In this episode of the Stronger Bones Lifestyle Podcast, I welcome back Dr. Jeff Gross—renowned regenerative medicine specialist, former neurosurgeon, and a leading voice in cutting-edge healing strategies. Together, we explore the incredible potential of stem cells, exosomes, and regenerative medicine to reverse joint degeneration, optimize bone health, and even slow the aging process.Dr. Gross explains how chronic inflammation, lifestyle stressors, and toxin exposure accelerate aging by depleting your body's stem cell function—and how biologic therapies like exosome injections can help restore vitality, repair tissues, and potentially help you avoid surgeries like joint replacements.Whether you're struggling with knee pain, bone loss, osteoporosis, or long COVID, or you're simply interested in aging with strength and mobility, this episode is a must-listen.What You'll Learn in This Episode:What stem cells are and how they function in regenerationThe difference between PRP, stem cells, and exosomesWhy exosomes may be the future of joint repair and anti-agingHow chronic inflammation leads to stem cell exhaustion and accelerated agingThe role of bone marrow as your body's regenerative powerhouseWhy targeted exosome injections into bone (not cartilage) yield better long-term resultsInsight into natural killer (NK) cell exosomes for cancer support and immune healthWhy Dr. Gross shifted from surgery to regenerative medicineThe systemic impact of lifestyle, diet, EMFs, and toxins on healingHow regenerative therapy supports osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, autoimmune conditions, and longevityResources & Links Mentioned:

Dr. Erin Faules sits down with Dr. Mark Goodman to explore the evolving field of non-operative sports medicine. They dive into how metabolic health, inflammation, and lifestyle play critical roles in joint pain and injury recovery—far beyond what traditional orthopedic approaches consider. Dr. Goodman unpacks the promise of orthobiologics like PRP and stem cell therapies, shares insights on aging athletes, and explains why joint care must treat the whole system, not just the symptom.

Aging isn't a slow fade—it's a set of levers you can pull long before the wrinkles show up.  Dr. Julian Gershon breaks down how hormones nosedive by decade, why new moms feel aged overnight, and how stem cells, exosomes, peptides, and bioidentical hormones can reboot your body to age 25—minus the bro-science. If you're sick of being told “you're normal, just wait for menopause,” this one hands you the playbook for feeling switched-on at 30, 40, 50 and beyond.

  Summary In this Pain Exam Podcast episode, Dr. David Rosenblum discusses a journal club article on low volume neurolytic retrocrural celiac plexus blocks for visceral cancer pain. The study reviewed 507 patients with severe malignancy-related abdominal pain, with data retained for 455 patients at the 5-month mark. Dr. Rosenblum explains that the procedure involves injecting 3-5ml of 6% aqueous phenol at the T12-L1 level under fluoroscopic guidance, with an average procedure time of 16.3 minutes. The study found significant pain relief lasting up to six months, reduced opioid consumption, and improved quality of life for patients with primary abdominal cancer or metastatic disease. Dr. Rosenblum shares his personal experience with celiac plexus blocks, including the trans-aortic approach he trained on, and mentions his interest in ultrasound-guided approaches. He also announces upcoming teaching engagements at ASPN, Pain Week, and other conferences, as well as CME ultrasound courses available through nrappain.org. Additionally, he mentions a new community page on the website where users can share board preparation information, though he emphasizes that remembered board questions should not be posted as he is a board question writer himself.

He explains that registered users can access free information and keywords relevant to board exams. He emphasizes that users should not post remembered questions as this would be inappropriate, noting that he himself is a board question writer for various pain boards. Dr. Rosenblum mentions that a post about phenol in this community inspired today's podcast topic. Journal Article Overview on Celiac Plexus Block Dr. Rosenblum introduces a journal article on low volume neurolytic retrocrural celiac plexus block for visceral cancer pain, a retrospective review of 507 patients with severe malignancy-related abdominal pain. He explains that the study assessed pain relief provided by this procedure, its duration, reduction in daily opioid consumption, and quality of life improvements. The patients received neurolytic blocks without previous diagnostic blocks due to multiple comorbidities, which Dr. Rosenblum acknowledges is sometimes necessary with very sick patients despite the typical preference for diagnostic blocks before neurolysis. Dr. Rosenblum's Personal Experience with Celiac Plexus Blocks Dr. Rosenblum shares his personal training experience with trans-aortic celiac plexus blocks, where a needle is inserted through the aorta after confirming no plaques or aneurysms are present. He describes it as a safe and effective procedure despite sounding intimidating. He mentions he's only performed a handful of these procedures and doesn't do many now as an outpatient pain doctor. Study Methods and Results Dr. Rosenblum details the study methods, noting that of 507 patients studied, data for 455 was retained at the end of the review. Patients were evaluated before and after the neurolytic retrocrural celiac plexus block under fluoroscopic guidance. Assessment included procedure duration, pain scores (0-10 scale), daily opioid consumption, and quality of life improvement. Follow-up was completed six months after the procedure, showing improved pain scores, reduced opioid consumption, and better quality of life throughout the study period. Some pain returned during months 4-6 due to disease progression and the anticipated duration of the neurolytic agent. The study noted a 6.7% initial vascular contrast uptake during the procedure while using digital subtraction angiography with fluoroscopy. Study Limitations and Conclusions Dr. Rosenblum discusses the study's limitations, including the need for a larger sample size and a prospective trial with a control group, though he acknowledges this is unrealistic given the patient population. He mentions that a proven quality of life questionnaire would be beneficial, and that comparing alcohol, phenol, and RF thermocoagulation would be interesting to evaluate duration effects and side effects. The study concluded that low volume neurolytic retrocrural celiac plexus block with phenol is safe, providing up to six months of pain relief for abdominal pain due to primary malignancy or metastatic spread. Detailed Procedure Technique Dr. Rosenblum explains the detailed procedure technique used in the study. The retrocrural celiac plexus was targeted at L1 level with aim towards T12. Anterior and posterior radiographic imaging aligning the spinous process of T12-L1 junction was used with 15-20 degree oblique rotation. Local anesthetic (1% lidocaine with sodium bicarbonate) was infiltrated along the injection path. A 22 or 25 gauge 3.5-7 inch curved spinal needle was used depending on patient body habitus. Dr. Rosenblum notes he typically uses a 6-inch Chiba needle or 25 gauge spinal needle for such procedures. Procedure Execution and Monitoring Dr. Rosenblum continues describing the procedure, noting that the needle was advanced to the anterior border of T12-L1 under multiple imaging views. Contrast dye studies verified spread and location, with digital subtraction angiography used to check for intravascular uptake. A test dose of 1ml of 0.5% bupivacaine with epinephrine per site was administered, which Dr. Rosenblum finds interesting as he typically doesn't mix bupivacaine with epinephrine. After confirming no vascular uptake, 3-5ml of 6% aqueous phenol was injected in 1ml aliquots while communicating with the patient. The average procedure time was 16.3 minutes with minimal or no sedation. Patients remained prone for 30 minutes afterward to avoid neuroforaminal spread, as phenol is heavier and more viscous than alcohol. Post-Procedure Care and Study Evaluation Dr. Rosenblum explains that patients were monitored in recovery for one hour for adverse events and their ability to eat and void easily. They were discharged once hospital post-anesthetic criteria were met and received a follow-up call 24 hours later. Dr. Rosenblum praises the study and notes that the procedure looks similar to a lumbar sympathetic plexus block, which is also a sympathetic block. Ultrasound Considerations and Alternative Approaches Dr. Rosenblum shares his interest in ultrasound-guided celiac plexus blocks but acknowledges concerns about bowel perforation. He mentions a conversation with an interventional radiology colleague who suggested a transhepatic approach. Dr. Rosenblum recalls scanning a very thin patient where the aorta was easily visible and close to the anterior abdominal wall, making the celiac plexus potentially accessible if bowel perforation, liver bleeding, or gallbladder perforation could be avoided. He shares an experience with a patient suffering from severe pancreatitis pain who received temporary relief from a paravertebral thoracic nerve block at T8-T10, noting that paravertebral blocks provide some sympathetic spread. Conclusion and Community Resource Reminder Dr. Rosenblum concludes by recommending the article, noting its well-written analysis and graphs showing morphine consumption dropping over months following the procedure. He suggests neurolytic procedures are underutilized because they sound intimidating. He again encourages listeners to check out the community he created with separate chat rooms for regenerative medicine, regional anesthesia, and pain boards, where users can share keywords but not specific board questions. Dr. Rosenblum reminds listeners about upcoming courses and his website resources, mentions an upcoming PRP lecture, and asks for five-star reviews if listeners enjoy the podcast.

I was shocked when my dentist connected my bleeding gums to low estrogen – the same culprit behind my achy joints and poor recovery! This revelation unlocked my understanding of what Dr. Vonda Wright calls the "Musculoskeletal Syndrome of Menopause." If you're waking up feeling stiff, experiencing joint pain, or noticing your body doesn't bounce back like it used to, you're not crazy or broken – you're experiencing a natural but manageable part of midlife. Contrary to popular advice, the answer isn't to move less or accept joint pain as inevitable. I'm sharing the science-backed strategies that helped me delay knee surgery for 25 years and recently transformed my debilitating foot pain into pain-free walking, from strength training protocols to regenerative therapies and anti-inflammatory nutrition approaches that actually work.   What you'll learn: Why joint pain often emerges during perimenopause and menopause (hint: it's about more than just aging) The truth about movement – why "protecting" your joints by moving less actually makes them worse How certain foods can dramatically increase or decrease joint inflammation The critical connection between gut health, inflammation, and joint pain Which supplements have research-backed benefits for joint health (and the specific ones I take daily) Strategies to balance muscle-building against fat gain to protect your joints How regenerative therapies like PRP, stem cells, and cutting-edge treatments can help rebuild cartilage Love the Podcast?

There's definitely a gap in how seriously women's sexual health is taken compared to men's. For many, these issues aren't just physical—they hit self-esteem, relationships, and emotional well-being. But when they finally do speak up, they're often brushed off or handed solutions that barely scratch the surface. It's frustrating, especially knowing that real science exists—just rarely applied with women in mind. There's a growing sense that things need to change, not just in treatment but in the way the entire conversation is handled. Dr. Charles Runels, best known for inventing the O-Shot and Vampire Facial, is transforming how we approach sexual wellness and aesthetic medicine. Today, he talks about the science behind the O-Shot—a PRP-based treatment helping women with low libido, sexual dysfunction, and other intimate health concerns. It's a non-surgical, regenerative approach that uses the body's own healing abilities. With a background in chemistry and internal medicine, Dr. Runels blends hard science with practical application. His mission is to normalize conversations around sexual health and give women real, research-backed options. Stay tuned!

Twin Peaks: the Return: the DECODE episode 4.SONNY JIM IS BACK IN. Full stop. June 1st, 2025 has arrived. We all knew this day would come. 2000 years ago, when the first western savior was born to a virgin in a manger beneath the Star of Bethlehem, the prophecy was set in motion: "Yay, verily, a special child would rise again when the world of shadows most needs him. This savior of the 3rd age wouldst appear impossibly from behind the door of red, in the Court of Lancelot. His name shalt be known only as "Sonny Jim." And Sonny Jim shalt be back on in. " And now it has finally come to pass....Join Post Relevant Podcast hosts Phil Ristaino and Justin Epifanio as we decode Twin Peaks: the Return episode 4. We seek to understand the adventures of Dougie Jones, aka Mr Jackpots, as he wins $425,000.00 and then pees, fails to dress himself, stares in the mirror, eats pancakes, and most importantly, amuses his angel of a son, the impossible boy known to one and all as Sonny Jim.Also: We marvel over Michael Cera as Marlin Brando. We ponder the color yellow. We remember the owls (are not what they seem. ) We talk extra low. We are exonerated in Courts of Law. We watch "A Boy and His Atom" while failing to observe electrons. And we try to fix our hearts or die.And, in the extra secret end section, we debate what might happen if we met ETs in a Dark Forest.But really, I'm just being coy, because this episode is all about the debut of the spanking new smash hit song (in Sweden) entitled "Sonny Jim (Is Back In)." It will change your life and show you how your heart can also be 'so full.'Prepare the way, young warrior! The moment of Post Relevance hath finally arrived! The End of the End of Time is Nigh!

Vaginal oestrogen is safe at any age, including over 70, with regular review Use vaginal oestrogen cautiously in younger women; rule out other causes such like vulval dermatitis In breast cancer survivors, vaginal oestrogen is off-label; prefer estriol and involve oncology Vaginal DHEA (Intrarosa) is effective with minimal absorption; lacks long-term safety data; no washout needed when switching The questions answered in this podcast are listed below.They were compiled by GPs and health professionals around Australia who attended Healthed’s face-to-face seminars. What are the main symptoms for women with vaginal atrophy, and what is the general approach when a woman comes to talk about these symptoms? How long can women use vaginal oestrogen for? If you saw a woman over the age of 70, would you feel comfortable allowing her to continue using vaginal oestrogen? Is it safe to use vaginal oestrogen in a younger woman who might be breastfeeding or taking the combined oral contraceptive pill and experiencing vaginal dryness or discomfort? Do you need to take the same precautions for side effects as you would with systemic hormone therapy? For example, if there was a woman who was prone to venous thromboembolism (VTE), is it safe for her to use vaginal oestrogen? Is there any role for vaginal oestrogen in reducing the frequency of recurrent genital herpes outbreaks? Are there situations where you would use vaginal oestrogen in combination with a non-hormonal product for better results? Thoughts on laser treatments, microneedling, or PRP for vaginal or vulval symptoms? In women who present with urethral caruncles, is there a role for vaginal oestrogen as part of the treatment? How long would you try using vaginal oestrogen for that? What about the doses of oestrogen when treating someone who's had breast cancer? What do we have to be mindful of? What about women with a history of endometrial, cervical, or vulval cancer? Can we use vaginal oestrogen if they've got symptoms? Can DHEA (Intrarosa) be used safely in women with a history of cancer? For women without breast cancer, when would you use DHEA instead of oestrogen? Would you ever use both oestrogen and DHEA together? What about using DHEA in conjunction with systemic menopausal hormone therapy? Are there any thoughts around the improvements in libido with the use of DHEA? If you had tried someone on Ovestin (estriol) and wanted to switch to Intrarosa, is a washout period required before starting?

PRP in the Epidural Space for Radiculopathy Brooklyn Based Pain Physician, David Rosenblum, MD known for his work publishing and teaching Regenerative Pain Medicine and Ultrasound Guided Pain Procedures hosts this podcast covering the latest and most advanced concepts in Pain Medicine. Summary Dr. David Rosenblum delivered a comprehensive lecture covering several key topics in pain management. He discussed his upcoming speaking engagements at PainWeek, ASPN and great upcoming meetings like the Latin American Pain Society, and other conferences. Dr. Rosenblum shared his extensive experience with PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) epidural injections, reviewing multiple research studies that support their efficacy. He highlighted three significant studies: a randomized control trial comparing PRP epidural injections to traditional treatments, a CT-guided epidural PRP study, and a 2025 meta-analysis comparing PRP to steroids. Dr. Rosenblum emphasized that PRP treatments are showing comparable or better results than traditional steroid injections, with potentially fewer required treatments and longer-lasting relief. He noted that while PRP is currently not covered by insurance, it represents a growing trend in 'natural' treatment approaches that patients increasingly prefer. Chapters Introduction and Upcoming Events Dr. Rosenblum announced his upcoming lectures at Pain Week focusing on ultrasound and regenerative medicine, followed by presentations at the Latin American Pain Society in Chile and the New York, New Jersey Pain Conference. He mentioned the SoMeDocs online pain conference accessible through nrappain.org, and upcoming ultrasound training sessions in New York City. PRP Epidural Research Review Dr. Rosenblum discussed a randomized control trial involving 30 patients receiving transforaminal epidural injections. The study showed that PRP patients demonstrated significant improvements in leg pain scores at 6, 12, and 24 weeks. He noted that while the study didn't use contrast, he personally prefers using contrast diluted with saline for better visualization. CT-Guided Epidural Study Analysis Dr. Rosenblum reviewed a study comparing CT-guided epidural PRP versus steroid injections, questioning the necessity of CT guidance. The study included 60 patients and showed similar results between PRP and steroid groups at six weeks, though he criticized the short follow-up period, noting that PRP typically takes months to show full effects. Meta-Analysis Discussion Dr. Rosenblum presented a 2025 meta-analysis comparing PRP to steroids in epidural injections. The analysis included 310 patients across five RCTs, demonstrating comparable efficacy between PRP and steroid injections without increased adverse events. He emphasized that his clinical experience shows patients typically require fewer PRP injections compared to steroid treatments.         Register for Next Weeks SoMeDocs Pain Conference References Wongjarupong, Asarn, et al.

On this episode of The Debbie Nigro Show, Dr. Alan Siegel, co-founder of ProClinix, brings 30+ years of insight on how to recover from injuries, manage chronic pain, and keep your body moving—without relying on surgery or medications. Here are the key takeaways anyone—anywhere—can benefit from:  Injury Prevention Starts Before You're in Pain Dr. Siegel stresses that many injuries, especially from fast-growing sports like pickleball, happen because people jump into activities without prepping their bodies.

This whole-body, drug-free strategy is gaining popularity across the U.S. for its effectiveness in treating everything from back pain to vertigo. No Script? No Problem! In many states like New York, you don't need a prescription to start physical therapy. That means you can get help right away, instead of waiting weeks or months in pain.  Yes, Balance Issues Can Be Treated! Think you just have to live with dizziness or gait problems? Think again. Dr. Siegel explains how physical therapy and specialized maneuvers can dramatically improve balance—and often offer instant relief from symptoms like vertigo.  From Young Athletes to Aging Joints—They Treat It All Whether it's your teenager's sports injury or your mom's hip pain, integrative practices like ProClinix are designed to treat the whole family, no matter the age or condition.    Where Can You Find ProClinix? If you're in the New York Metro area, you're in luck. ProClinix has 7 locations (and growing) including Armonk, Larchmont, West Harrison, Yorktown Heights, Tarrytown, Ardsley, Pleasantville—and a new clinic opening soon in Mount Kisco.   Not local?

Let's start with, What the Heck is a Hack? A hack is a small change or a shortcut designed to improve your life. Today's guest, Zora Benhamou, is the Queen of Midlife Health Hacks. She's also someone who, despite living a very active life, ended up with osteoarthritis.  She tried to avoid surgery for as long as possible. How was she able to do that? She used a few health hacks to get as much "life" out of her hips as possible. She tried PRP, physical therapy, and an anti-inflammatory diet. On the podcast, she discusses a few more hacks that you've got to hear about! Let's also talk about scars. Zora ended up with two hip replacements, and she tried a few different hacks to lessen her scarring. She used a copper peptide cream on one scar and a different product on the other. The copper peptide scar improved so much that she started using it on both wounds, and she's thrilled with the results! I just bought this copper peptide cream, Zora suggested using the link below (20% off!) https://www.vitaliskincare.com/discount/cancerwarrior?ref=cbkmpsij ____ Water Filtration: Boroux I've been looking for a water filter for two years. Okay, maybe I'm a little picky...but my research paid off. I've chosen the Boroux Filter system and am really happy with it. Are you curious about my criteria? Here's what I was looking for in a filter: Removal of heavy metals. The Boroux removes 99.36% of heavy metals. Pharmaceuticals are removed. Because people don't dispose of drugs properly, the drugs get into our water system. The Boroux removes 99.5% of pharmaceutical contaminants. Glyphosate removal (glyphosate is the active ingredient in Roundup and is a known carcinogen). A year ago, I was tested for glyphosate and was in the 95th percentile. I was shocked! Since I was already eating mainly organic, my doctor suggested getting a water filter. I had a challenging time finding one that would filter this chemical, and this was one of my main drivers for purchasing this filter. Boroux has a special offer for my community. Click the link below to research and purchase. https://boroux.sjv.io/7aM1a3 ____ Air Dr. I've been using the Air Doctor air purifier for almost a year and absolutely love it! I first heard about it from Dr. Mark Hyman, and even though it was a bit of a splurge compared to what I usually spend, I'm so glad I invested. Every time I change the filter and see all the gunk it collects, I smile, knowing it's doing a great job keeping my air clean! And I'm so happy that all that gunk isn't going into my body ;) Click here to purchase: https://airdoctorpro.com/?oid=17&affid=6165 ____ Connect with Zora Benhamou Website: https://hackmyage.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hackmyage/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HackMyAge LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/zora-benhamou-37167017/ X: https://x.com/hackmyage ______ Connect with Deborah Deborah on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/whydidigetcancer/ Deborah on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DebsHealthCoachKitchen Deborah on Twitter: https://twitter.com/ydidigetcancer Deborah on Pinterest: https://in.pinterest.com/whydidigetcancer/ Join Deb's weekly newsletter!  -https://whydidigetcancer.us14.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=1c37affeccf004c8957941069&id=a8572db3c2

Hair plays a crucial role in our identity, often symbolizing youth and confidence. Dr. Alan Bauman, with nearly 30 years in hair restoration, has seen the profound impact of hair loss and emphasizes dispelling misconceptions. Many hesitate to seek help, thinking their hair loss isn't severe or treatments are ineffective. However, early intervention is vital. Addressing hair loss early can prevent further thinning and even reverse it. Dr. Bauman stresses this proactive approach. A common myth is that hair restoration is only for complete baldness. In reality, early action yields better outcomes. Men noticing a receding hairline and women experiencing thinning should seek evaluation. Early detection allows for non-invasive treatments and lifestyle changes to prevent further loss. Minimally Invasive Transplants The era of "hair plugs" is over. Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) has revolutionized transplants, leaving no linear scars and allowing quick recovery. Bauman Medical prioritizes natural hairlines that suit facial features. Patients experience faster recovery, less discomfort, and natural-looking results. While transplanted follicles are permanent, other hair needs ongoing maintenance due to factors like hormones and stress. Advanced Non-Surgical Therapies Modern restoration extends beyond transplants. Options include Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy, using a patient's blood to stimulate growth. Exosome Therapy boosts regeneration, and PDO Threads provide support for growth. FDA-cleared Red Light Therapy, like the Bauman Turbo Laser Cap, promotes healthier hair with daily use. Early Intervention and Future Tech Hair thinning can begin earlier than many realize, sometimes as early as high school or college. Individuals with a family history of hair loss should proactively monitor their hair health. Women with conditions like PCOS are particularly vulnerable to early hair loss due to hormonal imbalances. Regular measurements and early treatments, such as PRP or nutraceuticals, can prevent irreversible damage. One promising development is hair cloning, which could eliminate supply limitations for hair transplants. While still under development, Dr. Bauman has already banked his own hair follicle stem cells in anticipation of this technology. Stem cell banking allows individuals to preserve their healthiest hair follicles for future regenerative therapies, ensuring they are ready when cloning becomes a reality. For those concerned about hair loss, early action is crucial. Avoid quick fixes and consult a qualified, board-certified hair restoration physician. In this podcast, you'll learn: Latest advancements and misconceptions in hair restoration. Minimally invasive transplant techniques with natural results. Advanced non-surgical therapies like PRP, Exosome, and Red Light Therapy. The importance of early intervention and future technologies like hair cloning and stem cell banking.   EPISODE RESOURCES: Instagram LinkedIn Facebook

From picking the right race, to training in a sustainable way, to finding the right mindset, tune in to learn why Machine Athletics always starts by understanding the runner before ever understanding the run.Wait wait wait, we got Coach Oprah in the house?!

Hunting in steep terrains exacerbated his patellar tendon issues. Sitting for long hours at work contributed to his knee pain. He explored various treatments including PRP and stem cell injections. The 10x procedure was recommended to address scar tissue in his tendon. Physical therapy played a crucial role in his recovery process. Isometric exercises helped him engage his quad muscle effectively. Gibson found that consistent loading improved his knee condition. He realized the importance of proper diagnosis and treatment for tendinopathy. Gibson's journey highlights the need for tailored rehabilitation strategies. Isometric exercises can provide immediate pain relief. Leg extensions have been particularly effective for Gibson. Rehabilitation is a gradual process that requires patience. Setting athletic goals can motivate recovery efforts. Flare-ups are a normal part of the healing journey. Strength training plays a crucial role in recovery. Listening to your body is essential during rehabilitation. Avoid falling for quick-fix solutions for tendon pain. Maintaining a healthy diet can support recovery. Engaging in activities you love, like hunting, can be challenging but rewarding.    Gibson in Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gibsonbutler.596/ Notes: https://jackedathlete.com/podcast-145-overcoming-patellar-tendinopathy-with-gibson-butler/

Ike Barinholtz (The Studio, Running Point, The Mindy Project) is a comedian, actor, and writer. Ike returns to the Armchair Expert to discuss how the Declaration of Independence was really the result of one big goon fest, presenting like a dumbass while he's actually a smartypants, and being one of one in the category of people Dax doesn't mind being wrong to. Ike and Dax talk about why their leading man potential has only grown as they've reached middle age, lung chugging laughing gas while receiving PRP treatments, and the age criteria for a dickoplasty. Ike explains that Kate Hudson insisted his father kiss her on the lips while filming Running Point, what it was like to act for hours in one-take scenes with Martin Scorsese for The Studio, and relishes the honor of being a member of the Three Episode Club.Follow Armchair Expert on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.
