  • The interview communication style of the host is annoying

    There are definitely interesting topics covered in the podcast, but the host, Andrew, constantly interrupts his guests and has a tendency to »guestsplaining« (he explains instead of letting his guests, the experts, talk).

    On top of that, the products Andrew promotes are questionable— especially in a podcast that prides itself on science.

  • From brilliant to ok

    Listener from the very first season here. Used to have a review with the highest of praise for this podcast. However… after the Cesar Milan episode something changed… suddenly I was listening to a fanboy interviewing his hero who has no scientific background. The lack of critical questions and the amount of oversharing of their personal experiences with dogs to get complimented by the hero were so off putting. Sure the guest had some interesting concepts to share, concepts that are not all that ... more

  • Alcohol

    Probably the best breakdown of Alcohol and its benefits vs not drinking. I don’t remember the title but definitely worth listening to it because I finally quit and forever grateful for the knowledge of facts.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Your Top Health Questions Answered
Q: What is the best pre-workout for someone exercising late in the day to maximize strength without impairing sleep?
Use Alpha GPC 600-900 mg to boost acetylcholine, focus, and alertness without acting like a classic stimulant, potentially improving REM sleep and not hindering overall sleep; avoid late caffeine that disrupts sleep; also consider timing and overall sleep hygiene to support cortisol patterns.
Essentials: Tools for Hormone Optimization in Males | Dr. Kyle Gillett
Q: How often should blood work be done when monitoring hormone health, assuming no major interventions?
Typically every six months, with shared decision-making with a physician to tailor the monitoring schedule based on interventions and individual risk factors.
Essentials: Tools for Hormone Optimization in Males | Dr. Kyle Gillett
Q: What are the key things to look for in blood work besides testosterone when optimizing male hormones?
Beyond testosterone, SHBG levels, free testosterone, and interactions with estrogen and DHT are important; high SHBG can reduce available androgens, and monitoring IGF-1, vitamin D status, and overall hormonal balance across life stages helps tailor treatment.
Essentials: Psychedelics & Neurostimulation for Brain Rewiring | Dr. Nolan Williams
Q: What is the basic premise of Stanford Neuromodulation Therapy (SNT) and how does it differ from traditional TMS?
SNT uses space learning theory to reorganize stimulation in time, delivering a much denser, scheduled sequence over a five-day block to achieve higher remission rates than traditional daily sessions, while focusing on circuit-level changes rather than serotonin-driven mechanisms.
Essentials: The Science of Eating for Health, Fat Loss & Lean Muscle | Dr. Layne Norton
Q: What's a practical approach to protein intake for someone trying to lose weight but preserve lean mass?
Aim for a high total protein intake (often 1.6 g/kg body weight or higher), distribute protein across meals, and consider isolated protein sources or leucine supplementation for vegan diets to maximize muscle protein synthesis.
