In this episode, I sit down with Vlad, aka BigWaterGuy, to talk all things spearfishing, freediving, wild seafood and life in the ocean.

Vlad shares some of his craziest experiences in the water — coming face-to-face with a massive great white off the Oregon coast, spearfishing for salmon around grizzly bears in Alaska, swimming with an orca in Mexico and hunting giant tuna.

We also get into how to get started with freediving and spearfishing, improving your breath hold, staying calm underwater, raw seafood, mercury, parasites, the best fish to eat and why spending more time in the ocean can have such a positive impact on your mind and body.

In this episode of Santa Cruz Medicinals Radio, I sit down with Dr. Abud Bakri to discuss peptides, longevity, injury recovery, sleep, hormones, mitochondrial health, fertility, and the future of medicine.

We begin by breaking down my current ACL recovery protocol, including BPC-157, TB-500, GHK-Cu, Tesamorelin, and growth hormone support. Dr. Bakri explains how these compounds may influence healing, recovery, and performance while also discussing the current regulatory landscape surrounding peptides and where the industry may be heading.

We also dive into Retatrutide, GLP-1 medications, muscle loss during weight loss, bio-regulators, circadian rhythm, sleep optimization, and some of the fascinating longevity research coming out of Russia.

Dr. Bakri explains Epitalon, Pinealon, thymus health, mitochondrial function, and why simple habits like sunlight, sleep, and stress management still play a huge role in long-term health.

Later in the episode, we discuss fertility, pregnancy, epigenetics, growth hormone use in children, genetic screening, the future of designer babies, and the ethical questions surrounding modern medicine and human optimization.

We also cover blood work, hormone testing, nervous system regulation, HRV, low testosterone in young men, anxiety, stress, and the health challenges facing younger generations today.

As always, this conversation is intended for educational purposes only and should not be considered medical advice. If you're interested in recovery, longevity, peptides, hormones, sleep, mitochondrial health, or optimizing your health, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

In this episode of Santa Cruz Medicinals Radio, I sit down with Dr. Clay Moss to talk about where modern medicine is heading and why I think so many people are starting to question the traditional healthcare model.

We dive deep into my ACL recovery and the experiment I'm running with regenerative medicine, including PRP, peptides, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, red light therapy, and other cutting-edge approaches to healing. We also discuss stem cells, the future of longevity medicine, and why preventative healthcare needs to become the focus instead of simply treating symptoms.

We also break down the blood tests that I think everyone should know about, the supplements Dr. Clay takes every day, and how AI could completely change the way people understand and optimize their health.If you're interested in injury recovery, functional medicine, performance, or simply taking better control of your health, this conversation is packed with practical takeaways and ideas that could change the way you think about medicine.

In this episode, I sit down with Michael Smoak (Higher Up) to break down what actually matters when it comes to health, fitness, and life!

We talk about marathon training, why most people are focusing on the wrong things, and the “big rocks” that will genuinely change your health - not the stuff you see all over social media.

We also get into cancel culture, internet hate, politics, public speaking and why nuance doesn’t go viral… but matters more than ever.

In this episode of Santa Cruz Medicinals Radio, I’m joined by Dr. Hotch to break down what really happens when metabolic health goes sideways - from insulin resistance and diabetic foot complications to why so many “healthy-looking” guys still have terrible labs.

We also get into peptides, TRT, and why most “optimization” is overrated if you’re not nailing the basics (whole foods, lifting, sunlight, sleep, stress).

Plus: seed oils, tanning peptides, growth hormone, bloodwork (what’s worth testing vs what’s noise), and a raw, honest convo on modern men’s mental health, dopamine/serotonin, and why doing hard things still matters.
