Even though I myself am an elite podcaster I don’t really listen to many other podcasts but I do listen to Huberman Lab. There’s just something so soothing about his voice and all those rock solid facts about brain chemistry and peak endurance or whatever. I put it on when I feel anxious and largely do not retain or even understand most of the content but still I think it’s bettering me in some way. Andrew Huberman do you like guitar rock music?

🔬Grew up with Crash Course and John Green books and of course when I found out they have a podcast I have not stopped listening to it! Brilliant, funny, informative everything I love. Makes me introspective in a way that's different and more positive from how I usually am.

I love “Philosophize This!” I’ve been listening for a few years now, and I love how often I find a sort of comfort when the philosopher that he chooses to talk about has an eloquent way of laying the thoughts that are jumbled inside my own head. I don’t always agree with every view he shares, but I find myself becoming more sure and stable in my beliefs when I listen to this podcast. He brings philosophy to a very accessible level while being engaging and relevant.

🎬My favorite kind of movie is a kind they really went hard on in the 90s, where it’s largely just interesting characters talking to each other about ideas the whole time and the dialogue almost sounds like a play. Walk and talk movies, if you will. Hal Hartley’s are like that but dropped into these sort of fantastical, dramatic plotlines. I love them so much. Surviving Desire or Trust are perfect ones to start with.

🏋I got into weight lifting for the same reason I get into most things, which is pure unbridled vanity. I read or heard somewhere in my many biohacker information channels that weight lifting is the most anti-aging form of exercise, especially for women, and so I was like on my way! I wasn’t about to pay some community college bro $100 an hour at my LA Fitness to train me though so I just googled “weight lifting classes near me” and because I live a charmed and bless life I found the fucking coolest independent gym like a mile from my house and have been going there for almost a year. Vanity aside, it just makes you feel so good all the time. I love watching myself get stronger and I love the feeling after you lift something really heavy you thought you could never have lifted and I love all the neighborhood friends I’ve made there, including former PI subject and possibly coolest girl alive Petra Cortright. (Honestly a large part of my social life takes place there?) Anyway everyone over 30 should lift weights, preserve your waning muscle mass and build up your self-esteem babe.

🐮At this point 70% of my personality is raw milk - procuring it, drinking it, taking photos of it with pithy little captions like “night cap!”, talking about it to other people against their will, like on dates or to like trapped baristas at Starbucks. As someone of formerly lactose intolerant experience, I am not exaggerating when I say raw milk has VITALLY improved my existence. Besides the fact that it has something like 70% more available vitamins in it than pasteurized milk (I keep an infographic of this on my phone because I’m a girl and can’t be expected to remember numbers and science) it has all its natural enzymes for digestion which means not only can I party on as much raw milk and cheese as I want, the enzymes in those also digest regular bootleg ass milk, cheese, ice cream etc. I love you so much raw milk!!!
