I can agree with a lot of what is said, and I think I could’ve and would’ve reached the same conclusions without putting myself through such extreme explorations. Living outside your comfort zone is definitely a good kind of stress, but I really think any kind of too much is as detrimental as being too comfortable. We are all and always in a state of dying. We can only slow it down.

Started out interesting, but got fatphobic really quickly. He got really close to the point about why Americans are so inactive and then would miss it every time. Put a lot of blame on individual people instead of looking at how our society and systems within the US are built.
