Why Peter Attia Gets the Platform (and Others Don't)

Описание: This conversation explores patterns of institutional support, media amplification, and conflicts of interest in health communication. It references public figures as case studies in these larger dynamics, not as targets of personal attack. We encourage viewers to investigate these patterns independently.

I recorded a different kind of conversation this week with Dr. Peter Rogers. We didn’t plan it. Peter hadn’t prepared slides. But a few things he’d been watching—including new Epstein-related disclosures and a video by Rebecca Watson—sparked a deeper discussion about who gets elevated as an authority in health and medicine, and why.

We talk about Peter Attia, high-fat “Mediterranean” style diets, conflicts of interest, and why some health messages get endlessly amplified by major media while others—especially those claiming chronic disease is largely reversible—are systematically sidelined.

The conversation goes beyond nutrition. It’s about power, incentives, moral frameworks, and patterns that repeat across science, medicine, and culture.

You don’t have to agree with everything said to find this valuable. The goal isn’t ideology—it’s learning to recognize how narratives are shaped and protected, and by whom.
