    Olympic weightlifting - Road to tokyo 2020 with RenDong Chen ft. Leonardo Sucitra

    After a long hiatus (and likely, we will go into another extended break, lol), we are back with a new episode! The first for the year and the last?  Anyways in this episode, we had Ren Dong Chen on the podcast as well as Leonardo Sucitra (as a stand-in for Kedric, who is currently head-deep into his Ph.D. and life duties) to discuss all things weightlifting, specifically on Chne’s experience with being a coach and being part of Team China taking LiJun Chen on his miraculous gold medal run in the Tokyo Olympics.

  2. Obesity: The illusion of choice with James Walsham

    Obesity: The illusion of choice with James Walsham

    In this episode, we speak to James Walsham, a coach in the hypertrophy and health space and a fellow podcaster. Many of you might know him from his own podcast The Hypertrophy Hub, but today we brought him on as a guest to talk about the topic of obesity and whether it is an active choice or not.  The reason for this is that James also works as a health coach alongside other medical professionals, and together he and his team help to create a plan best suited for an individual looking to turn their health around. In this episode, we dove into some of the reasons for obesity, how at times, the industry can be against all of humanity when it comes to living a healthier lifestyle, and whether the choice to be obese is something people can choose to avoid or not.

  3. Philosophy on metaethics with Dr. Terence Cuneo

    Philosophy on metaethics with Dr. Terence Cuneo

    'Are there any actions that are right or wrong?' Metaethics is the study of moral judgment's nature, scope, and meaning. It is one of the three branches of ethics generally studied by philosophers. And as you know, our residential philosopher Kedric loves to spend his limited free time exploring the rabbit holes of philosophy.  In today's episode, alongside Dr. Terence Cuneo, we look to explore the essence of morals. Through the lens of a philosopher, what does it mean to have moral concepts indeed, the nature of morality, and do we truly have one true morality?

    Rapid weight cutting strategies for the powerlifter With Jayne Jones

    In this episode, we allowed Kedric to take a backseat (for the most part) while we dive deep into the topic of weight cutting strategies with Jayne Jones . Jayne is an RD in Irland and is on the Irish National Team for the 2021 IPF worlds. We spoke about some of her favorite strategies to weight cut without losing strength, what are some dos and donts, and most importantly, why we need to cut weight in powerlifting.

  5. Faith In A Secular Age With Kazu Saito

    Faith In A Secular Age With Kazu Saito

    Good day team. We had taken a little bit of a hiatus in the past month as its that time of the year when new ventures and avenues are being experienced. Hence we do apologize for the lack of content in Feb! But we are back, and in this episode, we speak to Kazu. Apart from his glorious powerlifting accolades, Kazu is also a man of faith, something that in today's younger generation is slowly beginning to dwindle. We covered a range of topics about religion, from his first encounter to how he sees faith as a daily driver for him as he graduates from Uni into working life.

    Covid 19 -The truth, the bad and the future with Dr. Jay Bhattacharya

    Hey there, first off, Happy New Year, and I hope you all had a great break. We have a great episode today to kick off the year 2022, especially with our previous conversations on Covid and how we agree that Covid will likely be endemic. In this episode, we talk to Dr. Jay Bhattacharya. For those unfamiliar with his work (and we don't blame you), he is one of the great men behind the works of many previous virus outbreaks like H1N1 and the more recent Covid pandemic. His reputation speaks for himself, and we were very honored to have him on this episode to talk about all things Covid. From current health policies to the mortality and the severity of Covid, we cover it all in this highly compelling episode.

    2021 Year End Review

    LAST EPISODE for the year  Man, what a year it has been. From starting this podcast earlier in the year, we did 15 episodes! What a ride it has been, and we look forward to doing more next year. In this episode, we speak about what we learned throughout the year, both from the podcast and personal, some goals for next year, and what we would love to see differently. It has been a massive year for us all, with many changes coming our way going into next year, and we sincerely thank you, dear supporter, for being a start and listening in. Much love from the Kwans (again, we are not related), and see you in 2022! @kedricts.rf @choong_sckreyz⁠
