50% Facts with Silent Mike & Jim McD

Prompted by a Reddit question, we talked through the impact of reducing attempts from three attempts per lift to two attempts per lift. Would meets move faster? Would warmup rooms be chaos? We also compared the top 10 Canadian athletes and the top 10 Texan athletes. Can one state beat a whole country? Sebastian Brambila (@sebastian_brambila) ran the board and chimed in on this one.

This week’s question comes from Mike’s Instagram: “How do you organize your thoughts, wants, and plans when you’re building a business.” Everybody has their own personal organizational approaches (with varying degrees of success). We talk about what has worked for us. Sebastian Brambila (@sebastian_brambila) ran the board and chimed in on this one. Do you have a question for one of our Friday “One Good Question” episodes?

It looks like changes are afoot. Instagram may be changing how its algorithm serves up shared (versus original) content. Will this entirely change the meme game? We also ran down lists of the most intelligent animals and discussed some more surprising genetic traits (in humans). Sebastian Brambila (@sebastian_brambila) ran the board and chimed in on this one.

We’ve always been told not to judge a book by its cover, but does that stop us? No! Even when it’s not a good idea. Why do we make these judgments? We look at three physical characteristics that humans tend to let themselves be influenced by when judging the people we meet. Some things can be changed through reasonable effort (getting muscles), but others are much tougher (or impossible). Is being more muscular always a plus?

If short lifters can use blocks under their feet in competition, why can’t tall lifters use a taller bench? That’s just one example, but when you take a closer look there are definitely some things that don’t make sense. We also talk NBA, Taylor Swift, local crime, and bidets.

Ryan Thompson is a plumber. He’s actually Jim’s plumber. But he didn’t plan to be a plumber. After fighting through addiction, a chance moment at a gas station led to a path forward for him. Locking in on new goals -- and relying on discipline learned through sports and in the gym --- he found a rewarding trade and career that changed his life. He shares how he worked through this change and how he maintains his contagious positivity. You can follow Ryan on Instagram at @rhinorooterplumbing.

Recent studies (https://www.theguardian.com/society/2024/apr/02/new-science-of-death-brain-activity-consciousness-near-death-experience) show that the brain is furious with activity in the minutes after death. Areas of the brain that don’t generally work together suddenly team up, and the visual cortex is particularly active. If your brain is going to show you a burst of images immediately after the rest of your body has checked out, what would you want to see?

We’ve seen people on social media, TV, etc. talk about their “porn addiction.” Most people nod their heads as if they believe and understand what the person is going through. Addiction is addiction, right? But…several years ago, scientists stopped believing in the condition. Studies didn’t support that it exists, and there’s no way to diagnose it. Why are people still saying they have it if it doesn't exist? Do they really believe it, or are they virtue signaling?

While this is technically the 400th episode of the show, we’re treating it more like the “faux-hundredth” because we’ve used “rewind” episodes 11 times since we started. Look for something (hopefully) for our 400th episode of original content. We talked through the recent New York Magazine article about Andrew Huberman, the legal issues hounding Sean “P Diddy” Combs, and the arguably cultish support for them on social media. Why do people look for heroes outside themselves?

The exploding popularity of weight-loss drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy has raised awareness and demand for these “medical miracles” among the severely overweight…and the not-so-severely overweight. Some questions have arisen about side effects – some merely annoying and some potentially dangerous. One complaint is the loss of lean muscle mass. While this is obviously not ideal, is there something specific about these drugs that contributes to muscle loss, or is it nothing more than a normal effect of weight loss by any method? How can it be prevented? Listener resources: Survey of studies on weight loss and muscle loss vs fat loss. Do you have a question for one of our Friday “One Good Question” episodes?
