Greens Powder Power

In this episode, Jem and Donny dive into the world of green powders—what people expect from them, what’s inside, and whether the science stacks up.

We unpack results from our Greens Survey, review key studies, and look at how ingredients and pricing measure up in the real world.

👉 The bottom line: If your diet is poor, a greens powder won’t save you. If your nutrition is solid, it might give you an extra edge—but...

ROUTINE SETS YOU FREE. WHY YOU SHOULD MASTER THE CHAOS

We often think of routine as boring, restrictive, or limiting—but in truth, routine is freedom. It’s the discipline that gives you space to thrive, not just survive.

  • Jocko Willink (Navy SEAL & discipline advocate): “Discipline equals freedom.”

  • Dr. B.J. Fogg (Stanford): “Tiny habits reliably shape identity.”

  • NASA: If routine keeps astronauts sane in space, imagine what it ca...

Shit My Dad Says and why it matters more than you think.

We’ve all heard them—those one-liners dads throw out at just the right (or wrong) time. Maybe they made you roll your eyes as a kid… but here’s the thing: those sayings stick for a reason.


This episode digs into why “dad sayings” aren’t just throwaway lines—they’re memory-efficient life frameworks. Short, punchy, emotionally charged, and repeated in formative moments, they...

Supplements: Magic Pills or Marketing Hype? Before you spend big, listen up.


Do you really need supplements—or are you just buying into expensive hype?


Conventional wisdom says “eat a balanced diet”, but let’s be honest: most of us don’t. Add in the fact that as we age our bodies process nutrients less efficiently, plus the realities of modern lifestyles, food supply chains, and environmental stressors, and suddenly “nutritio...

Health Gummies - Fad or not? Should you use them? Are they better or cheaper?
All the rage, or never heard of them?
Kids’ vitamin gummies have been around for decades, but now gummies are taking over the adult health market, from creatine to vitamin D and iron.

Collagen - A big business for a reason. Injury, Recovery, Skin, Ligaments, Tendons, and it naturally decreases from the late 20s. Got your attention?

Collagen makes up nearly 30% of the body’s protein, giving strength and structure to skin, muscles, bones, and connective tissue. But as we age, our natural collagen declines—and no...
