Lex is fantastic. I'm really glad that Joe Rogan introduced many of us to him and encouraged him to do a podcast. Joe was absolutely correct to encourage Lex and it has really played out well.

This conversation turned out to be much more interested than I expected! Lot of topics discussed other than the title

What seperates lex’s podcast from others is other than the complexity of his conversations, but a lot of people probably take his 5 minute introduction for granted. Great work as always Lex!!

Your opening statements are incredibly well measured and authentically inspiring in way that feels calm and attainable.

Lex, you crack me up. You ask questions that, were I to ask them of the same person, wouldn't normally be taken seriously. But they turn into full conversations when you ask them! That's one of the reasons why I love your podcast. You bring out the "ordinary person" in each of your guests. You draw out your guests' humanity. Your podcast is wonderful.

This has knocked my socks off. Really enjoy your interviews which I found during the pandemic. During the 60s and 70s we were anti everything. All the specialist Lex brings on, I often laugh, yup they are finally bringing it to us in pure science, now we are not counter culture from food, yoga including our politics. I can rest in peace.
