Doomscroll 34: Mike Israetel
My guest is Dr. Mike Israetel, a PhD in Sport Physiology and a co-founder of Renaissance Periodization. We discuss RFK, seed oils, endocrine disruptors, xenoestrogens and every other “based” twitter health meme in your news feed. We explore Dr. Mike’s background growing up in the crumbling Soviet Union and his life-changing encounter with libertarian philosophy. Later, we investigate the so-called pipeline between far right politics and weight-lifting. Is there any truth to this narrative?

Doomscroll 33.5: Taylor Lorenz
We explore Taylor’s background, how she became politicized and her vision for a free and open internet. I am trolling about the techno-deterministic teleological inevitability of StateBook — its monarchy vs WeChat and there’s nothing in between. I don’t make the rules.
