À propos de cet audio

 You saw it on TikTok. That weird green powder, the mouth taping thing, the "internal shower" that looks suspiciously like laxative lemonade. You’re curious… but you also have a mortgage to pay and a functioning BS detector. Welcome to UNWELL, the podcast for the wellness-curious and the chronically skeptical.

Each day, join us, an aesthetic oracle who believes vibes are a valid source, and the evidence-based science enthusiast who needs to see the receipts (aka the peer-reviewed studies)—as they hilariously and brutally dissect the biggest trends in health, fitness, and biohacking.

Is Berberine really "Nature's Ozempic"? Are seed oils the devil, or just… oil? Will a cold plunge actually change your life, or just make you miserably cold?

We're cutting through the noise of influencers and gurus to give you the TL;DR you actually need. One part group chat, one part science class, and one part comedy roast. This is the only wellness podcast that will admit when it’s all a little… unwell.

For fans of: Huberman Lab, Maintenance Phase, SmartLess, and doom-scrolling health TikTok.

  • Did You Sell Your DNA to Big Pharma? The 23andMe Story

    Did You Sell Your DNA to Big Pharma? The 23andMe Story
    Nov 17 2025
    Ever spit in that tube for a DNA test, excited for a personalized health blueprint, but had a nagging fear about what you really signed away? 🤯 Our latest episode dives into the murky, high-stakes world of at-home genetic testing, using 23andMe as our primary case study.

    We confront the burning question on the minds of over 15 million customers: what happens to your genetic data when the company holding it faces financial trouble? We explore the terrifying possibility of your immutable biological code being sold to pharmaceutical companies and the massive gaps in data security and regulation that could allow it.

    But it's not just about privacy. We also expose the limited clinical utility of these tests, explaining why a genetic predisposition is not a predestination and why professional genetic counseling is essential. We'll navigate the complex bioethics of your "right to know" versus your "right not to know," and reveal why the genetic revolution is a minefield of genetic anxiety for profit.

    Before you spit in that tube—or if you already have—this is an essential briefing. Share this with anyone who has taken a DNA test or is thinking about it.

  • The AI Will See You Now: Replacing Doctors with Algorithms?

    The AI Will See You Now: Replacing Doctors with Algorithms?
    Nov 16 2025
    What if your next doctor's appointment was with an app on your phone? The future is already here with the rise of AI health coaches and diagnostic tools powered by Large Language Models (LLMs). These technologies promise a revolution in medicine, offering to slash administrative work and provide instant health advice. But can an algorithm really replace a human doctor?

    This isn't just a tech talk; it's an urgent look into the wild west of AI in healthcare. We're pulling back the curtain to examine the enormous gap between promise and peril. While some AI tools are showing incredible potential, studies reveal their diagnostic accuracy often falls short of human professionals. And what happens when the AI gets it wrong?

    Join us as we navigate the massive ethical minefield: the "black box" problem where we don't know how an AI makes its decisions, the risk of embedding algorithmic bias that could harm vulnerable patients, and the enormous challenge facing regulators like the FDA. This is a story about the battle for the future of your health—pitting the relentless pace of innovation against the fundamental need for trust and safety.

    If you are fascinated or terrified by the future of medicine, this episode is essential listening. Follow our podcast, share this with anyone who uses a health app, and join the critical conversation about the code that could one day save—or risk—your life.

  • The Great EMF Panic: Are Your Airpods & Wi-Fi Slowly Frying You?

    The Great EMF Panic: Are Your Airpods & Wi-Fi Slowly Frying You?
    Nov 15 2025
    We are surrounded by an invisible ocean of signals—from our Wi-Fi, our phones, our Airpods, and the new 5G towers on every corner. The question is: are these signals silently harming us? Welcome to the Great EMF Panic.

    On one side, you have alarming studies, like some from the National Toxicology Program, suggesting a link between cell phone radiation and DNA damage. On the other, you have a scientific consensus that finds the evidence contradictory and unconvincing. So who do you believe?

    Join us as we dive deep into the real science of RF-EMF to separate fact from fear. We'll also investigate the baffling and debilitating condition known as Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity (EHS). Are people really getting sick from their devices, or are they experiencing a powerful and very real "nocebo effect," where the fear of harm can create actual physical symptoms?

    This is a controversial look at a modern health scare that pits personal experience against scientific data. If you've ever wondered if you should be worried about the technology you use every day, this episode is your definitive guide.

    Follow our podcast, share this with anyone who's ever eyed a cell tower with suspicion, and let's find the signal in the noise together.
