I recently had a wide-ranging conversation with Paul Chek on his podcast Living 4D. Paul is a very interesting guy. He’s best known as “a world-renowned expert in the fields of corrective and high-performance exercise kinesiology, stress management and holistic wellness.” A mutual friend put us in touch, and as I’m far from a world-renowned expert in high-performance anything, I wondered if we’d really have much to talk about. But my buddy, Liam, assured me that Paul had read Sex at Dawn and was way smart. Liam was right. Not only is Paul very smart, but his candor and sense of humor are disarming — leading me to talk more candidly about my own personal experiences around sexuality than I have elsewhere.

The conversation is also available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube (link below), or wherever you listen to podcasts. Just search “Living 4D with Paul Chek” and tune into episode 188.
Great conversation, but the ads for supplements was really off-putting. Paul sounds like a really interesting guy but my skepticism kicked in with the first supplements pitch and then went into high gear with his veiled criticism of COVID vaccines. The whole wellness industry has taken a dogmatic stance against vaccines based on the claim that Big Pharma is getting rich, which is the pot calling the kettle black for all the peddlers of supplements. I don’t deny that we have a great deal of control of our health based on what we eat and how we live, but so did the Indigenous peoples of the Americas and Small Pox still wiped out 90% of them. I’ll eat well and get plenty of exercise, meditation and rest, and I’ll still optimize my immune system with the help of a vaccine to teach my body how to defend itself against a novel pathogen. Sorry for the screed, folks, but I have two brothers deeply enmeshed in the COVID conspiracy world, and I work in public health in countries where children still die every day of vaccine preventable diseases.
I probably haven't heard all the podcasts you've been on, but this is by far the best I've heard. Two of my favourite wise men together - pure braingasm. It's really apparrent that something beautiful is cooking between you two. It's a shame you did not come across Paul during the early pandemic days but maybe this was exactly the right moment.
