What's TRULY amazing is the people will listen to 2 to 3 hours of in depth discussion on a single topic, especially at such a high academic level. People are starving for real information
2/3 of the US population can not read at a 6th grade level. That's according to the department of education. People are starving for something, but it ain't "real information" and "real information" doesn't come from podcasts or youtube videos. That's info-tainment for the illiterate.
Absolutely! 💯
100% what it is about
No, lots of people are suffering from stress, sleep and lots of other psychological issues that’s why they listen to Huberman. They don’t care for any academic info like engineering.
It's true
He might have saved me from alcoholism and depression and who knows ? Suicide. Thanks to him I now have better habits, do resistance training first thing in the morning, eat balanced meals and take the time to watch the rising sun, spend more time outside and keep away from alcohol. My mood is changing, I even feel happy sometimes, my sleep is starting to improve too but its the harshest part. He's a great source of inspiration and a healing presence. Plus I practice my english listening to him 🙂(I'm french)
Kudos to you and that's a great endorsement!
Way to go!
🎉 that's epic...he gave you the info and you did the work big time. Huge respect ❤
Content pour toi j'ai téléchargé ses podcast mais j'arrête pas de regarder les vidéos d' AbanPreach actuellement du coup j'ai encore écouté aucun podcast.
Who was it that called Huberman a stray ferret , yes Rich Roll! And so Andrew Huberman did suffer in his formative years and paid his serious dues, and so now he professes science for a living! I definitely trust him although from trying many of his tips over the years, I think some of the hacks seem better on paper than in reality. Like you don’t have to turn all the lights down in order to sleep! Nor drink plain salt water upon waking just to fire up your nervous system, or even the early morning cortisol spike!
Andrew is a true scientist with a pure heart and a clear conscious. That is enough for trust. What makes him worthwhile to listen to is his talent for teaching and the ability to arrange cutting edge science into topics to be digestable for wide audience, while at the same time not loosing out on freaks who want to dive deep. The selection and quality of guests is unheard of.
he's just another fake guru. Sorry.
Amen to that!
@@jloiterer how?
@@jloiterer he's an actual teacher that's knows what he's talking about
@@jloiterer Yeah, just like all those other tenured professors at Stanford University - what a quack!
The answer to your question is, Andrew actually cares about improving people's lives and that shows. Also, he is great at communicating a huge amount of information in simple chunks.
Been following AH through IG and never miss a single podcast. It's not overnight, it's a lot of hard work, honesty and well thought out content delivered impeccably.
He explained this in one of his podcasts. He wears the same boring shirt and simple background because the focus should be on the information according to him.
@@MelvinJoosten26 true, and that's also the same reason why he never shows his arms: het got full sleeve tattoos, wrist to shoulder, on both arms. He think that showing them would be distracting and.. he got a point probably
He also takes about mental health orders and science as if there was any science, and says zero about environmental factors. Basically he spews the pseudoscience rhetorical non sense that psychiatry has done in the guise of science, with no science to back his claims.
@@albussd I meant since his Instagram days :)
@@sonals2021 Ah OK.
"Thank you for your interest in science." I have loved every episode of his podcast. He is humble, listens carefully to his guests and he has a very interesting history. He is also a meditator and while not many meditators have his intellect, when you combine meditation and high intellect, you get a very thoughtful and insightful podcaster. I remember him talking about his not-too-stellar teenage years on the Adversity Advantage. That's a great podcast too!
He's stellar!!
What's a Mediator?
Do you mean he'a an INFP?
@@jrcmes She actually wrote Meditator ...So he practices some kind of meditation...In My opinion if he has a daily practice that increases his enteroception,then his Scientific research and insights are likely enhanced...Meditation can improve creativity as well as intuition ..Creativity and intuition are good qualities for everyone and no less so for Scientists
@@niven7019 which is why I would disagree with the statement that not many meditators have his intellect. I would say it’s the opposite.
Andrew has quickly become my go-to source for practical scientific information. His rise has been absolutely insane but I also feel like I learn more from one of his podcasts than like 10 of anyone else's, so I get it.
One week of listening Huberman Lab and You can call Yourself a 'biohacker' 😎
@@karolwasilewski6920 I mean it’s not biohacking, it’s really just simple biology. Andrew really doesn’t like the term biohacking either because it means you are using a bodily function for another purpose. Not only is that unsustainable but most of the time real “biohacking” isn’t very effective.
He's awesome. Aside from a couple of guests, his podcast has outstanding content!
He changed my life for the better. I hope he can maintain these 80 hour workweeks. I think he has a huge impact on the world. He's giving people the motivation to do something by telling them why and how. Love the guy
80 hours? What do you do
@@foreverhappiness3396 they mean Huberman works 80 hours doing research, teaching, and podcasting.
80 hour workweek sounds f*cked up! When does he live? It is not an ideal to strive for, only if you want to die in a heart attack at 52!
@@rogerforsman5064 80h a month is perfect...
he’s so objective and straightforward when talking about science. he is not trying to make it entertaining, he gives what the studies say while making it relatable to daily life
While he references studies, he often uses one off animal studies to make his point, rather than meta analysis, system reviews, or even robust human research. He turns it into popular science because it's often very poorly researched topics.
lol, he's a political extremist who regularly espouses pseudoscience
My problem with him is that he never really delves into these studies and that's sus, you can't just say "this one study says" and take it as gospel, you need to show the study and how it was conducted, was it replicated? was it a human trial? was it a meta analysis? otherwise you're just peddling pop science to your audience, a one off study on animals isn't nearly enough to draw any meaningful conclusions at all and it's just dishonest to pretend otherwise
Andrew huberman is a pure, down to earth, non egotistical proffessor and biologist . I’ve been listening to him for years on other pods way before joe rogan and rich roll. I learn a lot from him and his podcasts soothe me as well. He prepares extremely for these episodes. You can tell. He’s the best
Totally! Thanks for the perspective Gab!
Your putting joe rogan in the same Category as Huberman. Lol 😅
Andrew is a great guy.
@@katie_moore it’s not surprising at all that he had a rapid and explosive growth out of nowhere. Just look at his name and look at how many podcast he went on back to back simultaneously almost like he is well-connected in that circle of people or something. The majority of people that go on Joe Rogan podcast or a certain type of people and that’s about as much as I can say. It almost seems like a big coincidence that these type of people get big out of nowhere, and always find a way to get in very high positions with above average capabilities. It almost seems like these people are part of something bigger than most people understand. That’s about as much as I can say, you guys can connect the dots from there if you know, you know, if you don’t, then I’ve reached my limit of explanation unfortunately. 😊
@@ZxAMobile hahaha! Connect the dots? Your tinfoil hat is a bit tight.
Aside from his calm demeanour, pleasant voice and education, I feel that his teaching style as a professor and experience in his field lends to making his podcasts enjoyable as well. He’s patient, steps in to clarify for listeners and is such a gracious host. He doesn’t talk over his guests, he lays out his questions and the reasons behind them before giving the floor. He’s welcoming if a guest goes off tangent and nicely bring the topic back around. It’s nice to hear 2 professionals chatting and bonding over their love of their respective fields with the goal of helping and educating people.
I can see why he’s become successful in this particular ecosystem :)
He is sincere, and an excellent teacher! I've learned so much from his podcast, not just the topics he discovered, but also his communication skills and the way he delivers scientific information.
not true
Andrew isn't a complete mystery. He was a passionate skateboarder when he was younger. On the skateboard podcast "The Nine Club" He gave a lot of insight into his younger self.
Yeah this was exactly my thought. I saw him on the nine club and before that he had a podcast with another big professional skateboarder about his days back in San Francisco as a teenager.
Yeah I know him from skateboarding tbh
Ha ha.. Huberman out here ‘taking souls’ with humility, Goggins style. He’s a treasure
I really like the breakdown and analysis of him and his podcasting style. There was some information that was a little bit off because I have seen interviews of him or he talks about his adolescence but overall I think you hit the nail on the head when discussing his podcast style and how he delivers information to the viewers/listeners.
I love his podcast. Starts from his calm voice to his obvious effort of making sure everything he says is based on proven science and when at the end he says "thank you for your interest in science", I love it! I found the content heavy, so I need to sit and listen or watch his UA-cam. Not like other podcasts that I run, cook... and listen to them.
I know he is only human but I think he deserves honor 🎖 for all his efforts in bringing free of cost knowledge to humanity. I really admire and respect him as a person.
@@vilelive I've learned many various things from watching his channel.
@@vilelive getting out early to see and get sunlight.
Andrew explains things so well, he seems very genuine and well meaning. Plus he's really good looking and humble. Yep, another viewer with a crush 😍
Hahaha throughout the episode I kept wondering if you’re insinuating that he can’t be trusted. Thank you for making this video. I’ve had my share of fallacies which led me into several echo chambers but Andrew’s research and conviction to deliver it have stood the test of time. I follow as many protocols as I can on a daily basis and I’ve been healthier than ever before.
I'm curious what specific things worked well for you if you don't mind sharing
@Amy TRIO great to hear that you and your family are doing well. I definitely need to work on my sleep schedule.
I leave every and each episode with a handful of new ideas and free tools!! Huberman lab podcast rocks! Also Lex`s podcast is great.
Andrew was recommended to me by my MD in Australia
and just before seeing this I was looking at Thorne product ingredients and its giving me a more thorough understanding of what nutrients are needed for certain conditions.
SPOT ON! I love his podcast and quote it all the time in my little videos and refer back to it all the time. Kudos to us all!
Yes! Thanks for sharing!!
I will have to check him out. I haven't heard about him, but I appreciate your thoughtful comments and bringing new information to my awareness.
Woohoo! I've now introduced at least one person to Andrew Huberman! My work here is done 😂
Thanks Celeste! Enjoy his podcast. One of his interviews on another podcast is a great place to start
so far i find the lab podcast very nice to listen to at work
that said i have to watch them multiple times often because im a machinist and my focus cannot be perfectly split between information retention and reacting in time to not scrap my job
Thank you for not being a hater. Huberman deserves and has earned every second of exposure he gets.
I love your take on this. I think his timing was impeccable. During a time when many were not only more focused on their own health, but also feeling confused and disappointed by the public health messaging, he comes in with his science-backed facts, kind demeanor, and straightforward presentation. Just what many of us needed.
I was following him long before his podcast, and when he announced he was going to start one, I could not have been more enthusiastic. I was one of his first subscribers and have started my Monday mornings off with him every week since. I appreciate how he has not strayed from his original format, works hard to protect his privacy while occasionally letting us in (like when Costello passed away), and gives us the impression that he will only continue to do this if he feels he can do it well.
I love Joe, Rich, and Sam (Harris), but Andrew is my absolute favorite. Thank you for doing such a great job explaining why. :)
Thank you for sharing Cari! 💯 agree! I look forward to every new episode too!
@Jaden Almeida Rich Roll
Wow, this video articulated feelings I’ve been having for years! Appreciate your take on Huberman and the health podcast space. I listened to asprey/ greenfield for years but it got to the point where I felt like I was constantly being marketed to, so I stopped listening entirely. Hubermans podcasts have been incredibly refreshing. Glad to see you highlight the importance of trust and how well Huberman has built that with his audience.
Thanks Preston!! Yeah I still listen to asprey or greenfield on occasion but I use them to discover things.. I no longer use them to differentiate good from bad products or habits. It's kind of sad.
I've followed his youtube since his very first video. I think he's very popular because he delivers tons of free actionable content. He speaks in a way that make complicated topics really digestible too. It's really important to seem relatable and down to earth... hell, even approachable or attractive (personality.)
The day i watched one of his videos the past jun 2, after that video I just stopped smoking, after 27 years of addiction. He deserves the best in life for such a great job he does!
He’s incredibly articulate and explains things so clearly at any level. He’s an inspiration.
He is the person we need right now!
I am learning so much from him. Extremely valuable person!
Katie, I can't believe you did a video on probably my favorite Podcast person and Podcast. His Podcast is about giving to the audience genuinely, not a platform based or driven on his self-interest primarily (like Tim Ferris). I listen to both Tim & Andrew, and I can tell you that my listening rate is double or even triple with Andrew's Podcasts, I specifically carve out time to listen to his podcast. When I am done with Andrew's podcast, I feel like I have gained organic knowledge, awareness, something to think about, and actionable items that literally work in the real world immediately. I am able to curate my habits, my thoughts, and my actions and rate/score myself accurately. I am able to suss out the bull-*s peddled by bro-hacking podcasts. He is also seemingly (and feels) like a genuine man, he does not commodify his listeners and he respects us as listeners and does not take us for granted. Most podcasts feel like it's between them and the guests and we just happened to be listening but they are not "talking to us" they are talking to each other! Most bro podcasts are like this! Not Andrew, he is talking to us, he is with us, and his format is tailored around us his audience, and helping us. You have to admit this is a very self-aware man, on top of being intelligent. As a person who has worked in research, I appreciate that Andrew cites his sources in full, in real-time and he shares his own opinion about other people's work critically and explains to us how to interpret studies and findings and what they may be lacking. I could go on but these are some of the reasons I watch/listen to Andrew. My original reason which I will forever be grateful for is that he helped me change my life, so he has impacted me greatly. That is something no wearable/tracker can help you do, it doesn't talk to you. He helps you to synthesize the inner workings of your brain. Also, I feel soooo much better after talking to him, he is like a dependable friend to his audience. You can trust Andrew!!!
Love this!! Sometimes it's difficult to follow people who mix opinion with information & u can't tell which is informing which...thank u for this video!!!
He is amazing, the way he explains the brain function makes me want to go back to university and "try" to become a neuroscientist!
He is humble, very well informed and sharing his vast knowledge makes him even more admirable.
I have my Huberman Lab notebook and as soon as I start listening to one of his podcasts, I start taking notes and learn along the way.
So grateful for this source of accurate, tested and tried pool of information that helps all of us to live better and get old better.
I learned about Dr H on Rich Roll's podcast. Here was this successful professor, talking about living in his car at age 18 in the parking lot of his girlfriend's dorm and realizing he needed to change his life. I am not sure how many PhD's have been semi-homeless, have been professional skateboarders (!) and are so athletic and--let's just say it--super attractive but I am going to venture the list is vanishingly small. Andrew is a rare combination and I think he knows that and is using it to promote his goal of sharing science. Good for him!
I discovered him this year when I was looking for support to stop drinking wine and I came across an episode on alcohol, he was straightforward and kept it real I appreciated that gone down that huberman rabbit hole since
Zero cost sharing resonates with many people! I know it's annoying when I watch a video and there is a side chat where people can make donations and most are worthless! Enter Huberman; he seem to be down to earth, humble, good contents, his approach gets you involved because he's very engaging. I like him and I do appreciate all his videos!
Love every episode of Huberman Labs! That rap is so funny!
Agreed!
His style to do a literature review/synthesis of evidenced based research on topics and his teaching style are the appeal. It’s like taking his class for free ! Sign me up !!💙
I loved this commentary of the “Huberman Lab” when l first saw his video times (they are over too hrs), but it’s always worth my time. ❤
Your assessment of the podcast space is spot on! Great insight. Thanks!
He is honest and humble. That is why we love him, in a world of lies and unethical manipulation.
i love all your videos. you do a great job of communicating
Wow! Thanks so much Kurt! I put so much effort into my writing, and how I communicate the ideas I’m trying to convey. It’s really great to hear that it’s being well received!
I just heard about AH fairly recently. Very good points raised here - especially about the importance of forging trust and leading with intention. Thanks!
Thanks - the way you laid out the difference Huberman's podcasts. vs. others is really helpful!
I love Huberman Lab and ive subscribed to your channel for the same reason as you did to Huberman. You are trustworthy and have integrity. If I watch your videos I never get the impression that you want to sell me bullshit to make money but rather give honest reviews for products im actually interested in. When something is not as good as advertised you call it out. When I hear some sales pitch from Asprey & Co i usually come here first to get a good idea of what product is actually like 👍keep up the good work
Thank you for distilling Huberman's effort into a powerful summary of the value his podcast brings to regular people (like me).
Appreciate your insight. This was a fantastic analysis, very eloquently stated. Thank you. Well done.
I totally agree. The Huberman Lab podcast is the only podcast I listen to on a regular basis. I listen to it every week on my phone in my car during a drive of any length. It's all about the content. I not only find the content interesting, I usually find it fascinating!
Yep, I can honestly say that I have changed so many habits over the past year and have attained a higher quality of life because of the Huberman Lab. Cannot attribute that to any other podcast.
I never leave comments but AH is amazing. At times, however, I find my self wishing I can see visuals or images to go along with his talk. Being a biology professor myself I know the importance of visuals.. But since this is a podcast we're speaking of and not a classroom the lack of visuals is fine, plus the way he explains science is so visual that one doesn't need any. I'm sure he used visuals in his classroom lectures tho😉
AH would probably say “train your brain not to need the dopamine hir of visuals. You are in control, not your mind.” Haha! Legend
Im very grateful to him. Im from Ecuador, I recommend him to most of my friends. The interview with Anna Lambke is powerful
Thank you, I really appreciate your "take" on Huberman and love for science!
His practices have saved my personal and professional life.
Coming from a medical education and elite athletic background, working with many top coaches around the world I wish i had access to Andrews knowledge decades ago. Brilliant man with on point public speaking skill sets. He's on the top of my podcast subscriptions.
Maybe if they taught this in biology ppl would be more interested. Math > all for now for me
Guys like Andrew are sharing what's the truth will be craving truth from being in our indoctrination camps we called schools 🏫
Omg I got a bit worried there! I love this guy's podcasts. It's quite intriguing and informative.
Love Andrew Huberman's podcast. Very well spoken and informative I listen to it throughout the day.
I'm new to listening to podcasts after being introduced Ben Greenfield and that is actually how I came to your channels on UA-cam and prefer it because I feel like a lot of the other health and biohacking podcasters are spending a lot of time trying to sell products. Thanks for this video. 🌷
I'm from Brazil. And I do listen to every episode from HLP . During the critical phase COVID hit here, was Huberman's content that helped me to get through it because I kind of got crazy not being able to sleep normally and all the time worried trying not getting sick. He's an amazing person with a genuine motivation on helping people.
🔥🔥🔥 thanks for posting this I agree he helped me through Covid
Eu to hubermanizado
I have learned so much about my mental health thanks to Andrew, he is a great additive to the podcast space and is a fantastic communicator.
This video is worth watching, so do so.
But the short answer to the title question is A BIG YES!
This is the first video I watched from you, and I loved it! Really nice, articulated, and engaging style, It's very refreshing to find this kind of video on UA-cam. Thanks
You have a wonderful smile indeed, great video, very easy to watch. love the way to speak and emphasize your key points, while using great tonal changes, super duper duper engaging to listen to honestly.
Side note, I love huberman, slowly working through his content as a former alcoholic with depressive episodes etc
Sober nearly 10 months, he has helped a lot with life changes for me :) been great.
Was hoping to hear a big yes to that question . Since he is so detailed and professional .
I've only just started listening to his podcast a few weeks ago, and I watch him on UA-cam whilst having breakfast every morning (not just for the info, but also because he's nice to look at haha) and I've taken a bunch of stuff that he spoke about regarding sleep and wakefulness and have implemented it in my daily routine, and it's actually helped a lot with being awake and alert during the day, getting up when I plan to in the morning and getting sleepy earlier at night 😊 Looking forward to the things I'll be learning throughout the rest of his episodes.
I love learning about science especially neuroscience, a field that reveals few practical applications to everyday life.
I appreciate Huberman's podcast presented as it is, primarily because information is based on the highest standard of peer-reviewed research. This is important because there's so much hearsay for decades about what's best for maximizing health.
Huberman is just not that mysterious.
So why don't you have him on your show?
He's revealed his backstory growing up.
His father, a physicist, influenced him to become a scientist who studies the brain.
His parents divorced, which led his mother to be depressed and disconnected from him. His father moved to Europe.
He was into skateboarding and hanging with that crowd when he lacked direction as a teen.
Around 19 years of age, he decided to get serious about his education, and he connected with mentors who encouraged him along the way.
Huberman has said several times that he has depressive tendencies, is an omnivore, takes naps, uses yoga nidra to fall asleep, lifts weights and uses supplements.
He emphasizes scientific research in order to provide evidence for tips he uses himself that could help others. Since he's a professor at a top university Stanford, it's not shocking to me that he wants to let his audience know his podcast is not part of his day job.
He reveals most personal details when he's a guest on Tim Ferriss, Joe Rogan, Lex Fridman, et al...other podcasts besides his own.
A comparable podcaster is Lex Fridman also a PhD. Lex shares a little more personal information in his podcast space.
He interviews various scientists and intellectuals on politics and economics, emphasizing computer science, AI, machine learning and their impact on society.
He also loves dogs and is friends with Huberman. His father is also a scientist.
He includes some personal experiences about Russia (he was born in Moscow) and playing guitar and interest in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, etc.
Susan! 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
Your memory!!!?? My goodness! You could be a professional introductionist (is that a thing?) I'm unsure to be scared or impressed, but I'm going with impressed. Whatever you have learned to do to strengthen your brain, please tell me! After several TBIs and an NDE, my grey matter is like mashed potatoes.
Awesome video thanks!! Huberman is incredible, and I've applied a lot of his advice to my life! He's like a walking encyclopedia, and where in this time we're living in can you capture an audience's attention for 5 hours straight?? I love it!!
Yes, great review … and a wonderful list of aspects about his podcasts
I've been watching him since his first video snd found Lex Friedman through his podcast, he's just great, I started out just wanting to learn but Andrew huberman really grew on me now I feel like listening to him even when the topic isn't the most interesting to me, he has a bery low and calming voice too
I love him. I wish his offerings were an hour like he used to do. But now I can make my own clips for my hypnosis and coaching clients to watch the most pertinent material to their personal journey.
I think Andrew is helping to change the world. I’m so grateful to be alive during his time especially with UA-cam and social media he is helping so many
Thanks for this video it’s reaffirmed that we can trust and learn so much from his podcasts
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Very nice overview of podcasting built into this - well done!
He’s an awesome guy! Not just the knowledge but the willingness to help people and see people change and not charge like people do
Regarding whether or not we can trust Huberman, the salient question to ask is whether his interpretation of the scientific literature is trustworthy.
Here we need to be cautious. We never want rely on an authority figure, rather, we want to rely on authoritative data.
More often than not, Huberman presents a conservative view of the scientific literature when recommending applicable behavioral tools.
However, he has recommended some protocols that are not well supported by the literature.
For example, on JRE, he erroneously claims that the herb Turkesterone is equivalent to taking the anabolic steroid Decca, based on one outlier study that clearly had sampling errors. Ecdysteroids have shown no effects on testosterone production in all the literature.
If we were to blindly trust Huberman on his word alone, we’d all be taking Turkestorne with the false assumption that it would be equivalent to taking anabolic steroids. It isn’t, and as a result, we shouldn’t.
It’s our responsibility to be skeptical of any claims made by anyone, including celebrity scientists. Failure to do so can be dangerous for our health and safety.
Long story short, although Huberman’s intentions seem commendable, he’s human, and capable of erroneous conclusions.
Be skeptical, and seek out a broad range of interpretations of the literature.
Interesting. Maybe you should also create content. Let me know if you do.
You make a very good and important point. That may be why he chose to do his own podcast, though, so he could make sure everything was validated with good research before he spoke about it. This is much harder to do in an interview setting.
That being said, I agree 100% that it’s important to do your own follow-up work before jumping right into a new protocol. And honestly, I think he hopes and expects that most of his listeners will do that, especially as he cites and attaches the papers and studies to each episode. He has even had a couple of “corrections” from previous episodes when people have written in to point out an inaccuracy, so he leaves me with the impression that being accurate is a priority for him.
"What does this mean for you as a listener": quite an indoctrinating tone. I wonder who should trust whom here.
Well said! I think it’s also important to exercise caution when listening to topics he presents outside of his professional purview. He’s a neurobiology and ophthalmology professor, any discussions outside of those domains are going to be biased toward his interest in them. There was at least one guest episode where the “peer reviewed” studies touted to give the guest credibility were actually published with the peer review commentary and it was not at all favourable toward the study or the field in general, though Huberman and guest presented the information as gospel. I haven’t really been able to trust him since. I spend more time pouring over the studies he mentions to be sure they’re sound than I do listening to the HLP. To be fair, by doing so I’m gaining mastery in important areas of my academic trajectory. But I get little else out of his pod anymore.
What were the peer reviewed studies? Any references??
Great episode Katie! I really enjoyed your authenticity and thoughts on the space. It made me think hard about the content I've been making and how I can do it better. Thank you!
Thk u for ur perspective. It's been very helpful. He is a "science nerd" type. But it def is refreshing and challenging on many levels.
Very interesting, well explained and nicely paced video. Keep up the good work!
Very good video. I did notice he showed up all of the sudden and makes sense how he exploded so quickly. Indeed I believe he's super authentic.
Totally agree. Thanks for the comment Sara!
Thank you for saying "the sudden" - not many people get that grammatically correct!
I think he’s fab and I feel like I’m learning something and trust what he’s teaching - plus he’s got a lovely face 😍
Excellent video, and totally agree, it is always time well spent (3 hrs) to listen to his podcasts. One can also learn great communications skills on top of all science and data that is given. As an avid listener of his podcast I must say even when he recommended a product it is of great quality and benefit. I even trust his ads and carefully researched and purchased a few, and that was a great investment too. Well done Katie explaining why he is who he says he is. Thank you!
Your title intrigued me, your video and delivery captivated me, and you Got me. Excellence all around :)
I first saw him on The Nine Club Skate podcast/UA-cam. The way he explained the neuroscience of learning caught my interest. He’s also relatable. Down to earth Skater and Punk rock music. I have a crush on his brain and he’s easy on the eyes. His content is so easy to absorb that I cherry pick portions for my family of skating boys, hubby included, to listen to.
Someone I obviously need to check out. Thank you Katie.
Welcome!!
Fantastic video. Damn that's top quality review right there. The writing is great, the acting is great and the humor touch is super refined. You could review anything, I would probably watch it 😂
I just started listening to him and his insight is incrsible!
Thanks so much Katie, I think I'm going to trust this guy even more now, and you're not so bad yourself. Subbed!
Thanks!! Glad you liked the video!
You had me at “He has a Bulldog” 😊
I can say, i first saw your video about huberman about 6 or 8 month ago, and at the time i was looking for video about improving fitness and longevity. youtube recommend huberman video about addiction and how to overcome addiction, after watching his video about 2 hours and now my life start to getting better and better, far better than i could imagine i stop smoking cigarette for 12 month, stop drinking alcohol, workout and finally do some serious and intense cardio like running 5-10K.
Huberman really help me when im in my lowest point, and now im feeling and doing better than before. all i wanna say is
You can trust my guy Huberman.
He is an awesome person and scientist, I always listen to him while running or travelling it´s such a wonderful way to make good use of my time.
Thank you for stating the obvious Katie! Spot on! I think all Huberman Podcast viewers have already figured this out though and already trust the authenticity, integrity and credibility of his content. The only reason I got halfway through your video is because you were talking about him and I thought you knew something I didn't! Anticlimax! 🙂
Anyone has a link to video “Can you trust Katie Type A”?
Excellent review
Thank you for sharing this
Thought this was going to be a click-bait hit job... Actually really good video, you did your homework. THANKS
This my second time watching .. I find you speaking my thoughts on him, you have an engaging storytelling style, love it & keep it up.
thanks so much! That means the world. I love being able to tell stories and have always thought of myself as a journalist 1st.
This could have been said in 2 minutes.
Some people will do whatever for content. 🤦🏾♀️
She could've just said "I'm a fan"
Beautifully put
When’s your next video Katie? Eagerly waiting 😊
I do miss Costello too! I try to see every episode because they are all very informative and great!
Excellent analysis of a podcast I really like and respect. The only thing I would have to correct is that Huberman did talk quite a bit about his life, his childhood and teenage years, his struggles and what led him to pursue his career as a scientist. I believe that interview with Rick Roll (titled Change Your Brain) covers everything one would like to know about him and his formative years.
Ive just started the vid and i love the castello edit omg😂❤
Outstanding 🎉❤ video on Huberman. I agree with all your commentary here. Thank you for making it. I had the same questions. The key is trust. I listened to one of his podcasts and although some of the science stuff was putting me to sleep I love that he knows how our brains 🧠 work and quickly summarize for us what it all means. ❤ also what is so uncommon is how long they are. This is rare in the podcast space. It's almost as they are designed for you to start listening then take it to the gym. I call it Huber- Head 😊
