Every time I mention that I like Huberman's podcasts, I get bombarded with comments on how he's basically a fool, a liar, yadayada.
And when I read every link, trying to see if maybe I should ditch his podcasts... all I see is, at most, in very specific cases, that some scientists defend different theories.
Like... wow. Science in a nutshell.
That is specially funny once you actually listen to his podcasts, because he is constantly reminding people that his words are not the literal truth, that he is no cop, and that he is simply collecting some evidence and always asking for people to go research this information, consult their doctor/physician/professional...
Joe Rogan has like a 1000 clips that can give you absolute clues on how this guy is... well... not great. And my guess is that people are associating a big muscular man with another?
Has the podcast claimed that the white male is a superior species or what am I missing?
Come on, what kind of dark agenda does a guy like Huberman have when basically everything that he says can be condensed into:
- get good sleep
- do sport
- eat well
- go outside
?
Another thing I've seen is many articles pointing out his "bad romances" and other weird personal life details, as if that mattered somehow?
I've definitely benefitted from it, hearing why sleep, sport, and outside (i already knew about eat well) are so beneficial, with other tips for how to do them more/better, has been genuinely helpful for me. That said I've only listened to a few episodes. But the most useful ones imo are the one on dopamine, the one on eye health, and the one on caffeine.
