    Detox Tricks: Parasites, Heavy Metals, Toxins | Joshua Macin EP 230

    In this episode, I sat down with Josh Macin (founder of The Detox Dudes), a former Jiu-Jitsu world and Pan American champion who went from peak physical and professional success to a complete physical and mental collapse.


    He shares the exact step-by-step protocol that finally turned his life around: including mast cell stabilization (including ketotifen) parasite cleansing, liver flushes and gallbladder support, heavy metal chelation/detox and more. We also discuss coffee enemas for liver/parasite support, DMSO with castor oil, why many chronic illnesses (anxiety, depression, fatigue, food sensitivities) may stem from hidden toxicity rather than just "stress" or "psychology," and the importance of regaining control over your body and mind. Enjoy!

    The Doctor Who's Finally Studying Carnivore | Rob Abbott EP 229

    In this episode, Dr. Robert Abbott, a clinician and researcher in functional medicine, joined me to discuss his role in what is set to become the largest study ever conducted on rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) using dietary intervention, specifically the ketogenic diet and the carnivore “lion” diet. These conditions are typically treated with powerful immunosuppressive medications, yet very little rigorous research has explored how diet itself might influence inflammation, symptoms, and quality of life.We discussed why dietary interventions have historically been neglected in medical research and the long established history of research and randomized trials for vegan diets (which are extensive despite the nutritional profile of the carnivore diet beating it on nearly every nutritional metric without use of supplements).We also talked about the current evidence that inspired the study. At the moment, there are no large dedicated trials examining ketogenic or carnivore diets for RA or IBD. The largest published evidence in inflammatory bowel disease is a 2024 case series of just 10 patients following mostly carnivore–ketogenic diets, where all participants achieved remission with significant quality-of-life improvements. While promising, the study was small and uncontrolled—which is why larger, rigorous research like this is needed.Enjoy!Link to GoFundMe: https://gofund.me/e8ba31ba4Link to apply to the study: https://l.bttr.to/mXwngCriteria for Inclusion:1. Lives in US (for labs)2. Age 18-643. Confirmed IBD (Crohn's or UC) or RA diagnosis - and willing to confirm with our team4. No previous carnivore or keto diet for more than 4 weeks5.

    How to Identify and Treat Mold Illness (CIRS) | Ariana Thacker EP 228

    In this episode, I had a conversation with Ariana Thacker, founder and CEO of MoldCo, to discuss mold-related illness and Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS). In 5-10 years everyone will know and understand how pervasive this is.Ariana shares her personal journey from chemical engineer and venture capitalist to patient—and ultimately founder—after severe mold exposure left her cognitively impaired, exhausted, and searching for answers the conventional medical system couldn’t provide. We break down how mold illness actually presents in the body, why it’s so often misdiagnosed or dismissed, and how inflammation can affect the brain, hormones, immune system, and mental health.We also discuss genetic susceptibility, what proper testing actually looks like, and how treatment protocols like the Shoemaker approach work in practice. Ariana Thacker is the founder and CEO of MoldCo, a healthcare technology company and virtual care clinic redefining how medicine approaches environmental illness, starting with mold.

    Understand Female Desire, Attraction, and Partner Choice | Sarah Hill EP 227

    In this episode, I sat down with Dr. Sarah Hill, evolutionary psychologist, researcher, and author of The Period Brain. Dr. Hill is an expert in how hormones shape female psychology, attraction, relationships, health, and behavior. Dr. Hill broke down the science behind hormonal birth control and mate selection and we discussed what happens when women meet partners on birth control and later come off it, and why those shifts can feel confusing, destabilizing, or even identity-altering.We also explored The Period Brain and how attraction changes across the menstrual cycle and we talked about stress, safety, relationships, and identity—why feeling safe is biologically essential for women and how chronic stress can suppress ovulation even when periods appear “normal.”This is an episode for every woman and every man interested in actually understanding women.

    It’s Way Worse Than You Think: P*rnhub | Laila Mickelwait EP 225

    In this disturbing episode, I was joined by Laila Mickelwait (@laila). She’s the founder of the Justice Defense Fund and the global #TraffickingHub movement.


    Laila broke down real cases, including a missing 15-year-old girl found in 58 videos on the site, and detailed how P*rnhub’s parent company, MindGeek, failed to moderate content responsibly.


    Laila has spent nearly 20 years fighting trafficking, and she shared how her discovery of unmoderated, illegal content on P*rnhub led to a global campaign for accountability.


    We explored how early p*rn exposure affects children, the rise of sextortion, why age and consent verification must become the industry standard, and how to help protect kids in an unregulated digital world.

    AI and How to Not Get Left Behind | Tom Bilyeu EP 221

    In this episode, I sat down with entrepreneur Tom Bilyeu and discussed the potential disruptions AI could bring to society and business–which Tom likened to that of the printing press in terms of initial fear, destruction, acceptance, and ultimately rote utilization. Tom offered his view on the risks and opportunities of integrating artificial intelligence into our daily lives. From AI-powered gaming characters with memory to movies that update in real time based on what you’re paying attention to, to Musk’s humanoid robots walking among us–it’s going to be insane. Tom also emphasized the decision each of us will have to make as AI advances–to embrace “human-only” and stand out in that particular niche, or lean into our role as cyborgs. We touched on self-improvement, resilience, and building community in the digital age. Tom also dived into how he built a billion dollar company (Quest Nutrition), and shared strategies for thriving in a world of constant innovation: underscoring the importance of curiosity and adaptability as we move forward into this technological unknown.
