The following is a conversation with Andrew Huberman, a neuroscientist at Stanford,

working to understand how the brain works, how it can change through experience,

and how to repair brain circuits damaged by injury or disease.

He has a great Instagram account at Huberman Lab, where he teaches the world about the brain and the

human mind. Also, he's a friend and an inspiration in that he shows that he can be humble,

giving, and still succeed in the science world. Quick mention of each sponsor,

followed by some thoughts related to the episode.

people about the previous conversation I had with Iran Brook about objectivism. Some people

loved it, some people hated it. I miss spoken some parts, was more critical on occasion than I meant

to be. Didn't push on certain points that I should have was undereducated or completely unaware

about some major things that happened in the past or major ideas out there. I bring all that up

to say that if we are to have difficult conversations, we have to give each other space to make mistakes,

to learn, to grow. Taking one or two statements from a three-hour podcast and suggesting that they

encapsulate who I am, I was, or ever will be, is a standard that we can't hold each other to.

I don't think anyone can live up to that kind of standard, at least I know I can't.

The conversation with Iran is mild relative to some conversations that I will likely have in the

coming year. Please continue to challenge me, but please try to do so with love and with patience.

I promise to work my ass off to improve whether I'm successful at that or not, we shall see.
