Ashley Walters (Top Boy): "Me & Kano Didn't Have The Greatest Time!". The Unheard TRUTH About Top Boy, Career Rejection & Personal Grief!

Nearly 1 in 3 American adults now take vitamin D, but Dr. Stasha Gominak says many of them are taking it wrong, and that done carelessly, supplementing can leave you worse off than before. Dr. Stasha Gominak practiced neurology for over 20 years. She earned her MD from Baylor College of Medicine and completed her neurology residency at the Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts General Hospital. After working with her own patients, she believes that nearly everyone struggling to sleep shares the same hidden deficiency, a conclusion she published in 2 papers and built into RightSleep, the method she now teaches full time. She explains: ◼ Why she believes your skin is the best producer of vitamin D, and why she says no amount of pills or salmon can replace it ◼ Why she believes insomnia isn't a behavior problem but a chemical deficiency, and what she thinks changed when we moved indoors ◼ The role she says your gut bacteria play in producing your B vitamins ◼ Why she believes taking vitamin D on its own can burn through your B vitamins, and what she says happened when she tried it herself ◼ Why she connects the rise in conditions like ADHD, depression, fatty liver and diabetes to the same period, and what she thinks links them ◼ Why she considers supplements a form of biohacking, and just as risky as any drug if you get them wrong The views expressed are those of the guest, and this conversation is intended for general informational purposes only.

Every founder is being told to build an AI company. Alex Hormozi says almost all of them will be gone within months, that the best move is the exact opposite of what the market is saying, and that in a world of AI the only moat left will be reality and your reputation.

He is the co-founder of Acquisition.com, a portfolio of 16+ companies generating over $250 million a year, and the author of the $100M series: '$100M Offers', '$100M Leads' and '$100M Money Models', whose 2025 launch sold 2.9 million copies in a single day and broke the Guinness World Record for the fastest-selling non-fiction book in history. He explains: ◼ Why the practical businesses, like plumbing, are the real opportunity, not the ones built on top of AI models ◼ Why delegating your hardest thinking to a machine makes you weak ◼ Why reality and reputation are the only moats AI can't erode ◼ Why revenue retention matters more than marketing or sales ◼ Why marrying his wife Leila was the best financial decision he ever made, and how the right partner changes your odds ◼ He opens up about one of the hardest years of his life, in the same year he made more money than ever The views expressed are those of the guest, and this conversation is intended for general informational purposes only.
