When was the last time you took a luxurious breath of fresh air straight from nature? The more time we spend sitting indoors surrounded by stale air and artificial light, shackled to desks and screens, the more our health suffers. It's no wonder we're sicker than ever. Returning to the show to save the day is the breathing and natural movement OG, Erwan Le Corre. Erwan is a true wild man with a diverse background in sailing, diving, Olympic weight lifting, rock climbing, long distance triathlons, trail running, and even Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. And that's just the tip of the iceberg.

Are we being mind controlled? What's wrong with a sterilized culture, where speaking out against the status quo gets you shadow-banned and censored across platforms? When free speech and free expression on all sides are egregiously squashed by unelected technocratic powers with zero accountability, it's clear someone is trying to influence or control the conversation. That's why it's more important than ever to do your homework and think for yourself, especially when your health is concerned. You have to take on that responsibility. And joining us today is the perfect guest to talk through some spicy and timely topics, our friend and fellow podcaster, writer and founder of Wild Foods, Colin Stuckert. We need all the good people we can get to make it through this circus with our health and sanity intact. Colin is doing great work and I'm honored that our messages and businesses are so aligned. On this show with Colin Stuckert, where we're chatting about: The dangers of sterilizing culture What we can learn fr

What's worth more? A $20 bill or a bottle of wine? In a pinch, I've realized real world pleasures like wine can be worth more than cold hard cash. With rising food inflation and obvious issues with our supply chains, it's a good time to make sure you're stocked up on provisions for whatever life throws at you. Which is why, even if you don't drink or you're not drinking right now, having a supply of high quality biodynamic natural wines can be a worthy alternative investment. (Hey there legal eagles, this is not investment advice.) When a friend recently turned down payment in the form of money—actually a couple of crisp $20 bills, he just would not take them—but he gladly accepted our bottle of wine. And that just reinforced the notion that having a diversity of items available to barter and trade could come in mighty handy in the future that we're facing. So returning to the show today is our very good friend, Todd White. Todd is a serial entrepreneur, writer, speaker, and founder of our all-time favorite s

You know how a steak is marbled with fat—the fatter the animal, the more fat you see marbled through the muscle meat? Did you know the same thing can happen in your muscles? When you don't have your strength, when you're not training, when you're de-conditioned or sedentary, the muscles in the human body can actually become marbled with fat. I don't know about you, but that image alone is enough to keep me training. And we have the perfect guests here today. I'm happy to say that joining us is Dr. Gregory Kelly, a naturopathic physician, author of Shape Shift: The Shape Intelligence Solution, and the director of product development over at Neurohacker Collective. Dr. Kelly has published numerous articles on natural medicine and nutrition, contributed three chapters to the Textbook of Natural Medicine and has more than 30 journal articles indexed on PubMed. He’s the real deal. And on today’s episode, we're talking about: Why you don't want marbled muscles Taking a holistic view of health How sunlight is relat

Have you tried eating low carb yet? How did it go? How did you feel? Did it last? Be honest. Many people get incredible results by kicking out all the processed junk, sugar, and by dialing down the carbs, but I'm going to be honest with you, I love carbs. After my hard workouts, after my runs up the mountains, there's definitely a place for good carbs like wild rice, quinoa, sweet potato, old school sourdough, even some treats every once in a while. Carbs can be our friends too. So how do we scale our intake of fat, protein, and carbs, to achieve our ideal body composition? Today, we're here with a perfect person to talk about it, the wonderful and talented, Tara Garrison. Tara is a certified personal trainer, nutritionist, and mindset coach who helps high performers, including celebrities, professional athletes, and top executives optimize their health. In today’s episode, we're chatting about: How lifting weights makes everything easier Why you should do keto but not forever Intermittent fasting from a wom

What if you could save thousands of dollars every year on your food budget by eating higher quality food?

In May of 2018, Tyler weighed over 300 pounds and his wife was concerned for his health.

Ever since the world shut down, crippling small businesses, decimating communities and filling us all with fears of certain death, the response from politicians and world government has been disturbingly inadequate, to say the least. Instead of educating the public on how to strengthen our immune system, politicians have preyed on people's fears, divided us, locked us inside, forced us all to cover our faces with cloth, and socially distance all the while. But there's a big difference between socially distancing and physically distancing. I'm beginning to feel that this choice of words was not an accident. Also used as a form of torture, social distancing and isolation—especially combined with too much social media and screen time—destroys our relationships and damages our mental health. Living in a constant state of anxiety and fear is just about the worst possible thing for our health and well-being. When our mental health suffers our physical health falls apart. And at some point, we'll all have to acknowl

Did you ever dream of being a pro athlete? What happens when your goal becomes impossible? It seems like an uphill battle out there recently, and a new playing field, so to speak. You really need an ally. You need someone who's a comrade, someone who's there. And so often that’s just being there physically for them, but also just being that supportive force in the world of Doritos, Oreos, Facebook and all the rest of it. It's rough out there, so we need to prop each other up where we can. And to help us out, today we’re here with David Nurse, an NBA life optimization coach, podcast host, worldwide motivational speaker, and bestselling author of “Pivot & Go.” A former pro basketball player and coach for the Brooklyn Nets, David has helped more than 150 NBA players really succeed on and off the court. You’re going to like this one. On this show with David, we’re talking about: How to turn a strength into a superpower How to harness the power of visualization with your personal highlight reel Why it takes 1

So, you've heard some of these words that are bouncing all around the inter-webs recently: Carnivore, keto, plant-based, vegan. But do you know the nuances of what all these different words mean? What's the difference between keto and Atkins? What's the difference between clean keto and dirty keto? I mean, we can get really complicated with this. Whether it's plant-based, carnivore, detoxes, cleanses—words are very confusing, more than ever. And as it turns out, the meaning of words actually matters. So today, we're here to dial-in the meaning a little bit, so that you can actually figure out what to put on your plate. No matter what identity or word you're following, there are certain principles you can follow to take your health back into your own hands. So joining us on the show today is our friend, Ben Azadi, best-selling author of 3 books—The Perfect Health Booklet, The Intermittent Fasting Cheat Sheet, and The Power of Sleep—he’s also a health coach, public speaker and host of the Keto Kamp Podcast.

Who’s hijacking the internet? It started out, you'd pick up a phone and you'd call or text one other person. But now, we’re all in these separate little online groups. We're connected but it's also been co-opted. And it attacks us from so many different directions. And no matter how much they try to bury us, we can still find each other, we just might need to try a little bit harder. Well, I’m happy to say that returning to the show today is long-time friend, fellow podcaster, and multi-talented maniac Vinnie Tortorich.
