163: The Huberman Paradox (w/Jonathan Jarry)

Neuroscientist Andrew Huberman has become one of the most popular science podcasters in the world. His regular two- to four-hour episodes feature a dizzying assault of information on topics like physical and mental fitness, psychedelics, hair loss, brain optimization, and a host of other topics, sometimes with expert guests, while at other times he goes solo. And many of these episodes are super informative and inspirational.  And yet, at times it seems like Huberman is sacrificing quality for quantity. This week, we look at three instances in which Andrew Huberman appears to be speaking outside of his lane, or perhaps overhyping supplements for his own benefit, and we want to know what else is being sacrificed along the way. McGill Office for Science and Society science communicator, Jonathan Jarry, joins the discussion.Show NotesAndrew Huberman Has Supplements on the Brain How Podcaster Andrew Huberman Got America to Care About Science The Real-Life Diet of Andrew Huberman, Who Switches to Red Party Lights After Dark The Huberman Effect NEUROSCIENTIST: This Habit Makes You UGLY | Andrew Huberman Paul Ingraham critique of Huberman “Evidence-Based Medicine” vs Science-Based Medicine Dave Asprey’s Use of PED’s New York Times review of Tim Ferris’s book 4-Hour Body Michelle Wong’s query about sunscreen crossing blood-brain barrier Neuroscientist Asaf Weisman’s opinion on Huberman Sports Scientist Matt Stranberg opinion on Huberman “Health Nerd” Gideon Meyer-Katz on misrepresented “cold-plunge” paper Learn more about your ad choices.
