Your skin is not just a cosmetic surface. It's a living organ that responds to signals, and the right light signal can flip your biology into repair mode. -Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR -Get a discount from LYMA by using code ‘DAVE10' at: https://lyma.life/ In this episode, Host Dave Asprey goes to London to meet Lucy Goff, founder of LYMA, at the LYMA headquarters. Lucy and her scientific team engineered a rare kind of at-home cold laser that delivers precise 808nm light with deep penetration, without burning, cutting, or “damaging to rebuild.” Their work is backed by published research in the Aesthetic Surgery Journal, and they've tested gene expression in human dermis, including a reported sixfold increase in SIRT1, a major longevity pathway. This is why you can trust this conversation. It's not vibes, it's engineering, biology, and data. Most “red light” products are basically glorified LEDs. They can be fine for the surface, but they do not deliver the kind of coherent, polarized, monochromatic light that your cells actually respond to in deep tissue. That matters because your mitochondria run the whole show. When mitochondria get a clean signal and more usable energy, your body suddenly has budget for repair, collagen, circulation, and recovery. That is the real mechanism behind anti-aging that does not rely on controlled injury. We get into how this kind of light hacking can change skin quality, muscle support under the skin, and even scars and fascia. We talk cartilage, knees, jowls, pigmentation, and the weird reality that you might not feel anything while it's working. Dave also shares his early biohacking experiments using light for brain optimization, including the time he overdid it and temporarily scrambled his speech. That story will make you respect the power of light as a biological tool. We also talk human performance and travel. Dave breaks down how he uses light management for sleep optimization and jet lag, and why controlling light is as important as controlling food, fasting, ketosis, and metabolism. There's also a practical angle here that most people miss: with AI, you can now take dense PubMed research and translate it into usable decisions without needing a PhD, which changes how fast you can learn, test, and personalize. If you care about longevity, neuroplasticity, recovery, and looking younger without trashing your tissue, this episode gives you a smarter way to think about lasers, supplements, nootropics, and the whole functional medicine stack. This is Smarter Not Harder biohacking, with a laser. You'll Learn: • Why LED “red light therapy” is not the same as laser-based mitochondrial activation • How coherent light influences mitochondria, collagen quality, and anti-aging repair • What gene expression changes like SIRT1 suggest about longevity signaling • How light may support brain optimization, circulation, and neuroplasticity • Why scars and fascia can disrupt performance, and how light can support remodeling • How Dave uses light and lifestyle hacking for sleep optimization, travel, and metabolism • How AI makes research-driven biohacking more accessible and more personal Thank you to our sponsors! • • • • Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade brings you the knowledge to take control of your biology, extend your longevity, and optimize every system in your body and mind. Each episode delivers cutting-edge insights in health, performance, neuroscience, supplements, nutrition, biohacking, emotional intelligence, and conscious living.

Today on The Rizzuto Show, the crew dives into one of the wildest entertainment moments of 2026 — the BAFTA Awards controversy involving a Tourette's documentary subject that has the internet divided. Intent vs. impact. Medical reality vs. public reaction. It's thoughtful, uncomfortable, and yes… still somehow a little chaotic because this is a comedy show.Then we spiral (naturally) into a full-blown Rock & Roll Hall of Fame argument. Toto. Huey Lewis. Kenny Loggins. Weird Al. Blink-182. Is the Rock Hall broken? Probably. Are we qualified to fix it? Absolutely not. Will that stop us? Never. Add in Bill Hader's new horror movie, Tom Hanks playing Lincoln, wild celebrity funeral facts, and Moon explaining why listening to podcasts at 1.8x speed makes him feel intellectually superior — and you've got peak Rizz Show energy.If you love funny podcast chaos, pop culture commentary, and sarcastic debates that feel like a group chat with microphones, welcome home.Subscribe for more daily comedy and St. Louis morning show madness.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

JAKEGTV is joining us live from the supposed war zone in Puerto Vallarta, where the Zionist media is shoving down endless footage of black smoke, burning buses, torched stores, flaming highways, and panicked tourists after the U.S.-backed hit on CJNG leader El Mencho. Stew Peters breaks down Tucker Carlson's absolute demolition of Mike Huckabee in their explosive Israel interview. Huckabee, the fake Christian Zionist US Ambassador to Israel, got caught red-handed pushing the Jewish supremacist fantasy that Israel has a “biblical right” to steal the entire Middle East from the Nile to the Euphrates.

Hidden fat stored deep inside organs, especially the pancreas and abdomen, links to brain shrinkage, cognitive decline, and a higher risk of neurologic disease even when your weight looks normal An MRI-based study of 25,997 adults found that fat distribution patterns inside the body predict brain aging and cognitive outcomes more strongly than body mass index (BMI) alone People with high pancreatic fat showed around 30% fat concentration in the pancreas, which was up to six times higher than lean individuals and tied to extensive gray matter loss The "skinny fat" profile involved high internal abdominal fat despite only moderate BMI, with men showing the steepest decline in brain volume and slower thinking speed Simple metabolic assessments like fasting insulin, HOMA-IR, CRP, lipid profiles, and waist-based ratios offer practical ways to detect hidden risks early, before obvious symptoms appear

Your brain may be ruining your life, not in obvious ways, but quietly and consistently. In this episode, Dr. Bray explores how everyday thinking patterns like overanalyzing, constant anticipation, and mental replay can slowly undermine performance, relationships, and well-being without us realizing it's happening. Rather than blaming stress, circumstances, or other people, Dr. Bray looks at how the brain's natural drive to protect and prepare often works against us in modern life. He explains how outdated survival patterns show up in work, leadership, and personal relationships, and why so many capable people feel mentally exhausted, stuck, or unable to fully enjoy success. If you've ever felt like your own thoughts are getting in the way of the life you want, this episode will challenge how you think about thinking. It offers a powerful reframe for understanding your mind, not as something to fight or fix, but as something that needs better guidance before it quietly takes over.   Quotes by Dr. Bray "Your brain did not evolve to make you calm or happy or fulfilled. It evolved to keep you alive."   "Just because your brain produces a thought doesn't mean it's true, useful, or worth your attention."   "Is this information — or is this imagination?"   "A delayed response becomes rejection. A brief comment becomes criticism. Silence becomes meaning."

Most people think feeling tired, foggy, or inflamed is just part of getting older. But what if the real problem isn't your age, your schedule, or even your sleep…What if it's oxidative stress?In this episode of the Kwik Brain podcast, I sit down with Dr. Nayan Patel, pharmacist, wellness expert, and one of the world's leading authorities on glutathione, the body's “master antioxidant,” to unpack why so many high performers hit a wall despite doing everything right.We explore how glutathione supports detoxification, mitochondrial energy, immune resilience, and brain protection, and why levels begin declining after your mid-30s. Dr. Patel explains how oxidative stress affects the brain first, why inflammation is rising globally, and how restoring glutathione may help support clarity, recovery, and long-term cognitive performance.In this episode, you'll learn:☑️ What glutathione actually is and why your body depends on it☑️ Why oxidative stress accelerates brain aging☑️ How inflammation and free radicals affect mental clarity☑️ Why most oral glutathione supplements don't reach your cells☑️ The connection between ATP, mitochondrial energy, and fatigue☑️ Why travel, stress, and intense training increase antioxidant demand☑️ How supporting glutathione may help restore cellular resilienceIf you feel like your energy crashes too fast, your focus drops under stress, or your recovery isn't what it used to be, this episode may completely reframe how you think about brain optimization.

If your workouts feel harder than they used to… If your recovery takes longer… If your brain feels foggier after a stressful day… You need to hear this. It's not about motivation. It's not about discipline. And it's not because you're "getting older." In this episode, Dr. Mindy breaks down a shift that almost no one explains to women: Estrogen stimulates creatine production. And when estrogen declines in perimenopause and menopause, creatine can decline too. Creatine isn't just a gym supplement. It's critical for cellular energy. It helps recycle ATP, the fuel your muscles and brain run on. When ATP drops, strength, recovery, and mental clarity can shift with it. This conversation will change how you think about midlife performance. In this episode, you'll learn: What creatine actually does inside the female body Why creatine matters more after 40 The connection between estrogen, ATP, and muscle strength How creatine supports brain energy and stress resilience What the research says about safety and dosing Who should consider creatine, and who shouldn't How to support strength long term through physiology, not willpower If you're lifting heavier but building less muscle… If your brain feels slower under pressure… If you've been blaming yourself for feeling "off"… Bookmark this episode. Share it with a friend who's navigating perimenopause or menopause. Because when you understand your biology, you stop fighting your body.

How to turn down the chatter of negative self-talk.If you want to have better conversations with others, Ethan Kross says you first have to quiet down the chatter in your own head.A professor, researcher, and author, Kross defines chatter as a “negative thought loop” that hijacks our attention and undermines our ability to perform. “We have a limited capacity to focus our attention,” he says. “Attentional resources are a limited commodity, and chatter acts like a sponge that consumes that capacity. It leaves very little leftover that allows us to do the things that we want or need to do.” In his work researching, teaching, and writing about emotional regulation and the conscious mind, Kross has explored how to manage the negative self-talk that sabotages our concentration. “Here's the good news,” he says. “You can get out of it. Managing your chatter [is] a lot like becoming physically fit” — and he's developed tools and frameworks for building the muscles to turn down the noise.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Kross joins host Matt Abrahams to share methods for quieting chatter and reclaiming precious mental resources. From distanced self-talk to mental time travel, his tools offer a way to tune out the static and tune into clarity and connection.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Ethan KrossEthan's Books: Chatter / ShiftEp.179 Finding Positive in Negative Emotions: Communication, Happiness & Wellbeing Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:27) - Defining Chatter (04:57) - Breaking the Loop (09:54) - Technology & Emotional Sharing (13:20) - Why “Get Over It” Fails (18:40) - Emotions as Data (21:11) - The Final Three Questions (25:01) - Conclusion   ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.This episode is brought to you by Babbel.

New Book: Lost in Time — Our Forgotten and Vanishing Knowledge | An Interview with Jack R. Bialik | An Analog Brain In A Digital Age With Marco Ciappelli There's a particular arrogance embedded in how we talk about progress. We speak about innovation as if it moves in one direction only — forward, upward, smarter, faster. But what if the line isn't straight? What if it loops, doubles back, and occasionally vanishes entirely? That's the uncomfortable question at the center of my conversation with Jack R. Bialik. His book Lost in Time: Our Forgotten and Vanishing Knowledge doesn't read like a history lesson. It reads like a case file — evidence, example by example, that the civilization we assume is the most advanced in human history is also, in some critical ways, deeply amnesiac. Take cataract surgery. We learned it in the 1700s, right? Except we didn't. Indians were performing it in 800 BC. The ancient Egyptians and Babylonians had diagrams of the procedure dating back to 2,400 BCE. The knowledge existed, worked, and then — somewhere in the chaos of collapsing empires and burning libraries — it vanished. We didn't progress past it. We forgot it, and then reinvented it from scratch, centuries later, convinced we were doing something new. Or the Baghdad Battery: clay pots, 2,000 years old, that when filled with acid can generate 1.1 volts of electricity. We don't know what they used them for. We don't know who figured it out. We just know it worked, it existed, and then it didn't anymore. This is what Bialik calls the pattern of loss — and it's not random. It follows catastrophe: the Library of Alexandria, the systematic destruction of Mayan records, the slow erosion of oral traditions as writing systems took over. Knowledge disappears when the systems that carry it collapse. And here's where the conversation gets uncomfortably relevant: we are building those systems right now, and we are not thinking about how long they'll last. The curator at the Computer History Museum told Bialik that to preserve the data from early IBM PCs and Macintosh computers, they had to print it on paper. The floppy drives had become brittle. The formats were unreadable. The digital archive was failing — and the only solution was to go analog. A vinyl record from the 1920s still plays. A CD from the 1980s may not survive another decade. I've been thinking about this since we recorded. My brain is analog — that's not just a podcast title, it's a philosophy. I grew up in Florence, surrounded by things that had survived centuries because they were made to last: stone, fresco, manuscript. Then I jumped on the digital train like everyone else, seduced by infinite libraries on my phone, music on demand, knowledge at my fingertips. But what Bialik is pointing out is that fingertips are fragile. And so are hard drives. The deeper issue isn't storage format. It's the distinction Bialik draws between knowledge and wisdom. Knowledge is the data — the cataract surgery technique, the battery design, the pyramid engineering. Wisdom is knowing why it matters, when to use it, and what the consequences might be. We've gotten extraordinarily good at accumulating knowledge. We are considerably worse at transmitting wisdom. And wisdom, Bialik argues, doesn't live in databases. It lives in the space between people — in stories, in teaching, in the slow transmission of judgment across generations. That's why oral tradition survived when everything else failed. Not because it was more sophisticated, but because it was more human. It didn't require a device to run on. I don't know how to solve the digital longevity problem. Neither does Bialik — not yet. But I think the first step is admitting we have one. That's actually one of the quietest, most powerful arguments in the book: be humble. We don't know everything. We never did. And some of the things we've lost might be exactly what we need right now. The question isn't just what we've forgotten. It's what we're forgetting today, while we're too busy scrolling to notice. Grab Lost in Time: Our Forgotten and Vanishing Knowledge — link below — and spend some time with a perspective that goes very, very far back. Which is maybe the only way to see very, very far forward.   And if this kind of conversation is what you come here for, subscribe to the newsletter at marcociappelli.com.  More of this.

On the podcast Resilience Unravelled, Russell speaks with Susan Inouye in Los Angeles about resilience themes in homes, products, and organisational culture, including companies that post values but don't live them. They discuss generational differences at work, with Susan describing shifts from command-and-control leadership toward belonging, meaning, and authenticity, and noting that millennials are now a large portion of the workforce. Susan also shares that millennials are complaining about Gen Z, arguing it's often about age and development, and references brain development and the influence of how generations were raised. She emphasises that leadership change requires embodied practices, not just advice, explaining that transformation happens through the body and somatic intelligence, with HeartMath Institute research as an example. Susan tells a client story about an event-production leader whose gift for planning became controlling behaviour; using the Sawubona (“I see you”) gift-centered approach, rituals for letting go, and trapeze lessons, the client replaced fear with freedom and became more trusting at work. Susan's book, "Leadership's Perfect Storm: What Millennials Are Teaching Us About Possibility, Passion, and Purpose," is aimed at leaders, includes stories and a coach's corner with practices, is used in over 30 countries, is available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble, and donates all proceeds to the nonprofit Youth Mentoring Connection. She notes Sawubona Leadership originated in South Central Los Angeles through Tony LeRae's mentoring work.00:00 Welcome 01:05 Resilience, building standards & planned obsolescence03:00 Corporate values vs reality: authenticity and truth-telling at work04:47 Millennials & Gen Z reshape leadership expectations06:28 Are generational stereotypes real?

How can you go from crying to fine in ten minutes? Why does it feel like the first feeling never even happened once it's gone? In episode #72 Why Do My Feelings Change So Fast With ADHD & AuDHD? I go over how fast feelings shift in ADHD and AuDHD through Emotional Self-Monitoring (Thomas E. Brown's executive function model) and Impaired Hindsight (Russell Barkley). I get into how ADHD affects tracking feelings over time, how attention changes what feels most true in the moment, and why it can be hard to recall how intense a feeling was once it passes. You'll hear language for describing fast switching in relationships and daily life, plus a clear way to explain to others: "That felt true earlier, and this feels true now."

Sound is one of the fastest, most powerful systems in the human brain. It can soothe, destabilise, regulate, overwhelm - and, when used intentionally, it can become a profound tool for nervous system support.In this episode of Mindful Mondays, Ashley explores the neuroscience and lived experience of sound for neurodivergent minds. From music and rhythm as ancient emotional language, to binaural beats and brainwave states, humming and vagus nerve activation, ASMR, pink noise, and the surprising science behind tinnitus and musical ear syndrome.We also talk honestly about misophonia, loud noise sensitivity, and the cocktail party effect - and why regulation, not exposure, is the key.The episode closes with a guided theta journey using Alexander Voloshin of Healing Meditation Music's theta binaural beats - an immersive sound experience designed to gently support deep rest, insight, and recalibration.If sound has ever felt like too much - or not enough - this episode will help you understand why, and how to work with it.Headphones recommended.Our Sponsors:

Good morning, good morning!  Welcome back to The Monday Morning Brew Series, where we sip something warm, shake off the weekend fog, and set the tone for a week that feels good in your body and your brain. I'm Luis, and today we're talking about something that might surprise you…Movement, but not the “exercise” kind.Not the gym membership.Not the perfect routine.Not the “I'll start Monday” pressure.I'm talking about fun movement.The kind you don't track.The kind you don't judge.The kind you don't overthink.And here's the twist, that kind of movement is incredible for your cognitive health.So grab your coffee, settle in, and let's brew something good together.SEGMENT 1: WHY “EXERCISE” FEELS HEAVYLet's be honest, the word “exercise” carries a lot of baggage.For many people, it brings up:• Pressure• Comparison• Sometimes that Old gym‑class trauma• The feeling of “I'm not doing enough”• Or just… boredomBut movement?Movement is different. Movement is human. Movement is natural. Movement is joyful.When we take away the rules, the reps, the calorie counting, and the pressure, movement becomes something we want to do, not something we feel guilty about avoiding and here's the cool part:Your brain doesn't care whether you're doing a structured workout or dancing in your kitchen. It just loves that you're moving.SEGMENT 2: HOW FUN MOVEMENT BOOSTS YOUR BRAINLet's talk cognitive health but in a simple, real‑life way.When you move your body, even lightly, your brain gets:• Increased blood flow• More oxygen• A boost in neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin• Better communication between brain regions• Improved memory and focusAnd here's the kicker, fun movement actually lights up more areas of the brain than forced exercise.Why you ask? Because when you're enjoying yourself, your brain releases reward chemicals that make learning, creativity, and problem‑solving easier. So yes, dancing while you make breakfast That's brain health. Walking your dog while listening to music? Brain health. Cleaning your house with a little extra groove? YOUUU GUESSED IT! Brain health. Your brain doesn't need a treadmill.It just needs you to move.SEGMENT 3: WHAT COUNTS AS “FUN MOVEMENT”?Let's break this down, because fun movement is way more accessible than people think.Here are some examples:• Dancing in your living room• Walking with a friend• Playing with your kids or pets• Stretching while watching TV• Gardening• Roller skating / Bike riding• Swimming• Doing a silly TikTok dance• Cleaning with music• Chair dancing at your desk• A mini dance break between tasksIf it gets your body moving and your mood lifted, it counts, and the best part? You don't need to be good at it. You don't need to look a certain way doing it. You don't need to track it or measure it. Just move because it feels good.SEGMENT 4: THE MINDSET SHIFTHere's the mindset shift I want you to take into this week: “Movement is a gift, not a punishment.”You're not moving to earn food. You're not moving to fix your body. You're not moving to meet someone else's standard. You're moving because:• It boosts your mood• It clears your mind• It reduces stress• It helps you think better• It makes you feel aliveWhen you remove the pressure, movement becomes something you look forward to not something you avoid.SEGMENT 5: A 60‑SECOND GUIDED MOMENTLet's take a quick moment together. Wherever you are... sitting, standing, sipping your coffee... I want you to roll your shoulders back. Take a breath. Wiggle your fingers. Wiggle your toes. Maybe sway a little side to side. That's movement. That's presence. That's you reconnecting with your body. And your brain loves it.SEGMENT 6: THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE: “Move for Joy” Alright, here's your Monday Morning Brew challenge for the week.THE CHALLENGE: “Move for Joy"Every day this week, I want you to do 5 minutes of fun movement.Not exercise. Not a workout. Just movement that feels good.Here are some ideas:• Dance to one song• Walk around the block• Stretch in bed• Do a silly wiggle break• Play with your pet• March in place while your coffee brewsFive minutes. No rules. No pressure. Just joy. And if you want to level up, share your favorite fun movement moment with someone. Spread the energy.As you head into your Monday, remember this... Movement doesn't have to be serious to be meaningful. It doesn't have to be structured to be beneficial. It doesn't have to be perfect to count.Your brain loves when you move. Your mood loves when you move. Your future self loves when you move. So this week, move because it feels good. Move because it brings you joy. Move because it helps you think clearer, breathe deeper, and show up as the best version of yourself.This is Luis, and you've been listening to The Monday Morning Brew. Go make today a good one and don't forget to dance a little.If this episode helped you, share it with someone who's working on their health and may feel a bit overwhelmed on where to start.  As always, be a kind human, let's continue to help, to lift each-other up whenever possible... and when it seems really tough, look for the helpers, and do your part as well, make sure that when someone looks for the Helpers, they see YOU, that way You can contribute as well and be the change you want to see in the world...thank you, thank you for sharing this time to listen to us and we will see you again soon, have a great rest of your day!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/fittalk-with-coach-luis--3261827/support.TEAM LTP:My IG: @livetoprogressVoice-over credits

Dementia is one of the greatest fears associated with aging—but what if it didn't have to mean loss, disappearance, or despair? In this deeply moving episode, author and arts innovator Marilyn Raichle shares how walking toward her mother, rather than away, transformed dementia into a journey of presence, creativity, connection, and joy. This conversation offers a profoundly human reframe of memory loss and aging. For many people, dementia is equated with the loss of self, meaning, and value. Families are often advised—explicitly or implicitly—to disengage emotionally, preparing for inevitable decline and disappearance. But how we approach dementia shapes not only quality of life for those living with it, but also the emotional, psychological, and biological stress experienced by care partners. Chronic fear, grief, and disengagement accelerate aging for everyone involved, while presence, joy, and connection support resilience and healthspan.  Author of  Don't Walk Away, A Care Partner's Journey, Marilyn Raichle brings a rare perspective shaped by a lifetime in the performing arts and nine years as a care partner to her mother, Jean. Through art, shared joy, and daily presence, Marilyn discovered that her mother was not "gone," but distilled to her essential humanity—creative, competitive, loving, and alive. Listeners will learn how creativity opens pathways to connection, why joy is possible even in advanced dementia, and how reframing the experience from caregiving to partnership transforms both lives.  Episode Timelines: 00:00 — Dementia and our deepest fears about aging  03:45 — Marilyn's background in the performing arts  07:30 — Becoming a reluctant care partner  10:45 — Discovering creativity through painting  14:30 — The Art of Alzheimer's is born  18:40 — Enduring personhood explained  22:55 — Sharing joy as a daily practice  27:30 — A single mindset shift for care partners  31:00 — Final reflections on love, presence, and meaning  Connect with Marilyn Raichle dontwalkaway.net/ https://www.facebook.com/marilyn.raichle     https://www.linkedin.com/in/marilynraichle/   instagram.com/raichlem/  Connect with Dr. Gillian Lockitch Download your Guide to Nature's Colouful Antioxidants for Eye, Heart, Brain and Skin Wellness  and  Download your Checklist to Mind and Memory Boosting Strategies  Connect with Dr. Gillian Lockitch at askdrgill@gmail.com  to request a phone conversation or zoom call   Join the Growing Older Living Younger Facebook Community here   Share the Growing Older Living Younger podcast link for anyone you care about and invite them to subscribe

Dr. Bobby Price has recently blown up on social media because of his health advice. He wrote the best selling book “Vegucation over medication.” In that book, he teaches people how to heal themselves with plant-based foods, herbal medicine, and holistic techniques. Dr. Bobby started his career as a traditional doctor. But after talking to a sick patient, he realized modern medicine wasn't designed to heal people. So he left the system in search of the truth. In this conversation, he shares his blueprint for healing & living a longer, healthier life. Try Vanta today: https://Vanta.com/calum Follow Us!

Most people try to fix brain fog and focus issues with caffeine or nootropics, but those approaches only mask the problem.This video explains that brain fog begins when the brain's energy system—its mitochondria—starts to fail, long before any obvious signs of aging appear.Modern stress, poor sleep, artificial light, toxins, and blood sugar swings quietly drain this energy and reduce the brain's ability to repair itself.It then explains how methylene blue, a well-studied compound with a long medical history, works inside brain cells to improve energy production, protect neurons, and support lasting clarity when used correctly and safely.Thank you to our sponsors!

Rob Reiner wasn't naive. He directed films for forty years. He understood how stories telegraph their endings. And he told friends at a Christmas party he was petrified of his own son. He saw it. He just couldn't act on it — because acting meant releasing the last hope holding his world together. That's not stupidity. That's how the brain survives unbearable truth. The Reiners spent seventeen years watching Nick vanish — the person he was before the drugs replaced by someone they couldn't reach and eventually feared. Psychologists call it ambiguous loss. No funeral. No closure. No permission to grieve. Just an infinite middle suspended between hope and despair. They built survival frameworks. Trusted professionals. Then rejected the professionals. Made a recovery movie together in 2015. Nick later admitted he wasn't sober during any of it. Every redemption was a performance. Every relapse reopened a wound the Reiners thought had finally closed. The lies followed patterns millions of families recognize. "This time is different." "Nobody understands them like I do." "If I stop, I'm the one who failed." These aren't delusions — they're the only stories your mind can construct when reality becomes unsurvivable. And through all of it, you're expected to answer "How's your son?" with something that sounds like hope. This episode is about the grief nobody validates and the denial nobody should be ashamed of. If you've ever mourned someone who's still alive — if you've ever known the truth and stayed anyway because the alternative was worse — this is for you. That grief is real. Those lies were survival. Forgive them.

Tomás Bogardus joins to discuss his book "The Nature of the Sexes" and argues for a reproductive-functional account of biological sex. According to Bogardus, males and females are defined by the reproductive function their bodies are structured to perform: producing sperm or eggs. Even when that function is not realized and no sperm or eggs are produced, a person's sex remains the same, because it is grounded in biological organization. To defend this view, Bogardus considers intersex and DSD cases, critiques contextualist accounts that treat sex as domain-dependent, and argues for a unified meaning of “male” and “female.” The conversation later turns to whether sex is essential or changeable, as well as debates about pronouns, sports, and medical interventions for minors.[00:00] Introduction to the Debate on Sex[00:23] The Delivery Room Thought Experiment: "It's a Boy/Girl"[02:04] Sex as Reproductive Function[07:41 ]Gametes, Competitor Theories, and the Non-Producers Objection[11:29] Intersex & DSD Cases[19:23] Contextualism and Cluster Concepts: Sex in Sports, Bathrooms, Dating?[26:23] Conjunction Reduction & Animal Examples: Rooster vs Crocodile[30:24] One Unified Meaning of Sex Terms[32:06] Are ‘Man' and ‘Woman' Social Roles or Biological Sexes?[37:15] Is Sex Essential or Contingent?

Productivity advice rarely works for ADHD brains, not because you're lazy or undisciplined, but because most systems are built for neurotypical consistency. In this episode of Adulting with ADHD, Sarah talks with Robert Simms, founder of Embodied Resilience Wellness Clinic, registered social worker, Indigenous practitioner, and neurodivergent adult, about designing home and money systems that actually work with your brain, not against it. Robert shares how discovering his own neurodivergence later in life reshaped how he approaches routines, finances, and daily structure. Instead of relying on motivation, discipline, or "just try harder," he explains how neuro affirming systems focus on variability, interest, energy fluctuations, and external supports. They explore why traditional productivity advice often fails ADHD adults, and how small environmental tweaks, not willpower, create sustainable change. In this episode, we talk about: What "neuro affirming" actually means in daily life Why consistency doesn't work the way we think it should Externalizing executive function with reminders, automation, and visual cues Removing shame and guilt from missed tasks and imperfect follow through Designing systems around strengths like hyperfocus and pattern recognition Why "inconsistently consistent" is a realistic goal Robert also shares practical home and money hacks, including: Set it and forget it bill automation when financially safe to do so Simplifying bank accounts and credit cards to reduce overwhelm Creating small financial buffers for predictable emergencies Using visible, contained systems for everyday items like keys, wallets, and kids' clutter The five minute rule for task initiation Rotating routines instead of abandoning them when interest drops One of the most powerful reframes in this conversation: your home should function like an accommodation. If the outside world isn't built for your brain, your personal systems can be. Neuro affirming systems are not about doing more. They are about building support structures that match how your brain actually works, with flexibility, compassion, and less shame.

This episode covers: • Microplastics Are Destroying Male Fertility and Metabolism New research is putting microplastics in a category most men still are not taking seriously: direct reproductive and hormone risk. A 2024 study detected microplastics in every human testicle examined, with polyethylene and PVC among the most common polymers. PVC is especially relevant because it's often tied to chemical additives that can disrupt endocrine signaling. The broader body of evidence points to micro- and nanoplastics crossing barriers like the blood–testis barrier, driving inflammation and oxidative stress in the testes, and showing associations with impaired sperm quality and hormone disruption. The longevity move here is reducing overall load: better water filtration, less plastic food contact, no heating food in plastic, fewer packaged foods, and taking indoor dust and air quality seriously, especially for men thinking about fertility now or hormone resilience over decades. • Sources: – Study (PubMed): https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38745431/ – Coverage: https://people.com/microplastics-in-every-human-testicle-infertility-8651215 • Fear of Aging Is Linked to Faster Biological Aging A new study ties aging anxiety to measurable acceleration in biological aging using DNA methylation clocks. People who reported more worry and negative beliefs about aging showed faster epigenetic aging signals, and the molecular differences clustered around stress and inflammatory pathways. In plain terms, chronic threat-mode thinking around aging maps onto biology that looks older on the clocks. For a longevity audience, this is a practical reminder that mental inputs affect physiological outputs. If your day-to-day mindset is constant pressure and decline narratives, that can show up downstream in stress biology and inflammatory tone. A smarter play is building a longevity framework around function, strength, purpose, and community, alongside the usual pillars like sleep, training, and metabolic health. • Source: https://medicalxpress.com/news/2026-02-older-links-health-faster-epigenetic.html • Additional source: https://www.nyu.edu/about/news-publications/news/2026/february/aging-anxiety.html • Retatrutide, the Triple-Agonist Weight-Loss Drug Pushing Bariatric-Level Results Retatrutide is a triple agonist that targets GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors, and the weight-loss numbers being reported are massive. In a 68-week study in people with obesity and knee osteoarthritis, the highest dose group averaged about 28.7% body-weight loss, along with meaningful improvements in knee pain and function. This is the next phase of incretin medicine: multi-agonist drugs that can move body weight by a quarter or more. For biohackers, the performance and longevity angle is implementation: preserving lean mass through resistance training, hitting protein targets, monitoring micronutrients, and building a maintenance plan that doesn't collapse the moment the drug stops. The upside is cardiometabolic risk reduction at scale. The key is running it with structure. • Sources: – Eli Lilly release: https://investor.lilly.com/news-releases/news-release-details/lillys-triple-agonist-retatrutide-delivered-weight-loss-average – Coverage: https://nypost.com/2026/02/18/health/people-dropped-out-of-retatrutide-trial-for-losing-too-much-weight/ – Background: https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2026/02/whats-next-for-glp-1s/ • AI Can Predict 130 Diseases From a Single Night of Sleep Stanford's SleepFM project shows how much long-horizon health information is encoded in sleep. Researchers trained a foundation model on roughly 585,000 hours of clinical polysomnography data from about 65,000 people. From a single night of sleep study signals, the model could estimate risk for 130 conditions, including dementia, heart attack, heart failure, chronic kidney disease, stroke, atrial fibrillation, and all-cause mortality, and it generalized across cohorts better than simple demographic baselines. The big implication is that sleep architecture and micro-patterns (stage distribution, fragmentation, breathing stability, micro-arousals) function like a dense biomarker stream for systemic aging and disease risk. Expect better sensors and more validated risk dashboards over time. Right now, this is another reason to treat sleep as a core diagnostic pillar, not just a recovery habit. • Sources: – Stanford Medicine: https://med.stanford.edu/news/all-news/2026/01/ai-sleep-disease.html – Paper (Nature Medicine): https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-025-04133-4 • Living at High Altitude May Protect Against Diabetes by Turning Red Blood Cells Into Glucose Sinks For years, population data has suggested lower diabetes rates at higher elevations. New mechanistic work is pointing to a surprising driver: red blood cells changing how they handle glucose under low oxygen conditions. In hypoxia, red blood cells can behave like glucose sinks, pulling more sugar out of circulation and improving glucose tolerance, which may help explain the protective association seen at altitude. The downstream potential is a new class of altitude-mimetic approaches that target erythrocyte metabolism as a glucose lever, separate from appetite suppression or classic diabetes pathways. For biohackers, it expands the metabolic toolkit and reinforces that oxygen environment and blood physiology matter more than we've given them credit for. • Source: https://medicalxpress.com/news/2026-02-red-blood-cells-sugar-high.html • Dietary Supplement Regulatory Uniformity Act and the Future of Supplement Access A proposed bill is aiming to stop states from layering extra rules on dietary supplements beyond federal law, creating one national standard instead of a patchwork of state-by-state restrictions. Industry groups are supporting it as a way to reduce confusion and compliance chaos, especially as some states explore age limits or special labeling requirements for certain supplement categories. The strategic implication for biohackers is that regulation shapes access. Uniformity can stabilize availability, but it also raises the stakes of federal decisions on controversial ingredients. This is one of those policy stories that quietly determines what stays on shelves, what disappears, and how much innovation survives in the supplement space. • Sources: – NutritionInsight: https://www.nutritioninsight.com/news/npa-crn-supplements-us-fda-legislation.html – Congressional release: https://langworthy.house.gov/media/press-releases/congressman-langworthy-introduces-dietary-supplement-regulatory-uniformity-act – NutraIngredients: https://www.nutraingredients.com/Article/2026/02/05/new-bill-aims-to-end-state-supplement-regulations/ All source links are provided for direct access to the original reporting and research.

Long-term, low-dose aspartame intake caused measurable changes in heart structure and brain energy use in mice, even at amounts far below current safety limits Weight and body fat dropped with aspartame use, but this came alongside reduced metabolic function and signs of cardiac strain rather than improved health Brain cells showed worsening access to fuel over time, which aligned with slower movement, poorer memory, and reduced task performance Harmful effects developed gradually and only appeared after many months, explaining why short-term studies often miss these risks Avoiding artificial sweeteners and restoring real carbohydrate fuel helps reduce metabolic stress and protect long-term heart and brain function

Jim Kwik, brain performance expert and author of Limitless, reveals how a childhood brain injury transformed him from the kid with the broken brain into one of the world leading authorities on accelerated learning and memory. Drawing from his immigrant parents sacrifices and his own journey through learning disabilities, Jim breaks down the three forces that limit us mindset, motivation, and methods. He explains why risk-taking capacity gets drilled out of us with age, how reframing victimhood into gifts unlocked his superpower, and why comparison through social media creates digital depression. This conversation explores neuroplasticity, energy management, and how to align daily actions with core values to escape the box of limiting beliefs. Hosted on Acast.

Starting this month, ID The Future listeners will get to enjoy a new episode each month (as well as a bingecast archive episode) from our sister podcast Mind Matters News, a production of the Discovery Institute's Walter Bradley Center for Natural and Artificial Intelligence. The Mind Matters News podcast brings you interviews and insight from computer scientists, engineers, inventors, neurosurgeons, and other experts who bring sanity to the conversation about natural and artificial intelligence, going beyond the hype to explore the undercurrents of these important ideas. And although the Mind Matters News podcast will not often explicitly discuss intelligent design, it regularly explores the nature of intelligence, the origin of information, and the things that make us uniquely human, concepts that are central to the theory of intelligent design. On this archive "bingecast" episode, hosts Robert J. Marks and Angus Menuge welcome Dr. Mihretu Guta to discuss his contribution to the book Minding the Brain. Dr. Guta discusses the nature of consciousness and the challenges in understanding it from a philosophical perspective. He argues that consciousness is a unique property that is deeply subjective and personal, making it difficult to study scientifically. Guta contrasts first-order and second-order approaches to understanding consciousness, emphasizing the need to go beyond just the empirical observation of mental phenomena and examine the underlying metaphysical and ontological questions. The discussion covers a number of relevant topics, highlighting the profound and puzzling nature of consciousness and the importance of philosophical inquiry in grappling with this fundamental aspect of human experience.

Meet a man who makes miracles happen. Today, we revist my conversation with Hal Elrod, author of the international bestseller The Miracle Morning and his newest book, The Miracle Equation.
