Customer Reviews
IT’S BACK!
I’m so glad to see fresh episodes on this podcast channel; I loved listening to Better Humanology and still replay a lot of the episodes. From great book recommendations to small tips and ticks to being a better human, it was an awesome weekly listen. Now, Jerred is expanding the better human reach by exploring business, family, and still dabbling in fitness. Love the new content, and can’t wait to see fresh episodes at the top of my library every Thursday.
I really miss the active production of this podcast
Jerred Moon is a humble but persistent fitness enabler. Meaning, he pursues the truth via professionals in their respective fields. He’s not afraid to tell anyone he doesn’t know something, but we always benefit from his ignorance when allowing the professionals he usually hosts on this podcast speak in depth on the subjects and questions asked during everyone of these episodes.
New format
I’ve been listening for a little over a year and I must say that I love the new format. I really enjoy the “why” behind what we are doing. I’ve heard so much bro science over the years that it’s nice to hear legitimate studies that help drive the programming to its fullest potential.
Here for the long haul.
