Are you tired of the never-ending hacks, shortcuts, protocols and gimmicks that some call biohacking?

19-year-olds are juicing up with exogenous hormones and getting implants just to keep up with the Joneses on Instagram.

The materialistic worldview pushed by those with something to sell in the world of health can lead to an unhealthy obsession with appearance and status.

Is this really what health looks like?

How can we transcend the hype, nonsense and noise?

Today, I’m honored to be here with the one and only Paul Chek.

For over 40 years, Paul has been a pioneer in the world of corrective exercise, kinesiology, and holistic health. But his wisdom extends far beyond the physical, as he shares profound insights on the spiritual and existential dimensions of the human experience.

This is no ordinary conversation about health and longevity - it's a masterclass in living an authentic, fulfilling life.

In this episode with Paul Chek, you’ll hear:
  • The dangers of taking shortcuts with your health and joining the biohacking cult
  • How to build the courage to be yourself in a world that conditions you to fit in
  • How our spiritual practice can help optimize our health and longevity
  • Why instead of eating cake on his birthday, Paul stacks enormous rocks to create a monument of stone…
  • And much more…

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
