@@mclau1524how? For example I understood how dopamine works and how important it is to deliberately calm down rather than always looking for the dopamine hit
I removed TV from my room and exchanged TV time for Huberman time and i am watching myself growing in all aspects of my life. Wtf is that ?

Recap by Tammy AI
I had dismissed Ferriss for years, but this interview completely changed my perspective. I thought his brand seemed dated, and during the time he rose I saw him as inauthentic like most mainstream self help gurus. I can't believe how wrong I was. Thoughtful, kind, generous, and complicated. A real treat to hear him both provide insight into his success while being vulnerable about his challenges.
"What would you do, even if you knew it was going to fail anyway?" Is a genuinely invaluable question to determine which things do you truly value and how much will do you have to realize them.
So pleased to see Tim Ferriss get the recognition he deserves! He's the OG podcaster. He raised the bar for podcast quality on the internet and paved the way for so many others. So much competence, foresight, humility and cool in one person. Glad you had him on, Andrew. Meaningful episode as always.
Andrew Huberman What an episode and what a place for me to hear it! So much of what Ferris said was on point with current place and ideas. I’m alone, I’m in the woods, I’m fasting, and trying to break cycles and patterns. Downloaded the episode and I don’t have cell service. I have been writing in my Notes in my phone. Including this comment, post episode. I’ll have to walk up the hill to put into comments section. So much of what you guys have put forth are being implemented by me in my isolation. As Ferris. I brought my free weights. I brought my rubber bands. I made a slant board. Knees over toes. I have an idea about hauling rocks with this old cart for sled. The reality is that I have much less endurance for such a thing. Distance hauling. I’m trying to quit smoking and it’s hard. Fasting. It gets painful and the mind screams for one of the 3 things I am trying to quit. Would creatine help to take during a fast, I heard it does? Sugar is all but defeated for months now. Sloth is on the run. The remaining addictions are still lingering. Pot. Cigarettes. The conscious breathing aspect of it is part of my working theory on how to defeat it and why it lingers. Do you think I have to quit pot? It’s not a big thing? The cigarette is tho…I know. Vaping? The connection to our bodies is such that we have to pause and breathe for it once in awhile to give the capacity to do something else. Very unscientific but I’m sure the science is there. I’m taking control of something I don’t usually. It shifts me. The duality of existence? Being alone is hard. Being fasted is hard. Being in withdrawl is hard. I am on a river that is colder than a summer lake. It’s shocking and I have begun a dive in daily. The water is close to waterfalls and it’s quite the push away from where you jump in at. The cold the strong push of the current. It’s very exhilarating. It’s probably short a little on a cold plunge but it’s not far off. I’m in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Finnish Genetically. 98 percent. 1 Russian, 1 European. 75 percent more Neanderthal than average. Proud of that last one! Explains so much! Caveman here… Ferris had so many points in this podcast that made sense to me in a deep way. That hit me deeply. That I will need to move to a large population source. I will need to prove my worth in some ways there. I will have to fast and get my body into a bulletproof state to maximize the time I have. I am 41. So I have to have optimized protocols to be active in the way that will allow me to continue to grow. I should go to Austin and learn Jui Jitsui? That could be a type of thought process that Ferris said tho. Volunteer and pay for coaching ;). You guys want someone to experiment on? Again jokes. Thanks so much brother. Ps. Should I go college, I haven’t yet. I am a Union Bricklayer. I love the work sometimes. Sometimes it’s very beneath my mental capacity. Other times it’s perfect. What do you think? Do I need college? Another poem. By Starbuck Arbelius Huberman Labs Podcast, science with a soul, Watch the episodes that relate to your goals, The science is the star and he’s a gent, All the guests are super intelligent! The proof of your teachings are felt first hand, Sleeping good and training as I stand(Tibs) Your introduction to ATG has fixed my stance, Working out has given me the chance, The science was what I needed to hear, Knowing has calmed all my fears, Meth and heroin nearly took my fate, Now I will become the best mate, In more ways than one, the habits won’t end, Addiction killed almost all my friends, I focus on sharing my change, The people are learning my range, Which includes both your teachings Thanks again, keep on preaching!
Cryotherapy helped me immensely in quitting Smoking and nicotine-abuse. Also, stimulants such as slow-release Methylphenidate (Concerta) helped a ton, although you should check beforehand with psychotherapists whether or not that's required due to neurodivergence. Also, stay away from pot when trying to quit smoking, I think it's hard to do one but not the other.
If you were enrolled in a private Catholic college, one of the books for required reading is 50 days of solitude by Doris grumbach. People's college experiences varies widely. Some people do it for money some people do it to expand their mind.
Thank you so much for sharing all that. Strong no to vaping. I made a huge effort to go to college, thought it would make me better educated. I was the first girl in the family to graduate. It was a disappointing experience. All real education is self-education. It would be better to have a mentor who could recommend what to read, could ask you to write essays, then discuss. I’m trying to find a retired professor who would be interested in extra income. College is necessary for STEM, I guess. You have a solid skill right now- and skills pay bills. 👍 There was an article- I think the title was : My 10 thousand dollar College Education. The author shared how he achieved this. I broke a food addiction when I was sick for a month- then the processed food and alcohol seemed repulsive. The amazing part was the clarity of mind I felt for months - until I ate the bad food again. Look into ayahuasca retreats ( check their backgrounds carefully). Lots of documentaries about what it can do for breaking addictions. I’m considering this- might help me change my life at last. Best wishes to you.
I have so much to thank Tim Ferris for. I come from a country where there's a lot of control and mistreatment of women. I used to feel emotionally hurt and hopeless, but thanks to him, I've been able to heal and educate myself to change my life. I genuinely appreciate both of you for trying to help people. I have so much respect for you. 🙏💐
Tim's focus on the importance of asking yourself the right questions has made a huge impact on my life. Like Andrew said, it feels something like getting the subconscious motivations clear.
1:22:00 important 1:23:00 1:26:30 trouble in life because of motivation 1:27:10 what would you do (action and process) you if knew you couldn't fail? But what would you do if you knew you're gonna fail in term of process in terms of identifying to not gonna fail 1:30:00 writing and thinking about question when writing journal
I really appreciate both the work of Andrew Huberman and Tim Ferris. The free information they provide, the inspiration etc are really really great. What strikes me however is that both seem to be highly rational and also quite focused on themselves, in the sense of tracking their daily activities, routines, nutrition etc. They almost approach life and their body and mind as a machine that can be programmed, optimized etc. But a human is not a robot and life can be quite unpredictable. I am all for improving your life and living the best possible, but feelings, spontaneity, relaxation etc are highly underrated by these two gentlemen is my impression. Live a little folks!! Don't take life too seriously and or overthink everything. It's a friendly suggestion!
I just read The Shepherd’s Life- he talked about the free mental time of being outdoors working, observing, learning- so many never experience that growing up. There are a few interviews with the author, James Rebanks, on TH-cam. It ‘s remarkable what he can see about his sheep, the weather, the soil and plants, the convection with other farmers and shepherds.
Found Huberman and have been really trying to change my life lately. I’ve been listening to these while I go to the gym. It’s been insanely beneficial. Thank you. When I focus on what you teach, the quality of my life changes exponentially. I appreciate having access to such a powerful mentor on this platform.
Yes likewise man. As Tim said, I am also looking for small changes which make exponential growth in day to day life. And this is exactly what Mr. Huberman provides! Thanks 🙏🏻
I stopped the latest episode of Tim Ferriss podcast to listen to Prof. Huberman's (Do'h it's Monday) only to find out Tim Ferriss is the guest! Awesome podcast, as always, your number one fan!
All of this was so insightful but what stood out the most was a beautiful and courageous moment where Tim shares his time in a dark hour for no other reason than to help others and Andrew’s genuine response of care and empathy. Thank you both!
The realest thing said "id meet with me, sometimes i meet with me and its pretty unpleasant" thanks for normalizing the internal battles us men have. ❤
I am painting at 1:58am listening to this kiddos fast asleep… yes so deeply agree 👍 Thank you for a lot of good useful information I’m going to apply to my life 😊 I’ve been neglecting my mindfulness activities , this was a nice way to reset with the upcoming new year
I brought two of my friends to sleep in nature, in two different occasions (one sleeping directly on the ground and one sleeping in the hammock). They both have problem falling asleep at home. They told me they tried everything. When in nature they felt asleep easily, and they reported a perfect sleep. Nature has a powerful effect on us, it's our habitat, we're evolved into the wild. We're not adapted to cities. It's lovely to hear your podcasts.
I extremely agree with Tim Ferriss on the significance of in-person interactions and the power of meaningful connections. Let's prioritize building genuine relationships, attending conferences, and approaching experts to expand our networks. Together, we can accomplish extraordinary things!
Thank you Dr. Huberman and Tim. You two are instrumental in a clear, consise delivery of useful, fundamentally sound human condition improvement tools and actions. Absolutely invaluable. Thanks to both of you.
My Life actually changed when i read 4 Hour Work week, following these both 'scientists' i call them. Nothing changed me more and made me productive and fastest man in room than Tim Ferris.
I had great success following Tim's Slow-Carb Diet. This podcast encouraged me to make a video on my experience experimenting with it and reminded me that I should follow it again!
I think sometimes underestimate or forget how much of a positive impact Tim has had on my life. This interview reminded me of his influence. He really has been a mentor for me.
I’ve listened to many Ferris podcasts, mostly where he is playing the role of interviewer asking the great questions. Seeing him on the other side of the table I am very impressed at how much he has to offer and Huberman brought the best out of him as well. My biggest takeaway is the power of n=1 outliers whether it’s the nerd working on the next big thing, self studies, gathering anecdotes from others, and just understanding that the small sample will always come before the official study or the mainstream.
Love the commentary about the mind and time sucking power of social media, no kidding! As an ADDer, I’ve had to ignore these things for years because they’re so distracting! First I just muted all notifications, but I’ve had to take it one step further and set “app limits” so my phone tells me when I’m done for the day. I give about 15 mins per each, FB, and IG. TH-cam, that’s educational so, that one gets an hour. Thanks for the amazing interview guys!
This is just whaou! I personally find that this has so much depth, honest reflection, a relaxed focused energy of mutual friendship, respect and investigative curiosity.... It is honey for my mind, soul and body.... I savour it in small chunks... and certainly going to relisten.... I already take notes and reflect whilst listening.... One of the best ever youtube podcasts.... And 4 hours is not too long.... Here quantity and quality go hand in hand...
Amazing episode. Big hug for Tim, for being vulnerable in front of the whole world. This is real courage. It is not that often when a man is speaking with an open heart about sensible private feelings and trauma. ❤ Thank you for this vulnerability.
I love how generous Tim is with sharing all the little details of his day to day routine that have led to his success. Such a great jumping off point. What a wonderful conversation! Thank you Tim and Andrew!

My apologies I was asleep at the start but once I woke up before my alarm this kept me wide awake and enthralled. What two wonderfully engaging people. Truly inspiring.
I found one of the most powerful and incontrovertible truths in Tim’s story about suicide is an insight into dark perspectives. It’s like mud on the lens of perception but you’re too stupid to see that’s it’s mud. Everything just looks shitty. Even when we suspect delusions, we hold on to them with the strings of our emotions or the broken synapses of logical thought. Tim is by most metrics a very successful guy. And yet has been plagued by depression, thoughts of self loathing, and planned to initiate an act of personal nihilism. Tim’s story is proof that the dark mind can’t always be trusted. It casts delusions. But with strength, courage and meaning, you can emerge from those delusions. Its not just delusion though. It’s also a steering wheel driving into darkness or light. It’s an admirable story and gives hope backed by evidence for many who meander in the shadows of nihilism.
I took so many notes from this - thank you Tim and Andrew! Thought I'd share: **Questions for interviewing** 1. What are the nerds on the topic doing after a particularly long work day or work week? (ask Adam)? 2. What are rich people doing now that normal people might be doing in 10 years? 3. Where are people piecing together awkward solutions? Where are people cobbling together awkward solutions? Is there room for innovation there? Ask EXPERTS!! 1. Who are two of your close friends or thinkers you pay a lot of attention to that are on the bleeding edge of something **Internal advice:** What type of mini books would be of interest to me personally? Where do I want to be located physically? What will help? Work from 9pm to 4am? Focus on face to face interaction to build network, not online. It’s underutilised “If I could never talk about this, would I still want to do this?” What would you do if you knew you were going to fail? Easier to stress test your own certainty or beliefs when they are captured on paper “What might this look like if this were easy?” Write it down. Who would you like to learn from? Know where you want to go. Unless you schedule things that you claim are important, they're gonna get crowded out by bullshit I find that my ability to be still and calm is eroded if I am too easily able to escape boredom **Technical stuff:** Scrivener - check out program Gather research docs and drafts Three asterixis fit stuff you want to revisit Learn more about Seth Godin **Talk to Moderator instead of speaker** Is there anyone here you think I would get along with I could buy a coffee? Would you mind making the intro? Aim: learn skills and actually becoming friends with someone, when you approach them Repeat and meet new people Immediate actions: Book - Gold Rumi Learn - Seth Godin stuff
I have no words to describe! What a great, honest, communicative and just fantastic episode! I found it inspirational, generous and just so human. This is just exceptional honesty and work by a man who HAS and IS doing his work and imporvmenet. Thank you Tim and Andrew!
As someone who used to write late at night for years and then tried to shift my writing times to a more "normal" schedule but as a result became really unproductive, I was so glad to hear him speak on this. I'm thankful that he told it straight that "writers will avoid writing" because I used to beat myself up about it.
Because I know someone will read these comments, some dot points: My dog story: had to raise two children before we went from never having a dog (for five decades) to Border Collie. We're doing ok; especially because he takes me for long morning walks in direct sunlight especially in the cold of winter. Now looking to see just how much more I can train each other to do, 'cause he already knows how to herd chickens, cats, magpies and me. More importantly I feel this is the lowest entropy way to let Tim know that he can add a +1 as to people that he has helped with dark thoughts with his blog post those years ago. Wabi-Sabi. We're all different, it gives me something to talk about and thank you both for being as thorough and authentic as you are.
Andrew - what an amazing podcast with Tim Ferriss - I listened to it all in one go. I usually fall asleep within 30 minutes and have to re-listen to your podcasts many times. This one I listened in one go! Needless to say I’ve been awake since 1 am lol. Now getting out of bed for work. Thanks for the introduction to Tim Ferris.
This was truly an inspirational conversation. Listening to Tim talk about the reason that made him share some of the hardships he's been through moved me, on one hand, and learning about Cock Punch and the unexpected and creative way that the title reflected an aspect of a fantasy story, on the other, made me realize how versatile, brave and intelligent Tim is. And you are an excellent interviewer, Andrew. Thank you both for this episode.
On the benefits of exercising in nature, gardening can be an amazing way of tapping into similar types of benefits, when travel options are limited. Lots of good research to support how effective it is.
I think the discussions between Dr. Huberman and Tim Ferriss are my favourite :) So does Dr. Huberman have a child then, considering what he said in the end? Happy for him, he'd be a great father :) And so will Tim Ferriss :)
Appreciate so many of your guests & what they have to share. Suggestion: please bring on a few more guests who have experience as an older person. I’m 59 & while I’ve learned much from most of your guests & you, I’ve not heard from an aging person’s perspective (except Dr. Attia who occasionally mentions because of practice exposure). Thanks & keep up the great work!!
3:00:23 Feeling like you want to kill yourself is no worse than other big feelings. It only becomes dangerous if you don’t believe that you are connected to anyone, that your being alive really matters to someone. Talking about it is a step toward connection. No one would ever hurt someone else unless she or he had been deeply hurt and not able to discharge and heal from it. This also applies to hurting yourself. People struggling with suicidal feelings do not deserve any criticism or judgment. Even the people who have killed themselves deserve no blame. I would like to see suicide thought of as murder carried out by the oppressive society, which keeps people hurting and unable to connect and heal.
Disagree. The most important promise I've made, deep in the depths of suicidal depression, was to my mom promising I'd never hurt myself. Suicide is a fundamentally selfish, though nonetheless tragic act. However, I believe it is made more acceptable by placing the blame outside yourself, whether on society or circumstance. Taking responsibility and accepting your agency are antidotes to depression, not contributors. You can be compassionate and hold people accountable simultaneously.
@@TheBswanthat’s easy to say when you had a mother who cared. The people who carried through felt loved by none. Why would such a downtrodden abandoned person have obligation to those around them? Why would someone choose to die if anything had made it worth living? You can’t think your way out of depression, and blaming the victim doesn’t do anything except inflict more pain. More likely you rode out the depressive episode with support from loved ones. I’m not trying to invalidate your experience, but it’s incredibly insulting that you assume everyone in a suicidal state had caused their own misery and could escape from it. When I was a teen I couldn’t do anything except make plans to jump. It comes from having no escape in a world where no one cared and everyone just pointed fingers. I got better when, guess what, my circumstances changed. I moved out, got friends, wasn’t systematically excluded in school for having acne and a limp, didn’t have mentally ill parents constantly screaming that “if you’re gonna be crazy do it somewhere else and stop bothering us”
Also - my only suggestion on this otherwise great interview - can we please see Molly next time? 😍 I was SO keen when you both started referencing this gorgeous studio visitor, I was waiting for the camera to tilt down! Haaaa. 😂
My two favorite podcasters. What a joy and a gift to the world. Thank you both so much for what you do! Mr. Huberman, I would love to see you and Dr. Nadine Burke Harris regarding one of her book, “Healing the Long-Term Effects of Childhood Trauma and Adversity”. It would be so interesting watching you talk regarding the ACE study and so on. Hope this recommendation finds you well Mr. Huberman!!
Brilliant. I hear you guys on this cast, and it feels like the world will be alright. I can't put into words how much I enjoyed this... Bravo gents, bravo.
Nobody can become financially successful overnight. They put in background work but we tend to see the finished part. Fear is a dangerous component, hindering us from taking bold steps we need in other to reach our goals. you have to contend with inflation, recession, decisions from the Feds and all. I was able to increase my portfolio by $289k in months. You have to seek for help in the right places.
I think it's not always about fear, Sometimes realistic factors discourage people from reaching their goals in life. For instance, I've tried investing in the stock market several times but always got discouraged by fluctuations of stock value
The best course of action if you lack market knowledge is to ask a consultant or investing coach for guidance or assistance. Speaking with a consultant helped me stay afloat in the market and grow my portfolio to about 65% since January, even though I know it sounds obvious or generic. I believe that is the most effective way to enter the business at the moment.
'Carol Vivian Constable, a highly respected figure in her field. I suggest delving deeper into her credentials, as she possesses extensive experience and serves as a valuable resource for individuals seeking guidance in navigating the financial market.
A beautiful conversation between two true friends. I could see the excitement you both had in speaking to each other and I find it magical that we get to sit in.
Thank you two for the content. I am a medical doctor (psychiatrist) from Brazil and your knowledge helps me a lot opening my views about many things. Really helpful. Thanks.
For someone with ADHD, this episode ended too soon. Incredible how this conversation went through so many unexpected topics. thank you both for doing what you do. Also, looking forward to the series on mental health!
33:08 Dr Huberman, Athletic Green is no doubt a good product and the pricing, which is on the high side of expensive and I assume, in some accordance with that quality you propose it has. Having said that, it’s just not expensive, it’s ridiculously expensive and well out of my reach 💸
I started listening to your podcast 4 months ago and I found it amazing. There are some parts about the vegan and vegetarian diet in some episodes but I don't find any podcast discussing particularly that. I would love to see a podcast on vegetarian and vegan diets and what to be mind full of in terms of biochemistry and neurology. Thank you for your amazing podcast.
My whole life has improved greatly since finding The Andrew Huberman Podcast.

Recap by Tammy AI
What is Tammy AI
I had dismissed Ferriss for years, but this interview completely changed my perspective. I thought his brand seemed dated, and during the time he rose I saw him as inauthentic like most mainstream self help gurus. I can't believe how wrong I was. Thoughtful, kind, generous, and complicated. A real treat to hear him both provide insight into his success while being vulnerable about his challenges.
Somewhat the same for me too
he gets a lot of unnecessary hate from people that haven’t researched tim or read any of his books
"What would you do, even if you knew it was going to fail anyway?" Is a genuinely invaluable question to determine which things do you truly value and how much will do you have to realize them.
🗣️💯
I'd do whatever takes the quickest amount of time so I can move onto something else that might be successful
So pleased to see Tim Ferriss get the recognition he deserves! He's the OG podcaster. He raised the bar for podcast quality on the internet and paved the way for so many others. So much competence, foresight, humility and cool in one person. Glad you had him on, Andrew. Meaningful episode as always.
“Cool”.. ?😂
@@starchaser6024 yeah, I find intellect & mastery over physiology, linguistics and other areas to be quite cool.
very well said and completely agree! So much respect for Tim and all of his contributions to the podcasting world.
Andrew's face when Tim said from 10pm to 4-5am ... He's like "what about the circadian rhythms?" 😮😮
😂😂😂
Good morning class, happy Monday

Andrew Huberman
What an episode and what a place for me to hear it! So much of what Ferris said was on point with current place and ideas.
I’m alone, I’m in the woods, I’m fasting, and trying to break cycles and patterns. Downloaded the episode and I don’t have cell service. I have been writing in my Notes in my phone. Including this comment, post episode. I’ll have to walk up the hill to put into comments section.
So much of what you guys have put forth are being implemented by me in my isolation. As Ferris. I brought my free weights. I brought my rubber bands. I made a slant board. Knees over toes. I have an idea about hauling rocks with this old cart for sled. The reality is that I have much less endurance for such a thing. Distance hauling. I’m trying to quit smoking and it’s hard. Fasting. It gets painful and the mind screams for one of the 3 things I am trying to quit. Would creatine help to take during a fast, I heard it does?
Sugar is all but defeated for months now. Sloth is on the run. The remaining addictions are still lingering. Pot. Cigarettes. The conscious breathing aspect of it is part of my working theory on how to defeat it and why it lingers. Do you think I have to quit pot? It’s not a big thing? The cigarette is tho…I know.
Vaping?
The connection to our bodies is such that we have to pause and breathe for it once in awhile to give the capacity to do something else. Very unscientific but I’m sure the science is there. I’m taking control of something I don’t usually. It shifts me. The duality of existence?
Being alone is hard. Being fasted is hard. Being in withdrawl is hard. I am on a river that is colder than a summer lake. It’s shocking and I have begun a dive in daily. The water is close to waterfalls and it’s quite the push away from where you jump in at. The cold the strong push of the current. It’s very exhilarating. It’s probably short a little on a cold plunge but it’s not far off. I’m in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Finnish Genetically. 98 percent. 1 Russian, 1 European. 75 percent more Neanderthal than average. Proud of that last one! Explains so much! Caveman here…
Ferris had so many points in this podcast that made sense to me in a deep way. That hit me deeply. That I will need to move to a large population source. I will need to prove my worth in some ways there. I will have to fast and get my body into a bulletproof state to maximize the time I have. I am 41. So I have to have optimized protocols to be active in the way that will allow me to continue to grow. I should go to Austin and learn Jui Jitsui?
That could be a type of thought process that Ferris said tho. Volunteer and pay for coaching ;). You guys want someone to experiment on? Again jokes.
Thanks so much brother.
Ps.
Should I go college, I haven’t yet. I am a Union Bricklayer. I love the work sometimes. Sometimes it’s very beneath my mental capacity. Other times it’s perfect.
What do you think? Do I need college?
Another poem. By Starbuck Arbelius
Huberman Labs Podcast, science with a soul,
Watch the episodes that relate to your goals,
The science is the star and he’s a gent,
All the guests are super intelligent!
The proof of your teachings are felt first hand,
Sleeping good and training as I stand(Tibs)
Your introduction to ATG has fixed my stance,
Working out has given me the chance,
The science was what I needed to hear,
Knowing has calmed all my fears,
Meth and heroin nearly took my fate,
Now I will become the best mate,
In more ways than one, the habits won’t end,
Addiction killed almost all my friends,
I focus on sharing my change,
The people are learning my range,
Which includes both your teachings
Thanks again, keep on preaching!
Cryotherapy helped me immensely in quitting Smoking and nicotine-abuse. Also, stimulants such as slow-release Methylphenidate (Concerta) helped a ton, although you should check beforehand with psychotherapists whether or not that's required due to neurodivergence. Also, stay away from pot when trying to quit smoking, I think it's hard to do one but not the other.
If you were enrolled in a private Catholic college, one of the books for required reading is 50 days of solitude by Doris grumbach. People's college experiences varies widely. Some people do it for money some people do it to expand their mind.
Thank you so much for sharing all that.
Strong no to vaping.
I made a huge effort to go to college, thought it would make me better educated. I was the first girl in the family to graduate. It was a disappointing experience.
All real education is self-education. It would be better to have a mentor who could recommend what to read, could ask you to write essays, then discuss. I’m trying to find a retired professor who would be interested in extra income.
College is necessary for STEM, I guess.
You have a solid skill right now- and skills pay bills. 👍
There was an article- I think the title was : My 10 thousand dollar College Education. The author shared how he achieved this.
I broke a food addiction when I was sick for a month- then the processed food and alcohol seemed repulsive. The amazing part was the clarity of mind I felt for months - until I ate the bad food again.
Look into ayahuasca retreats ( check their backgrounds carefully). Lots of documentaries about what it can do for breaking addictions.
I’m considering this- might help me change my life at last.
Best wishes to you.
Two of my favorite podcasters talking to each other for 3 and a half hours straight, this day couldn't be better. Thank you!
Agreed
I have so much to thank Tim Ferris for. I come from a country where there's a lot of control and mistreatment of women. I used to feel emotionally hurt and hopeless, but thanks to him, I've been able to heal and educate myself to change my life. I genuinely appreciate both of you for trying to help people. I have so much respect for you. 🙏💐
What country if u don’t mind me asking
She's Persian.
This is a podcast worthy of viewing SEVERAL times...
Tim's focus on the importance of asking yourself the right questions has made a huge impact on my life. Like Andrew said, it feels something like getting the subconscious motivations clear.
1:22:00 important
1:23:00
1:26:30 trouble in life because of motivation
1:27:10 what would you do (action and process) you if knew you couldn't fail? But what would you do if you knew you're gonna fail in term of process in terms of identifying
to not gonna fail
1:30:00 writing and thinking about question when writing journal
Thank you
I love that Tim said, "you dont need to go buy anything"
I really appreciate both the work of Andrew Huberman and Tim Ferris. The free information they provide, the inspiration etc are really really great. What strikes me however is that both seem to be highly rational and also quite focused on themselves, in the sense of tracking their daily activities, routines, nutrition etc. They almost approach life and their body and mind as a machine that can be programmed, optimized etc. But a human is not a robot and life can be quite unpredictable. I am all for improving your life and living the best possible, but feelings, spontaneity, relaxation etc are highly underrated by these two gentlemen is my impression. Live a little folks!! Don't take life too seriously and or overthink everything. It's a friendly suggestion!
I just read The Shepherd’s Life- he talked about the free mental time of being outdoors working, observing, learning- so many never experience that growing up.
There are a few interviews with the author, James Rebanks, on TH-cam. It ‘s remarkable what he can see about his sheep, the weather, the soil and plants, the convection with other farmers and shepherds.
Found Huberman and have been really trying to change my life lately. I’ve been listening to these while I go to the gym. It’s been insanely beneficial.
Thank you. When I focus on what you teach, the quality of my life changes exponentially. I appreciate having access to such a powerful mentor on this platform.
Yes likewise man. As Tim said, I am also looking for small changes which make exponential growth in day to day life. And this is exactly what Mr. Huberman provides! Thanks 🙏🏻
2 hours of generally solid advice being spoken! The real ones will not actually put these into action! 💪
More like 4

I stopped the latest episode of Tim Ferriss podcast to listen to Prof. Huberman's (Do'h it's Monday) only to find out Tim Ferriss is the guest! Awesome podcast, as always, your number one fan!
All of this was so insightful but what stood out the most was a beautiful and courageous moment where Tim shares his time in a dark hour for no other reason than to help others and Andrew’s genuine response of care and empathy. Thank you both!
The realest thing said "id meet with me, sometimes i meet with me and its pretty unpleasant" thanks for normalizing the internal battles us men have. ❤
I am painting at 1:58am listening to this kiddos fast asleep… yes so deeply agree 👍
Thank you for a lot of good useful information I’m going to apply to my life 😊
I’ve been neglecting my mindfulness activities , this was a nice way to reset with the upcoming new year
I brought two of my friends to sleep in nature, in two different occasions (one sleeping directly on the ground and one sleeping in the hammock). They both have problem falling asleep at home. They told me they tried everything.
When in nature they felt asleep easily, and they reported a perfect sleep.
Nature has a powerful effect on us, it's our habitat, we're evolved into the wild. We're not adapted to cities. It's lovely to hear your podcasts.
Sleeping outside is really the best.
I wish I had a sunroom.
Grounding , earthing - it’s real.
Been listening to Tim Ferris podcast for 6 years as well as read his books. He’s been the most valuable resource on the internet to me
I extremely agree with Tim Ferriss on the significance of in-person interactions and the power of meaningful connections. Let's prioritize building genuine relationships, attending conferences, and approaching experts to expand our networks. Together, we can accomplish extraordinary things!
W take 💯
Love Tim Ferris. What a generous and open podcast this was.
Thank you Dr. Huberman and Tim. You two are instrumental in a clear, consise delivery of useful, fundamentally sound human condition improvement tools and actions. Absolutely invaluable. Thanks to both of you.

My Life actually changed when i read 4 Hour Work week, following these both 'scientists' i call them. Nothing changed me more and made me productive and fastest man in room than Tim Ferris.
I had great success following Tim's Slow-Carb Diet. This podcast encouraged me to make a video on my experience experimenting with it and reminded me that I should follow it again!
Timothy was amazing like always! Tim Tim Talk Talk For The Win!!
I think sometimes underestimate or forget how much of a positive impact Tim has had on my life. This interview reminded me of his influence. He really has been a mentor for me.
I’ve listened to many Ferris podcasts, mostly where he is playing the role of interviewer asking the great questions. Seeing him on the other side of the table I am very impressed at how much he has to offer and Huberman brought the best out of him as well. My biggest takeaway is the power of n=1 outliers whether it’s the nerd working on the next big thing, self studies, gathering anecdotes from others, and just understanding that the small sample will always come before the official study or the mainstream.
Love the commentary about the mind and time sucking power of social media, no kidding! As an ADDer, I’ve had to ignore these things for years because they’re so distracting! First I just muted all notifications, but I’ve had to take it one step further and set “app limits” so my phone tells me when I’m done for the day. I give about 15 mins per each, FB, and IG. TH-cam, that’s educational so, that one gets an hour.
Thanks for the amazing interview guys!
This is just whaou! I personally find that this has so much depth, honest reflection, a relaxed focused energy of mutual friendship, respect and investigative curiosity.... It is honey for my mind, soul and body.... I savour it in small chunks... and certainly going to relisten.... I already take notes and reflect whilst listening.... One of the best ever youtube podcasts.... And 4 hours is not too long.... Here quantity and quality go hand in hand...
Amazing episode. Big hug for Tim, for being vulnerable in front of the whole world. This is real courage. It is not that often when a man is speaking with an open heart about sensible private feelings and trauma. ❤ Thank you for this vulnerability.
What a fantastic encounter. Happiness ripples out of this podcast.
I love how these neat coping tools and terminologies can shunt the whole problem of truth and meaning into the long grass.
Wow this podcast brought me to tears. two (traditionally considered) macho men who are also both so brilliant are also so vulnerable.
Thank you
Watching Huberman go all ‘fanboy’ was deffinitely worth the watch. 😂
I haven't even started watching and my mind is already exploding - im so happy and excited i think tears are coming to my eyes
I was really starting to spiral into a depression and this podcast just corrected my course! Feeling inspired again, thanks so much!
I love how generous Tim is with sharing all the little details of his day to day routine that have led to his success. Such a great jumping off point. What a wonderful conversation! Thank you Tim and Andrew!

Ahh Chat GPT
How I fear you
Let me count the ways ; )
Ha ha ha
Thanks so much for the summary. Can’t listen where I am so this was helpful for me.
My apologies I was asleep at the start but once I woke up before my alarm this kept me wide awake and enthralled. What two wonderfully engaging people. Truly inspiring.
Two amazing men who are truly transforming the lives of so many for the better.
I found one of the most powerful and incontrovertible truths in Tim’s story about suicide is an insight into dark perspectives. It’s like mud on the lens of perception but you’re too stupid to see that’s it’s mud. Everything just looks shitty. Even when we suspect delusions, we hold on to them with the strings of our emotions or the broken synapses of logical thought.
Tim is by most metrics a very successful guy. And yet has been plagued by depression, thoughts of self loathing, and planned to initiate an act of personal nihilism.
Tim’s story is proof that the dark mind can’t always be trusted. It casts delusions. But with strength, courage and meaning, you can emerge from those delusions. Its not just delusion though. It’s also a steering wheel driving into darkness or light.
It’s an admirable story and gives hope backed by evidence for many who meander in the shadows of nihilism.
I took so many notes from this - thank you Tim and Andrew! Thought I'd share:
**Questions for interviewing**
1. What are the nerds on the topic doing after a particularly long work day or work week? (ask Adam)?
2. What are rich people doing now that normal people might be doing in 10 years?
3. Where are people piecing together awkward solutions? Where are people cobbling together awkward solutions? Is there room for innovation there?
Ask EXPERTS!!
1. Who are two of your close friends or thinkers you pay a lot of attention to that are on the bleeding edge of something
**Internal advice:**
What type of mini books would be of interest to me personally?
Where do I want to be located physically? What will help?
Work from 9pm to 4am?
Focus on face to face interaction to build network, not online. It’s underutilised
“If I could never talk about this, would I still want to do this?”
What would you do if you knew you were going to fail?
Easier to stress test your own certainty or beliefs when they are captured on paper
“What might this look like if this were easy?” Write it down.
Who would you like to learn from? Know where you want to go.
Unless you schedule things that you claim are important, they're gonna get crowded out by bullshit
I find that my ability to be still and calm is eroded if I am too easily able to escape boredom
**Technical stuff:**
Scrivener - check out program
Gather research docs and drafts
Three asterixis fit stuff you want to revisit
Learn more about Seth Godin
**Talk to Moderator instead of speaker**
Is there anyone here you think I would get along with I could buy a coffee? Would you mind making the intro?
Aim: learn skills and actually becoming friends with someone, when you approach them
Repeat and meet new people
Immediate actions:
Book - Gold Rumi
Learn - Seth Godin stuff
Great notes!
Huberman x Ferriss.. my younger self would be surprised that this conversation took so long to happen 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
This ought to be the most watched episode on this channel soon.
This was just what I needed for a long meandering weekend walk. Thanks brothers.
I have no words to describe! What a great, honest, communicative and just fantastic episode! I found it inspirational, generous and just so human. This is just exceptional honesty and work by a man who HAS and IS doing his work and imporvmenet. Thank you Tim and Andrew!
Such a treasure to be able to share in the wisdom of two brilliant and inspirational thinkers. Thank you for everything you do Dr. Huberman!
As someone who used to write late at night for years and then tried to shift my writing times to a more "normal" schedule but as a result became really unproductive, I was so glad to hear him speak on this. I'm thankful that he told it straight that "writers will avoid writing" because I used to beat myself up about it.
which part of the video was this? I also work at night and feel the most productive then. thanks!
I also think I'm more productive at night! But I had to resist that due to Andrew's recommendations on good night sleep!
I'm a teacher watching how to learn because you can always improve yourself.
Amazing! Hopefully you are one of the rare good teachers left and not just another cog in the indoctrination machine!
@C.R.E.A.M. I'm teaching on TH-cam and online face to face I refuse to work for the government lol
Thank you for being a teacher looking to improve themselves. I've had many teachers that I challenged on ideas and they never budged.
Great to hear I'm not the only one 😅😊
I liked this one a lot. Then at 3 hours I began crying. Thank you very, very much Tim.....
Because I know someone will read these comments, some dot points:
My dog story: had to raise two children before we went from never having a dog (for five decades) to Border Collie.
We're doing ok; especially because he takes me for long morning walks in direct sunlight especially in the cold of winter.
Now looking to see just how much more I can train each other to do, 'cause he already knows how to herd chickens, cats, magpies and me.
More importantly I feel this is the lowest entropy way to let Tim know that he can add a +1 as to people that he has helped with dark thoughts with his blog post those years ago.
Wabi-Sabi. We're all different, it gives me something to talk about and thank you both for being as thorough and authentic as you are.
Andrew - what an amazing podcast with Tim Ferriss - I listened to it all in one go. I usually fall asleep within 30 minutes and have to re-listen to your podcasts many times. This one I listened in one go! Needless to say I’ve been awake
since 1 am lol. Now getting out of bed for work. Thanks for the introduction to Tim Ferris.
I’m a simple man, I see Tim Ferriss, I watch and take note 😊
Truly insightful podcast!
Tim is a national treasure, and must be protected at all costs
This was truly an inspirational conversation. Listening to Tim talk about the reason that made him share some of the hardships he's been through moved me, on one hand, and learning about Cock Punch and the unexpected and creative way that the title reflected an aspect of a fantasy story, on the other, made me realize how versatile, brave and intelligent Tim is. And you are an excellent interviewer, Andrew. Thank you both for this episode.
It was great to hear Tim on the other side for a change. He's the podcasting goat IMO.
On the benefits of exercising in nature, gardening can be an amazing way of tapping into similar types of benefits, when travel options are limited. Lots of good research to support how effective it is.
That podcast was such a treat … thanks guys for being so generous…
Two of my mentors having an amazing conversation! 🙏💪
I think the discussions between Dr. Huberman and Tim Ferriss are my favourite :)
So does Dr. Huberman have a child then, considering what he said in the end? Happy for him, he'd be a great father :) And so will Tim Ferriss :)
Tim, Andrew: two outstanding gentlemen. I listened to all of this. Excellent podcast.
Never seen Huberman so delighted with guest appearance at his podcast as he did with Tim! It’s so good when crash shows up innit😂
This is the best video all over the you tube.
How lucky and fortunate we have this free life changing information
Appreciate so many of your guests & what they have to share. Suggestion: please bring on a few more guests who have experience as an older person. I’m 59 & while I’ve learned much from most of your guests & you, I’ve not heard from an aging person’s perspective (except Dr. Attia who occasionally mentions because of practice exposure). Thanks & keep up the great work!!
Good Morning! I am so excited for this one! My two FAVORITE podcasters!!
3:00:23 Feeling like you want to kill yourself is no worse than other big feelings. It only becomes dangerous if you don’t believe that you are connected to anyone, that your being alive really matters to someone. Talking about it is a step toward connection.
No one would ever hurt someone else unless she or he had been deeply hurt and not able to discharge and heal from it. This also applies to hurting yourself. People struggling with suicidal feelings do not deserve any criticism or judgment. Even the people who have killed themselves deserve no blame. I would like to see suicide thought of as murder carried out by the oppressive society, which keeps people hurting and unable to connect and heal.
Disagree. The most important promise I've made, deep in the depths of suicidal depression, was to my mom promising I'd never hurt myself. Suicide is a fundamentally selfish, though nonetheless tragic act. However, I believe it is made more acceptable by placing the blame outside yourself, whether on society or circumstance. Taking responsibility and accepting your agency are antidotes to depression, not contributors. You can be compassionate and hold people accountable simultaneously.
@@TheBswanthat’s easy to say when you had a mother who cared. The people who carried through felt loved by none. Why would such a downtrodden abandoned person have obligation to those around them? Why would someone choose to die if anything had made it worth living? You can’t think your way out of depression, and blaming the victim doesn’t do anything except inflict more pain. More likely you rode out the depressive episode with support from loved ones.
I’m not trying to invalidate your experience, but it’s incredibly insulting that you assume everyone in a suicidal state had caused their own misery and could escape from it. When I was a teen I couldn’t do anything except make plans to jump. It comes from having no escape in a world where no one cared and everyone just pointed fingers. I got better when, guess what, my circumstances changed. I moved out, got friends, wasn’t systematically excluded in school for having acne and a limp, didn’t have mentally ill parents constantly screaming that “if you’re gonna be crazy do it somewhere else and stop bothering us”
Thank you for sharing!
Also - my only suggestion on this otherwise great interview - can we please see Molly next time? 😍 I was SO keen when you both started referencing this gorgeous studio visitor, I was waiting for the camera to tilt down! Haaaa. 😂
My two favorite podcasters. What a joy and a gift to the world. Thank you both so much for what you do!
Mr. Huberman, I would love to see you and Dr. Nadine Burke Harris regarding one of her book, “Healing the Long-Term Effects of Childhood Trauma and Adversity”. It would be so interesting watching you talk regarding the ACE study and so on.
Hope this recommendation finds you well Mr. Huberman!!
Highly recommend the Tim Ferris podcast with Susan Garrett - fabulous podcast on interspecies communication and living with and training dogs!
Brilliant. I hear you guys on this cast, and it feels like the world will be alright. I can't put into words how much I enjoyed this... Bravo gents, bravo.
Its so evident that Andrew admires him and that Andrew is a fan
Dr Huberman is so much in love with Tim 😂
Tim, the man, such a student of life :) thank you for sharing all that
Nobody can become financially successful overnight. They put in background work but we tend to see the finished part. Fear is a dangerous component, hindering us from taking bold steps we need in other to reach our goals. you have to contend with inflation, recession, decisions from the Feds and all. I was able to increase my portfolio by $289k in months. You have to seek for help in the right places.
I think it's not always about fear, Sometimes realistic factors discourage people from reaching their goals in life. For instance, I've tried investing in the stock market several times but always got discouraged by fluctuations of stock value
The best course of action if you lack market knowledge is to ask a consultant or investing coach for guidance or assistance. Speaking with a consultant helped me stay afloat in the market and grow my portfolio to about 65% since January, even though I know it sounds obvious or generic. I believe that is the most effective way to enter the business at the moment.
please who is the consultant that assist you with your investment and if you don't mind, how do I get in touch with them?
'Carol Vivian Constable, a highly respected figure in her field. I suggest delving deeper into her credentials, as she possesses extensive experience and serves as a valuable resource for individuals seeking guidance in navigating the financial market.
She appears to be well-educated and well-read. I ran an online search on her name and came across her website; thank you for sharing.
Great interview from two of the GOATs. Thank you!
A beautiful conversation between two true friends. I could see the excitement you both had in speaking to each other and I find it magical that we get to sit in.
Thank you two for the content. I am a medical doctor (psychiatrist) from Brazil and your knowledge helps me a lot opening my views about many things. Really helpful. Thanks.

Thanks!
For someone with ADHD, this episode ended too soon. Incredible how this conversation went through so many unexpected topics. thank you both for doing what you do.
Also, looking forward to the series on mental health!
one of the only multi hour podcasts I've watched/listened to in its entirety, and probably will be added to my list of rewatches
33:08 Dr Huberman, Athletic Green is no doubt a good product and the pricing, which is on the high side of expensive and I assume, in some accordance with that quality you propose it has. Having said that, it’s just not expensive, it’s ridiculously expensive and well out of my reach 💸
Amazing guest! Amazing interview and discussion!
This'll be the one of the best collabs of all time ever! Thank you for your efforts, Mr. Huberman.
Masterclass right here people 📢
I started listening to your podcast 4 months ago and I found it amazing.
There are some parts about the vegan and vegetarian diet in some episodes but I don't find any podcast discussing particularly that. I would love to see a podcast on vegetarian and vegan diets and what to be mind full of in terms of biochemistry and neurology.
Thank you for your amazing podcast.
Yes, that would be nice
Tim is really a selfless hero! 🙂
With their powers combined, I present to you! The Ferris-Huberman Process for living! No excuses anymore, folks... Get your sh*t together!
Good afternoon from London, listening to this during the day while working at home. Grateful for this podcast🙏.
Loved this episode, listened to parts of it twice to let it soak in. Please bring him back for another round or even Q&A would be amazing!
