    Week In Review: ‘80s/’90s Nostalgia, Simpler Times, and the Luxuries We Took for Granted

    Weekend Review: ‘80s/’90s Nostalgia, Simpler Times, and the Luxuries We Took for Granted Jason Wright reflects on nostalgia for the ’80s and ’90s, noting that older music is popular again and arguing that life felt simpler before today’s intense political division. He cites a Vanilla Ice interview about performers dropping out of a White House 250-year celebration over Trump and praises Ice’s wish to return to a fun, non-political era. Using a BuzzFeed list about “luxuries” from the ’80s, Jason recalls special-occasion restaurant meals (like Red Lobster), traveling to another town just to go to McDonald’s, long-distance phone charges, black-and-white TVs, small servings of orange juice, motel stays and road trips with coolers and roadside picnics, watching MTV only while traveling, wall-to-wall carpeting, real butter, and having your own bedroom. He shares family trip mishaps and vivid music memories, and invites listeners to share their own childhood luxuries and experiences. 00:00 Welcome and Nostalgia 00:21 Music Then and Now 01:54 Politics Took Over 02:37 Vanilla Ice on Fun 05:30 No More Rock Bands 07:11 BuzzFeed Luxury List 08:37 Eating Out Was Special 09:24 McDonalds Road Trip 10:29 Hand Me Downs Story 13:51 Long Distance and TV 15:30 Travel Motels MTV 19:55 Flights and Road Trips 23:22 More Old Luxuries 24:09 Kids Take It For Granted 25:45 Simplicity and Memories 28:52 Summer Memory Lane 31:06 Closing and Comments

    Week In Review-Get Your Bloodwork Done, Down Regulate Dopamine, Smoking Weed: Good or Bad?

    Week in Review: Comprehensive Health Testing, Dopamine in an Age of Abundance, and Marijuana Reclassification Concerns Jason Wright opens with reflections on how fast the year is going and a personal tradition of watching The Holiday on June 25, then shares a clip from his conversation with John Goldman, founder of Rebel Health, about how comprehensive functional-medicine testing (DEXA, VO2 max, A1C and other labs) revealed Goldman was pre-diabetic with visceral fat, fatty liver disease, and other risk markers, prompting Wright to urge listeners to get thorough testing beyond standard annual checkups. He next introduces researcher Anna Lembke on dopamine, explaining that brains wired for survival struggle in modern overabundance, leading to down-regulation of feel-good neurotransmitters and the need to intentionally seek discomfort and reduce consumption. After a sponsor message for Authentic Health, Wright discusses a Wall Street Journal opinion on the Trump administration’s move to reclassify marijuana to Schedule 3, citing a UC San Diego study of 11,000 adolescents linking pot use to impaired brain development, and argues that weed can hinder self-improvement and widen outcome gaps. 00:00 Welcome and Time Flies 01:03 Rebel Health Origin Story 02:14 Testing and Knowing Your Numbers 04:50 John Goldman Health Wake Up 06:59 Dopamine and Modern Abundance 09:37 Seek Discomfort for Balance 11:26 Authentic Health Sponsor Break 12:21 Marijuana Reclassification Debate 16:20 Final Thoughts and Sign Off

    Are You Too Fat? Friday Week In Review

    Week in Review: Fat, Exercise Snacks, and Outsourcing Your Brain to Tech Jason Wright introduces the first Week in Review format, sharing clips and takeaways from recent conversations. From Dr. Jerry Nixon, he emphasizes that excess body fat is an active, harmful gland linked to inflammation, atherosclerosis, cancer, dementia, heart disease, bone and joint degeneration, and that Americans often live long lives with chronic disease. From Dr. Rhonda Patrick, he highlights “exercise snacks,” including structured vigorous bursts (about 1–10 minutes, reaching ~80–85% max heart rate) and unstructured vigorous intermittent lifestyle activity like fast stair climbs or brisk tasks; cited VPA research suggests 1–2 minute bouts three times daily are associated with roughly 50% lower all-cause and cardiovascular mortality and 40% lower cancer mortality, even in self-identified non-exercisers. He also promotes Authentic Health’s “foundational stack” and discusses a clip with Arthur Brooks on Cal Newport’s podcast about technology’s limits in solving complex human needs and how algorithmic tools can worsen loneliness. 00:00 Welcome and Format 02:07 Dr Jerry Nixon Clip 04:14 Exercise Snacks Intro 05:14 Rhonda Patrick Explains 05:56 Supplement Cabinet Story 08:04 Authentic Health Sponsor 10:35 More Snack Examples 13:27 Tech and Brain Health 15:22 Arthur Brooks on Phones 18:27 Wrap Up and Feedback 19:17 Credits and Subscribe
