Summary The conversation discusses the use of performance marketing on Instagram to drive profile visits and conversions. The key strategy is to optimize the Instagram profile by having three pinned posts: an 'about you' video, a video explaining why you do what you do, and a video showcasing your talent. The goal is to provide value to potential followers and convert them into long-term fans. It is recommended to focus on one platform, such as Instagram, for better conversion rates. The importance of social proof and leveraging others to talk about you is also emphasized. The conversation touched on several valuable points for artists looking to break into the music industry. It emphasized the importance of understanding the cost basis of music production and the need for an initial budget for marketing. The use of POV campaigns, where other pages post an artist's music with compelling hooks, was highlighted as an effective marketing strategy. The conversation also emphasized the need for artists to think of themselves as businesses and create value for their fans. It concluded with the advice to be patient, persevere, and never quit.

If we actually succeed in bringing millions of people to web3 in this bull market, could we sustain them, or would we fall apart? We're no strangers to conversations about scalability and interoperability - growing crypto in a way that lets the fractured L1s and L2s communicate. But these guys have a totally different solution than the ones we've heard on 100x so far. Imagine a web above all your favorite L1s, connecting them seamlessly, as if they were one. No need to imagine if Coinweb conquers their vision. Listen now!

Back when I was running my solo physical therapy practice, ProActive Health, my mission and ultimate goal was to advocate for individuals to be, well, proactive in their approach to health versus reactive. Of course, it is much easier — both time- and energy-wise, as well as financially —  to prevent injuries and illnesses from occurring compared to falling prey to and enduring a long, drawn out course of treatment that can sometimes be, if bad enough, in perpetuity. In my mind, preventative medicine is undoubtedly the future of healthcare for a multitude of reasons and today's guest, Dr. Ron Primas, has been pioneering this model for decades  — putting him well ahead of the curve, especially under the allopathic paradigm. Dr. Primas is a board-certified physician with over 30 years of experience in assisting New York City residents and travelers with their health needs. Educated via the traditional allopathic medical system, he has broken out of that archetype to become the proverbial biohacker before biohacking was formalized and has a long-standing passion for longevity well before that was trendy. As a longevity expert, Dr. Primas helps his patients to maximize their biological age with regenerative medicine and a longevity routine that supports their unique personalized health history and goals. In today's conversation, we cover a smorgasbord of topics ranging from chronic pain management to holistic weight management to, of course, biohacking and longevity to red light therapy to diet, supplements and more! Dr. Primas is an absolute wealth of knowledge and not just because he is one smart cookie, but, more importantly, he can speak from decades and decades of personal and professional experience. You can never garner wisdom without real-life experience and Dr. Primas has that in spades.   As always, learn lots and light up your health! - Key points: Guest Introduction (00:00:00 - 00:00:22): Guest: Dr. Ron Primas, board-certified physician with 30+ years of experience and a fellow biohacker.

"There have been literally thousands of years of breeding and living with animals to optimise these kinds of problems. But because we're just so early on with alternative proteins and there's so much white space, it's actually just really exciting to know that we can keep on innovating and being far more efficient than this existing technology — which, fundamentally, is just quite inefficient. You're feeding animals a bunch of food to then extract a small fraction of their biomass to then eat that.Animal agriculture takes up 83% of farmland, but produces just 18% of food calories. So the current system just is so wasteful. And the limiting factor is that you're just growing a bunch of food to then feed a third of the world's crops directly to animals, where the vast majority of those calories going in are lost to animals existing." — Seren KellLinks to learn more, summary and full transcript.In today's episode, host Luisa Rodriguez interviews Seren Kell — Senior Science and Technology Manager at the Good Food Institute Europe — about making alternative proteins as tasty, cheap, and convenient as traditional meat, dairy, and egg products.They cover:The basic case for alternative proteins, and why they're so hard to makeWhy fermentation is a surprisingly promising technology for creating delicious alternative proteins The main scientific challenges that need to be solved to make fermentation even more usefulThe progress that's been made on the cultivated meat front, and what it will take to make cultivated meat affordableHow GFI Europe is helping with some of these challengesHow people can use their careers to contribute to replacing factory farming with alternative proteinsThe best part of Seren's jobPlenty moreProducer and editor: Keiran HarrisAudio Engineering Lead: Ben CordellTechnical editing: Dominic Armstrong and Milo McGuireAdditional content editing: Luisa Rodriguez and Katy MooreTranscriptions: Katy Moore
