Booking Overview

This is a weekly interview show focused on mind-body science, nutrition, drugs, health, and ideas, typically featuring specialized scientists, physician-scientists, and occasional technology entrepreneurs. Credible pitches include researchers with notable findings, clinicians with evidence-based expertise, and founders developing scientifically grounded health technologies; booking difficulty is medium because guests are accomplished experts but not necessarily mainstream celebrities.

Neuro-Immune Interactions: Pain, Inflammation, Peptides & Healing | Isaac Chiu | Episode 303

August 05, 2026

Send us Fan MailHow the nervous and immune systems communicate, using peptides and other signals, to regulate pain, itch, and inflammation.TOPICS DISCUSSED:Nociception & Pathogens: Sensory neurons detect bacterial toxins within seconds, enabling rapid host-defense coordination ahead of immune-cell recruitment.CGRP & neutrophils: Nociceptor-release the peptide CGRP, which blocks neutrophil (immune cell) recruitment; pathogens exploit this in necrotizing fasciitis and meningitis.Pain se...

MOTS-c & Mitochondrial Peptides in Health & Aging | David Lee | Episode 302

July 30, 2026

Send us Fan MailMitochondrial peptide MOTS-c is a stress-induced signal that reprograms cell metabolism.TOPICS DISCUSSED:Mitochondrial Roles: Not just ATP production, but “speaker of the house” via communication molecules that “talk” to the rest of the cell.Origin of Communication: Mitochondrial peptides were likely co-opted from ancient antimicrobial factors to synchronize nuclear and mitochondrial genomes.MOTC Discovery: Identified in mitochondrial ribosomal RNA regions linked to interferon...

Peptides & GHK-Copper in Skin Health | Rahi Sarbaziha | Episode 301

July 22, 2026

Send us Fan MailGHK-Copper and peptides in skin care, aging, and general health.TOPICS DISCUSSED:Endogenous Decline: GHK-copper levels peak in young adulthood then fall with age, reducing natural support for skin repair and collagen maintenance.Skin Penetration: Effective topical delivery depends on molecular size under and fat solubility, often improved by procedures such as microneedling that briefly disrupt the barrier.Mechanisms of Action: The peptide upregulates fibroblasts and vascular ...
