The Truth About Mold in Your Coffee ft. Caleb Sloop, Founder of Seek

Over 80% of commercial coffee contains traces of mold and mycotoxins. The headaches, the stomach aches, the brain fog you blame on caffeine? It might be something else entirely. Caleb Sloop survived a rare stage 4 cancer diagnosis at age 2, competed in gymnastics for 14 years with one eye, and built Seek Coffee as a teenager after watching his mom suffer through chronic illness worsened by conventional coffee. In this conversation, he breaks down the coffee industry's dirty secret, why the US has no real regulatory standard for contamination, and what it actually takes to make a clean cup. If you care about what goes into your body — this one's worth your time. 👇 Episode Sponsors👇 amp | This smart fitness device is reinventing how we workout at home.

From $80M Exit to Reversing His Biological Age by 15 Years | Tyler Smith, Founder of Hundred Health

Tyler Smith built and sold SkySlope — the dominant real estate SaaS platform used in two-thirds of all North American transactions — then spent years investing in the longevity space before realizing the same gap kept showing up everywhere: great data, no action plan.When his own biological age test came back at 47 (at age 39), he went all in. Elite doctors. Deep lab work. Sleep optimization. Strength training. A complete reset. He reversed his biological age by 15 years — and then built Hundred Health so that level of care doesn't require a fortune to access.We dive into the 100-day protocol and why habit science says 100 days is the right window, why the annual physical is fundamentally broken, what it means to democratize elite healthcare, and what Tyler actually does every day to optimize his own performance and longevity. 👇 Episode Sponsors👇 amp | This smart fitness device is reinventing how we workout at home.
