I think what I'm upset about is people, because everyone was ignorant at some point. Sure. Right? That's right.
But when you have been shown something repeatedly that not only says that what you're saying isn't accurate, actually the opposite thing, this is true in a lot of cases, like some of these people that I debunk, and you're still doing it, you know, it's either, you know, there's kind of two roads you can go down. Either they're making money from it, and so they don't, they're not, they can't,

They can't really change course. But I actually think the more powerful portion of this is people tie their identity into some of this stuff. They tie their identity into a diet or a supplement program or a style of training. For sure. And I can even identify with that, right? Yeah. And so... Is it a sense of justice for you? Yeah.

Yeah, and I think, again, going through the graduate school experience where I got to, like, see myself be wrong so much, and even, I'll never forget the first talk I ever gave at Experimental Biology, which is like the Super Bowl for nerds, right? It's like 300 people in a room. I'm in my third year of grad school, and I was giving a talk, and I thought I knew this stuff. And a professor gets up,

And he totally dresses me down in front of a room of scientists. And it was embarrassing. It hurt. And I went and sat down, and Lehman was sitting next to me. And he said, you know, you did pretty good. He goes, you're not supposed to go that hard on a graduate student as a professor, and I want to talk to that guy. But... I don't hold it against that guy.

In fact, it was really good for me because I remember what that felt like. And I'm like, okay, I'm going to know my stuff next time. That's it. I'm going to go and get the answers so that I understand the nuance of this stuff. So I'm not up there looking like an idiot. Right. And so I think like that took me five minutes to self reflect and go, okay,

Yeah, by not doing my due diligence. If I knew what I was talking about, like really in depth, it would have never happened.
