The Secret to Judd Apatow’s Success is... Self Help?

Is self-help real or nonsense? Jason and Peter have always been skeptical of the ability for self-help books and seminars to impact and improve a person’s life…they even delved into the comedic aspects of the self-help world with their 2001 ABC sitcom “Bob Patterson.” So, when they discovered that Judd Apatow…uber successful screenwriter, producer, noted comedian, author and director of a myriad of cultural-defining comedies such as The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Knocked Up, This is 40, Funny People, Trainwreck and The King of Staten Island was a bit obsessed with the self-help genre… they needed to find out why!

How Judd’s parent’s constant fighting enabled him to become a good producer & comedian.

Shark Tank’s KINDest Shark

To be successful in business you need to be tough, unrelenting, ruthless…a shark, right? That’s why one of the most successful shows about business is called, “Shark Tank”! But is there a kinder way to dominate the corporate world? Daniel Lubetzky created his self-made-multi-billions with one overriding agenda – to foster connection, understanding and most importantly, to promote kindness between people who are in conflict. Best known as the founder of KIND Snacks…in this episode he discusses how he almost made a $200 million dollar mistake, what it took to make Kind a successful brand, and his many charitable businesses, where his focus is empowering people to work across social divides, and to create real and lasting relationships. AND…this kind man, is also the newest member of NBC’s, Shark Tank. Really no really! *** IN THIS EPISODE: How a billionaire deals with time management…and…ADHD! The mistakes that were integral to Danny’s immense success. KIND Bars unexpected power to unleash kindness. How a soon-to-be billionaire learned when to trust his instincts (and when not to). Promoting understanding by dismantling the “us vs. them” and “oppressor/victim” frameworks. What attracted a do-gooder to become a Shark? What makes a Shark Tank idea investable? HINT: It’s not the product. If divisive messages flourish on Mainstream Media, social media and in politics…how do you create a positive message that cuts through? Hate and anger fuel online engagement …can humor trump those emotions? The one thing Jason disagrees with Daniel on.

What Really Happens When We Die - What One Man Saw on the Other Side

A violent undiagnosed aneurysm should have killed Sebastian Junger, a war reporter, a best-selling author, and an Academy Award winning documentarian. Junger came as close as anyone we know to dying, but he returned from the abyss and reveals what it was like. For years Jason and Peter have heard about so-called NDE’s – near-death experiences where the clinically dead - miraculously resuscitated - come back to life with eerily familiar stories. Whether it’s long-dead relatives speaking to them from the afterlife, or encountering an enormous tunnel, illuminated by a brilliant, welcoming light…. are these stories evidence of a “Great Beyond”, or simply wild spasms of a dying brain? After Junger’s NDE, he launched an investigation and uncovered a possible third answer that may expand our understanding of the universe itself. Really, no really. *** IN THIS EPISODE: The visions he saw that changed his conception of the universe. Who encouraged him toward the void? What causes similar near-death experiences… God or spasms of a dying brain? Panpsychism: A scientific explanation of a possible and universal post-life existence. Anxiety, derealization & depression, why Sebastian Junger doubted he was alive. He was an atheist…now? Jason and Peter share their out of body experiences.

The Next Big Thing – Medieval Sports!

There is a growing phenomenon in the world of extreme fighting you might not be aware of. Of course there’s boxing, wrestling and mixed martial arts… but for people who want something more dangerous, more brutal…a sport that affords an opportunity to hit…or be hit with a sword, a mace, or even a battle axe - there’s now…Medieval Fighting! Really, no really! Jason and Peter wondered why seemingly average Joes would spend thousands of dollars on armor and 14th century weaponry and travel the globe for an opportunity to fight in this brutal way. So, they turned to Simon Rohrich, a multiple world champion and expert in Medieval Fighting. By day, Simon is an Arizona based inventor and technology consultant… but his other persona is, Baron Josef Donnerbauch, who is proficient in staff, axe and longsword armored combat, close quarters fighting, and grappling. He discusses the growing appeal of Medieval Fighting, how it may help war veterans suffering from PTSD, and what it felt like to have a large axe imbedded in his skull! *** IN THIS EPISODE: What exactly is Medieval Fighting and what are the rules? Rumors of infiltration by the Russian mob. Prize money? How protective is the hardened steel armor? That time an axe ended up lodged in Simon’s skull. What draws someone to this sport? Spoiler Alert: Trauma awaits ye! How this sport may help war veterans dealing with PTSD.

The Power of Meat: Keto & Carnivore Diets and the Doctor Who Believes in Them!

In 2020 "keto" was the most Googled food-related topic in the world. More than 23 million Americans have been on the ketogenic diet, yet many of the foods on the keto diet have been linked to heart disease, stroke, and other illnesses. So…is the ketogenic diet harming us or leading us to a healthy, buttery, red meat “promised land”? In this episode we attempt to get the answer. Really, no really! Jason and to a lesser extent Peter have struggled with weight their entire lives. Jason can personally attest to his individual success/fail ratio on a multitude of diets AND his previous flirtation with the keto diet… which left him weighing less but with kidney stones and gout! Dr. Ken Berry, a board-certified family physician, speaker and author based near Nashville, Tennessee whose focus is on the chronic diseases caused by the Standard American Diet and Lifestyle joins Jason and Peter to explain the benefits and to discuss the potential issues with the keto diet and its relationship to type 2 Diabetes, chronic inflammation, dementia and …keto crotch! IN THIS EPISODE: Why keto may be the diet for almost everybody. Can the Keto diet help: obesity – hypertension - metabolic syndrome - fatty liver - heart disease – hypertension - type 1 or 2 diabetes - pre-diabetes? Bad breath? Keto flu? Odorless flatulence? Who shouldn’t try the keto diet. Eggs every day? Is veganism unhealthy? What happens when a carnivore dieter eats cake? Calories don’t matter. Really? Ozempic, Wegovy – enemies or part of the healing process? Keto cookies, keto supplements, keto bread, keto shakes – STAY AWAY!!!! Google-heim: Is Keto Crotch real…we investigate! *** FOLLOW DR.

Crowdsourcing Creativity for Toy & Game Design

Many industries, including toy and game makers, are increasingly depending on crowdsourcing for fresh ideas and to help decide what products to make. Outsourcing creativity to the masses can offer valuable feedback… but that data can also be misinterpreted, misunderstood or provide just-plain-bogus ideas. The annual toy business in the United States is a $100 billion-dollar industry. It’s by far the biggest toy market in the world, but apparently the “titans of toys” are out of ideas. So now, their attitude about creating new “stuff” has shifted to an attitude of – you know what - you do it! Really, no really! To breakdown the inner workings of today’s toy and game world, Jason and Peter turned to an old friend, David Fuhrer who has created and licensed more than 300 toys, games, and household products, generating retail sales of over $1 billion dollars. These include iconic products such as Nerf Vortex Football, Aqua Doodle, Twisty Petz, Guitar Hero Air Guitar, Bounce Around Tigger, Hershey’s S’mores Maker, and more. AND…he’s also the Guinness World Record holder for being the fastest backwards talker. Really, no Really. *** IN THIS EPISODE: 24 toy companies rejected one of the best-selling toys! How does an idea become a product, solve an everyday problem or innovate a classic? In 2024 is it possible to successfully pitch a Beanie Baby-like idea? The billion-dollar idea for a Tailor Swift product. The surprising new trends in toys and games. Why physical games and puzzles have made a comeback. How do crowd sourced ideas pay off for the idea creators? How David’s “backward talking” launched a career. We challenged David to translate classic Seinfeld lines…backwards. The deadliest toys ever put on the market!

Microplastics Exposed: What Consumer Reports Found in Our Food & Water Supply

We now know that microplastics are literally everywhere! In our water, in our food, even in the organs of wild animals - found in the most remote places on Earth! But wait! Now scientists are discovering that there are even smaller fragments, called nanoplastic…so small… we consume them, potentially, with every breath we take. Really, no really! These tiny particles and the chemicals that make plastics have been found in our brains, our lungs, kidneys, liver…even in men’s penises. Obviously, Jason and Peter had questions; so, they turned to the man who tests the levels of microplastics in the foods we buy and eat, Dr. James Rogers. He is the Director of Food Safety Research and Testing at Consumer Reports. He is responsible for leading the food safety and sustainability operations of the organization, including food testing, data analysis, and risk and safety assessments. As acting head of Product Safety Testing, he also oversees the team that assesses safe operation and use of consumer products. *** IN THIS EPISODE: Don’t wash your chicken! (Unless you own a hazmat suit.) Blowing things up, dropping them, smashing them! What’s it really like in the Consumer Reports testing lab? Ingesting microplastics, what are the effects on the body? Why you should rethink microwaving your food in plastic containers. Hidden issues that complicate ending our dependence on plastics. What CR found when they tested 85 commonly purchased foods for plastic contamination. Cut these foods from your diet to reduce phthalate consumption. Why are brominated vegetable oil, potassium bromate, propylparaben, red die number 3, titanium dioxide – all legal if known to be detrimental to our health? What must consumers do to demand safer food? Google-heim: How much do you know about recycling? Take our quiz to find out! *** FOLLOW JAMES: Consumer Reports website - www.consumerreports.org LinkedIN – James E.

I am a huge fan of this podcast because Jason and Peter always mix in humor with providing information on really interesting topics. But I just listened to the episode on forgiveness and it really blew my mind. Excellent episode with thoughtful questions. It really has shifted my perspective and I plan to do more research on the International Forgiveness Institute. Thank you for always making such a great show!
