    Steven Pinker: Outsmarting an Irrational World : 1333
    Sep 23 2025
    Your brain isn’t as rational as you think, and that blind spot can wreck your decision-making, relationships, and even your health. In this episode, you’ll learn how to spot the hidden cognitive traps that even the smartest people fall for, and how to upgrade your thinking so you can perform better, live longer, and make choices that actually serve you. Watch the condensed video highlight version of this episode (and much more!) on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Steven Pinker, a world-renowned cognitive psychologist, Harvard professor, and bestselling author whose research reshaped how we understand language, bias, social norms, and rationality. Pinker’s decades of scholarship make him a trusted guide to the mechanics of the mind and the behaviors that either elevate or derail human performance and longevity. Together they break down how the brain actually reasons, why smart people still fall for tribal thinking, what current AI gets wrong about human intelligence, and how “common knowledge” quietly governs cooperation, law, and civility. This is a masterclass in brain optimization through better thinking, built for people who care about biohacking, hacking mental models, neuroplasticity, and high-performance decision-making. You’ll learn: • How to recognize and counter the “my-side bias,” even if you’re highly intelligent • Why common knowledge creates and sustains social norms and coordination • The art of indirect speech and tact, and how to calibrate your words to reduce social risk • Simple upgrades that make video calls feel closer to real eye contact and why that boosts trust • What today’s AI gets wrong about minds and why models hallucinate • Rational habits that work in the real world: steelmanning, probabilistic thinking, adversarial collaboration, and making bets as a tax on bad arguments • Why liberal democracy fits human nature better than autocracy and how norms erode or hold • How to rebuild face-to-face social skills in a screen-first culture to improve resilience and performance This is essential listening for fans of biohacking, brain optimization, human performance, neuroplasticity, and longevity who want clear, usable frameworks to think better and live better with Dave Asprey. Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade brings you the knowledge to take control of your biology, extend your longevity, and optimize every system in your body and mind. Each episode delivers cutting-edge insights in health, performance, neuroscience, supplements, nutrition, biohacking, emotional intelligence, and conscious living. New episodes are released every Tuesday, Thursday, Friday (audio-only), and Sunday (BONUS). Dave asks the questions no one else will and gives you real tools to become stronger, smarter, and more resilient.

These are the exact science-backed steps that got me back to feeling sharp, focused, and fully me. Let’s turn your brain back on.

    Lisa Bilyeu: How to hack confidence : 1331
    Sep 19 2025
    Confidence is biology you can hack. In this episode, you’ll see how confidence builds inside your brain, rewires through neuroplasticity, and connects directly to mitochondria, metabolism, and human performance. You’ll get tools that reprogram fear, regulate your nervous system, and turn stress into fuel so you build radical confidence that lasts. Listen to this classic with host Dave Asprey as he talks with entrepreneur, author, and Women of Impact founder Lisa Bilyeu. Lisa went from a stay-at-home “supporting role” to co-founding Quest Nutrition, scaling it into a billion-dollar company, and running a global media empire. She brings years of lived experience and applied mindset training, making her one of the most authentic voices on confidence, resilience, and leadership in the biohacking world. You’ll learn how to: • Hack confidence with the same strategies you use for sleep optimization, fasting, and cold therapy • Spot biological triggers behind fear, self-doubt, and procrastination • Use repetition and mindset tools to upgrade brain optimization and neuroplasticity • Turn stress hormones into growth signals for longevity and functional medicine practices • Reframe trauma and setbacks as power for resilience and high performance • Support courage and focus with nootropics, ketosis, supplements, and Danger Coffee This episode shows you how to treat confidence as a trainable skill, not a personality trait. If you want smarter not harder strategies to master your biology, expand your impact, and live with unshakable resilience, you’ll find them here.

Hi Dave: I have survived life listening to your podcast. I started listening to you a couple years ago, & you bought me back to life. The first episode on analemma you did I immediately bought the wand I think it was October 2022. I take care of plants in office buildings & residents & I thought it would help some of my plants that seem not to take up nutrients from the soil. But it requires too much time to stir the water.
So when this episode came out about the whole house system I ordered it. also rebloom orchids & will use this system for it as well as my dogs & husband. I love the wand but am super excited for the whole house system, I know this will be another Hugh turning point in my life from you. Thank you so much for bringing this information to the world. You make this plant more amazing.

Dave Asprey says, always learn the most you can so when you do make changes to your health in the best way and the most correct and complete way possible. So don't just listen to only one episode, more research and homework is always needed when trying to add or make changes to your health. The more you know!
I love Dave Asprey! I'm grateful!
