Episode description

Dr. Michael Gershon—legendary Columbia professor and author of The Second Brain—joins us to explain why your intestines might just be running the show. From guinea pig guts that "blew back" to the real reason stress wrecks your digestion, this episode dives deep into the mysterious world of the enteric nervous system. Prepare for gut science, serotonin surprises, and a Woody Allen–esque dose of humor from the father of neurogastroenterology himself.
