At the youthful age of sixty, Tony Mantz (Jack the Bear) is figuring out what he wants to do with the rest of his life. The guy who once tipped the scales at 170kgs and consumed eight litres of coke daily (216 teaspoons of sugar), while having an actual coke (cocaine) habit is back and we had a great chat about reinvention, possibilities, ageism, retirement, getting better with age, the psychology of age, starting over, building a new career (at sixty) and lots more. Enjoy.

#1497 Starting Again (At 60) - Tony Mantz (Jack The Bear)

Gillespo's back chatting about the new Al (a fake old lady, who's super chatty) designed to keep scammers on the phone, wasting their time and reducing their capacity to scam actual people (f**k those scammers). We also talk about Bunnings getting 'in trouble' for using face-scanning technology without the consent of their customers, the potential nefarious applications of such technology, me being filmed while I buy my groceries, the idea that 'being busy' might be good for people with ADHD, Tiff's love affair with her new decibel-increasing exhaust system (for her motorbike) and lots more. Enjoy.

#1713 Scamming The Scammers - David Gillespie

So I just met Dr. Jeffrey Gross on the podcast and I loved him so much that I asked him to be a regular on the show and he said yes. Giddy-up. I love my job and the fact that I get to 'hang out' with people who, in any other situation, l'd never even meet, let-alone become friends with. So good. In broad terms, we chatted about the evolution, attitudes, cults, limitations, pros and cons relating to the world of allopathic (Western) medicine, alternative treatments, biohacking, regenerative medicine and lots more (as it stands in 2024). **About the Doc.. Dr. Jeffrey Gross graduated from the University of California, Berkeley with a degree in biochemistry and molecular cell biology. He earned his Doctor of Medicine in 1992 from the George Washington University School of Medicine. He contributed to virology research during his studies. After graduating, he undertook a residency in neurological surgery at the University of California, Irvine Medical Centre until 1997. He then pursued a Fellowship and Chief Residency in Spinal Biomechanics at the University of New Mexico until 1999. Licensed in California and Nevada, Dr. Gross has SPINE practices in Orange County and Henderson, Nevada. A trained neurological surgeon, he specializes in athletic injuries and spine procedures, and offers longevity and biohacking consultations.

#1712 Our New TYP Regular - Dr. Jeffrey Gross

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/2fb3740d-3436-44af-8cc0-a91900716aa5/clips/dda496fa-d692-48b0-8534-b22e0066e76a/transcript

In this episode, Dr. Bill Sullivan (our favourite award-winning professor, author and science superstar from the Indiana University School of Medicine), tells us about being evolutionarily equipped for predators and dangers that no longer exist, and what impact that kind of hypervigilance can have on our mind, body, emotions and in general terms, our health. We also chat about status hierarchy (it's been around for millennia) and our need to feel superior, important and valued. We learn that stoics and philosophers were talking (and teaching) about the human condition thousands of years before psychology was a thing. We discuss the concept of wealth being about much more than money and the connect (or disconnect) between the states of our external (physical) and internal (non-physical) worlds. And in one of my proudest TYP achievements, after dropping the F bomb around the very moral and articulate Dr. Bill a thousand times over numerous episodes, today he walked through the swearing door for the first time. I should be ashamed. I'm not.
