About This Podcast
NOTE: Dr. Chismoore is currently away. He has left really important thinkers, and comedians, TOM FELL and GRIFFIN WENZLER in charge.*
Each week Dr. Chris Chismoore takes on the impossible task of discussing neuroscience, biohacking, men’s health, and men’s culture.
Dr. Chris Chismoore is a heterodox neuroscientist, polarizing archeologist, persistent entrepreneur, and tenured professor in the Department of Research at a really good college. He’s been profiled in Scientific American, Harper’s Weekly, and TigerTeen Beat. His work has been published in the Journal of Thought, the New England Papers, and Wine Yum Today. His studies on biohacking the men’s genome have been revolutionary to regular guys everywhere.
On Really Important Thinking, Dr. Chris deconstructs winning strategies and world-class performers in eclectic areas (medicine, business, chess) digging deep to find tools, tactics, and tricks listeners can consider to optimize and integrate into efficient routine strategies for routine success and full potential living.
Welcome to the Journey. Welcome to the Awakening. You are loved. No one thinks like you. -Dr. Chris Chismoore
