Acerca de esta escucha

 Mike "Silent Mike" Farr and Jim McDonald are entrepreneurs (lifestyle apparel company and a barbell gym) and veteran podcasters. In every episode, they try to answer a single question. Any question is fair game, but most involve health, fitness, nutrition, mental health, culture…even sex. They examine common misconceptions and then try to get to the correct answer -- often with the help of subject matter experts. They walk away with a better sense of the facts…and so do you. Full episodes every Wednesday. Shorter episodes every Friday, dedicated to answering a question from listeners.

  • Josh Hajar: Staying positive, beating cancer, and losing over 100 lbs

    Josh Hajar: Staying positive, beating cancer, and losing over 100 lbs
    Jun 4 2025
    Mike is out of town, so Jim brought in one of Third Street Barbell’s most consistent and inspirational members, Josh Hajar.

    Josh is an emergency department nurse who faced a harrowing fight with non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, and then suffered an injury that set back his recovery and fitness goals. When he arrived at Third Street, he was finally ready to execute a winning game plan for losing weight and getting stronger. Building on the advice he received when he first received his cancer diagnosis to “Be Positive,” Josh sets a strong example in and out of the gym.

  • Netflix’s How to Change Your Mind (2022) | Review

    Netflix’s How to Change Your Mind (2022) | Review
    May 28 2025
    Psychedelics in psychotherapy. That’s the theme of this four-part documentary from Netflix. Can psychedelics break damaging thought patterns and allow people to heal from depression and trauma? This doc series would like to prove that they at least hold promise to do that. We cover episodes #1 (LSD) and #3 (MDMA).

    (Interesting, very recent twist: researchers have altered LSD to make it helpful to the brain but unable to cause psychedelic effects.)
