#138: Now for some COVID-19 Face Mask Science & Sanity!
In this short episode, Steve lays out his science-driven position on the Face Mask Mandates we are seeing across the UK, Europe and many other regions of the world.
It's time to challenge the shaming, guilting and scaremongering that comes along with the push to normalise Mask wearing in society. Enough is enough... this anti-science can no longer carry on unchecked.
In this monologue episode, Steve covers:
Challenging the popular logic-based Social Media Face Mask memes
Evaluating the actual current-day risk and empirical date for COVID-19 in England
How actions must be justified by current risk - and always is (normally)
A little microbiology on virus sizes and putting them in perspective
Addressing the idea of shielding others from your Cough and Sneeze particles
What does all the Mask Research say? What does the WHO say?
Getting into the details of Cloth Masks, Surgical Masks and N95/FFP2 Respirators
How valved N95 / FFP2 masks increase the risk to others
Calling out the disgusting shaming tactics of the public and media
Addressing the idea that "calm down, it's only for a couple of weeks"
Why would the English Government mandate Masks... now?!?
The reality of our co-habiting relationships with viruses
What is the solution? How do I defend against COVID-19?
How can the Government actually help the vulnerable, and the rest of us?
If you want to challenge this… please do. I’d just ask you to cite empirical data and/or robust scientific evidence that the UK risk in mid July requires such a divisive measure, and that COVID-19 infection is actively prevented through the wearing of masks.
Failing that, how about you just provide strong science that Masks are effective in preventing other respiratory diseases and infections?

#137: Endocannabinoid Sytem & CBD Masterclass ~Nikki Edyvane
Nikki Edyvane, a technical CBD specialist and qualified complimentary medical practitioner, walks us through what is a true masterclass on the newly discovered Endocannabinoid System and the positive health effects of Cannabidiol (CBD).
It turns out that we have an ancient system within our body called the Endocannabinoid System that was only discovered 29 years ago! There is a flurry of constant research to better understand the integral and critical role of this system on on all over bodily processes within humans.
However, there continues to be no interest from allopathic medicine and institutional healthcare to accelerate this research and learn more on how to modulate, optimise and prescribe for this important bodily system. Why the resistance?
Well, in today’s episode we answer this question and so much more. What motives drove cannabis to become illegal? What is the Endocannabinoid system and what does it effect? How does CBD Oil have therapeutic effects on a number of bodily conditions?
Nikki Edyvane has an advanced diploma in CBD, has conducted over 1500+ hours of research in this field, has become very familiar with the research and trials, and is an educator of CBD and ECS across the industry. He’s definitely qualified for the discussion, and is incredibly passionate.
We dig into the science behind CBD Oil, how you naturally improve your ECS system, how sleep and anxiety are improved with CBD, and whether CBD has adverse effects and additive properties. I even discuss my early experience with CBD, and so much more… check out the full show notes.
So, if you are keen to demystify the talk, science and stigma attached to CBD and Cannabis derivatives so you can assess if CBD Oil is worth exploring for your health, then this is the one-stop-shop podcast episode for you!

#135: Real Talk on Women's Body & Health Pressures ~Molly Galbraith
Molly Galbraith, the face and co-founder of Girls Gone Strong, joins us for a really honest and real-world look into the pressures and challenges women face around their appearance in todays society.
More of these conversations are needed, as it brings a voice to many of the struggles women face around their bodies and health. A voice that brings brings women together through their common experience, and helps men empathetically see the powerful social pressures women are under.
Molly is absolutely the right person for this conversation! She’s had quite the rollercoaster with her body and self-worth over the last 16 years, and has spent the last 8 years connecting, understanding and educating over 700,000 women worldwide on health and fitness through Girls Gone Strong.
Molly’s commitment to understand the psychological issues and needs of women regarding health, fitness and physique is unrivalled. Her personal battles and struggles, a career of being in the gym, being an educator, as well an ambassador for women’s wellbeing brings a level of understanding and empathy which women and men get so much out of.
This episode covers how culturally women have been conditioned to care so deeply about how their bodies look and the judgement of others. We talk about the obsession with leanness, the issues with tying your self-worth to your body, the common mismatch between goals and actions, building muscle as a women, and the aggressive language within fitness. Molly shares her story, her battle with Hashimoto’s, and how she balances out her life and wellbeing needs now. Plus lots more.
As a man, I would thoroughly encourage every guy to listen to this, and I hope for women that Molly and I carefully and accurately covered some world-truths and health and fitness issues you care about. A must-listen for everyone! I personally learnt so much...

#134: The New Paradigm of Heart Disease ~Dr. Nadir Ali
30 year+ Cardiologist Dr. Nadir Ali provides his incredible real-world insight into Heart Disease - garnered from the 1000’s of hearts he has opened up, clients he has returned to health via diet alone, and his own personal health journey.
Dr Nadir Ali's credentials and reputation are world-renowned. He Chairs the Dept of Cardiology at Clear Lake Regional Medical Centre in California, and speaks at leading health conferences on the topic of heart health, LDL Cholesterol, Low Carb diet interventions and Intermittent Fasting.
Personally, he stumbled across the Low Carb way of eating years ago as an avid cyclist that wanted to lose excess weight and perform well. Since then, he advocates for LCHF and IF as a way to address modern diseases associated with metabolic dysfunction.
In this discussion, Nadir helps us understand the old paradigm of heart health and the incorrect demonisation of Saturated Fat and LDL Cholesterol. He educates us on the roles of LDL and Cholesterol in the body, and provides an alternative idea as to how Heart Disease manifests.
We dig into the efficacy and side effects of heart drugs such as statins, and explore the motivations at play that prevent the heart research and science from updating. We then leave you with practicals ways to assess and improve heart and overall health.
This is a must-listen - It’s time to get properly educated on how to keep your heart healthy! Share with those that need to hear this...

#133: Alcohol: the Science, Health & Politics ~Prof. David Nutt
Professor David Nutt joins us for a remarkable deep dive into the history, health effects and our long relationship with Alcohol. This is a fascinating historical, scientific and psychological insight into Alcohol use that you simply won’t hear anywhere else.
Whether you are an occasional drinker, heavy drinker, or a non-drinker, this episode offers you the one-stop education on Alcohol that seems to have skipped us all by… and very much by design it turns out. All delivered in an easy going, compassionate and pragmatic way by Prof Nutt.
This is not a name and shame episode. This is not about vilifying and demonising alcohol use. It’s not an episode that seeks to scare you witless, or to encourage a return to prohibition. Far from it - instead this is about understanding how to get the social and emotional benefits from alcohol whilst being cognisant of the health risks.
Prof David Nutt has definitely earned his stripes to act as an authority on this subject. He’s an english neuro-psycho-pharmacologist currently at the prestigious Imperial College London - specialising in the research of drugs that affect the brain and conditions such as addiction, anxiety, and sleep. He has worked as an advisor to the Ministry of Defence, Department of Health, and the Home Office.
He has published several other marquee studies on the effects of drugs that are being closely leverage the world over, and most recently released the most comprehensive and accessible book on the reality of Alcohol Drinking on Health and Longevity called Drink?: The New Science of Alcohol & Your Health.
This is a must-listen. It’s one of those that you should share with care to your friends and family. We all need to up our understanding of Alcohol, so we can use it wisely for max benefit and managing the risks.

#131: Why Quit Vegetable Oils & The Nutriton-Beauty Connection ~Dr Cate Shanahan
Dr. Cate Shanahan, author of Deep Nutrition, joins us today to talk about the ill effects of PUFA’s, caring for your Connective Tissue, pre and post natal nutrition, and how nutrition effects beauty.
Cate knocked me sideways with her seminal book Deep Nutrition, that introduces you to ideas in nature and human physiology that makes so much sense, but you don’t hear about.
She’s a board certified US Family physician specialising in resolving diet-driven conditions such as obesity, diabetes, chronic fatigue and autoimmune conditions. She has built nutritional programs for LA Lakers and other NBA teams across the US for optimal performance and wellness.
Dr Cate has taken on the David vs Goliath war against Polyunsaturated Fats (PUFA’s), otherwise known as Seed and Vegetable Oils, for their deleterious effects on the human body. We get into why she is so passionate about this fight.
As part of your understanding of what great nutritional health looks like, this episode with Cate is a must-listen, alongside her books listed below.

#130: Top Biohacks, Big Muscles & Longevity Insights ~Kris Gethin
Kris Gethin - world renowned ‘Biohacker’ and former natural Pro Bodybuilder joins us for a fascinating insight into what the edge of self-optimisation and optimising wellness looks like.
Biohacking is a term that is growing in popularity, but still very much a niche idea. In health and wellness circles, it’s an expression of health optimisation with techniques, technology, supplements, nature and medical procedures.
Biohackers can often be considered obsessive, over prioritising the minutia, and over investing into quantification and tech. There is sometimes a sense of wanting to live forever by playing god with technical innovations. But, this is an unfair representation.
Kris Gethin is a shining example of someone who deeply understands wellness and longevity, and invests appropriately for his life priorities and income. Kris is a fellow podcaster, personal trainer, wellness enthusiast, author, and owner of a supplement line and gym academies.
Get an insight into how Kris’ mind works as it relates to optimising health and biohacking, his journey from bodybuilding to optimised wellness, and his fringe biohacking experiments. Most importantly, learn about his most accessible and highest priority biohacks that we should all consider.
