  • Confused

    I like that extreme health fads are being talked about & debunked but I can’t understand how an investigative reporter knew unsettling things about Wim Hoff in 2013 still wrote favourably about him. He helped promote Hoff & now critiques the man & method. He is only now a serious investigative journalist? It seems he really wasn’t ten years ago or spoken about this much sooner.

    I learned about Scott through a friend in the Canadian Special forces. It was about his famous book, what doesn’t kill us.

    He help me going on a better wellness path. But like him, I am really sceptic about some magical gorou and products that fix you.

    I might not connect with all of his podcasts, but I still listen to them all. If you like that someone will dig the truth as close as he can. He his not afraid to change his mind when he realizes he was wrong, to make enemies while doing it. Th... more
