Dr. Wayne Hayes is a NASA scientist, entrepreneur, idea-seeker, and he's the creator of the Cold Shoulder Calorie Burning Vest. He currently teaches at University of California Irvine when he's not appearing on news outlets all over the world featuring the vest.
He & his vest have been featured on Dr. Oz, Men's Fitness, Men's Health, Science Daily, The Atlantic, Shape, CNet, The Telegraph, and more.
We talk about the science behind the vest (that goes back to the 1800's), why it seems like snake oil, common sense that's not so common, global warming, his ill-timed entrepreneurial start in 2008, and a lot more.
I love this vest because it's an idea that's so brilliantly simple, but is devilishly complex in execution. Many thanks to Dr. Hayes for putting the time into making it a reality.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
