Can you use hate to make the world a better place?
Daryl Davis, a world-class jazz musician, didn’t just confront hate—he dismantled it. By sitting down with over 200 Ku Klux Klan members, he inspired them to leave their robes behind. But this isn’t just a story about racism or redemption; it’s a story about the incredible power of human connection and the lessons it holds for all of us.
In this special episode, Dave explores how Daryl turned impossible conversations into transformative breakthroughs. Together, they unpack the mindset shifts, emotional intelligence, and fearless curiosity that can break down barriers of all kinds—whether they’re rooted in bias, fear, or misunderstanding.
Daryl’s approach to erasing hate is so unique, so impactful, that it may just change how you view conflict, compassion, and even your own health.
What You’ll Learn:
• How Daryl’s global upbringing shaped his fearless approach to conflict
• Why eliminating hate starts with understanding, not opposition
• The neuroscience of compassion and how it rewires your brain
• How forgiveness can transform your health and happiness
• A step-by-step framework for tackling impossible conversations

Does Calorie Restriction Even Work? What About the Carnivore Diet AND Fruit?
Today we are excited to have Paul Saladino join us for a masterclass on food and diets. Dr. Saladino dives into the evolution of keto and carnivore diets, cutting through trends to focus on lasting health impacts. Dr. Saladino, widely recognized as CarnivoreMD, shares how his own diet shifted to include fruit and honey alongside animal-based nutrition, and why metabolic flexibility—not rigid rules—leads to better outcomes. Together, he and Dave challenge assumptions about long-term ketosis, examine its potential downsides, and explore how to optimize diets for energy, gut health, and longevity.
They also tackle controversial topics like the risks of seed oils, the overhyped reputation of “health foods” like quinoa, and the critical roles insulin and nutrient density play in overall wellness. With insights on balancing mTOR, managing omega fats, and incorporating organ meats, this episode offers a nuanced perspective for anyone interested in biohacking, nutrition science, or simply eating smarter.
What you’ll learn:
• Why metabolic flexibility matters more than strict diet rules
• The science behind long-term ketosis and insulin’s broader role in health
• How common “health foods” could be doing more harm than good
• The importance of nutrient-dense animal-based foods for gut and immune health
• How to achieve optimal balance between fat types, mTOR, and longevity markers

Have we finally discovered the key to youthful energy, longevity, and cellular health?
In this episode, Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Anurag Singh, Chief Medical Officer at Timeline Nutrition and a leading expert on mitochondrial health, cellular regeneration, and anti-aging science. With over 20 years of research, 50 clinical trials, and 15 patents under his belt, Dr. Singh unpacks the groundbreaking science behind Urolithin A, a revolutionary postbiotic that boosts mitochondrial function, enhances immune system resilience, and combats chronic inflammation.
This episode goes beyond cutting-edge science. Dr. Singh reveals practical, real-world strategies to combat “inflammaging”—the chronic, low-grade inflammation that accelerates aging. Learn how fasting, gut health, and mitochondrial boosters like Urolithin A can rejuvenate your cells, fight fatigue, and supercharge your energy, vitality, and longevity.
Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:
• What Urolithin A is and its role in mitochondrial health and cellular energy production
• How to reverse “inflammaging” and reduce inflammation through nutrition, fasting, and biohacking
• The connection between mitochondrial dysfunction and immune system aging
• Real-life benefits of Urolithin A for energy levels, athletic recovery, skin health, and longevity
• Why mitochondrial support is critical for combating aging and improving overall performance

Are exosomes the planet’s ultimate healing tool?!
In this episode, Dave Asprey sits down with Harvard-trained physician Dr. Edward Park to explore the groundbreaking science of exosomes. Dr. Park, a pioneer in regenerative medicine and author of Exosomes: Songs of Healing, explains how these tiny cellular messengers are revolutionizing health and longevity by bypassing the limitations of stem cells.
BUT this episode isn’t just about cutting-edge science. Dr. Park also shares profound insights into life, resilience, and emotional well-being, offering advice that goes far beyond medicine. From the power of forgiveness to breaking free of limiting beliefs, his perspective blends science, spirituality, and practical wisdom for living a better life.
Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:
• How exosomes work and why they’re being called the future of regenerative medicine
• The key differences between exosomes and stem cells—and which is better for healing
• Real-life applications of exosome therapy for injuries, anti-aging, and overall health
• The potential of exosomes to enhance brain function, reduce inflammation, and promote recovery
• Dr. Park’s advice on emotional resilience, gratitude, and creating lasting change
With over a decade of experience, Dr. Park shares compelling case studies, cutting-edge insights, and practical advice for anyone looking to upgrade their body, mind, and life.
