I mean, let's face it, part of my stick, part of my gig.

I want a freaking log and a podcast in which I try out cool new things and tell you all about them.

Right. And so part of it is like I'm not trying out like photo bio modulation and, you know,

and sleep cakes and electro stem and, you know, and shining the light on my balls or TDCs.

You know, I'm about to go speak on stage about like 10 different ways you could bio hack your brain,

right? I don't think everybody needs to be walking around doing that every day.

But part of what I do is I'm like, I'm almost like a glorified product tester for a lot of

this stuff. And so that that's part of it too is like, that's what I do. And because I freelance

right about this stuff and it's my job to test it and let people know how it works and stuff.

Like for me, that that's part of it too is a job.

I'm going to Barbara Strogg, the Mike Blitzer with Doug Larson and Andy Galpin and we're here at

PiliFX in Austin, Texas. And we've roped in Ben Greenfield for yet another show.

You know how you wrote me in. You put a poop kit on the on the table.

Not no, you've got like four poop kits over by your lunch over there. I've got one here.

You eat and then you poop in that and then you mail it off a smart gut. But what can you determine

from that? Have you guys done this before? No, they just handed it to me.

It takes beneficial pathogenic microorganisms. Interesting. You know what I'm sequencing.

You know what most of these genomic sequencing companies are only like sequencing like very,

very small part of the actual genome of the stool. So there's some guy who's actually had lunch with

him or dinner with him a couple weeks ago in Atlanta. He's harvesting space rocks from the moon.

And he's this billionaire who's developed like this new way to sequence the microbiome.

So he's launched this company called Viome, V-I-O-M-E.
