For nearly a century, scientists believed we had discovered ALL of the essential fatty acids the human body needs. But what if they were wrong?
Stephanie Venn-Watson, a veterinary epidemiologist and longevity researcher, joins Dave to reveal a groundbreaking discoveryâa newly identified essential fatty acid, C15, that may hold the key to healthier aging and even longer lifespans. Originally uncovered in an unlikely placeâU.S. Navy dolphins that were outliving their wild counterparts by decadesâthis forgotten fat is now shaking up the scientific community.
So why hasnât anyone told you about it?? Decades of misguided dietary advice stripped this crucial nutrient from our food system, leaving an entire generation unknowingly deficient. Even worse, pregnant women have been some of the MOST hurt from this cruel change to our modern diet. Now, cutting-edge research is proving that C15 plays a critical role in cellular stability, mitochondrial function, and total mental health.
What Youâll Learn in This Episode:
⢠The first new essential fatty acid discovered in nearly 100 yearsâand why it matters
⢠How dolphins led to one of the BIGGEST breakthroughs in human nutrition
⢠Why the removal of C15 from our diets is accelerating aging
⢠The surprising connection between C15 and mental health
⢠How this âmissingâ fat could outperform some of the biggest longevity drugs today!
⢠What foods naturally contain C15âand should you supplement it?

Is the Way You Speak Limiting How You Think?
For years, scientists debated how language shapes the brain, but new research reveals it goes far beyond communication. Some languages lack numbers, grammar, or even complex sentencesâyet their speakers navigate reality in ways that defy expectations.
In this mind-bending episode, linguist Daniel Everett, known for challenging Noam Chomskyâs theories, shares how his time with the PirahĂŁ people reshaped our understanding of language, cognition, and even consciousness.
If language rewires thought, what happens when AI starts using it? Can a machine truly think? And what if whales, with their massive brains, have a language of their own?
What Youâll Discover in This Episode:
⢠The hidden power of languageâwhy learning a new one literally reshapes your brain
⢠The Piraha peopleâs mind-blowing approach to communication and what it reveals about human thought
⢠Can AI truly âthinkâ in language, or is it just an advanced mimic?
⢠How your environment affects memory, navigation, and cognitive function
⢠The psychedelic connection to language evolutionâcould altered states have unlocked speech?

Can You Mimic FastingâWithout Actually Fasting?
Chris Rhodes, a biochemist and longevity researcher, joins Dave to reveal a groundbreaking fasting mimetic that could revolutionize how we approach aging, metabolism, and health.
Fasting is one of the most powerful tools for longevity, but what if you could achieve the same benefits without hunger, energy crashes, or social sacrifices? Scientists have identified key compounds that mimic fasting at the cellular levelâoffering a way to extend lifespan, boost metabolism, and enhance cognitive function without giving up food.
Enter Mimio, a blend of four key molecules naturally produced during fasting, is engineered to deliver the life-extending benefits of fastingâwithout starvation.
For decades, fasting has been the gold standard for longevity, but over-fasting can wreck hormones, metabolism, and muscle mass. So, what if you could get the benefits of a 36-hour fast without the downsides? Chris breaks down the science behind fasting, autophagy, and the game-changing compounds that trick your body into entering a fasted stateâeven while eating.
What Youâll Learn:
⢠The optimal fasting window for maximizing lifespan (Hint: Itâs not 16 hours)
⢠The four fasting metabolites that extend life by 96%
⢠How Mimio mimics fasting benefitsâwithout giving up food
⢠The real reason over-fasting destroys your metabolism and hormones
⢠Why traditional longevity drugs (Metformin, Rapamycin) fall short
⢠Can you build muscle and burn fat at the same time? The science of mTOR & AMPK
⢠Why Big Pharma doesnât want you to know about this breakthrough

From chart-topping hits to life-threatening lowsâhow did Timbaland go from producing for Jay-Z, BeyoncĂŠ, and Justin Timberlake to battling addiction and obesity? And more importantly, how did he take his life back?

He and Dave dive into the power of discipline, the dangers of quick fixes, and the hard truths about personal transformation.
Timbaland opens up about the mental shift that saved his life, how he kicked a high-dose opioid habit cold turkey, and why his new âdrugâ of choice is something anyone can access.

Could the right form of a single vitamin be the difference between thriving and barely surviving?
In this Part 2 conversation, human biologist and longevity expert Gary Brecka reveals the #1 overlooked factor thatâs wrecking your health: methylationâyour bodyâs ability to convert nutrients into fuel. If this process fails, your hormones, energy, and even mental health take a nosedive.

Are you unknowingly setting yourself up for disease? Whatâs the simple fix that can reverse anxiety, gut problems, and even prevent genetic disease? And why is your doctor ignoring one of the biggest markers of longevity?
What Youâll Learn:
⢠The MTHFR gene mutationâand why itâs quietly affecting millions
⢠Anxiety, ADHD, and depressionâwhy these disorders start in your cells, not your brain
⢠The gut-brain connectionâhow your microbiome controls your mood
⢠Why your âhealthy dietâ might be hurting you (and what to eat instead)
⢠How nutrient deficiencies are passed from mother to childâand how to stop it
⢠The truth about homocysteineâthe blood marker that could predict your lifespan
