Podcast Description
Upgraded Self Radio was born out of a fifteen-year single-minded crusade to upgrade the human being using every available technology. It distills the knowledge of more than 120 world-class MDs, biochemists, Olympic nutritionists, meditation experts, and more than $250,000 spent on personal self-experiments. From private brain EEG facilities hidden in a Canadian forest to remote monasteries in Tibet, from Silicon Valley to the Andes, high tech entrepreneur Dave Asprey used hacking techniques and tried everything himself, obsessively focused on discovering: What are the simplest things you can do to be better at everything? Welcome to being bulletproof, the state of high performance where you take control of and improve your biochemistry, your body, and your mind so they work in unison, helping you execute at levels far beyond what you’d expect, without burning out, getting sick, or just acting like a stressed-out jerk. It used to take a lifetime to radically rewire the human body and mind this way. Technology has changed the rules. Follow along as Dave Asprey and Armi Legge provide you with everything you need to upgrade your mind, body, and life.

Customer Reviews
Paleo upgraded!
I agree the podcast banter and the sound may need some work but they are getting the information out that no one else is talking about! This is great stuff and they are taking the Paleo template to the next level. I have made it though about half of the podcasts and I am astounded at the additional information I have gained, this coming from someone that has listened to all of the other Paleo pod casts, this is the next level! Love it guys keep up the great work
Very content rich, and smart hosts.
Pros: Great content. The guests and hosts typically are experts in their chosen fields. And the bio-hacking advice is great and the techniques that they recommend to maximize your performance are useful. I've been implementing most of the lifestyle changes that they have talked about and I can attest that am getting smarter and stronger. The best part of the show is the email section at the front of the show, as the hosts riff back and forth on what they do and why.
Cons: The audio is a little buggy and the connections to the guests are sometimes iffy. For example, Armi tends to be really muffled whereas Dave sounds like he's standing right next to my ear. Makes for some interesting moments while driving and listening to my headphones.
Other than the audio, my vote is an enthusiastic 2 thumbs up!
Great Content, Execution Lacking
Both of the hosts talks about an incredible rannge of interesting and useful stuff related to health, longevity and fitness. They also have a lot of scientific evidence, which is always nice.
However, the audio is horrible. It only seems good when Armi is talking and for guests it is almost always bad to the point of not wanting to listen. The banter between Dave and Armi is also lacking. The format with them seems to be mostly let's talk about this, what Dave thinks, what Armi thinks and no play off of it.
