• #2054 Real Food vs. Supplements - Kate Save
    Nov 25 2025

    Kate Save (accredited Exercise Physiologist and Dietician) joins Tiff and I to discuss a brand-new study (randomized controlled trial, October, 2025) comparing whole food with a supplement-based very-low-energy diet and it's the first time l've ever heard Kate fired up! Apart from chatting about the study results, we also discuss the multitude of psychological, emotional, physiological, social and practical variables that go into what we eat, why we eat and how we eat. Enjoy.

  • #2051 Learning vs. Memorising - Kelly Smith
    Nov 22 2025

    Is memorising a fact or piece of information to pass a test or meet a requirement actually learning, or is it just filing another thing in our cognitive hard-drive that will never the see light of day in a practical, behavioural sense? Does learning need to equate to doing, or can it be just about knowing stuff that we'll never operationalise? In this chat, Kelly, Tiff and I explore this quirky little question and lots more. Enjoy.

  • #2050 Hard Conversations & Feedback - Bobby Cappuccio
    Nov 21 2025

    As someone who has employed hundreds of people, trained thousands, coached a bunch, lectured at University and answered more questions than I can remember, I can say with some confidence that people love to receive feedback - as long as it's feedback they love. Let's just say that the claim "I love getting feedback" is often not supported in the real world, with real feedback. In this episode, Bobby and I unpack feedback (giving and receiving), hard conversations, reading the room, social intelligence, emotional intelligence, situational awareness and lots more. Enjoy.

  • #2049 The Fertility Crisis - David Gillespie
    Nov 20 2025

    According to Gillespo, us blokes are producing less and less swimmers, fertility levels are plummeting and in the not-too-distant future, couples ability to be able to produce offspring could be dependant on some kind of medical intervention. It's a good thing l'm a hundred years past my use-by date. Enjoy.

  • #2048 Anti-establishment Medicine - Dr. Jeff Gross
    Nov 19 2025

    Dr. Jeff is back and this episode is one of the more meandering, informal, getting-to-know-you (type of) chats I've had with the Doc, and I loved it. We spoke about self-experimentation, biofeedback, personalised medicine, biohacks, the future direction of it all, the need for some 'anti-establishment' thinking and why Big Pharma (and the like) definitely don't want any research dollars or energy going into any of that mind-body, self-healing (placebo type) stuff. Imagine if we actually had the potential to heal ourselves? That's definitely gonna f**k with someone’s bottom line a p**s off a few million shareholders. Enjoy.

  • #2047 Brain Literacy - Harps (PT1)
    Nov 18 2025

    This episode is a deep dive into the single most powerful, confusing and occasionally uncooperative thing you own - your brain. In this episode we strip away the jargon and talk in normal-people language about how your 1.3kg prediction machine actually works - why it reacts before you think, why you repeat patterns, what stress does to your operating system, and how much you can genuinely rewire. It's not a neuroscience lecture; it's a user manual for running your brain - and your life - better. Enjoy.

  • #2046 Exercise in a Pill - Dr. Bill Sullivan
    Nov 17 2025

    What if some of the physical benefits of exercise could be delivered in a capsule? It sounds like sci-fi, but two new scientific studies suggest we might be inching closer to that reality. In this fascinating episode, Tiff and I sit down with geneticist, author and science communicator Professor Bill Sullivan Jr. to unpack the growing field of exercise mimetics - therapies designed to replicate certain physiological effects of working out, without the sweat session. As you'd imagine, I have a few philosophical objections and questions but nonetheless, it's interesting research with vast potential, this was a fun chat with one of my favourites and no, the pill is not intended to become a 'replacement' (per se) but rather a potential option for some individuals with certain limitations and challenges. Enjoy.
