Dr. Andrew Huberman stuns Bill Maher with an anti-phone brain hack that instantly helps you outperform your peers. A landmark study looked at 3 sets of people: • One group had their phones sitting in front of them • Another had phones tucked away • And the last group... had their phones in another room The study found that the closer your phone was, the more mental energy it drained just to stay focused. “So when the phone’s out of the room, you see what looks like a boost in cognitive performance. It’s actually just getting people to baseline,” Dr. Huberman explained. Quoting David Goggins, Huberman said: “It’s never been easier nowadays to outperform your peers, but it’s mostly a function now of what you DON’T do.” “Just putting your phone away gives you what looks like a cognitive boost, but it just puts you on par with all the generations before you that didn’t have phones in the room.” BILL MAHER: “Wow.” If that Huberman health hack stood out to you, there’s a lot more where that came from.

Andrew Huberman dropped a brutal truth on Bill Maher’s podcast: Even if your phone is off and face-down on the table, it’s still quietly stealing your focus and draining your brainpower. The only way to get your full cognitive ability back? Get the phone completely out of the room. It’s not that removing it gives you superpowers — it just returns you to the normal baseline every generation before smartphones had. Success today is increasingly about what you don’t do. This one really hit me. How often do you keep your phone completely out of the room when you need to focus deeply?

“We accidentally ran a massive social experiment on an entire generation.” Andrew Huberman and Bill Maher were talking about Gen Z — the first cohort raised deep inside short-video, phone-first culture — and it got pretty blunt. Huberman pointed out that some employers are already hesitant to hire certain young people because they struggle with basic eye contact and face-to-face conversation. Maher added that it’s visibly affecting their sex lives and social skills — people sitting across from each other in bars or on dates, both glued to their phones. Even at concerts, the crowd experiences the show through their screens instead of living it in the moment. Huberman nailed the strangeness: “They could get that image after the show… so what is that about?” It’s a raw conversation about how constant mediation through a little rectangle is changing human connection in ways we’ve never seen before — not just in degree, but in kind. How much of this phone-first generation shift have you noticed in real life?

Dr. Andrew Huberman just confirmed a “wild conspiracy theory” about incandescent lights and LED bulbs. The long wavelengths found in incandescents increase your metabolism and “charge your mitochondria.” Conversely, the LED bulbs that most of you have in your house are “causing disruptions in mitochondrial function.” DR. ANDREW HUBERMAN: “Your mitochondria function better, you increase ATP production, your metabolism increases in the presence of red light, long wavelength light to the skin.” “Shine long wavelength light on somebody, watch blood glucose levels in a blood glucose test, and it’s blunted.” “Now, the LED lights that are commonly used now… that short wavelength light, in the absence of long wavelength light, has been shown to damage the mitochondria.” “This used to be considered crazy. This was like chemtrail crazy, right?” “But now we’re starting to see from animal studies and human studies, from Glenn Jeffreys and others, that people’s vision gets better when they get in front of an incandescent bulb once a day.” “If they get sunlight, which also has long-wavelength light, your vision improves because of improvements in mitochondria.” The Biden administration quietly pushed incandescents out of the market through aggressive energy regulations. But you can still find them online today if you look hard enough. If that health insight stood out to you, there’s a lot more where that came from.

Bill Maher SLAPS AROUND the artist that PULLED out of the Freedom 250 Concert: “They all pulled out. This is a question of what looks best for the Democrats because I don’t think that looks good. It looks like you are just what people say about you: you don’t really love America. It looks like you think that Trump is more important than the country itself.” “Now it’s just a big MAGA rally… because they all pulled out.” “Wouldn’t it have been better to play this gig?… Just celebrating America. Can’t we all just celebrate America itself and leave Trump out of it?”

Technology may soon be able to dial cognitive states on demand. Andrew Huberman: "The real holy grail in all this is the ability to dial in cognitive states." "I can imagine putting on a pair of glasses to sit down and do some work… and for the next 40 minutes you'll experience the kind of focus that you only had a few times when you had all conditions right." "The amount of things you can do to modify brain state through this region, just the eyes, ears, and superficial nerves that run around there is just phenomenal." "If I were to personally invest in any companies doing that sort of thing, that's the body area and the sorts of things I'd be really focused on." Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D. Daisy Wolf

💬: What raises suspicion of surveillance is this: in Dani’s case, it was said that her side had already received a formal legal notice two weeks earlier. The notice basically stated that if certain matters were not explained, the contract would be terminated. What’s most shocking is that, according to reports, one of the main issues raised was why a parent had replaced a phone after losing it. The implication seemed to be that the parent changed the phone in order to destroy evidence that might have been on it. You can sit there and spin your own baseless theories like that if you want, but if the phone hadn’t been replaced, were you planning to demand it and run forensic analysis on it? Even if you asked for the phone, just like President Lee Jae-myung has said before, you are not an investigative authority or a law enforcement agency. You have no right to demand a phone, especially a parent’s phone. When I heard this from a tip-off, I honestly found it terrifying.

He rented an Airbnb and discovered something strange an extra room attached to the house with boarded-up windows, but no door connecting it from the inside. It’s the kind of detail that instantly makes you wonder what’s behind it. Places like that can turn a normal stay into a mystery you can’t stop thinking about. What would you do if you found a sealed-off room like that in your Airbnb? Try to investigate or just ignore it?

Bill Maher: “First of all, you have to go through a primary gauntlet in the Democratic Party. Don’t you in the Democratic Party?” Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear (D): “We like to have spirited primaries... I’d like to think that when democracy works well, you have that. Bill Maher: “Well, we didn’t have any for Kamala [Harris]... Just throwing that out there. Should we have?” Gov. Beshear: “With that time period I think it would have been challenging... She worked hard. Now if she had more time. If the Democratic Party had more time maybe things would have been different.” Bill Maher: “Well, it all came out for the best… I think she should have had less time.”

Bill Maher just said the quiet part out loud...Trump Derangement Syndrome has hijacked America for over a decade. He told John Stamos that it’s gotten so bad that he literally cannot be around these people anymore. MAHER: “It is a phenomenon that we have never seen before that one person would dominate just the national debate…” STAMOS: “Every conversation, every dinner, every f*cking thing…” MAHER: “For over a decade! You know, and I do think you have to fight that. Like I say, if that’s your whole personality, is the first thing out of your mouth is, ‘what are we going to do about Donald Trump?’ I just can’t. I can’t!” STAMOS: “First of all, you don’t have the answer.” MAHER: “I don’t have the answer, exactly.” STAMOS: “But people think you do, I would get it.” MAHER: “I can’t get away from these people.”

David Goggins & Andrew Huberman drop the rawest truth on willpower & purpose (5:57 clip): You don’t “find” purpose or willpower — you build it the hard way. Goggins: “There is no f... hack. The hack is going to f... suck. And do it… and do it… and do it.” Huberman: The anterior mid-cingulate cortex (the “willpower center”) only grows when you do things you hate doing. Lifting to failure, 4 straps, cold showers — if you like it, it doesn’t count. The “stick,” the “haunt,” the friction — that’s the gear that actually builds it. Goggins: “That’s why so many people fail to find their purpose. Because growing that part doesn’t look fun. It doesn’t look like my life looks fun.” Clip here — no sugar-coating, just brutal honesty 👇 Who’s actively doing something today that their brain is screaming “NO” to?

Dr. Andrew Huberman raises concerns about airport security body scanners. “It’s a low level of radiation… BUT if you’re traveling a lot, you’re getting multiple low-level exposures.” He asked cancer researcher Dr. Alex Marson if he avoids the scanner. Here’s what he said: Andrew D. Huberman, Ph.D.: “I get X-rays at the dentist now and again, but I prefer not to get them. X-rays cause mutations.” DR. ALEX MARSON: “When you need an X-ray, you need an X-ray. But I wouldn’t do them for fun.” HUBERMAN: “I have colleagues who prefer to do the slower, manual pat-down at the airport to going through the scanner. It’s a low level of radiation, is what they tell me. But if you’re traveling a lot, you’re getting multiple low-level exposures.” “Do you yourself avoid the scanner at the airport?” DR. ALEX MARSON: “Honestly, I do…” “If I can avoid it, I try to minimize. But that’s not based on some inside knowledge I have. But I have the same bias that less seems better.” HUBERMAN: “I think it’s useful for people to hear that. One can have no formal data, but an understanding of a mechanism that leads them to hedge. It’s good to know.” THE LESSON HERE: If you can wait, choose the pat down. When it comes to radiation exposure, less is always better.

This is one of the greatest displays of the creative process I've seen. John Mayer perfectly demonstrates something that many of my favorite artists all say: You become creative by creating. "You just keep going 'til you get something," Mayer says/sings. "You gotta keep forcing it, forcing it, forcing it…it doesn’t matter [what comes out of your mind/mouth].” Dr. Andrew Huberman talks about how the brain circuits that turn on before those involved in creativity are of the stress system. I've heard him use 3 analogies to explain this. 1) It’s like you have to wade through sewage before you can swim in clear water. 2) It’s like when you try to lift your max on the bench press—it takes time to work up to that weight. 3) It’s like your best creative work is on the other side of a door at the top of a staircase—it takes time and effort to get up the stairs and through that door. In other words, Dr. Huberman says, you become more creative the more you create. Many artists talk similarly about what Mayer refers to in the clip as "ouija boarding" (just sort of spitting out words and sounds). John Legend says his songs start with what he calls “the mumble track.” “It’s just me humming and mumbling nonsense,” he said. Judd Apatow says his movie scripts are all a product of the Down-Up theory: “Get the ideas DOWN then fix them UP.” “Give yourself permission to suck," Judd says. "Anything goes. Just get something down.” Even if it’s nonsense, he says. Keep forcing it, forcing it, forcing it. - - - Before I started writing online, I told Ryan Holiday I was just waiting to know for certain what I wanted to write about. “Just start," he said. "You’re trying to map out the whole 9 innings. Just throw the first pitch…You’re better off starting imperfectly than being paralyzed by the delusion of perfection.” Rather than being paralyzed by the delusion that creativity comes to you, you're better off "forcing it, forcing it, forcing it," as Mayer said. "Go get it from the universe." Follow Billy Oppenheimer for more content like this!

Pelosi scrambled to downplay it, claiming it was “hardly noticeable in the room.” BASH: “People are also watching for the reaction of the opposition party and your leadership warned the caucus not to have any outbursts, not to take the bait.” “There was a moment where a couple of members did not…more than one member, more than one moment.” “But I want to play one of them for you. When a couple did not heed that, just watch.” [Plays clip of Omar] PELOSI: “That was hardly noticeable in the room.” “It may have been more noticeable on TV.” “Hardly noticeable.” “And then also when he started talking about corruption, the members were saying, what about you? What about you? What about you?” “That was another, more of an outburst than that, actually.” “I don’t think that there was that much shall we say, departure from what the leader had guided us to do.”
