Listen Later

Queue Points takes a rhythmic detour from music history to explore the science of wellness with special guest Johnny Dickson of "No Lab Coat Required." In this enlightening conversation, Johnny breaks down complex health concepts into accessible insights about nutrition, fitness, and sustainable lifestyle changes. As Black men navigate cultural food traditions, economic barriers, and conflicting health information, Johnny offers practical strategies for making healthier choices without sacrificing joy or cultural connection. Just as Queue Points drops the needle on Black music history, this episode drops knowledge on how Black men can compose a healthier future through informed, balanced choices.

Johnny Dickson Bio

If you give it some thought, what one knows of their health is nearly all anecdote. The daily health choices we make come down to things we’ve “heard” or from the influence of marketing. In order to know true health, science must be done. The problem: science is complicated and exclusive (and a little snobby). No Lab Coat Required is changing that. Serving as the bridge between the world of academia and the public, we break down topics in a way that allows for ample understanding and application in the real world. Upholding integrity and sincerity in research and communication, and having fun.We're a 501(c)(3) non-profit. Education is our end goal.

The host, Johnny Cole Dickson, holds a Bachelor of kinesiology and nutrition and is currently prepping for PhD studies in Anatomy and Cell Biology! For a snack, he enjoys peanuts, unsalted.
