We voted to legalize marijuana and watched it become part of everyday life. Then a national study revealed just how far the shift had gone: more Americans were now using it on a daily basis than alcohol. But underneath that cultural transformation, the drug itself was changing. What people remembered as “just weed” was becoming far more potent, with consequences many never anticipated. Dr. Yasmin Hurd, one of the world’s leading cannabis scientists, has spent nearly 40 years studying what marijuana does to the brain. She has witnessed that transformation firsthand—and seen the fallout in families dealing with addiction, psychosis, and mental health problems that can change the course of a life. For her, this is not a warning about a crisis that might happen. It is one already unfolding. To understand how we got here, we follow five clues: • How today’s weed became so different from what people thought they were legalizing • What happens in your brain when you get high—and why tolerance can fool you • How using weed to feel better can become needing it to feel normal • The connection between high-potency cannabis and psychosis • And why the same scientist sounding this alarm is studying cannabis compounds as potential treatments for addiction This episode investigates what happened beneath marijuana’s public reinvention, what the science is revealing, and why understanding the difference could matter profoundly to you or someone you love.

For thousands of years, people have built their lives around the teachings of Jesus, Buddha, and Muhammad. Their ideas have shaped civilizations and still guide some of our most personal decisions, from how we treat people to how we face death. But influence is not the same as truth. When a belief shapes how you live, it matters whether it's actually true. This episode returns to their lives and teachings with the benefit of modern scientific research. We investigate what each got right, where difficult questions remain, and whether following their guidance produces the changes they promised. The consequences matter not only for the believer, but for everyone around them. To make sense of it, we follow five clues: • How we know what they actually said—and why scholars disagree about what they meant • Buddha’s understanding of suffering and his proposed path to lasting freedom • Jesus’ vision for human life and the demands of putting his teachings into practice • Muhammad’s understanding of human nature and the way of life he prescribed • And how their competing claims about the afterlife compare with near-death and hospice research We are not assuming they all taught the same thing, or that one must be entirely right and the others entirely wrong. The aim is to follow the evidence without deciding beforehand where it has to lead. Together, those clues lead to a question that matters whether you are religious, skeptical, or somewhere in between: Which of these teachings can we actually trust to build a life around?

Wanting a healthy relationship and feeling drawn to one are not always the same thing. Someone is kind, consistent and emotionally available, yet you feel no spark. Someone else keeps you guessing, and you can’t stop thinking about them. Even when you recognize that a relationship is hurting you, the pull doesn’t necessarily disappear. Psychotherapist Terri Cole has spent nearly 30 years helping people break destructive relationship patterns. But she also knows this confusion from the inside. For years, she pursued emotionally unavailable men while dismissing a man whose kindness and stability seemed better suited to someone else. To understand why this happens (and what it takes to change it), we follow five clues: • Why healthy men can feel boring • What slot machines reveal about why toxic relationships are so hard to leave • What a Father’s Day card exposed about Terri’s earliest experience of love • The 19-page letter to her father—and whether healing requires an apology • Why the man she had overlooked for years suddenly became attractive to her This conversation goes beyond recognizing red flags. It follows how childhood experiences can shape attraction, what we tolerate in relationships, and why understanding a pattern is not always enough to stop repeating it. Together, those clues lead to a much bigger question: What has to change for the love you want to become the love you’re drawn to?

Many of us enter relationships assuming that love means wanting one person for the rest of our lives. Then desire changes. The person we love becomes familiar, sex becomes less frequent, and we start wondering whether something is wrong with us, our partner, or monogamy itself. Research complicates the picture further. In Dr. Terri Conley’s studies, swingers reported greater sexual satisfaction than monogamous participants.But that finding alone does not mean opening a relationship will improve it. To investigate, we brought together three very different perspectives: Conley, a leading non-monogamy researcher; Dr. Stephen Snyder, a sex therapist with decades of couples work; and Jay Stringer, a therapist and minister who studies where sexual desire comes from. Together, we follow five clues: • Why swingers reported better sex with the partner they already had • How your childhood and parents can shape what you want sexually • Why familiarity can weaken desire, even when you still love your partner • What happened when couples opened their relationships • And how religious and moral beliefs shape what we think sex and commitment are for monogamy The conversation goes beyond comparing who has better sex. Our guests challenge one another on what makes a relationship fulfilling, which difficulties are worth working through, and whether changing the arrangement changes the underlying problem. Together, those clues lead to a much bigger question: Is the problem monogamy itself or what we expect one person to give us?

A story about someone being healed by prayer is one thing. Medical records documenting an extraordinary recovery are another. Dr. Joshua Brown, a neuroscientist at Indiana University, has spent years investigating what happens when those two things meet. His team has examined medical records, consulted specialists, and published cases of recoveries they could not explain. But confirming that someone recovered is not the same as knowing what caused it. Belief, expectation, and human connection all deserve serious consideration before we reach for a supernatural explanation. Brown’s research asks how far those explanations can take us—and what remains unresolved. To make sense of it, we follow five clues: • Three extraordinary recoveries after prayer—and the medical evidence behind them • What the placebo effect reveals about the power of belief, and whether it can explain these cases • What happened when researchers compared five minutes of prayer with relaxing music • The overlooked connection between all three healings: none happened alone • And the loss that forced Brown to confront what happens when healing never comes This conversation takes both the remarkable recoveries and the unanswered prayers seriously. It examines what can be documented, what remains a matter of interpretation, and why the distinction matters to anyone searching for hope. Together, those clues lead to a much bigger question: Could some of these recoveries be evidence that God actually heals people in response to prayer?

Most of us flush without looking. But your poop is one of the few health signals your body gives you every single day. Changes in its color, shape, consistency, frequency, or the presence of blood can offer clues about everything from your liver and gallbladder to inflammation, digestive disease, and colorectal cancer. And some of the warning signs are not as obvious as people think. Blood is not always red. White stool can signal a problem with bile flow. And sometimes the most important clue is simply that something has changed from what is normal for you. Dr. Karan Rajan is a gut doctor and one of the world’s largest health and science creators. In this episode, he helps us understand what the toilet can actually tell us about what is happening inside the body. To make sense of it, we follow five clues: • What your poop can reveal about colorectal cancer and other serious conditions • Why what is “normal” can look radically different from person to person • What constipation, diarrhea, bloating and farting can reveal about your gut • Why blood is not always red, and what color, shape and texture can tell you • And what your brain, stress and sleep have to do with all of it Together, those clues lead to a surprisingly important question: What is your body already telling you that you may be flushing away?

For most of modern history, the afterlife was treated as something you could believe in, but never prove. Then near-death research produced one finding that changed the entire conversation. Millions of people have reported leaving their bodies during near-death experiences. And here’s the fascinating part: some came back with specific information about the physical world that could be verified by doctors, nurses, witnesses, and medical records. That is where the subject becomes much harder to dismiss. The book we cover today, The Self Does Not Die, represents a culmination of decades of that research. It gathers some of the strongest cases from across hospitals, countries, and the scientific literature and places them side by side. So today's episode investigates what happens when an experience reported by millions begins producing information people seemingly had no physical way to know. Because the real power of this book is not one impossible story. It is that the same finding keeps appearing under radically different conditions.

Sex has never been more visible. And yet, we have become the least sexual generation in modern history. Pornography is instantly available. Dating apps offer billions of swipes. Sexual norms are more permissive than ever. But partnered sex is falling, younger generations are dating less, and many people young report having had no sex in the previous year. Dr. Debra Soh is a neuroscientist who has spent years studying human sexuality and has been following this “sex recession” since the earliest research began documenting it over a decade ago. To understand how a culture this obsessed with sex ended up having so little of it, we follow five clues: • Why sexual inactivity is rising even as sex becomes more culturally visible
 • How dating apps created more options but surprisingly little real-world connection
 • Why pornography may be replacing some of the motivation required for partnered sex
 • What AI companions like Bobby reveal about outsourcing intimacy itself
 • And the deepest paradox of all: what we may have lost when we rejected the old rules around sex and relationships Together, those clues point toward a much bigger question: How did a generation with more access to sex than any before it become so disconnected from actually having it?

Parents have never had more information about how to raise emotionally healthy children. We know more about anxiety, trauma, validation and how profoundly childhood can shape the person someone becomes. And yet, something strange is happening at the same time. Young people are increasingly afraid of ordinary milestones. An increasing number don't move out of their childhood home until after age 30. Therapists are seeing children describe normal conflict as “toxic,” ordinary worry as anxiety, and difficult emotions as emergencies. And parents, terrified of getting it wrong, are stepping in earlier and more often to make sure everything turns out okay. Sissy Goff and David Thomas have spent more than three decades counseling children, teenagers, and families. Their concern is not that parents care too much. It is that some of our best instincts may be producing an unintended consequence: children who feel deeply understood, but increasingly unsure they can handle life without us. To understand how we got here, we follow five clues: • Why 49% of people under 30 still live with their parents • How parents begin managing outcomes as early as age three • What a child who kicked a flight attendant reveals about emotional validation without boundaries • Why one mother asked Alexa how to stop her daughter’s panic attack • And the surprising gap between how many people experience trauma and how many develop PTSD Together, those clues lead to a much bigger question: How do you protect a child without protecting them from the experiences that teach them they can handle life?

For most of modern history, UFOs were treated as a cultural punchline. Until something massive changed. The Pentagon released military footage. NASA launched an investigation. Harvard began building instruments to study the phenomenon. And scientists with prestigious reputations started publicly asking a question that could once have ended a career: Could some of these objects actually be non-human? This episode does not argue that every strange light in the sky is extraordinary. Most UFO reports eventually have ordinary explanations. The real mystery is the small remainder that does not. To understand why that remainder has kept scientists and governments investigating for nearly eight decades, we follow four clues: • The secret network of scientists who studied UFOs when almost no one could admit it publicly
 • What 78 years of government investigations actually uncovered
 • Five recurring behaviors that challenge what known human technology should be capable of
 • And the strangest clue of all: what happens when the phenomenon gets close enough to affect people directly Together, those clues lead somewhere even stranger than the UFO story most of us inherited. And when you place the strongest cases beside one another, you begin to understand why prestigious scientists now believe some UFOs have non-human origins.

Marriage has never come with more advice, more therapy, or more language for what healthy relationships are supposed to look like. And yet nearly half of marriages still end. So what are we missing about how relationships actually fall apart? Divorce lawyer James Sexton has spent more than two decades inside thousands of divorces, giving him a view of marriage most relationship experts never get to see: the ending. To investigate what those endings can teach us about staying together, we follow five clues: • Why women initiate 69% of divorces
 • Why expensive weddings can predict failure
 • How changing gender roles are reshaping marriage
 • Why people repeat the same mistakes in second and third marriages
 • And somehow, what blowjobs and granola have to do with all of it Together, those clues point toward a much larger question: what do couples who stay together understand that others often learn too late?

Bryan Johnson has become the most famous human experiment on Earth. He tracks thousands of biomarkers and follows one of the most intensive longevity protocols ever made public. When he claimed to be the healthiest person on the planet, he published the data to support it. On one measure of biological aging, his body was aging so slowly that he joked he only had a birthday every 19 months. Whatever you think of his methods, the numbers are extraordinary. But early last month, Bryan announced that he had been diagnosed with autoimmune gastritis, an incurable autoimmune disease that can remain hidden for years. The announcement triggered a huge wave of criticism. One side saw proof that health optimization is pointless. The other saw proof that the system worked, because his testing uncovered a disease that might otherwise have remained undetected. Both reactions contain slivers of truth. That is exactly why neither one tells the whole story. His biomarkers are extraordinary, his diagnosis is real and finding it early was valuable. The fact that it happened despite those numbers matters too. The internet treated those facts as competing verdicts, but the latest episode of the Mighty Pursuit Podcast treats them as clues. This is not a takedown of Bryan Johnson or the longevity movement. Nor is it a complete endorsement. It examines what health optimization can genuinely give us, where its power ends, and the question we all need to be prepared to answer: what happens when your health cannot be fixed?

Exercise is one of the few things nearly everyone agrees we should do. And yet, most people still hate or dislike doing it. We usually interpret that resistance as a personal failure. If you do not want to wake up early, drive to a gym, and lift heavy objects under bright lights, you must be lazy, undisciplined, or insufficiently committed to your health. Dr. Daniel Lieberman believes we have the problem completely backward. For most of human history, people did not exercise for its own sake. They moved because survival required it. Then modern life removed movement from nearly every part of the day and told us to schedule it back in as a separate activity. So, of course, you do not want to exercise. The human body evolved to conserve energy whenever movement was unnecessary. But that does not make movement unimportant. Regular physical activity remains one of the most powerful tools we have for preventing disease, preserving function, and extending life. Some studies have found as much as 10 years. And few scientists alive have done more to help us understand why. Daniel Lieberman is one of the most influential evolutionary biologists of his generation. The legendary Harvard professor has spent decades reconstructing how the human body evolved to walk, run, carry, rest, and survive. His research has fundamentally shaped modern thinking about endurance running, barefoot movement, physical activity, and the mismatch between our ancient biology and modern lives. With more than 13,000 citations and a Google Scholar h-index of 91, Lieberman is not simply commenting on the science of movement. He helped build the field through which much of it is now understood. This conversation asks a completely different question. Not: how do you force yourself to work out? But: how do you build a life where movement feels natural again?

Something strange happens in the weeks before death. Patients often begin seeing loved ones who have already died. They say someone is in the room. They describe being visited. And again and again, they repeat some version of the same phrase: “I’m going home.” This is not just anecdotal. In one Hospice Buffalo study, 88.1% of dying patients reported a deathbed vision. That finding echoes research from nearly fifty years earlier, when investigators examined tens of thousands of accounts from people approaching death. But here’s the part that’s hardest to dismiss: hospice workers and researchers consistently report that these experiences do not behave like ordinary delirium or hallucination. They seem to be something else. Almost as if the boundary between two worlds is beginning to thin. Hospice nurse Julie McFadden has witnessed this firsthand across thousands of deaths. Last year, we invited Julie onto the podcast, and more than 500,000 people watched that conversation. This time, we wanted to go deeper. Why do so many dying patients say they’re going home? And what might that reveal about where home actually is?

141 million. That’s how many people have watched an extraordinary story unfold in Utah over the last six months. Two friends, Chandler and Josh, met a homeless man named Trevor. Then they did something almost no one else would do: they invited him to live in their home. A home without locks on the bedroom doors. When we first came across the story, we had a lot of questions. In an age where almost everything is documented online, it’s fair to wonder what’s real and what’s staged. But after spending time with Chandler and Josh behind the scenes, hearing how it all happened and what life with Trevor has actually been like, we came away with the impression that these guys are exactly who they appear to be. So this episode is about Trevor’s story. But it is also about you. Because underneath what Chandler and Josh did is something almost all of us are searching for: a life that actually feels meaningful. Modern life keeps telling us the same thing: heal yourself, protect yourself, optimize yourself. And while those things matter, millions of people have done all of them and still feel empty, powerless, and profoundly alone. So what if the life we’re looking for is not found by making life even more about ourselves? What if it begins by giving more of ourselves away? This is the unbelievable story of what happened when two men opened their home to Trevor. And hearing how it unfolded may change the direction of your own life.
