I don't need anything that casts a shadow.

Yeah, no, I think that that's a great point and the way that an animal has lived certainly

has an effect on I think the ethics of it before it dies.

And I wonder, you know, that old adage you are what you eat.

Sometimes I wonder about all the cruelty that we eat, the disregard, the lack of any sort

of respect for this sacredness of another living thing.

We eat that.

I have a master's degree in physiology, biomechanics, and human nutrition.

I've spent the past two decades competing in some of the most massacistic events on

the planet.

From seal-fit Kakoro, spardanagogy, and the world's toughest mudder to 13 Iron Man triathlons,

brutal bohunts, adventure races, spearfishing, plant foraging, freediving, bodybuilding, and

beyond.

I combine this intense time in the trenches with a blend of ancestral wisdom and modern

science, search the globe for the world's top experts in performance, fat loss, recovery,

hormones, brain, beauty, and brawn to deliver you this podcast.

Everything you need to know to live an adventurous, joyful, and fulfilling life.

My name is Ben Greenfield.

Enjoy the ride.

Oh, well, hello.

Or as I, I guess I should say a loha, because this whole freaking podcast is brought to you

by the great island, islands of Hawaii.
