You probably heard of Vital Proteins.

They're the number one brand of collagen peptides in the U.S., and for good reason, a lot of people, myself included, take it pretty much daily to support things like healthy hair, skin, nails, bones, joints, all the good stuff. That starts to matter more the longer you've been walking around on this planet. But now, Vital Proteins is shaking things up. literally, you can tell a dad wrote this copy, with a brand new collagen and protein shake,

and this isn't your average protein shake that tastes like chalk and sadness. This one's light, chocolatey, super smooth, and it's got something pretty unique going for it, high quality protein, 30 grams of it plus collagen, that's pretty good ROI. Usually you're choosing one or the other, but Vital Proteins gives you both a ready-to-drink shake you can toss in your bag or fridge, zero added sugar, no artificial sweeteners, and no carogenin. And I don't know what that is, or if that's even how you say it, but you're supposed to avoid that. If you're already taking collagen or you're just curious about how it might support your hair, skin, nails, joints, and you don't want any carogenin, this is a super easy, tasty way to

try it. Get 20% off by going to Vital Proteins.com and entering promo code Jordan at checkout.

Welcome to Feedback Friday. I'm your host, Jordan Harbinger. As always, I'm here with Feedback

Friday producer, the dank edible making you sink into this cozy Shes-Long of life drama,

Gabriel Mizrahi. And yes, I nailed the pronunciation of that word today.

That was, I was about to say 10 out of 10 on that one. Well done. I'm so proud of you.

No more Shez Lounge for me. I was listening to

an audiobook the other day and the narrator said Shez Lounge and I was like,

everybody knows that's not how you say it. How do they let that slip through? Amateurs, man.

The superiority once you learn something new. Amazing. It kicks in immediately. It takes like five minutes of you feeling stupid about not knowing it and then someone else gets it wrong. And you've been doing it wrong your whole life and you're like, look at this jagoff. Ken, doesn't know how to say Sheslong. If anyone's confused about what we're talking about, go back three, three and a half years maybe. There's's a whole Shays long versus Shays lounge conversation. That is a deep feedback Friday cut. That's right. That's right. Oh, geez only. On the Jordan Harbinger show, we decode the stories, secrets, and skills of the world's most fascinating people and turn their wisdom into practical advice that you can use to impact your own life and those around you. Our mission is to help

you become a better informed, more critical thinker. During the week, we have long-form conversations

with a variety of amazing folks, arms dealers, drug traffickers, Russian spies, hostage negotiators.

This week we had Christopher Whitcomb, author of Anonymous Mail. This is a two-parter. Fascinating,

dude, man. Christopher was a hostage rescue team sniper

on the FBI who ended up traveling the world with alias, cash, guns, ended up doing some private

spy stuff, built a private army in the jungles of East Timor, working contracts for intelligence

agencies, of course, survived a coup d'etat. His stories are bonkers. That's why it's a two-parter.
