#818: John Arnold with Dr. Peter Attia — The Greatest Energy Trader of All Time on Lessons Learned, Walking Away from Wall Street, and Reinventing Philanthropy

Hello, hello, hello, Nelly. This is Tim Ferris. I figured I'd mix up the intro. Welcome to another episode of the Tim Ferris Show where it is my job. each episode typically to sit down with world class performers of all different types, from all different industries, from all different fields to tease out the habits, routines, favorite books, influences, and so on that you can in some fashion emulate or test and apply in your own life. This time around in this episode we have a slightly different format, which I'm Super excited about. I will not be the one doing the deconstructing instead.

We have my good friend Peter Atia taking my place. In this episode we have Peter interviewing the legendary John Arnold. As many listeners know and many probably don't know, Dr. Peter Atia on Twitter and Instagram at Peter Atia M D. is a former ultra endurance athlete, so he's done swimming races of twenty five miles, et cetera, a compulsive self experimenter, so we get along well, and one of the most fascinating human beings I know. He is also one of my go-to doctors for anything related to performance And longevity because blending the two

is quite a sophisticated and subtle business. Peter also hosts the Drive, a weekly ultra deep dive podcast focusing on maximizing health, longevity, critical thinking, and a few other things. He really gets into the weeds. with specialists on his show. Topics include fasting, ketosis, Alzheimer's disease, cancer, mental health, and much more. You can subscribe to the drive on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts. And you can find links to all of this in the show notes for this episode at Tim dot blog forward slash podcast. And just search at Tia A T T I A. I will let Peter take it from here. To give John's full bio and introduce the episode, this is one not to miss. I really enjoyed it and hope you do. as well.
