It's so biased. Here's what happens. They can do things with studies to keep them within the parameters of what's considered-

uh legitimate like they can shorten a study or lengthen a study for example then this has been shown this has been hap this has happened a pharmaceutical company will do a a nine month study but at six months everything looked good and side effects got started to really pop up around month seven they'll stop the study and they'll publish the six month study and not show nine months.

And that's happened.

That's happened before. Pharmaceutical companies got sued over stuff like that. Or I'll give you a great example. In the 1970s, there was a study that was funded by the US government to connect cannabis to cancer risk. They said, well, it definitely causes cancer because cigarettes cause cancer. Let's do the study. And when the study started showing that it wasn't causing cancer-

In fact, it might actually have a slight protective effect. They stopped the study and didn't publish it. So sometimes they'll do that as well. They'll fund a study. We don't like those results. No one ever knows about it. So that's another one. That's another thing to kind of consider.

But the reason why I'm careful going down that path is because I also don't think you should be like, I'm a pro-study study.

That's right. And this is, this is one thing that we aim to do. as we try to get in there and kind of figure it out like a great one. We just did an episode recently on hip thrust versus squats. And the studies show that they both build the glutes the same, but so much anecdote from people, uh, online saying that hip thrust build their butts more. Well, that's because the self-selection bias, uh,
