Owen has a background coaching collegiate volleyball, but felt like he wasn’t living his true purpose. Owen is a Human Potential Coach, a biohacker, and has extensive knowledge in health/wellness, but felt like being a volleyball coach limited his ability to truly cr...

This week’s episode I had the pleasure of interviewing and speaking with Todd White, who is the founder of Dry Farm Wines. I had heard of Dry Farm Wines for years now, after attending the Bulletproof Conference in 2016 and being exposed to these natural wines. Up until then, I had never heard of biodynamic natural wines and their health benefits. All I knew was they were better for you and I have...

We welcome Dr John Jaquish back to "The Hacked Life" podcast for the third time!!! In our last two episodes we broke down variable resistance, the X3 bar, Osteostrong, and tons, tons, of info.

In this week’s podcast I had the pleasure of interviewing the founder and creator of Energybits, Catharine Arnston. Energybits is a brand of algae, specifically spirulina and chlorella. You might be wondering why on earth I’d talk about something like algae, a green plant found at the bottom of oceans and swamps. Well, Catharine has been fascinated with algae for over 10 years, since her sister wa...

In this series, I explained the perils of vegetables oils and sugar to your health (part 1 & 2). In this final episode of this series, I explain what you can and should eat, and how you should prioritize your diet What's fascinating about these principles, is it doesn't matter what race you are, or whether you're male or female, these same principles apply to living a thriving a...

I'm sure most of you are thinking, "yeah I already know sugar is a problem big deal." But let me ask you, are your joints stiff and creaky? Do you suffer from heart palpitations, hormonal disruption, high ch...

On the show this week, I met up with Angi Campos of Egoscue Method San Francisco. I had read about Egoscue Method almost 10 years prior in the book Pain Free by Pete Egoscue. It was recommended by a friend to help treat my low back pain. I found the book fascinating, but the exercises seemed too simple and required 45 minutes of my time, and I just felt like I couldn’t commit to that amount of tim...

Today’s guest is Dr Richard Bartlett, a traditionally trained Western MD out of West Texas. Dr Bartlett has held many positions as a doctor and has worked in multiple facilities, from smaller clinics to the emergency room to overseas in war zones doing missionary work. He might have not seen it all, but he’s been exposed to a lot over his 28 years as a practicing physician. Dr Bartlett, a religiou...

This week’s guest is a bit of detour for me in terms of health and fitness type of interviews. A friend of mine and doctor recommended I check out Lizzy Leslie who is a psychic medium. Even he said, “This kind of stuff is not really my thing, but she’s legit.” Not in my wildest dreams would I think of interviewing a psychic, because even I’m not sure I really believe in these “secret” powers. Howe...

This week’s guest needs no introduction and is none other than Dr Robert Rowen. Dr Rowen just turned 70 years old (and he looked amazing, especially his skin) and has been practicing alternative medicine for over 40 years. When I walked into Dr Rowen’s office, he was treating his blood with ozone, also known as O3. Ozone is a molecule composed of 3 atoms of oxygen (O3).  It can significantly impro...

This week’s episode is part two of last week’s episode with Dr John Jaquish. If you missed that episode, you really want to tune in so that this episode has some context. Nonetheless, in this episode Dr Jaquish discusses some of the fallacies with Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) and why so many people think he is “cheating” or that his muscle growth is artificial because he uses TRT. He exp...

Almost three years ago, I met Dr John Jaquish, the inventor of Osteostrong and the X3 Bar, at Dave Asprey’s HeadStrong book launch in San Francisco. At the time he was up to exciting experiments and biohacking that other people weren’t talking about. Shortly after, Dr Jaquish came out with a product named the X3 Bar. It was a simple enough looking system with a platform, some resistance bands, and...

Jenny Sansouci is the author and writer of Rebels Apothecary: A Practical Guide To The Healing Magic Of Cannabis, CBD, and Mushrooms. I first discovered Jenny years ago, as she’s a health coach and thought leader in the wellness community, and the host of the extremely popular blog Healthy Crush. Jenny’s new book was not written because she has a fascination with cannabis and medicinal mushrooms....

This is the first of a three part episode, where I am going to dissect some key nutrition concepts. After reading the book, Deep Nutrition, several years ago, I had learned so much about how our nutrition effects our genes, our symmetry, and much more. Even if you didn’t read the book, there were a few main take-aways, that if you only did these things, you could lead a much healthier, vibrant, an...

In this week’s episode, I sit down with the supple leopard, Steve Vierra. I first met Steve almost 10 years ago, where we both worked at the Oakland Police Dept. Steve is exactly 50.7 years old, but he looks and moves like a 25 year old. Steve is a huge health nut, a former bodybuilder, movement specialist, and health expert, and has so much wisdom to offer, I figured it was time to have him on th...

In this week's episode I highlight, five hacks (and a bonus six hack) of how to improve the air quality around you, as well as improve lung function. Ever since the last two years, since we were bombarded with the "California fires," I've been thinking of ways to protect my children and improve overall immunity. This is even more important now with the Coronavirus hysteria, and...

In this episode I highlight the Five so called "healthy foods" that you might be eating or you might be feeding your kids, thinking that you're providing them nourishing foods. If you or your kids have bloating or learning/focusing issues, or autoimmune conditions; some of these issues could be related to your diet. A lot of this information can be found in Dr Gundry's book &qu...

After reading Matthew Walker's great book "Why We Sleep," I thought I'd share 12 easy ways to get better sleep. These are easy categories to build awareness about your sleep habits and practices and see maybe areas you can improve. Matt Walker's book goes into great detail about sleep and is actually mind blowing. Nonetheless, this podcast will be summarize some major idea...

The fear of loss is a path to the Dark Side…Train yourself to let go of everything you fear to lose. There's been a lot of scare, panic, and FEAR plaguing the nation lately regarding the Coronavirus or COVID19. I thought it'd be fun to wrap up my Coronavirus special part 3 of 3 (#1 was a Virus protocol for overall health, #2 was 7 Ways to Beat the Financial Crisis) with fear management a...

In this episode, I revisited Tony Robbin’s hit book Unshakeable: Your Financial Freedom Playbook Creating Peace of Mind in a World of Volatility. In one of Tony’s chapters, titled Winter is Coming, But When… he talks about the seven “financial freedom facts.” After re-reading that chapter, I felt great ease with the whole financial crash and downturn during this Corona Virus scare. I wanted to sha...

I first met Dr Hicks almost six years ago, after my first son turned about one year’s old. My son had just started walking, and then all of a sudden, he had started falling repeatedly. My wife noticed he was limping on one leg an...

This week I wanted to do a solo-some sharing some of my top parenting hacks. Other than marriage, being a parent has probably been one of the most challenging things I’ve had to embark on in terms of personal development. You can be the Dalai Lama or Ghandi and tell people how they should act, and what peace means, but when a six year old tells you “No,” and disrespects you multiple times, it can...

At the end of the day, there’s nothing that more impacts your life more profoundly than your state of mind On this week’s episode, I talk to none other than Angela Martinucci. Angela is a Human Potential Coach and a Theta Healer, but is mostly known as being a Neuroptimal Neurofeedback Practitioner. I first met Angela at the 2017 Bulletproof Biohacking Conference, where she hooked me up to a Neuro...

This week I do a "solo-sode" and talk about how to help eliminate or prevent colds and viruses. Although two separate things, I felt it was necessary to talk about viruses given the recent scare of the Coronavirus plaguing the world. In this episode I talk about a type of diet to use during a cold/virus, a western approach, and eastern approach, and a biohacking approach. If you like, bl...
