Ep 63 - Heat Wave Hacks
Notas do episódio
In this episode, Eric and Lauren work through a batch of health-and-wellness headlines with their usual skepticism, covering viral "heatwave hacks" (damp sheets, yogurt on windows), a study claiming gossip is "good for you," a doomsday-prepping wellness trend, a face-scanning "longevity mirror" they technically invented, and whether biological-age tests and the famous "blue zones" hold up. Plenty of tangents along the way, including Homo naledi, reality dating shows, and Eric's inability to stay awake during interesting documentaries.
