Tim Ferriss: The 4-Hour Chef, Meditation, and Eating Crickets

Tim Ferriss is a man of many talents, as well as a 3 time new york times bestseller with The Four-Hour Workweek, The Four-Hour Body, and now the brand-spankin' new Four Hour Chef. We spent most of the show goofing off, but Tim drops a ton of truth bombs so listen-up. You guys will dig this one. Quick note: I just got back from speaking at Dave Asprey’s biohacking conference in San Francisco. Thanks so much to you folks who came up to say "hi." I couldn’t believe how many listeners made the trip from all corners of the world. I might just have to make that trip to speak in Australia soon... :)

Dave Asprey: Bulletproof Diet, Smart Drugs, and Guacamole

Back again is the king of biohacking, Dave Asprey, the Bulletproof Executive. Since Dave was last on my show, Bulletproof coffee has blown up, Dave's churned out a few more books, and he's put together a biohacking conference in San Francisco. Not too shabby for a few month's work. I'll be presenting on how to improve mental performance with music (following-up on my first book, The Musical Brain). If you'd like to come biohack with the coolest toys nerds like us have ever seen, check out the biohacking conference here. In today's show, Dave and I cover: How you can improve your mental performance with smart drugs (nootropics) The surprising foods Abel’s immune system does not tolerate according to the Mediator Release Test Why Bulletproof Coffee is brain food How the Bulletproof Diet reduces exposure to inflammatory toxins And why eating sushi – with the rice – dipped in a big tub of guacamole and covered in salt is a great idea

Paul Jaminet: Safe Starches, Fecal Transplants, and Good News for Wine Lovers

Today's show is with the brilliant Paul Jaminet, author of The Perfect Health Diet and perfecthealthdiet.com. After having Paul on the show a few months ago, I was happy to touch upon some of the cheekier topics this time around, including the health benefits of drinking, why eating white rice won't kill you, and, of course, fecal transplants. Now, if I had to recommend one book on optimizing your health, The Perfect Health Diet is it. In fact, my nutritional strategy (The Wild Diet) is actually closer to the Perfect Health Diet than it is to Paleo/Primal. This is required reading, folks. Paul's content is tirelessly researched and his nutritional approach is balanced, reasonable, and easy to implement into your life. We cover: How the same diet can cause weight loss AND weight gain The ins and outs of a fecal transplant How most Americans are eating industrial waste products as a staple of their diet Why sipping wine with your steak is good for you
