For decades, Cal steered clear of pharmaceuticals. But after assembling a new team of doctors and stepping on the scale and noticing a few extra pounds, he heard the same three letters over and over: GLP. These new drugs—GLP- 1s—aren't just helping people shed pounds. They're helping snuff out the brain's hijacked hunger signals, replacing the relentless "more, more, more" with something almost revolutionary: "less is enough." In this episode, Cal explores what happens when we hand over the mic to a new control tower—one that rewrites the script our brains have been stuck on for far too long. A candid journey. A scientific shift. And the first time Cal actually wonders if he can stop after one bite of pizza.
