    Cameron Diaz's Baby, Tony Robbins' AI Goes Rogue & Avocado Oil Lies - 1323

    2026-08-12 | 50 mins.
    Cameron Diaz became a mother again at 53, and a new UC Davis study found something bigger: 48 of 54 products labeled "pure avocado oil," including 100% of the salad dressings tested, aren't what the label says.
    Chalene Johnson breaks down the age double standard behind Diaz and husband Benji's third child, names the "small founder" brands caught in the avocado oil test (Siete, Primal Kitchen, Boulder Canyon, Kettle Brand), and reveals who actually owns them now: Pepsi, Kraft Heinz, Utz, and Campbell's.
    Plus, a warning for Claude and ChatGPT users after a Google search loophole exposed private AI chats, and the story behind Tony Robbins' AI agent Bartok, who traded NFTs with other AI agents to buy him a Sony robot dog he never asked for.
    Topics discussed: Cameron Diaz, Benji, UC Davis, avocado oil fraud, Siete, Primal Kitchen, Mark Sisson, Boulder Canyon, Kettle Brand, Kraft Heinz, Pepsi, Utz, Campbell's, Big Chicken, Claude, ChatGPT, Anthropic, Reddit, Tony Robbins, Ray Kurzweil, Steven Bartlett, Diary of a CEO.

    Perez Hilton, AI Hiring Bias & Peptide Doctor's Arrests - 1322

    2026-08-07 | 47 mins.
    Perez Hilton had a public breakdown on TikTok this week, and people are asking what actually happened. Chalene Johnson breaks it down with trigger warnings, including how it connects to his defamation fight with Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds and his brush with death from sepsis this past March.
    Chalene also digs into why qualified applicants, including former Elle editor Stacy Deguide, who deleted 15 years off her resume just to get a callback, are vanishing into what recruiters call an AI hiring black hole. A Stanford study found that roughly one in five companies now let algorithms reject candidates before a human ever sees a resume, and Chalene walks through how hiring software like Workday's may be filtering out midlife workers, new grads, and everyone in between.
    Rounding out the episode is this week's crackdown on the black market peptide trade. An Indiana company called Paradigm Peptides was sentenced after selling to 54,000 customers in 80 countries, a Michigan dealer got 20 years for relabeling semaglutide as Ozempic, Wegovy, and Retatrutide, and a licensed doctor running a Utah clinic called True Health was caught repackaging BPC-157, TB-500, and other peptides under fake labels for more than 200 patients.
    Topics discussed: Perez Hilton, Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Justin Baldoni, TikTok, Ariana Grande, Stacy Deguide, Elle, Stanford University, Workday, Paradigm Peptides, True Health, Justin Watkins, Ozempic, Wegovy, semaglutide, Retatrutide, BPC-157, TB-500, GLP-1, sepsis, ageism.

    🚨Questions Chalene Wants Your Thoughts on:
    Did you look up the Perez Hilton story despite (or because of) people saying not to, and why do you think that is?
    Where do you draw the line between a peptide or hormone you'd feel safe trying and one you'd never touch without a doctor supervising you?

    My Own Hypocrisy | The Body Shaming Double Standard - 1321

    2026-08-05 | 1h
    Dr. Rhonda Patrick just told Mel Robbins to stop putting bananas in your blueberry smoothie, but the study behind her claim has a catch almost nobody is mentioning. It's not the only trusted expert claim getting exposed this week either: The New York Times just uncovered AI clones of Dr. Mary Claire Haver and Dr. Kelly Casperson selling supplements they never actually endorsed.
    Meanwhile, Camille Kostek, Charli D'Amelio, and Ariana Grande are all getting torn apart online over their bodies, and Chalene admits she's been guilty of the exact double standard she's calling out. Why do we judge weight loss so differently than weight gain? And what is Ariana Grande's new video Petal really saying about fame, control, and criticism?
    Topics discussed: Dr. Rhonda Patrick, Mel Robbins, Mars, CocoaVia, The New York Times, Dr. Mary Claire Haver, Dr. Kelly Casperson, Mazymes, BiOptimizers, Camille Kostek, Charli D'Amelio, Ariana Grande, Sports Illustrated, GLP-1, Ozempic, eating disorders, obesity.

    🚨 Questions Chalene Wants Your Thoughts on:
    Do you take a doctor's claim at face value because of their credentials and following, or do you go pull the actual study yourself?
    Have you ever seen a supplement ad and wondered if the "doctor" endorsing it was even real?
    Have you ever caught yourself judging a woman's body one way when she's too thin and a completely different way when she's overweight?

    Why People Keep Pulling Away - 1320

    2026-07-31 | 20 mins.
    Chalene Johnson tackles the question most people are afraid to ask: what if the common denominator in every failed relationship is you?
    She walks through seven signs that you might be the one creating the pattern, from blaming exes instead of owning your part, to childhood attachment wounds resurfacing in adult relationships, to being quick to judge and slow to say sorry. Chalene explains why arrogance can quietly protect you from ever seeing your own role in the breakup or blowup, and why the healthiest relationship you can build is the one with yourself.
    Topics discussed: toxic relationship patterns, attachment style, arrogance in relationships, empathy, self-sabotage, therapy, magnesium and brain function

    🚨Questions Chalene Wants Your Thoughts on:
    Do you tend to explain what happened in a breakup without mentioning your own part in it?
    Have old traumas ever shown up in how you handle a friendship or relationship today?
    Is it hard for you to be the one who says sorry first?
