Summary

After a brief summer break, the boys are back, and Billy reveals he has been conducting an experiment for three weeks where he followed the diet of our ancestors, the ones who ate like Homo sapiens and consumed only two things: plants and animals. The results have been so positive that you'll probably want to skip this part of the podcast because no one wants to hear about how good he feels.Instead, skip to the part where he talks about he never would have survived in the time of our ancestors because of his extraordinary ability to repel wild animals, as told through the stories of three recent can't-miss fishing trips where he most definitely missed. What is with this frigging guy? Don't be a Billy.And the boys start making plans for future explorations of the incredible abilities of the human animal. Jody agrees to row around Cape Ann; Billy finds a 72-year-old man who is going to teach him how to freedive to the bottom of the ocean; and they commit again to run up Mt. Washington (for real this time).This plus a rant against the salesmen who dominate the male wellness space. We aren't going to sell you any answers on this show. Instead, we're running a question factory.
