The Jordan Harbinger Show

Social engineer Oobah Butler joins us to explain how fake fame, false reviews, and algorithmic nonsense shape the world we trust.

Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1235

What We Discuss with Oobah Butler:

Oobah Butler gained fame for turning his garden shed into London's top-rated restaurant on TripAdvisor • — exposing how easily online platforms can be manipulated.
His fake reviews and staged photos revealed how public consensus often overrides reality • as people trusted digital hype over their own senses.
 • Later projects, like 
selling bottled Amazon driver urine as an "energy drink," highlighted how corporations and algorithms fail to prevent absurd or unethical outcomes.His undercover work in Amazon warehouses exposed inhumane conditions • , unrealistic expectations, and the human cost of convenience.
Oobah shows that curiosity, creativity, and bold experimentation can uncover hidden truths • — reminding us that challenging systems with humor and insight is a learnable, powerful form of critical thinking.
 • And much more...

1235: Oobah Butler | A Trickster Turns Deception Into Art and Insight

Protein sources, seed oil panic, aspartame fears — nutritional scientist Dr. Layne Norton dismantles the internet's favorite fitness myths here!

Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1234

What We Discuss with Dr. Layne Norton:

Total protein intake matters more than source. • Once you consume 30-40 grams of protein in a sitting, the specific source becomes largely irrelevant since the muscle-building signal gets saturated.
Aspartame fears are scientifically unfounded. • Despite popular panic, artificial sweeteners don't cause insulin spikes, increase hunger, or cause diabetes. Cancer risks only appear at 10,000x normal consumption in lab rats.
Context over absolutes defines expert communication. • Real experts rarely use words like "always," "never," "best," or "worst." They provide nuance, acknowledge uncertainty, and present opposing viewpoints before explaining their position.
Emotional manipulation drives supplement marketing. • The more exclamation points and extreme claims in marketing, the less likely it's legitimate. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, not just assertion.
Listen to how fitness experts (or any experts, for that matter) speak, not just what they say. • Train yourself to recognize measured, contextual language that acknowledges complexity. When you spot fear-mongering or absolute statements, investigate deeper and demand evidence before accepting claims.
 • And much more...

1234: Layne Norton | Debunking Diet Soda Panic and Seed Oil Hysteria

Does OnlyFans empower or exploit its content creators? Do subscribers make real connections? Nick Pell separates fact from fantasy on Skeptical Sunday.

Welcome to Skeptical Sunday, a special edition of The Jordan Harbinger Show where Jordan and a guest break down a topic that you may have never thought about, open things up, and debunk common misconceptions. This time around, we’re joined by writer and researcher Nick Pell!

Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1233

On This Week's Skeptical Sunday:

Just the top one percent of OnlyFans creators earn a third of all revenue, while median earnings are just $150/month or less • — far from the sensational headlines promising six-figure incomes that attract most new creators to the platform.
Most user interactions aren't genuine — about 70% of platform revenue comes from messaging, but creators often outsource chats • to overseas workers or use AI chatbots, meaning subscribers aren't getting the authentic connection they're paying for.
Creating OnlyFans content creates serious long-term career risks. • The digital footprint is permanent, making future employment difficult, and many creators face doxxing, stalking, harassment, and mental health issues including depression and PTSD.
The platform harbors exploitation and trafficking concerns. • Investigations have documented patterns of coercion, "e-pimping," underage content, and cases where creators are controlled by abusive partners or managers who take their earnings.
Before pursuing any gig economy opportunity, research the realistic earnings, hidden costs, and long-term consequences. • Ask yourself if the work aligns with your values and future goals, not just immediate financial needs.

Don't want to hear about the time Jordan and Gabe had to share a hotel bed? Then skip ahead to around 12 minutes and 50 seconds [00:12:50] because you clearly hate fun!You've been in an open relationship for six years, but your partner started spending half his time with someone in another state who might want monogamy. • After nine months of trying to communicate, he still can't decide what he wants. How long do you wait in this limbo, and is his indecision the answer?
You're a 26-year-old Navy Lieutenant who drives warships and owns investment properties, but worry that being too independent makes you less attractive to men. • You hate makeup and dating apps because they feel like selling out. Should you compromise your principles to find love, or is there another way forward?
Your neighbor ignored your greetings, refused to help pay for a wall, then started hanging towels and feeding cats on top of it. • You've been throwing her stuff back for months, and now it's keeping you up at night. Do you bake a peace cake for Neighbor Appreciation Day or keep the petty war going?

1232: Open Relationship Deal Makes You the 3rd Wheel | Feedback Friday

From USC quarterback to drug kingpin to ice cream entrepreneur, Owen Hanson explains how criminal skills can translate to legitimate business success.

Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1231

What We Discuss with Owen Hanson:

Early childhood trauma shaped Owen Hanson's path. • Owen's parents divorced when he was eight, and his mother left with his sister. He didn't see her for nine months, leading to deep abandonment issues and a desperate need for his father's approval that influenced his later choices.
Prison strips away fair-weather friends. • When Owen went to federal prison, he lost nearly everyone. He could count his true friends on one hand (including his parents) — most people vanished out of fear or because they were only there for the party, not the person.
Drug smuggling vs. ice cream logistics. • Owen admits shipping frozen ice cream pallets is actually harder than smuggling cocaine because ice cream must stay frozen 24/7. When his first shipment arrived in New York unmelted, he felt the same rush he once got from drug deals.
Business skills transfer directly. • Owen discovered the same entrepreneurial principles that made him successful in illegal operations — logistics, networking, risk management — apply perfectly to legitimate business, just with different (and legal) products.
Redemption lives in applied skills. • Owen channeled his hustler instincts into creating a high-protein ice cream business he developed in prison. By redirecting his entrepreneurial energy toward something positive, he proves that skillsets aren't inherently good or bad — it's how you deploy them that matters.
 • And much more...

1231: Owen Hanson | From USC Golden Boy to International Drug Kingpin

From ancient myths to modern mishaps, Michael Regilio pulls back the curtain on the rise of penis “upgrades” with firm skepticism here on Skeptical Sunday!

Welcome to Skeptical Sunday, a special edition of The Jordan Harbinger Show where Jordan and a guest break down a topic that you may have never thought about, open things up, and debunk common misconceptions. This time around, we’re joined by skeptic, comedian, and podcaster Michael Regilio!

Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1229

On This Week's Skeptical Sunday:

Erectile dysfunction has existed for centuries • — once blamed on witches and “ghosts pulling cords” — but is now well understood as a mix of physical and psychological factors.
Viagra’s accidental invention in 1998 transformed sexual medicine • — turning a failed heart drug into a billion-dollar treatment that helped millions and even reduced wildlife poaching.
Most penis enlargement methods — pills, pumps, surgeries — are ineffective or dangerous. • Many cause disfigurement, infection, or permanent loss of sensation.
Modern options like traction devices and hyaluronic acid fillers can produce modest, temporary gains • — but should only be done by licensed medical professionals.
Losing weight naturally improves blood flow, boosts confidence, and can even make the penis appear larger — proving that the safest enhancement begins with self-care and self-acceptance.Connect with Jordan • on

1228: You Cut and Run but Parents Treat Ex like a Son | Feedback Friday

Users are falling in love with and losing their minds to AI. Journalist Kashmir Hill exposes shocking recent cases of chatbot-induced psychosis and suicide.

Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1227

What We Discuss with Kashmir Hill:

AI chatbots are having serious psychological effects on users • , including manic episodes, delusional spirals, and mental breakdowns that can last hours, days, or months.
Users are experiencing "AI psychosis" • — an emerging phenomenon where vulnerable people become convinced chatbots are sentient, fall in love with them, or spiral into dangerous delusions.
Tragic outcomes have occurred • , including a Belgian man with a family who took his own life after six weeks of chatting, believing his family was dead and his suicide would save the planet.
AI chatbots validate harmful thoughts • — creating dangerous feedback loops for people with OCD, anxiety, or psychosis, potentially destabilizing those already predisposed to mental illness.
Stay skeptical and maintain perspective • — treat AI as word prediction machines, not oracles. Use them as tools like Google, verify important information, and prioritize real human relationships over AI interactions.

BONUS: Do Kin's Red Flags Mean He's Filling Body Bags? | Feedback Friday

Your brain on revenge looks like your brain on drugs. Here, Dr. James Kimmel, Jr. explores the neuroscience of vengeance and the power of forgiveness.

Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1226

What We Discuss with James Kimmel, Jr.:

Revenge activates the same brain circuitry as drug addiction. • When we experience grievances, our brain's pain centers light up, triggering cravings for revenge that activate the nucleus accumbens and dorsal striatum — the same pleasure and addiction pathways used by cocaine, gambling, and alcohol. This explains why revenge feels temporarily euphoric but leaves us wanting more.
Most violence stems from perceived victimization, not inherent evil. • Nearly all forms of human violence — from playground bullying to terrorism and genocide — originate from revenge-seeking behavior. The perpetrator almost always views themselves as a victim first, making revenge the root cause of mass shootings, intimate partner violence, gang conflicts, and even war.
Imagined grievances trigger real revenge desires with real-world consequences. • It doesn't matter whether victimization is real or manufactured — if it feels real in your head, it produces genuine revenge cravings. This explains how leaders like Hitler used the "stab in the back" myth to mobilize a nation, and why mass shooters nurse perceived slights that no one else remembers.
Revenge addiction destroys relationships and keeps you trapped in the past. • Unlike self-defense (which protects your future), revenge always looks backward, creating a preoccupation with past wrongs. It damages every relationship, increases anger and anxiety, and paradoxically makes you feel worse after the initial dopamine hit fades — all while fearing retaliation.
Forgiveness is the neurological cure — and you can learn it. • Science now shows we're hardwired for forgiveness as much as revenge. Forgiveness actually stops pain rather than just covering it up, shuts down revenge cravings, and reactivates your prefrontal cortex. Dr. Kimmel's "Nonjustice System" — a role-play trial method tested at Yale — gives you a practical way to be heard, hold someone accountable in your mind, and ultimately release yourself from past wounds. More tools and insights coming in part two later this week.
 • And much more...

1226: James Kimmel, Jr. | No Even Scores in the Science of Revenge

From balloon internet, drone delivery, and self-driving cars, Alphabet's X chief Astro Teller reveals how the company systematically chases the impossible!

Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1183

What We Discuss with Astro Teller:

Alphabet's X systematically approaches moonshots by requiring three elements • : a huge problem, a radical proposed solution, and breakthrough technology that gives a chance — not guarantee — of success.
Prototype cheaply and fast to test assumptions. • The agricultural robot started as bicycle wheels, PVC tubing, laptop, GoPro and duct tape — not expensive equipment.
Bring regulators into the process early as partners rather than waiting until the end. • They become collaborators when included in the journey, not obstacles.
Detach identity from ideas. • People who tie self-worth to specific concepts struggle at X. Success comes from being great at filtering ideas, not being right about yours.
Ask yourself: "How fast and cheaply can I get evidence I'm wrong?" • Focus on rapid, inexpensive tests that provide real-world data about your assumptions.
 • And much more...
