The Big Inside Christian Matyi, aka "XN", & The Big Inside

What is the most important meal of the day? The Big Inside’s show host Christian Matyi, a/k/a “XN,” is betting he knows what you’re gonna say.

What you’re probably not expecting is how what we think we know about breakfast may not be quite what we assumed. XN dives into the background of this nostalgic meal armed with a pack of nutrition-savvy athletes and the amazing food historian and author Heather Arndt Anderson. What we pull up might make you forget about whether or not breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but instead wonder why you thought that in the first place.

There’s also a cameo by Quinn the Cat, and Christian and Heather get into some Taiwanese rom-coms. All that and more on this episode of The Big Inside.

You’re gonna start looking at what you do every day a little differently after this episode of The Big Inside. Show host Christian Matyi, a/k/a “XN,” is joined by professional viols player Drew Ricciardi, who discusses a very different approach to crating music that also suggests we might want to reconsider how we move.
Are you sure that you’re getting the most out of how you move every day. Are you positive that you are definitely not inadvertently setting yourself up for injury? The answer may lie more in how you understand movement than it lies in the movements themselves.
Drew and XN take a few pitstops along the way, exploring Drew’s very unique joint structure, some analogies to house construction and animal anatomy, and a few other twists and turns as they “tune up” an episode that smashed classical music into athletic prowess.

In the second part of our two-part episode with very special guest Liam O’Donnell, movie director, producer and writer of 2017’s “Beyond Skyline,” show host Christian Matyi (a/k/a “XN”) looks at how personal aesthetics affect what we create in the world.

The first episode of our tenth (we think) season is the first of a two-part episode. We dive into the backstory of movie director, writer, and producer Liam O’Donnell (most known for the 2017 sci fi action flick, “Beyond Skyline.”) and investigate how our are like an alien invader influencing our self-perception.

Happy 2018! To ring in the new year, we pick up a snow shovel, met a French physicist from 200 years ago. Show host Christian Matyi, aka "XN," whips up a thought-provoking (and maybe sentimental) twist on the calories you’ll use in the new year ahead.
