    Can AI Be Your Nutritionist? GLP-1s and Weight Health with Ashley Koff

    Every bad thing you’ve heard about GLP-1s may be true, and so is everything you’ve been told about calories in, calories out. Ashley Koff says both miss the real problem. Jeff sits down with Ashley Koff, RD, a registered dietitian and author of Your Best Shot, to talk about GLP-1s, weight health, and whether AI can ever be as curious as a good practitioner. Jeff shares what happened when he started low-dose tirzepatide and his appetite disappeared overnight. Why "weight loss" can include bone, muscle, hair and testosterone, and what Ashley measures instead The first two days after a weekly shot: why she moves fiber later in the week and leans on soups and smoothies Why feeling no hunger at all on a GLP-1 can be a sign the dose is wrong Why calories are "only potential energy" until digestion turns them into something usable How Jeff used AI to keep five specialists on the same page for his father, and why Ashley built her own AI nutritionist This episode is for anyone who started a GLP-1 and can barely eat, or who's getting textbook nutrition answers that don't fit their body. Ashley's book Your Best Shot is available now. This episode was made possible by: BIOptimizers: Go to www.bioptimizers.com/onecommune and use code ONECOMMUNE for 15% off your order.

    Late for Pickup: Watching Lolli Dance Alone to Debussy (Dispatch 19)

    Running late to pick Lolli up from dance rehearsal, Jeff arrives to find the studio empty except for his daughter, dancing alone to Debussy's Rêverie. Instead of going in, he stays outside the plate-glass window and watches. In this episode, Jeff traces those few unguarded minutes: a kid moving like water, and a father reaching for Kabbalah, Alan Watts, and the Japanese art of kintsugi to explain why it felt like watching something broken get put back together. Then she catches his eye, and the dance changes. Flow becomes performance, and Jeff is left with a question every parent eventually meets: what does it cost our kids to dance for someone they want to make proud? This is the 19th episode of Diaries of a Dance Dad, an audio memoir series in Jeff's own words. It spans the full arc of parenthood: the inhale of birth and early chaos, the grind of no sleep and travel with kids, the gut-punches of failure, and the slow exhale of letting go.

    Why You Keep Dating the Same Person with Sabrina Zohar

    At 25, Sabrina Zohar sent a man she barely knew 173 unanswered text messages from a friend's bathroom floor. Years later, she realized she was never in love with him. She was in love with being chosen. In this episode, Jeff sits down with Sabrina Zohar, relationship coach, host of The Sabrina Zohar Show, and author of the new book Why Am I Like This?, to trace how childhood wiring shows up in who we date, how we fight, and why healthy love can feel boring at first. How anxious, avoidant, and disorganized attachment styles form, and why they're more fluid than social media suggests Repetition compulsion and why you keep dating the same type of person Why chemistry doesn't mean compatibility, and why money, kids, and shared life goals matter more A word-for-word script for talking to your partner about a trigger Why green flags can feel uncomfortable, and how corrective experiences change what feels safe This episode is for anyone who keeps repeating the same relationship pattern and wants to understand where it comes from.

    Christmess: The Morning I Learned My Mother Was Leaving (Dispatch 18)

    "Well, if you're going to leave in June anyways, you might as well leave now!" Thirteen-year-old Jeff heard it from the stairs on Christmas morning, with his little brother beside him in footed pajamas.In this episode, Jeff tells the story of the holiday his parents' marriage broke open: the Hail Mary trip to Brazil, the presents opened quietly with Gramma, and the night Eric slept in his bed.

It spans the full arc of parenthood: the inhale of birth and early chaos, the grind of no sleep and travel with kids, the gut-punches of failure, and the slow exhale of letting go.

    Zach Bush on AI, Death and Biological Elegance

    When Jeff's father entered hospice, Jeff showed up with a plan to fix him. What actually healed them was jazz, touch, and surrender. In this episode, recorded live at The Kinn in Los Angeles, Jeff sits down with Dr. Zach Bush, a triple board-certified physician in internal medicine, endocrinology, and hospice care. They explore his new book, Biological Elegance, which unfolds through a dialogue with AI. They get into the difference between curing and healing, why Zach believes there's no machine behind AI at all, and why the real danger isn't artificial intelligence but humans acting like machines. Why humming is one of the most powerful ways to relieve acute pain, a lesson Zach learned from a hospice nurse Jeff's story of his father's final week in hospice, and the difference between curing and healing Zach's case that AI isn't a machine at all, and that the real danger is humans acting like machines The "false solutions" of biohacking, crypto, and the conscious movement The curative questions Zach believes medicine should be asking: where's your original wound, and what's your deepest fear? This episode is for anyone who has sat at a loved one's bedside, feels uneasy about AI, or suspects that healing means more than fixing symptoms. Zach's new book, Biological Elegance: Unwitting the Devil, is available at zachbushmd.com.

    Dad, I Got My Period: Getting a Little Better at Fatherhood (Dispatch 17)

    The first rule of the dance studio parking lot: always yield to the minivan. Hell hath no fury like a dance mom scorned.In this episode, Jeff plays a round of Frogger through stray shopping carts and bite-sized ballerinas to pick up Micah from rehearsal. Somewhere between the curb and Marshalls, she says it as casually as checking the weather: "Dad, I got my period." What follows is a quick run of limbic misfires, from a panicked thought of urgent care to an awkward offer to swing by CVS, until her reply stops him cold: "I just wanted you to know." It's a funny, tender look at raising daughters without shame, and the five seconds Jeff counts among his proudest as a father.This is the seventeenth episode of Diaries of a Dance Dad, an audio memoir series in Jeff's own words. It spans the full arc of parenthood: the inhale of birth and early chaos, the grind of no sleep and travel with kids, the gut-punches of failure, and the slow exhale of letting go.This episode was made possible by: Vivobarefoot: Try Vivobarefoot risk-free with a 100-day return guarantee, and get 20% off your order at ⁠vivobarefoot.com/commune⁠.

    Love Is Freedom: Yung Pueblo on Lasting Relationships

    What if love isn't about sacrifice and limitation, but is actually the thing that sets you free? In this episode, Jeff sits down with Diego Perez, the #1 New York Times bestselling author and meditator known as Yung Pueblo, to talk about his book How to Love Better. Diego shares how hitting rock bottom sent him from self-deception toward self-love, and how thousands of hours in silent Vipassana retreats reshaped the way he shows up for his wife, Sara. Drawing on Buddhist ideas like impermanence and the Brahmaviharas, they explore what it takes to build a relationship that feels less like a limitation and more like a home. Why self-love begins with radical honesty A simple morning habit that heads off unnecessary fights What shifts when you stop arguing to win The subtle line between clinging and closeness Why commitment might be the most liberating thing in your life This episode is for anyone who wants a relationship rooted in understanding rather than control, and for anyone curious how a meditation practice can change the way they love. Diego's new book, Journey: The Year That Changes Everything, a year of daily reflections on self-awareness and inner peace, is out Nov 10. Originally released in 2025.

    A Steady Hand on the Wheel: What My Daughter Taught Me About Safety (Dispatch 16)

    Jeff Krasno spent years driving his family through the most terrifying stretch of I-95 there is: the dark part after New Haven. His daughter remembers it as the safest she ever felt. In this episode, Jeff recounts the family's white-knuckle night drives to a Connecticut cottage — deer carcasses, wobbly 18-wheelers, and a car full of sleeping kids lulled out by Schuyler's New Yorker readings — and the moment nearly 20 years later when his daughter's heartfelt dinner-table tribute gets undercut by his own internal monologue about exactly how he was driving. This is the sixteenth episode of Diaries of a Dance Dad, an audio memoir series in Jeff's own words. It spans the full arc of parenthood: the inhale of birth and early chaos, the grind of no sleep and travel with kids, the gut-punches of failure, and the slow exhale of letting go.
