    EP. 34 / AI BUBBLE. UFC. RIO NEURALINK.

    What if the AI boom is heading for the same catastrophic crash as the 2008 housing market? In this explosive episode, Henry breaks down why he's betting against artificial intelligence, drawing chilling parallels between today's tech frenzy and the financial disaster that blindsided millions. We dive deep into how everyone's becoming "AI technicians" regardless of their actual profession, and whether this technological revolution is sustainable progress or just elaborate hype destined to collapse. The conversation gets heated as we dissect the pathetic state of UFC's heavyweight division and what it desperately needs to reclaim its former glory. From lackluster performances to missing star power, we explore why the division that once defined mixed martial arts has lost its way and how it can get back on track. But things take a dark turn as we venture into Jeffrey Epstein conspiracy territory, examining new evidence and questioning whether his death was really suicide or something far more sinister. The discussion becomes increasingly unsettling as we explore the web of powerful connections and unanswered questions surrounding one of the most controversial cases in recent history. We also tackle the disturbing implications of brain implants and Neuralink technology – are we crossing a line from human enhancement to losing our humanity entirely? Plus, we discuss Cain Velasquez's controversial prison sentence for taking justice into his own hands to defend his daughter, raising questions about parental protection versus vigilante justice. This episode fearlessly tackles the controversial topics everyone's thinking about but afraid to discuss openly. From technological dystopia to sports disappointments to conspiracy theories that make you question everything – we're covering it all with no filter and no apologies.

    EP. 33 / CREATINE. OVERTRAINING. RIO MARATHON.

    We kick things off with the creatine experiment — week two updates on hydration struggles and the science behind supplementation. From there we dive into overtraining and how your autonomic nervous system gets stuck in fight-or-flight mode when you push too hard. The conversation shifts to an ambitious idea: signing up for a marathon in Rio de Janeiro and whether to document the whole training journey. We talk gym culture, working out with partners, running community events, and the Chris Kyle Memorial. Later, the discussion gets deep — faith, Christianity, the meaning of sacrifice, and putting human knowledge in perspective. We wrap up touching on MMA and Volk vs Lopez.
