Are you "boring" or are you just in a low energy state? Constantly tired, irritable, and obsessed with food on your diet? It might not be a lack of willpower, it might be physiological starvation. In this episode, we again dive deep into the Minnesota Starvation Experiment (MSE) to uncover the shocking psychological effects of prolonged calorie deficits that mirror modern restrictive diets.

We break down chapters 38 & 39 of the MSE, revealing how under-eating leads to:

• Crashing sex drive & strained relationships

• Loss of humor, motivation, and social initiative

• Intense food obsession and bizarre eating habits

• The harsh reality that recovery isn't overnight, and can take several months

This isn't just about weight loss; it's about why constant dieting can make you hate your life and how to escape the weight-loss and weight-regain cycle with a smarter, more sustainable approach.

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
