Topics Covered in Detail

Mike begins by mentioning who he’s interested in reaching, and speaks of “The Remnant”, which is an idea from Isaiah’s Job. They catch up and discuss the following:

• The economy

  Are supplements safe? Will our supply chains stay in tact? How bad will things get? Will we be able to safely hire someone (see next point)?

  Later on we also discuss the state of “hyperinflation” we’re seeing in the economy and how Millennials like Ben have been priced out of the housing market for now. Will it come back down to earth?

• Hiring at PricePlow

  We’re going to be looking for a like-minded individual who’s autonomous, zealous about supplements, and a great technical writer. The job’s not posted yet, but would love to hear from anyone with the following qualities:

  • Incredible technical writer
  • 11/10 in terms of organization
  • Can post in WordPress (training provided)
  • Can manage and engage our YouTube channel (training provided)
  • Can post contest giveaways via Buffer (training provided)

• Product Launches of 2021

  We’ve been very impressed with the new Performax Labs rebrand, Unbound, everything Ghost has done for their year of the V2, ingredient launches at NNB Nutrition like ergothioneine, how much Doug Miller (Episode #050) is keeping us busy at CORE / Merica / Arms Race, how Dr. Dom Iacovone and Matt Jansen are literally taking over bodybuilding and bringing Raw Nutrition and Revive MD with them, and far more. Don’t sleep on Kaged lately either!

• Immunity, metabolic health, and dealing in dystopia

  Mike’s immunity stack for the “dark winter”:

  • Zinc (either OptiZinc or Zinc Bisglycinate)
  • Quercetin (zinc ionophore, green tea extract could also work) – Mike uses ForestLeaf Quercetin Bromelain, which also has Vitamin C
  • Olive leaf extract (cheap way to inhibit ACE2 docking)
  • NAC
  • Vitamin D and Vitamin C
  • Bonus: Andrographis
  • Bonus: Berberine / Dihydroberberine

• FDA Enforcement (or lack thereof?)

  Mike’s biggest future concern is that the FDA is going to come after NAC, which spurred the immunity discussion and stack listed above. Ben’s less concerned about that, though.

  The biggest “mistake” in this episode is Mike saying that they won’t come after stimulants, and don’t seem to be concerned about that. Except on literally the same day we recorded, they served Condemned Labz a warning letter!

• Stimulants and caffeine detoxes

  Mike’s using way too much caffeine lately, but Ben’s on a C-TOX from Glaxon.

• Upcoming guests
