    Host Gets in His Own Way
    The show is very interesting, the guests are very interesting, these podcasts offer so much cutting edge knowledgeable, but the host has a very fragile ego and it’s exhausting to listen to him at times. He has a vendetta towards Peter Attia. He’s sometimes antagonistic towards guests. Why?

    The Best Most worthwhile Podcast
    I have been listening to this podcast for more years than I can count and I always learn something new every episode! Dave is kind and intelligent and brings on the most thought provoking guests full of insightful information. I will keep listening for as long as Dave has podcasts!

    Terrible Interviewer
    Podcast has so much potential, but doesn’t ask good questions and can’t stay on track. No flow, always off topic and unorganized. Has such great people on, but doesn’t ever get to the point of the subject.

    Best info
    Love this show Smart guests Cutting edge idea No add interruptions!

    Every show is trying to sell you something.
    As the title says, every show either the author or the guest for both are trying to sell you something. Take everything with a grain of salt. They’re not backing up their claims with good research. They’re taking small studies, sometimes not even in humans, and making huge claims that just isn’t supported by the data. I was really looking for a fresh perspective, the one that is evidence based. One thing, however, we can all agree upon is that processed foods in the American diet is harmful.

    Some Major Snake Oil Shills
    Not sure if he gets kickbacks from certain guests or what but a lot of these personalities/products are curiously bereft of any valid patents or data, yet presented as “experts in the field.” Rich people promoting rich people’s vanity projects ?
  • Rachel3601
    I can’t take the self promotion
    I find this podcast pretty informative but I’m listening to learn from the people mr asprey is interviewing. Instead, you mostly hear mr asprey talking about himself, pimping his products, and commandeering the whole podcast. If you count all his sentences in a podcast, I guarantee that he talks twice as much as the person he’s interviewing. This seems to be a common theme among the popular podcasters lately. I’m just not listening to it anymore.

    Derogatory
    I’m a nutritionist with a a MS in nutrition science. I practice functional nutrition and I am very turned off about your generalized derogatory comments about dietitians. Very Trumpesque! Poor taste. Hard to listen to what you ‘might’ have to say that could have to say with merit.

    Go elsewhere
    There are way more qualified, way less shilly providers of information out there. I don’t know how to stop seeing this podcast in my feed, so perhaps this review will convince Apple to show me something more worth my time.
  • Leanne Jill
    Couldn’t get through it
    I wish he wasn’t so condescending and arrogant. Had to turn it off after 5 minutes. Was so excited to learn more but just couldn’t get through him interrupting guests with uncomfortable not funny remarks.
  • Nana4170
    Overhaul the American food and pharma system.
    Let’s put all the blame on the food and pharma. Yes they definitely have a role in the declining health of the US. I am speaking as a 75 year old woman who was overweight and pre diabetic at 60. I wasn’t wealthy or do I have a college degree but I had the desire to live longer and be healthy. I have an iPhone with a world of knowledge. I researched and experimented with different diets and soaked in new studies on longevity. Within about 6 months I had lost the weight and was no longer pre-diabetic and am metabolic healthy. Today I have a diet of grass fed beef, pasture eggs and butter etc. No grains or seed oils. Love cooking my nutritious food. I have gently tried to give the info to family and friends some take advice and others refuse to give up their highly processed food. Instead of 100% blame on food and pharma why not some percentage on personal responsibility. FYI couldn’t listen to promoting conspiracy theorists or a lying criminal. Food industry and pharma didn't change I did!!

    Tomatis sound therapy
    Great interview. I do sound therapy called Tomatis. I think you know what that is. We hear through both air and bone and when you talk inn-an embodied way your receiver can hear through both ear and bone. Read Dr Tomatis' book the conscious ear
  • tanyaBK
    Awesome podcast
    Before I dived in, I red some reviews and almost didn’t go through with this podcast, but I’m so happy I did in the end cause I can’t stop listening! I thought Dave was arrogant but it’s not that, it’s more like a Charisse’s with dry sense of sarcasm, which I like a lot. And the guests are great! Glad I kept listening as it’s a ton of great info

    If you’re ready, you’ve landed ...
    Dave’s style is the absolute best in my podcast listening world (7 years total) I’ve watch the Bulletproof brand get stronger year after year. Dave is brilliant at so many things and thank God he is in this space where we need him. I have gotten immense knowledge from his BP podcast, and now this one which is my go-to for Upgrading my biology. Dave is selective and sets very admirable standards for all of the pieces that make up his bio-hacking endeavors. I have often used his style of integrity as a margin when researching practitioners and products. If you have been in search of this optimal self transformation and human up-leveling, get ready, you’ve landed. ~Lisette, Las Vegas✨

    Unbearable
    I used to listen to this all the time but Dave’s level of condescension and arrogance makes it unbearable. Was excited to hear his most recent episode with Jessie Inchauspe and literally had to turn it off within the first 10 minutes. I’ll listen to her content on podcasts whose hosts allow her to actually speak without interrupting her every third word.

    Weary
    So weary of hearing this brilliant biohacker telling vegans they need to see the error of their ways. I am 76 years old and have been vegan for 45 years. I have no chronic disease, no joint pain, no lack of energy. I take no prescription drugs or even over the counter drugs. The last time I was hospitalized was 70 years ago. Last saw an MD over ten years ago. Yet, according to Asprey, I should be severely ill if not dead. The man is obsessed with being right instead of being open to new information if it happens to conflict with his previous assumptions.
  • aprilbeeRN
    Condescending to female guests
    I have listened to Dave before and have bought his products and appreciate the information he shares. After listening to part of the episode with Maggie Berghoff, I will never listen again. I can’t imagine how someone could be so disrespectful and laugh about it.
  • Unity357
    Easy to understand
    I have really enjoyed Dave’s series on Gaia and I find him very easy to listen to and easy to understand. With such in-depth knowledge he also allows his guests to speak. I consider him a honorary doctor in the field of human science and this is an area all humans should explore and self educate.
  • Melinda82785
    No emotional Intelligence
    Advice you need to hear: focus more on being interested and less on trying to be interesting. Elitist, condescending, constant need to “prove” he knows more than a guest. Pay attention - his goal isn’t to inform his goal is to sell you something.
  • radsummer
    Interact with listeners
    It would be nice if Dave Asprey took questions from listeners or provided some kind of a back and forth option with people. Is there a forum anywhere that I might have missed? It all seems very one sided. I just bought something recommended on his show, and while I understand there is good research backing it up, there is also a warning on the bottle for reproductive health- something he did not mention or discuss at all. Also, a lot of the supplements recommended by his show contain other ingredients that might already be taken by listeners, so he also never talks about combining things with what one is already taking. I just wish there was more of a dialogue with listeners if he really wants to be taken more seriously and respectfully. Does anyone know if I can send questions somewhere? Or is this all brushed off under the “sorry not a doctor warning” ?
  • Lkjhag
    Would love more accessible solutions
    This podcast feels elitist. Yes I have only listened to one episode, but it seems that a lot of the information while it is very great and enlightening doesn’t seem applicable to those with certain limitations in their finances and access to certain cares. I left this feeling like there was no solution to the things that I just learned about.
  • Jthe Gent
    some helpful information if you can wade through his ego
    dave should let his guests talk more. he is beyond annoying with his opinions. some are here for facts or different perspectives, even if we don't agree.
  • cfsmiles
    Very informative but….
    Great content and guests but Dave always interrupts and makes it about him.
  • biointel
    thanks Dave
    Simply the best in the field of biotech enlightenment much gratitude to a pioneer in the frontier of human wellness. Perhaps the best source of information I have found.
  • Fitnessnut 62
    Love these podcasts
    Just listened to Dave and Elle Russ. So informative- I always enjoy Dave’s content.
  • Happy🤪girl
    My favorite podcast by a mile
    Cutting edge health info, broken down so it’s understandable, interesting and includes actionable items. I am truly grateful to Dave Asprey for this as well as his perspective on health, longevity and so many important issues of our environment. Now I’ve become that dorky person, always saying “I have a podcast for that!” So glad I found this !!! 😍🙏🏼😃

    Super Dave
    I always learn something new each time I listen to this podcast.

    Dave is the Elon Musk of bio hacking.

    Anti vegan
    He makes a full of himself when talking about veganism! Makes me doubt his knowledge about other things!
  • BP Writer
    Fantastic host, consistently great content and guests!
    Came across the Human Upgrade podcast and am loving it! Especially enjoyed the episode about how breast implants can compromise your health and make you sick with Austin-based Dr. Robert Whitfield. This conversation was so candid, transparent, and moving! So many important takeaways! Can’t wait to listen to more episodes! Thank you!

    I’ve been hacked!
    Hi, my name is Tommy Taylor and I have become a Hack-Aholic ever since my first sip of the Bullet Proof world. I now have over 1,300 hours of Dave in my brain. Mr. Asprey has spent countless hours, funds, and self experiments to achieve maximum performance from a human body. Let’s face it, we were created as pretty awesome creatures-with biological flaws. Such as computers were created with flaws that allow an outside source (viruses) to change the outcome of what it was programmed to compute. In short, he found a way to hack our biological flaws with nutrition, light, bi-feedback and knowledge of the amazing available resources (as well as the ones to avoid) this planet has a lot to offer a mere human to perform at it’s maximum potential. Cheers! Tommy Taylor Hack-Aholic, Ultra-runner, Ironman, surfer, grandfather of four.

    Great podcast. Very educational and inspirational
    This is my favorite podcast for years. After reading the Super Human book, I started to listen to this pod regularly and bought supplements with discounts. They are very helpful to me. Thank you 🙏

    Why do you feel you have to ‘One Up’ everyone of you guests? This is not a competition!

    ALPHA GAL
    You could have a good show. Like one where we don’t have to get a political dose of whoever the guest is. I’m really tired of attacks on people who don’t eat meat. Ever heard of Alpha-Gal? It’s no joke and not a life choice. I’m also tired of hearing ANYONE using the word WOKE. It died with Betty White, and is now a signal of verbal-dorkness. Your guest Luke Storey attacked both of these ideas within the first 5 minutes of his interview. That doesn’t sound all that balanced or emotionally healthy to me. Why did he have to get his digs in? Was looking forward to his story but I think I know all I need to about him. Pass, and seriously considering unsubscribing.
  • LK80tennis
    Dr Shah
    I wish you would talk with your guests ahead of time and vet them for their actual intelligence. Dr Shah sounds like a high schooler who is BSing their way through an essay. That was one of the most shallow, unintelligent episode I’ve ever heard. Everything she said sounded like a highly uneducated, ignorant, supposed doctor.
  • Tina Des
    Smarter not Harder
    Just listened to your podcast with Cynthia Thurlow. It made me think, it made me laugh and it made me want to find out more. So I purchased your book, Smarter not Harder. I want to live a long, healthy (brain and body) life. My great grandmothers lived into their 90s, my grandmothers both lived until 101 and 98 and my parents are still going strong at 80. I need to know how to live smarter not harder! Thank you Dave for all you do.

    ***** Daily Listener*****
    I absolutely love Dave's Podcast. He is brilliant, witty and hysterically raw and primal. Everyone needs a biohacking best friend that will literally talk with you about anything, Dave is your next best friend. Thank You for putting out this amazing content. I'm absolutely obsessed, in the most healthy way obsession can be...lol The F's=forever :)

    Good Morning
    Good morning Dave. I was wondering do you have a magazine? Or your episodes in reading form?

  • Miss Mahyee
    Incredibly helpful
    I’ve been listening to this podcast for years and have discovered profoundly impactful information here. So grateful to Dave for sharing what he does. Most recently, I tried the Quantum Upgrade subscription service after hearing about it on the podcast, and I’m feeling a marked improvement in my chronic health symptoms from using it.
  • Savagette
    The smugness!
    He will never live to be 180 years old he’s ridiculous. I don’t trust him anymore. Bought his immune support which was predominantly ascorbic acid, an inferior corn derivative and a GMO. Also bought his 16 ounce Deathwish coffee which besides being just meh was only 12 ounces. His collagen product never lists the source of the collagen and I bet it’s low grade hooves and hides collagen not trachea and sternum which is high-quality. He’s a businessman and his business is selling his products which are over priced and take at least a week to arrive even if you buy it on Amazon. I will have no more false gods before me!

    Dave and his incredible rude comments
    Dave you make a lot of rude comments about groups and people with other beliefs other than yourself. You should try to be more of a scientist and less of a wounded individual. Groups that are fighting for the lives of innocent animals are not terrorists. People who would like to live vegan and vegetarian, have a right to do so without you crapping on them. Dave, you can be incredibly rude and insensitive and you should stop trying to be a comedian because you’re not funny at all. You just end up being incorrect, non-compassionate and insensitive. So for those reasons I can only take you in a little bit some doses because you say a lot incredibly rude incorrect things. You are often immature not the kind of person that people want to follow.
  • Kicsinycsillag
    Host could use a drop of humbleness
    Pretty good show, with fantastic guests. Too bad the host is insufferable, with constant boasting and bragging, every word of his is an ego trip. I really love the guests he is bringing but every question, every comment the host makes has the pure purpose of boasting himself or showing off about something. The show would be so much better if the host would put his me-me-me attitude in the background, be a little more humble and approach the guests with true openness and curiosity, instead of the “ I know this all already, listen how awesome I am” attitude.
  • exbaptistecultmember
    Baptiste is a charlatan
    I’m not surprised to see Baron here as birds of a feather flock together. Baron is a con man who has created a cult. You pay 5-10+ k to attend his training only for him to sleep with pretty blonde students. He’s posted some pretty gross things as well defending trump and he is not the yoga teacher you want to follow. There are many more out there that really know and practice yoga.
  • LaDM1
    Disappointed
    Very disappointed with the Baptiste episode. Someone should be vetting your guests. He is extremely problematic in that he leads a high control group, has been accused by many of inappropriate relationships with his students, violating labor laws, abuse of power & more. Do better.
