FOR THE PAST three years, one of the biggest podcasters on the planet has told a story to millions of listeners across half a dozen shows: There was a little boy, and the boy's family was happy, until one day, the boy's family fell apart. The boy was sent away. He foundered, he found therapy, he found science, he found exercise. And he became strong. ¶ Today, Andrew Huberman is a stiff, jacked 48-yearold associate professor of neurology and ophthalmology at the Stanford University School of Medicine. He is given to delivering three-hour lectures on subjects such as "the health of our dopaminergic neurons." His podcast is revelatory largely because it does not condescend, which has not been the way of public-health information in our time. He does not give the impression of someone diluting science to universally applicable sound bites for the slobbering masses. "Dopamine is vomited out into the synapse or it's released volumetrically, but then it has to bind someplace and trigger those G-protein-coupled receptors, and caffeine increases the number, the density of those G-protein-coupled receptors," is how he explains the effect of coffee before exercise in a two-hour-and-16-minute deep dive that has, as of this writing, nearly 8.9 million views on YouTube.
