Seems to be the nature of the beast sadly. Huberman, Attia, Ferris, to me all started in super niche subjects and now it's like anyone can come on. I've lost interest in almost all podcasts now because they've all converged into one hive mind of read the stoics, lift weights, do an ice bath, blah blah blah.

It’s the trap of the weekly science/academic podcast. There isn’t enough science, they eventually run through their expertise, their friends’ expertise, but they gotta keep cranking podcasts out. Quality inevitably goes downhill. Most of them become part of the book-promotional podcast circuit. Just look at EconTalk.

If you're going to attempt to provide information for maximizing the a human life experience and want to do so based on empirical data that is pretty much where you will inevitably end up.

I mean, these are generally true so kind of good they are part of hive mind.
