• Danny Roddy | Self Sustenance, Pathology of Stress, Authoritarian Gurus, Ray Peat, Intuition, Diet Identity + more

    Danny Roddy has been independently researching stress, hair loss, and aging since 2007. He authored the best-selling book, HAIR LIKE A FOX: A Bioenergetic View of Pattern Hair Loss, in 2013.


    Danny's content and ability to simplify complicated subjects for his own comprehension and others is often a lifesaver for people who are new to the bioenergetic view of being. Danny is organized, precise and methodical in his approach to the many different subjects and people Ray Peat mentions.


    Dannys deeply involved first hand experience in the health and diet "sphere" make him relatable to people of many different philosophical backgrounds.


    Our conversation in this podcast is very free form and laid back. We catch up on current events and review our life history in context to our shared passion in bioenergetics. Im hoping Danny will join me for a more focused conversation on hair loss and its many implications soon.

  • Hans Amato | Nigella Sativa, Starch + Fiber Problems, Preserving Youth, Liver Health & Stressful Serotonin

    Raised in the Western Cape of South Africa Hans was a complete nature and adrenaline junky. If he wasn’t in school, he was out in the oceanic nature of the Western Cape, jumping and climbing rocks enjoying the freedom away from boarding school. He also loved doing parkour and riding quad, but at the age of 17 weight training became his new obsession. Hans began college at 19 while starting to train more seriously, deciding that it was something he wanted to do lifelong.


    Hans studied anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, biochemistry and nutrition until completing his degree at 22 at the University of Potchefstroom, NWU. But that was only the beginning of his years of studying as he began to develop a much deeper interest in real science and the mechanics of how the body works. Hans and his wife later became involved in Hans’ grandmother and late grandfather’s cosmetic family business. There they gained good company experience and Hans became the company’s lead researcher. Hans also started his first male blog to give training and nutritional advice to men.


    But Hans and his wife soon realized that the family business and cosmetics wasn’t their cup of tea and it wasn’t the type of life they wanted. In the beginning of 2016, Hans and Anya took a big leap of faith and decided to leave the family business and start their own personal business focused on training, nutrition and lifestyle.


    They continue to grow (individually and business-wise) as they expand their knowledge and experience through research and the knowledge of highly experienced (non-mainstream) experts. Today, both Hans and Anya are helping clients around the world to optimize their health through better, healthier and smarter living.


    As founder and CEO of MenElite, Hans now creates step-by-step solutions – from articles and eBooks to coaching and consulting, to education and media. Whether you want to become the complete mental athlete with a flawless brain and nervous system; attain an ideal human body that fires on all cylinders from performance to beauty to hormones and beyond; or achieve true and lasting health, happiness, and longevity; Hans combines intense time-in-the-trenches with ancestral wisdom and modern science to make your dreams a reality.

  • Dr. Ray Peat | Planned Obsolescence, Particulate Matter, The "Green" Reset, Soil, Wilhelm Reich, Social Structure, Digital vs Analog Reality, Morality and much more.

    Dr. Ray Peat has a Ph.D. in Biology from the University of Oregon, with specialization in physiology. The schools he has taught at include: the University of Oregon, Urbana College, Montana State University, National College of Naturopathic Medicine, Universidad Veracruzana, the Universidad Autonoma del Estado de Mexico, and Blake College. 


    He started his work with progesterone and related hormones in 1968. In papers in Physiological Chemistry and Physics (1971 and 1972) and in his dissertation (University of Oregon, 1972), he outlined his ideas regarding progesterone, and the hormones closely related to it, as protectors of the body's structure and energy against the harmful effects of estrogen, radiation, stress, and lack of oxygen.

  • Thaddeus Owen | EMF Mitigation, Light Hygiene, Technocrats, Hormones, Orgone Energy & Geopathic Stress

    Thaddeus Owen was recently listed as one of the top biohacking influencers on Instagram. After serving his time in Engineering school and playing the role of corporate employee for large manufacturers like Procter & Gamble and various pharmaceutical companies, he said enough. He started working for his Master’s in Holistic Nutrition and started down the path of achieving true health by supporting his body and mind. He used practices that are not talked about by mainstream media and family doctors.


    Studying Qigong, Biohacking, and more conspiracy theories than many have ever heard of brought him to realize that in many cases, the media is lying to us. "If you want to be optimally healthy you have to study secrets because the best practices are not generally public." says Thaddeus (and we agree). He also found that he had to experiment on himself to find out what really worked.


    His goal is to bring back some of these secrets to share with you.


    He summarizes, "I want you to have optimal health. Most statistics show what it takes to be “average”. We don’t want to be average, we want to be as healthy as humanly possible while we’re on this plane of reality. This is what we’re here to teach you. Information from ancient sages, spiritual masters, health experts, and the latest science thrown in with a bit of the occult (meaning hidden)."
