This episode is brought to you by Eight Sleep. Temperature is one of the main causes of poor sleep, and heat is my personal nemesis. I've suffered for decades tossing and turning, throwing blankets off, pulling the back on, putting one leg on top, and repeating all of that ad nauseum. But now I am falling asleep in record time. Why? Because I'm using a device that was recommended to me by friends called the Pod Cover by Eight Sleep. The podcover fits on any mattress and allows you to adjust the temperature of your sleeping environment, providing the optimal temperature that gets you the best night's sleep. With the podcast dual zone temperature control, you and your partner can set your sides of the bed to as cool as fifty five degrees Or as hot as one hundred and ten degrees. I think generally in my experience, my partners

Prefer the high side and I like to sleep very, very cool. So stop fighting. This helps. Based on your biometrics, environment, and sleep stages, the podcover makes temperature adjustments throughout the night that limit wake ups. And increase your percentage of deep sleep. In addition to its best in class temperature regulation, the podcover sensors also track your health and sleep metrics without the need to use a wearable. So go to 8Sleep.com slash Tim, all spelled out, 8Sleep.com slash Tim, and save$250 on the Aidsleep Podcover. That's 8Sleep.com slash Tim. Eight Sleep currently ships within the US. Canada and the UK, select countries in the EU and Australia. Again, that's eight sleep.com slash Tim to save two hundred and fifty dollars on the eight sleep pod cover.

This episode is brought to you by Magic Spoon. Magic Spoon is a low carb, high protein, and zero sugar cereal that I eat all the time. I ate a huge bowl of their cocoa flavor about an hour ago after a short workout. And it's so easy to prepare. It's instantaneous practically. And you get a lot of goodness. You get a lot of bang for the buck. Time Magazine included Magic Spoon in their list of best inventions of 2019, and Forbes called it the future of cereal. It tastes just like your favorite sugary cereal from childhood. Remember those, but it's actually good for you. Each serving has thirteen to fourteen grams of protein. Four grams of net carbs and zero grams of sugar. It's also gluten free, grain free, soy free, and keto friendly.
