Hello everybody, welcome back to the show. My guest today is Zack Telander. He's a weightlifter, coach and a YouTuber. I haven't seen my housemate in months because we've both been traveling. So here is 90 minutes of us discussing some of the biggest stories that have happened recently in our lives and within the insanity of the internet. Expect to learn Zack's thoughts on Billy MacFarland coming back with Fyre Festival 2.0, the massive change to trans athletes in sports, whether watching porn is considered cheating, why Oppenheimer might be a threat to your relationship, what it's like to visit Japan and Korea to lift heavy things and much more. This Monday, another Modern Wisdom cinema episode goes live this time with Sarah Safaree, the Gymshark athlete and massive time fitness influencer. She is unbelievably interesting. She does not fit the mold of normal fit chick, airhead girl. I really, really enjoyed the conversation that we had together and we speak about absolutely everything, what it's like trying to date Gen Z guys, her thoughts on OnlyFans, whether Bradley Martin beats up Logan Paul if they get into a fight, absolutely everything. So get ready for that one. And obviously make sure you've hit subscribe because it's the only way that you're not going to miss it. This episode is brought to you by Marek Health. I wanted to get my blood work done in America and after doing some digging, I found that Marek Health was the best and most comprehensive company out there. I loved the process so much that I actually reached out to the owner and asked them to be a partner on the show. That's how impressed I was. You can stop guessing when it comes to your health by actually getting blood work done to provide valuable insights into what is going on inside of your body. You go to any LabCorp facility around the US, they will take your blood and you receive biomarker feedback with actionable steps to improve your metabolism, libido, mood, cognitive health and everything else. Once you get your labs done, you have the choice to meet with a medical provider to discuss potential treatment options too. Also, you can get a 10% discount off everything site-wide if you go to marekhealth.com/modernwisdom and use the code MODERNWISDOM at checkout. That's M-A-R-E-K health.com/modernwisdom and Modern Wisdom at checkout. This episode is brought to you by Aidsleep. I am absolutely in love with my Aidsleep pod cover. It fits over the top of any bed like a fitted sheet and it actively cools and heats each different side of the bed throughout your sleep stages. As you go to sleep, it cools the bed down. As you get into deeper sleep throughout the night, it'll actually bring the temperature back up a tiny little bit. You can control it all from your phone. It's phenomenal. It really does improve the quality of your sleep because you never wake up because you're too hot or too cool. Also, if you're not happy with your pod cover for any reason, within 90 days, 8Sleep will refund you fully. Head to 8sleep.com/modernwisdom to save $150 or £150 on your pod cover. That's the best offer that you will find, but you must go to eightsleep.com/modernwisdom and they ship within the USA, Canada, the UK, select countries in the EU and Australia. This episode is brought to you by Element. I have started my morning every single day for the last three years the same way, which is with Element in water. It tastes fantastic. It reduces muscle cramps and fatigue. It optimizes your brain health. It regulates appetite and it helps to curb cravings. It's got a science-backed electrolyte ratio of sodium, potassium and magnesium. Super simple. There is nothing fancy going on here, but it really does work. Also, they have a no BS, no questions asked refund policy, so you can buy it 100% risk-free. And if you do not like it, they will give you your money back and you don't even need to return the box. That's how confident they are that you love it. They are the exclusive hydration partner to Team USA Weightlifting and rely on by tons of Olympic athletes and high performers in the NFL, NBA, NHL and FBI sniper teams, plus tech leaders and everyday athletes around the world.

We live together, and despite that fact, we've barely seen each other for probably two months now.

Yeah, well, because if I'm traveling, you're home. If you're traveling, I'm home. So now we're finally reunited. It feels good.
