Editor's Note (February 2026): Since this episode was first published, documents released by the Department of Justice have revealed Peter Attia's connection to Jeffrey Epstein. We find these revelations deeply troubling and do not condone any association with Epstein or his activities.
After careful consideration, we've chosen to keep this episode in our archive. Removing it would erase a record of who we've platformed—and we think transparency is vital to building trust with our audience and community. ---

How to pursue fitness without succumbing to the "subtle aggression of self-improvement."
The kickoff episode for the latest installment of an occasional series we do here on the show, called Get Fit Sanely (listen to past – and future – episodes here).
In this candid conversation, managing producer DJ Cashmere talks with Dan about how they manage their mindsets on these issues, and how the interviews we're doing on the subject have and have not impacted them. We'll also preview the guests for this fresh round of Get Fit Sanely, where we cover longevity, Ozempic (and related weight loss drugs), the latest science on exercise, and the Buddhist case for laziness.
