard and optimizing your waking performance are not the same thing.

Instead, the bats maintain genome integrity through superior DNA repair and oxidative stress management driven by the metabolic demands of flight. Telomere length may be a symptom, not the cause — and the longevity industry has been measuring the wrong thing.

The mechanism is dual — soluble galactomannan fibers slow carbohydrate absorption while bioactive compounds improve insulin receptor sensitivity in muscle and liver. It's a cheap, food-grade, CGM-trackable lever that most people have never tried.

Arterial stiffness improved by 1.18 meters per second — equivalent to reversing roughly a decade of age-related decline. Blood pressure dropped 6.1 millimeters of mercury, outperforming aerobic exercise, HIIT, the DASH diet, omega-3s, and magnesium in head-to-head comparisons.

CO binds to hemoglobin more tightly than oxygen, quietly starving your brain, heart, and muscles while producing symptoms that mimic fatigue, brain fog, and the flu. The CDC estimates more than 400 Americans die from unintentional CO poisoning every year — and most of them never saw it coming.

The mechanism appears to be a mixed-fuel training effect: the liver and muscle learn to manage glucose and fat concurrently when both are present during high metabolic demand. Context changes the calculus, and the workout itself may be the variable that flips the equation.

A.I. is changing the ways war is waged. This week, we explore how the U.S. and Israel are using A.I. to identify targets in the conflict with Iran — and why data centers and fiber optic cables are targets on the front lines. Then, researcher Julie Bedard breaks down “A.I. brain fry,” a new condition she and her colleagues studied among A.I. users at work. And finally, Casey shares his battle with Grammarly after the company used his identity in a new A.I. feature, without his consent. Guest: Julie Bedard, managing director and partner at Boston Consulting Group who is also the lead author of a survey of “A.I. brain fry” in the workplace.

Stew dives into the raw truth of America's occupied government, where Zionist criminals like Netanyahu pull the strings on Trump's illegal war in Iran – all while feasting on taxpayer-funded crab legs and lobster tails. Scott Schara is with me exposing how the government is straight-up legally killing Americans through the medical beast, starting with the heartbreaking murder of his daughter Grace during the COVID scam.

In this episode, Jennie sits down with her longtime friend, mentor, and counselor Dr. Curt Thompson for a deep conversation about lies, healing, shame, neuroplasticity, and the power of community.Together, they explore why the lies we believe about ourselves can feel so normal that we stop noticing them, how those lies get embedded in us over time, and why freedom takes more than just hearing the truth once. This conversation is a powerful reminder that healing is not just about information - it is about practice, remembrance, and being deeply known by safe people.Resources & Links:GET JENNIE'S NEW BOOKJoin the fight clubFight Your Lie Tour Tickets hereCheck out Boll and BranchListen to more episodes: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTubeLearn More About JennieFollow Jennie on social:InstagramFacebook

Explore the neuroscience behind musical improvisation—and what it reveals about our natural capacity for creativity.Summary: Creativity may be more natural than we think. Research on musicians and children improvising at the piano suggests that improvisation can quiet the brain's inner critic while engaging networks linked to exploration, play, and reward. In this episode of The Science of Happiness, we look at the neuroscience of improvisation—and what a “beginner's mind” can teach us about opening up creativity in everyday life.How To Do This Practice: Choose a simple starting point: Begin with something familiar—a simple melody, rhythm, phrase, movement, or creative prompt. It could be notes on a keyboard, a beat you tap on the table, a few lines of writing, or even a movement with your body. Change one small thing: Experiment by altering a single element, like the speed, mood, rhythm, or key. Small changes help spark creativity without feeling overwhelming. Let go of judgment: Remind yourself there are no mistakes in improvisation, only possibilities. If something sounds unexpected, treat it as part of the exploration rather than something to fix. Follow your curiosity: Notice what sounds, patterns, or ideas interest you and build on them. Let each moment guide the next instead of planning too far ahead. Treat it like play: Approach improvisation with a playful mindset, the way kids experiment and explore. The goal isn't perfection—it's discovery and enjoyment. Reflect on how it felt: Afterward, take a moment to notice how the experience affected your mood or mindset. Many people find that improvising helps them feel more relaxed, creative, and open.

Stew does a dive deep into the escalating war in Iran – a Zionist-engineered catastrophe that's dragging America into Armageddon for Benjamin Netanyahu's dream of Greater Israel. Jake GTV exposes it: veteran just admitted the nightmare: she fought in the War on Terror only to realize SHE was the terrorist gunning down families—just like Fallujah, just like Gaza today. Zionist machine drags us to the Iran war for Greater Israel & Antichrist prophecy—false flags, Dow spikes, goyim bleed while Epstein stays buried.

Welcome to an extra special bonus episode recorded OVER A YEAR AGO in January 2025 that we truly believed would never see the light of the internet. We (Mike from Newest Olympian, Emily & Phoebe from Monster Donut, and Carter and Erica from here) all sat in a Disney van together on the way back to our hotel from our last hours on set for Season 2 and recorded this at the request of one famous Daphne Olive. We had just seen a top secret sizzle reel for Season 2 (imagine us all seeing a giant battle on Half-Blood Hill with NO CONTEXT) and were tasked to predict how the season would lead us there. Featuring discussion of cut dialogue and wildly incorrect hypothesizing, please enjoy, the first ever episode of, The Olympian Monster Brain Podcast.This episode is brought to you by Erin, Annie, and Daphne.

For 300,000 years, your brain has had one job it never missed.Detect what isn't human.Not through logic. Not through analysis. Through something much older and much faster, a visceral, instinctive signal buried deep in your nervous system that fires before you can even form a conscious thought. Too still. Too smooth. Wrong in a way you can't name. Run.That signal is called the uncanny valley. And it kept our species alive.Until now.Because the thing that just spoke to you online, the face in that video, the voice on the other end of that call, AI has crossed the threshold. The glitch is gone. The wrongness is gone. Your ancient alarm system is firing at nothing, because it no longer knows what to fire at.And evolution cannot keep up with a technology that doubles in capability every eighteen months.So what happens to a species that loses the ability to detect its predators? What happens to trust, to relationships, to society itself, when the line between human and not-human disappears completely?

After Deborah Kan's mother, Alvera Kan, died in December of last year, the family donated her brain to UCSF to better understand what type of dementia she had. The answer came back with not just one diagnosis, but three different types of dementia: Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementia, and LATE. Kan and her sister, Susan Whitaker, are joined by Dr. Bruce Miller, director of the UCSF Edward and Pearl Fein Memory and Aging Center, and Dr. David Soleimani-Meigooni, a neurologist at UCSF's Memory and Aging Center and assistant professor focused on precision diagnosis in Alzheimer's and related neurodegenerative diseases. Miller's work has helped shape how clinicians identify and distinguish different forms of dementia, including frontotemporal dementia, while Soleimani-Meigooni's clinical and research work includes using imaging and biomarkers to better understand amyloid, tau and other drivers of cognitive decline.In this conversation with Kan and Whitaker, Miller and Soleimani-Meigooni discuss how dementia diagnosis can remain uncertain during life and how an autopsy can reveal multiple diseases. They underscores how common mixed dementias are, why symptoms such as getting lost or struggling with numbers can point to specific brain changes, and why better diagnostic tools are needed. They also highlight the lasting scientific value of brain donation, showing how one family's decision can contribute to more precise diagnoses, better biomarkers, and, ultimately, more individualized treatment approaches for future patients.---If you loved listening to this Live Talk, visit our website to find more of our Alzheimer's coverage and subscribe to our newsletter: https://www.beingpatient.com/Follow Being Patient: Twitter: https://twitter.com/Being_Patient_Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beingpatientvoices/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/beingpatientalzheimersLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/being-patientBeing Patient is an editorially independent journalism outlet for news and reporting about brain health, cognitive science, and neurodegenerative diseases.

What if understanding how AI thinks could reveal uncomfortable truths about how your own brain works, and give you powerful tools to make smarter decisions, resist manipulation, and upgrade your cognition at the root level? -Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Tom Griffiths, the Henry R. Luce Professor of Information Technology, Consciousness, and Culture in the Departments of Psychology and Computer Science at Princeton University. Griffiths directs Princeton's Computational Cognitive Science Lab, a research group focused on understanding the mathematical foundations of human cognition, and the Princeton Laboratory for Artificial Intelligence. He is the coauthor of Algorithms to Live By and the author of the new book The Laws of Thought, and his award-winning research has appeared in Science, Nature, and the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Together, Dave and Tom go deep on the cognitive science behind human performance, brain optimization, and the surprising overlap between biohacking and artificial intelligence. They explore why your body filters reality before your conscious brain ever sees it, how your mitochondria function as a distributed cognitive network, and what that means for longevity, decision-making, and neuroplasticity. You'll Learn: Why AI models reveal that humans may be more "stochastic parrots" than we'd like to admit How your mitochondria pre-process sensory reality before your auditory cortex even fires Why emotions like anger, love, and remorse are computational tools evolution built into your reward function How low energy and blood sugar directly degrade your decision-making at a hardware level What "resource rationality" means and how to use it to make better decisions under constraint Why AI systems have measurable psychological personalities, and which ones are least likely to mess with your head How neuroplasticity can eliminate the inner critic and reshape your mental operating system Why two-process cognition (fast and slow thinking) is a feature, not a bug, of human intelligence Thank you to our sponsors! -BEYOND Biohacking Conference 2026 | Register with code DAVE300 for $300 off https://beyondconference.com-Essentia | Go to https://myessentia.com/dave and use code DAVE for $100 off The Dave Asprey Upgrade.-Quantum Upgrade | Try it free for 15 days — no credit card required — at QuantumUpgrade.io/DAVE.

Today on The Gist, bestselling author Nir Eyal joins the show to discuss his new book, Beyond Belief: The Science-Backed Way to Stop Limiting Yourself and Achieve Extraordinary Results. He explains how the lead singer of Sofi Tukker cured her chronic neuroplastic pain by "throwing ass," why vision boards and manifesting actually ruin your chances of success, and why the placebo effect is getting statistically stronger every year. They also break down the critical difference between facts, faith, and beliefs—and why treating our beliefs as immutable truths is tearing society apart. Plus, Mike gives it to you straight. A geographical rundown of the world's most important, and underrated, straits.

The average American unknowingly throws away up to $1,500 a year — and it's happening right in your own kitchen. It's not obvious. It doesn't feel wasteful in the moment. But small, everyday habits quietly drain real money from your grocery budget. There are a few surprisingly simple shifts that can stop the leak. https://www.usda.gov/foodlossandwaste/consumers Your beliefs about yourself — your abilities, your limits, your future — quietly shape your behavior every day. “I'm too old.” “I'm bad with money.” “I'll never succeed.” The problem is not that these statements are true — it's that you believe them to be true. Nir Eyal, author of Beyond Belief: The Science-Backed Way to Stop Limiting Yourself and Achieve Breakthrough Results (https://amzn.to/3OLvImC), explains how limiting beliefs form, why they feel so real, and how deliberately reshaping them can dramatically alter your trajectory in work, relationships, and life. Is memory loss inevitable as you age? Are we destined for cognitive decline? Dr. Majid Fotuhi, world-renowned neurologist and author of The Invincible Brain: The Clinically Proven Plan to Age-Proof Your Brain and Stay Sharp for Life (https://amzn.to/4l5s1nZ), says no. He explains that brain health is deeply influenced by lifestyle — including 14 factors you can control — and that protecting your mind requires the same intentional care as protecting your heart or body. When you need someone to say yes to a request, one short phrase can significantly increase your chances. It doesn't manipulate. It doesn't pressure. It simply taps into a powerful psychological principle that makes people more open to helping. https://brainblogger.com/2015/06/25/top-5-persuasion-techniques-of-2015/ PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS QUINCE: Don't keep settling for clothes that don't last!

Most people think feeling tired, foggy, and “off” is just what happens with age.But what if the real issue is that your cells are running on less fuel than they used to?In this episode of the Kwik Brain podcast, I sit down with Dr. Andrew Salzman, Harvard-trained physician, inventor, and biomedical entrepreneur, to unpack what's happening at the cellular level when energy drops and your brain stops feeling sharp.We break down NAD, a molecule involved in hundreds of critical reactions in the body, why it declines as you age, and how inflammation can accelerate that decline. We also talk about NMN, and why your brain is often the first place you feel the effects when cellular energy dips.In this episode, you'll learn: ☑️ What NAD does for energy, cognition, and resilience ☑️ Why NAD drops so significantly by midlife ☑️ How NMN works as a precursor to support NAD production ☑️ The “bathtub” model: why boosting NAD is not just about adding more, but also slowing the drain ☑️ How inflammation can drive NAD depletion through CD38 ☑️ Why better cellular energy can translate into clearer thinking, better memory, and sharper focusIf you've been feeling like your brain isn't firing the way it used to, your energy is unpredictable, or your focus is slipping, this episode will help you understand what's happening underneath the surface and what you can do to support your brain at the level where performance actually starts: your cells.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

If your business is built on your thinking, your insight, and your ability to diagnose problems, giving strategy away for free is not generosity. It's a broken revenue model. Too many consultants, advisors, and service-based professionals fall into the same pattern. We jump on call after call, answer “quick questions,” and unpack strategy before someone has made any real commitment. It feels productive in the moment. But the reality is different. Time gets drained. Energy disappears. Proposals get ghosted. And while we're entertaining window shoppers, the people who are actually ready to invest are waiting. In this episode, we break down the mindset shift many consultants need to make: clarity itself has value. Diagnosing problems, identifying direction, and helping someone understand what to do next is real work. Lawyers charge for advice. Doctors charge for diagnosis. Accountants charge for insight. Strategists, marketers, and consultants should too. In addition, let's unpack the larger reality happening across modern marketing and business. Why many companies misuse paid advertising, why marketing cannot fix weak products, and why the explosion of AI-driven content makes authentic positioning and human connection more important than ever. If you're a consultant, strategist, coach, or service-based entrepreneur who feels stuck chasing conversations that never convert, this episode will challenge how you think about value, boundaries, and how you position your expertise in the market. Key Topics Covered: Why letting people “pick your brain” for free undermines your business The hidden revenue cost of endless discovery calls Why chasing vanity metrics and pipeline volume can hurt real growth The difference between window shoppers and serious buyers Why clarity, diagnosis, and strategy are valuable services How consultants accidentally train clients to expect free expertise Why marketing cannot fix weak products or poor positioning When paid advertising actually works and when it doesn't Why human creativity and connection still matter in an AI-driven market How boundaries and positioning increase both revenue and respect Beyond The Episode Gems: Buy My Book, Strategize Up: The Blueprint To Scale Your Business: StrategizeUpBook.com Discover All Podcasts On The HubSpot Podcast Network Get Free HubSpot Marketing Tools To Help You Grow Your Business Grow Your Business Faster Using HubSpot's CRM Platform Support The Podcast & Connect With Troy:  Rate & Review iDigress: iDigress.fm/Reviews Follow Troy's Socials @FindTroy: LinkedIn, Instagram, Threads, TikTok Subscribe to Troy's YouTube Channel For Strategy Videos & See Masterclass Episodes Need Growth Strategy, A Keynote Speaker, Or Want To Sponsor The Podcast?

Why is it so hard to do something we say we want to do—like meditation? To hear this episode ad-free get a 7 day free trial right now. In this episode, Jen responds to a listener from her Patreon community who says she knows meditation is good for her but can't get herself to do it consistently. The conversation quickly turns into a bigger question: do you actually want to do the thing, or do you just think you're supposed to? Jen talks about ADHD, perfectionism, nervous system regulation, and how a lot of us get stuck trying to do things the "right" way. She also makes the point that meditation doesn't work for everyone and you don't have to force yourself to do it if it isn't the thing that helps you regulate. The real work is figuring out why you think you want to do something and what you're hoping it will give you. Jen also challenges the idea that consistency has to mean daily, and explains why doing something a few times a week might already count as consistent. Along the way, she discusses different ways people calm their nervous systems from walking meditation and mantra repetition to progressive muscle relaxation and EFT tapping, while encouraging listeners to rethink motivation, regulation, and the expectations we put on ourselves.

Published 9 March 2026 e543 with Andy, Michael and Michael – Stories and discussion on LEGO's new Smart Play brick, this is a human brain (cells) on Doom, orc audio for vibe coding, Liquid Death's Spotify urn for playlist immortality and a whole lot more. Michael, Michael and Andy get things rolling with Michael M's delivery of the newest innovation from LEGO, the Smart Play brick!   While Michael's only had a little bit of time to play with the new brick, it is already sparking some interesting ideas.  Check out the show notes below for what others are doing with it, now that the Smart Play brick is out and in the wild!  And of course the audio of the podcast for some of the sounds from the brick! An article about a biocomputing success to play Doom with human brain cells, reminds the cohosts of other biocomputing examples from e504.  The Ars Technica article about identifying anonymous users through LLMs likewise reminds the team of other examples for triangulating identity.  After a story about using the audio from Warcraft III in vibe coding experiences “work, work”, the team takes a look at “Humanity's Last Exam”, which likely has already been handled by an enterprising AI research team.   Turning next to a Norwegian PSA (that is NSFW and funny) on the slippery slope of digital products and services getting worse and worse, the team then considers a story about a partnership between Epic and Google for a new set of metaverse applications.  In yet another back to the future experience, the Niantic gaming functionality may provide a roadmap to how this partnership may grow. The team wraps up with a Liquid Death promo for how you may achieve musical immortality with a custom Spotify playlist played via a bluetooth urn.

She dropped out of school multiple times and was even homeless at one point.Something one might read with surprise, especially knowing that today Dr. Grisel is an internationally recognized behavioral neuroscientist and a professor of psychology at Bucknell University, who joins us in this first episode in our series on addiction.I always love having guests on the show who not only have professional knowledge of the topic being discussed, but who have also personally walked the path and therefore know what it's like to go through it.To me, Dr. Grisel isn't just an incredible researcher, but also a role model for anyone struggling with addiction — showing that it doesn't have to define you, and that your future might hold more potential than you realize.Don't forget to follow us to stay tuned for the next episode in this series on addiction.And follow us on Instagram, or sign up for our newsletter, to stay notified when the next health expert appears on the show — so you can send in your questions.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/innerpathseekers/Newsletter: https://theipsproject.com/newsletter/

Dr Peter Salerno is a social psychologist, professor, and researcher. Why are narcissists so manipulative? At some point in your life, you've probably encountered a narcissist. They can take control of a situation so subtly that before you realize it, you're caught under their influence. So how can you spot a narcissist early, and what can you do to protect yourself from their manipulation? Expect to learn why people repeatedly tend to hurt others deliberately, which parts of the brain are actually involved in empathy and self-control, why the idea that “hurt people hurt people” is so attractive, why narcissists often pull someone close and then suddenly push them away, how to spot when flirting or drama turn into manipulation, if someone can be genuinely in emotional pain and still choose to hurt others and much more… Sponsors: See discounts for all the products I use and recommend: ⁠https://chriswillx.com/deals⁠ Get a Free Sample Pack of LMNT's most popular flavours with your first purchase at https://drinklmnt.com/modernwisdom Get 35% off your first subscription on the best supplements from Momentous at https://livemomentous.com/modernwisdom Get 15% off your first order of my favourite Non-Alcoholic Brew at https://athleticbrewing.com/modernwisdom New pricing since recording: Function is now just $365, plus get $25 off at https://functionhealth.com/modernwisdom Extra Stuff: Get my free reading list of 100 books to read before you die: ⁠https://chriswillx.com/books⁠ Try my productivity energy drink Neutonic: ⁠https://neutonic.com/modernwisdom⁠ Episodes You Might Enjoy: #577 - David Goggins - This Is How To Master Your Life: ⁠https://tinyurl.com/43hv6y59⁠ #712 - Dr Jordan Peterson - How To Destroy Your Negative Beliefs: ⁠https://tinyurl.com/2rtz7avf⁠ #700 - Dr Andrew Huberman - The Secret Tools To Hack Your Brain: ⁠https://tinyurl.com/3ccn5vkp⁠ - Get In Touch: Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/chriswillx⁠ Twitter: ⁠https://www.twitter.com/chriswillx⁠ YouTube: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/modernwisdompodcast⁠ Email: ⁠https://chriswillx.com/contact⁠ - Learn more about your ad choices.

I'll show you how to reconnect with what energizes you, experiment with new experiences, and start moving toward a life that feels effortless and fulfilling. Feeling stuck? It's time to take back control. If you're ready to master your mind and create real, lasting change, click the link below and start transforming your life today.

This week's stories: Healthy Diets That Offset "Bad Genes" A major UK Biobank study of over 100,000 people found that following any one of five healthy dietary patterns was associated with up to 3 extra years of life — and the benefit held regardless of genetic predisposition to longevity. Your DNA is not an excuse. The macro pattern matters more than the perfect protocol. • Sources: -https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.ads7559 -https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12904179 -https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/eat-well-live-longer-study-5-healthy-diet-plans-longevity Micro-Habits in Sleep, Activity, and Diet That Extend Life Researchers built a composite "SPAN" score combining sleep, movement, sedentary time, and diet quality and found that small improvements across all four — we're talking minutes per day — cut mortality risk by up to 64% when stacked together.

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, my guest is Dr. Charles Zuker, PhD, a professor of biochemistry, molecular biophysics and neuroscience at Columbia University and an Investigator with the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI). We explore taste perception and how the brain transforms chemical signals from food into distinct taste experiences. We discuss how these taste signals shape both conscious choices and unconscious behavior, as well as how food preferences can change over time. Additionally, we discuss gut–brain signaling and explain why sugar is especially powerful at driving cravings. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.

The word “trauma” is used so widely at present, arguably too widely. But it bespeaks a tenor of our shared reality. This episode is a journey inside what I've come to see as a parallel universe unfolding, where our species is unlocking knowledge about ourselves and capacities for radical healing of the most extreme trauma and distress. These findings are even giving rise to dramatic healing alliances across political and social lines that are inflamed in the culture at large.  At universities and research laboratories around the U.S. and world, there are countless clinical studies, yielding results it's hard not at times to call miraculous — for complex PTSD, long-term addiction, treatment-resistant depression. What I'm talking about are therapeutically-administered treatments with plant medicines and chemical compounds we call psychedelic or empathogenic. Use those words, and many of us — including me until not that long ago — might become wary. Like all forces of great power, these can cut in every direction — the dark and the light of the human condition. But the conversation you are about to hear, with one of the leading neuroscientists in this field, revolves around serious, important research in settings designed for careful, beneficial human effect. Gül Dölen's groundbreaking contribution to all of us is in her fascinating insight into what psychedelically-assisted therapies are revealing about the workings of the human brain and the brain's capacity to change and the human capacity for major transformation altogether. The potential consequences of this science are intimate and civilizational at once. I see them as a stunning ray of hope in a struggling world. I interviewed Gül Dölen at the 2025 Aspen Ideas Festival. Find an excellent transcript of this show, edited by humans, on our show page.
