Errata:

At 20:59, when starting the segment involving Dirk Denoyelle, the original audio track had some pretty bad errors at the beginning so I had to re-record the first few seconds and overlay it on to the original recording. This is why it sounds different and somewhat disjointed in terms of flow.

At 21:22, when starting the segment talking about Nathan Sawaya, the same errors were found and I had to do the same.

Want to be smarter, healthier, and more physically fit? Science points to two things - one thing to avoid as much as you can, another thing to do a lot of - that matter the most, not matter who you are or where you're from.

This Episode's Highlights:

The one thing you already know is bad for you but you might not realize you’re having a lot of

And another thing that you also already know that both athletes and the arthritic can do but we maybe don’t appreciate how good it is because we don’t know enough about what it does to us 

And a few other interesting bits here and there that are less purposefully vague than the previous two - like an update on Kaavan the Elephant, the keto diet boosting memory, learning, and helping fight cancer, and more!
