Episode notes
From Skate Parks To Science
- Andrew Huberman describes his teen years immersed in skateboarding and punk scenes and skipping school after his parents' divorce.
- That period shaped his identity and later channeled into disciplined work when he returned to education.
Brain As A Prediction Machine
- The brain is a prediction machine that stamps experiences into lasting maps via neuroplasticity.
- Music and formative experiences become triggers because they get deeply encoded during adolescence.
Boundary Between Image And Teaching
- Huberman chooses to keep tattoos covered when teaching to avoid distracting students and keep focus on the material.
- He distinguishes authenticity from oversharing and sets boundaries in public teaching.
