This is what it looks like to create a new category from scratch and refuse to stop.Jon Bier sits down with Michael Brandt — Stanford CS grad, 2:35 marathoner, and co-founder and CEO of Ketone-IQ — for one of the most genuinely nerdy, genuinely exciting conversations about building a brand that didn't exist before. Jon helped launch Ketone-IQ early on and didn't invest. He'll tell you that himself. This is the conversation where he probably fully processes that decision.Ketones aren't a trend. They're a nutritional primitive — a new macronutrient. The kind of thing you can't speed-run. And Michael Brandt is the rare founder who built his entire business philosophy around that truth.The category is coming. They just got here first.In this episode:• Why creating a new category is a decade-long bet — and why that's exactly the right bet if you want to build something fundamental instead of fast• How Ketone-IQ went from a $6M DoD contract and $30-a-shot margins to nationwide grocery stores and a near-half-billion-dollar valuation• What Jon and Michael actually talk about when they talk about celebrity deals, brand equity, and why the brands nobody can name are the real cautionary taleFind Michael & Ketone-IQ:• Michael on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/michaeldbrandt/• Ketone-IQ: https://ketone.com• Ketone-IQ on IG:https://www.instagram.com/ketone/Timestamps:0:00 - Building a New Category From Scratch: Why It's Harder (and Bigger) Than Anything Else1:18 - How Ketone IQ Started: Oxford, the Military, and $30-a-Shot Pro Athletes4:01 - What Ketones Actually Do and Why Michael Got Obsessed7:08 - The DoD Relationship: Research, Procurement, and On-Base Retail8:02 - The Early Positioning Problem: Ketones ≠ the Keto Diet10:22 - Why Sampling Is Everything for a Product You Actually Feel13:36 - Jon Bier's Regret: Why He Didn't Invest (And Why the Odds Were Against It)15:18 - How Marathon Running Gave Michael the Belief to Do the Impossible21:25 - The First Sign of Real Momentum: People Who Tried It Couldn't Stop23:17 - "We're Not Selling Ketones — We're Selling a Feeling"25:03 - Grün, Element, and How to Win Without a Product People Can Feel29:27 - Trend Proof vs. Trend Dependent: Why Ketones Are a Nutritional Primitive32:43 - How Jon Bier Spots Winners (And Why Most Brands Fail Because They're Too Early)35:26 - How to Cannibalize Yourself Before a Competitor Does39:10 - The Jake Paul and Jeff Wu Connection (and the Antifund Story)41:43 - What the Rogan Partnership Actually Means for a Brand45:40 - Why DTC Alone Is Dead and Retail Is the Startup Within the Startup49:08 - Why the Brands That Won DTC Stopped Innovating53:26 - How Celebrity Ambassadors Unlock Retail Doors56:03 - What Retailers Actually Want to Hear (It's Not About the Product)1:00:07 - Why Big Companies Destroy the Brands They Buy1:02:50 - Where Ketone IQ Is Now and What the Exit Math Looks Like1:05:10 - What Michael Would Actually Do With the Money

What really happens to our bodies after 40? In my latest conversation on the Over 40 Fitness Hacks podcast with Brad Williams, I share why so many people notice changes in their energy, metabolism, body composition, skin quality, and overall vitality as they age. I discuss what I call "the pause" — the hormonal and metabolic shifts that affect both men and women and why the strategies that worked in our 20s and 30s often stop delivering the same results later in life. We explore the powerful connection between skin health and overall wellness, including the roles of hormones, gut health, sleep, recovery, and brain function. I also explain why the skin is often one of the first places we see signs of internal imbalance and how medical-grade skincare, peptide therapies, hormone optimization, infusions, and lifestyle interventions can support both healthspan and longevity. Brad and I also talk about the rise of AI in healthcare, common biohacking mistakes, and why personalized medical guidance matters more than ever. We cover topics such as sleep quality, alcohol consumption, metabolic health, insulin resistance, NAD therapies, and the importance of recognizing early warning signs before chronic disease develops. My goal has always been prevention first — helping people stay healthy, strong, and resilient rather than waiting until problems become difficult to reverse. If you're over 40 and wondering why your body feels different than it used to, this episode offers practical insights and actionable strategies to help you age with confidence and vitality.

Learn about the Healing Power of Prolonged Fasting: HEREWhat if the next step after cancer surgery wasn't more treatment, but something different entirely?Dr. Katie Deming welcomes Merlin Hagan. After his prostate was removed, Merlin's doctors checked his PSA, a blood marker used to monitor prostate cancer activity. It should have dropped to undetectable levels.But it didn't. His PSA kept climbing, and doctors recommended radiation and hormone therapy next. Merlin wasn't ready for that, so he went looking for another option.PSA Prostate-Specific Antigen, a protein made by the prostate. Rising PSA levels may signal changes in the prostate, including inflammation, enlargement, or possible prostate cancer activity.He had never fasted before in his life, yet he committed to a 21-day water fast under medical supervision. What happened next surprised not just him, but his doctors too.Chapters:00:06:02 - PSA Still Rising00:06:47 - Finding the Fast00:08:01 - The Hardest Part of Fasting00:09:05 - Dealing with Food Cravings  00:11:00 - The Diet Shift Before Fasting00:13:26 - Relearning How to Eat00:16:41 - Eight Weeks After the Fast00:17:33 - The Unexpected Weight Loss00:18:26 - Blood Pressure Changes00:19:41 - Prostate Surgery Complication00:20:38 - The First Sign of Healing00:22:21 - The PSA Results00:24:54 - Hormone Therapy DecisionMerlin walks through the entire experience: the prep week, the difficult first few days, and the mental shift that carried him through the fast.

Accio legal system? This week, Emily and V look into the super-bummer that was a harbinger of even worse super-bummers to come: the time JK Rowling sued her biggest fan for basically knowing more about Harry Potter than she did. And everyone in the whole world sided with her, because it was 2008 and the deification of that woman was REAL. Fortunately, it's 2026, the scales have fallen from our eyes, we've already covered Lindaaaaa for precedence, and we can have a real discussion about what the ruling meant for fandom, fanworks, and poor Steven Vander Ark.  Sources Fanlore Promo Check out our new pod-friends STAN!

John 2:1-12

BIBLE STUDY

Today we are going to look into the book of John and see what is called the first sign. John's gospel account is laid out in a really cool structure. It is the first of Seven Signs that point to Jesus being the Son of God. Turning water into wine, Healing the official's son, healing the paralytic, feeding the 5,000, walking on water, healing the blind man, raising Lazarus. 31 But these are written that you may believe[b] that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name. John 20:31Here's what I want you to hold onto today:The water into wine is the sign.A sign. Not because it was less than miraculous. It absolutely was miraculous. But John wants you to know: don't stop at the sign. Follow the sign. Let it point you somewhere.But the sign is pointing you toward three things:Who Jesus is. Why Jesus came. What Jesus offers.On the third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. Jesus' mother was there, 2 and Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding. 3 When the wine was gone, Jesus' mother said to him, “They have no more wine.”4 “Woman,[a] why do you involve me?” Jesus replied. “My hour has not yet come.”5 His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.” John 2:1-5A sign always points to the greater thing.WHO HE WAS v. 1-5, 11"The sign reveals Jesus' identity."John 2:1-5Wedding feast. Wine runs out. Cultural shame for the family. Mary brings it to Jesus.Notice Jesus' response in v.4: "Woman, what does this have to do with me? My hour has not yet come."This sounds cold to modern ears. But "Woman" is a term of respect in that culture—He uses it again at the cross when He entrusts Mary to John (John 19:26).John 2:11APPLICATION:Most of us want Jesus to be a problem-solver, not a Lord.Mary comes to Him with a practical problem: no wine.Jesus responds as Lord: My hour has not yet come.He solves the problem—but He does it on His terms, in His timing, for His purposes.The sign points to this: He's not a genie. He's a King.2. WHY JESUS CAME v. 6-10"The sign reveals Jesus' mission"John 2:6-10Before Passover, before Sabbath, before meals—you wash. It's the system. The ritual. The religion. And it was never enough.You washed your hands and went right back to being the same person.Jesus doesn't add more water to the jars. He transforms them.This is the picture of the gospel:He doesn't just improve the old system. He replaces it with something entirely new.He doesn't make you a better version of who you were. He makes you new.THIS IS A SIGN POINTING TO SOMETHING GREATER:In the Old Testament, the prophet Isaiah is describing the Messianic Banquet—the end-of-all-things feast when God finally restores everything.Isaiah 25:6-8Isaiah is describing the Messianic Banquet—the end-of-all-things feast when God finally restores everything.Aged wine. The finest. Death swallowed up. Tears wiped away.And Jesus shows up at a wedding in Cana and quietly produces 120-180 gallons of the best wine anyone has ever tasted.He's not just filling jars. He's announcing: I am the fulfillment of Isaiah 25. The banquet has begun. The Messiah is here.Why He came: Not to patch up the old. To inaugurate the new. To launch the feast that never ends.3. WHAT HE OFFERS v10"The sign reveals what's available to us""What he is saying is, 'I come as Lord of the feast. Yes, I come to do self-denial. I come to suffer, and I come to be humbled. If you follow me, you will too. There will be plenty of self-denial and suffering and humbling too, but these are just means to an end. Here's the end. As Master of the banquet, as Lord of the feast, I am come.'" — Timothy Keller

Join Pastor Derek as he delves into the story of Jesus' first miracle: turning water into wine at the wedding in Cana. This video explores the significance of this event as a sign of Jesus' divine power and its meaning for believers. Discover how this miracle symbolises transformation and the abundant life offered through faith in Christ. Pastor Walker explains the spiritual message behind the miracle, encouraging viewers to invite Jesus into their lives for a personal transformation. The first sign-miracle of Jesus in John 2 was turning water into wine, which was a demonstration of what He will do for us if we believe in Him. This is a picture of our New Birth and our ongoing transformation by the Spirit of God. The way this miracle happened shows that we must give Jesus the right to turn our water into wine, by submitting to His Lordship.

John 2:1-11

John's Gospel shows us that the signs were never meant to be admired as ends in themselves, but to reveal Jesus as the Christ. The water into wine was more than solving a shortage—it pointed to the abundance of grace found in Him, replacing the emptiness of religion with the joy of new life. When we believe in Him, the sign leads us to the celebration itself—eternal life in His name.

CJ is joined by Michaela Lehr, a seasoned FP&A leader and former CFO of ActionIQ, who breaks down how CFOs can pull levers like growth, retention, margin, and cash runway to maximize value without blowing something up. Michaela explains how not all growth is created equal and why how you grow matters as much as how much you grow. She talks about gross margin as the most sensitive area of the P&L and how to communicate with engineers about their impacts on it. The conversation also covers the rise of “experimental recurring revenue” in AI-first products, why investors are obsessed with net dollar retention, the risks of over-servicing customers, looking out for your own finance team, and what it means to budget in the real world when everything changes after board approval.—LINKS:Michaela Lehr on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaela-lehr-2908996/ActionIQ: https://www.uniphore.com/actioniqCJ on X (@cjgustafson222): https://x.com/cjgustafson222Mostly metrics: Loveable: https://lovable.devCanva: https://www.canva.comConcourse: https://www.concourse.co—TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) Preview and Intro(02:20) Sponsor – Rillet | Pulley | Brex(07:33) What It Means To Run a Company Like a Utility Function(10:45) An Example of Optimising for This Utility Function Regarding AI Spend(15:36) Sponsor – Aleph | RightRev | Navan(19:35) Less Visible but High-Impact Levers That Drive Revenue(22:15) Gating Headcount Based on Performance Milestones(25:09) Cloud Costs as a Hidden Lever(27:30) Why How You Grow Matters As Much as How Much You Grow(30:08) Professional Services as a Necessary Investment(32:43) What ERR (Experimental Recurring Revenue) Is(36:39) Margin As the Most Sensitive Area of the P&L(38:13) Communicating With Engineers About Gross Margin(41:56) Why Investors Care So Much About Net Dollar Attention(43:53) Making Sure Your Upsells Don't Mask a Churn Problem(44:40) What Over-Servicing Your Customer Looks Like(46:58) Why the “Just Give Me My Budget” Mindset Doesn't Work(49:23) Brokering the Budget With Execs in Real Time(51:38) Looking Out for Your Own Team as a CFO(56:26) The First Sign of an Erosion of Trust(59:50) Finance's Role in Upholding Capital-T Truth(1:01:31) Long-Ass Lightning Round: A COVID-Era Multitasking Mistake(1:02:06 ) Advice to Younger Self(1:04:07) Michaela's Favorite Finance Tool(1:04:17) Craziest Expense Story—SPONSORS:Rillet is the AI-native ERP modern finance teams are switching to because it's faster, simpler, and 100% built for how teams operate today.
