If I keep going down the rabbit hole will it pay off?

In Episode #401 of 'Musings', Juan & I discuss: learnings from watching Peter Attia & Andrew Huberman, changing my mind on why I dislike recent science, Juan's smackdown of the WHO, rules of thumb I created for when to stop, how to use the Pareto principle effectively and a curious teaser for the next episode.

Massive thanks to Iluvsushi, Dave Jones, Eselsea, Bitcoin Dad, Petar, McIntosh. Special shoutout to Cole McCormick from the 'America+' podcast for the absolute baller boost!
