How did the Huberman Lab podcast start?

The Huberman Lab podcast was initiated by Andrew Huberman as a platform to delve deeply into scientific topics and tools related to those topics. He was already actively teaching neuroscience through social media and appearing as a guest on various podcasts, which fueled his decision to start his own podcast. This podcast allows for a thorough exploration of individual topics, such as motivation and focus, over an extended period, typically a month. This format provides an in-depth understanding of specific scientific areas and their practical applications in everyday life 1.
