We only planned to chat off camera, then got so deep into Type 1 vs Type 2 fun that we hit record. In this episode we talk about the difference between quick dopamine hits and the kind of fun you're glad you did, living with hyperactive ADHD, what 18 months without alcohol looks like (stag dos and weddings included), and why a craving for a beer is really a craving for dopamine.


We also get into ice hockey and coaching kids as healthy dopamine, ADHD and medication, non-alcoholic Guinness, Jesse Itzler's book Living with a SEAL, and how reading helped with grief and loss.
