In this episode of Extreme Individuals Podcast, I sit down with neurosurgeon and mitochondrial expert Dr. Jack Kruse for a deep dive into the unseen forces shaping our modern world. We explore the hidden history of today’s most ubiquitous technologies—from DARPA’s early innovations to the way centralized systems have quietly influenced every aspect of our lives. Dr. Kruse unpacks the profound biological effects of light on our health, explaining how mitochondria & light are at the center of human performance, disease, and consciousness itself. This conversation moves beyond science into philosophy and freedom, touching on the wisdom of the founding fathers and what it truly means to live a decentralized life in a hyper-connected world.
