Head First Podcast
Ep10 - Optimizing the Mind with Daniel Schmachtenberger of Neurohacker Collective
Neurohacker, systems scientist, and philosopher Daniel Schmachtenberger discusses the questions at the heart of modern science which will allow us to unlock the secrets of the most complex instrument in the known universe: the human brain, and offers avenues to begin quantifying and hacking it.
Ep5 - Ryan Munsey from Natural Stacks on CILTEP and body biohacking
Ryan is a former fitness model and gym owner turned writer, speaker, and biohacker. He's a mental and physical performance specialist with a degree in Food Science & Human Nutrition from Clemson University. An avid hunter, you'll often find him in the woods.
Ep3 - Nootropics and other biohacking with Smart Drug Smarts’ Jesse Lawler
Biohacker Jesse Lawler joins us to talk about plasticity, fasting, how important dark chocolate is to him, and different ways to eat including Intermitten Fasting. We also look at some of Jesse’s QEEG brain maps. Jesse Lawler is a pan-disciplinary enthusiast and biohacker, who has written enterprise software for beer companies, produced zombie films, been a featured speaker at business conferences, and slept outdoors at gas stations. He is curious and a do-it-yourself’er entrepreneur, and the founder of the Smart Drug Smarts podcast.

Brain Mapping: What Happens To Your Brain On A “Limitless” Pill…
I got my brain mapped 🧠 Then took a nootropic and did it again a day later, and the results blew me away. It’s one thing to feel more mentally and cognitively sharp, but it’s a whole new story to have data showing the difference in brain activity. By the way, brain mapping can be a really neat tool for you to quantify how your brain may be getting in the way of your peak performance, whether it’s sleep issues, depression, ADHD, anxiety, some form of addiction or even PTSD. I recently visited Peak Brain Institute in LA for an interesting biohacking experiment — I wanted to know how a nootropic, “a limitless pill”, changed my baseline brain activity. Not only did I learn about both the ups and downs, but what’s even cooler, now I finally have quantified evidence how quickly, way above average, my brain processes information. All those brain hacks must be working 🧠 🤓 I’m super grateful for Dr. Andrew Hill, functional neuroscientist coach and founder of Peak Brain Institute, for taking the time to go over my brain and teach me how to make sense of it all. Thank you! The nootropic I tested was the Blue Cannatine from Troscriptions
