In this chock-full episode of Tapping into Uncomfortable, host Reade Hubert, DC, delves deep into the topic of self-appreciation and the astonishing capabilities of the human body. He highlights our remarkable physiological processes using red blood cell regeneration as an example to inspire listeners to recognize their uniqueness.

He also uses his "4 T's Machine," designed and perfected at the Tapping Into Uncomfortable University's Auto Shop, to analyze recent topics discussed on the podcast. The 4 T's represent thoughts, toxins, trauma, and traits - key elements that influence our health according to his philosophy.

The focus then shifts onto plastics – an omnipresent material in today’s world. Dr. Hubert discusses its prevalence and potential impact on human health through chemical toxicity and mechanical damage at microscopic levels. Despite these concerns, he shares some positive news about fungi and bacteria that can break down certain types of plastic.

Reflecting back on his 'presidential swearing in' he emphasizes belief in personal improvement despite imperfections. He also raises awareness about how lifestyle factors like opioids and COVID-19 have affected life expectancy trends.

A new intriguing question is posed to listeners: Will you be a victim of plastics? This leads into discussing the controversial introduction of Starlink internet service to an isolated Amazon tribe – raising questions about technology's role in modern society versus traditional cultures.

Finally, Dr. Hubert challenges listeners with difficult questions regarding societal issues such as internet addiction, ultra-processed foods' harm, and environmental pollution from plastics - urging personal responsibility for one’s own well-being amidst external influences.

Key Takeaways:

• Self-awareness is crucial; understand your unique physical marvel.
• The “4 T’s” (thoughts, toxins, trauma & traits) are central themes affecting our lives.
