Episode Synopsis

Mold, EMFs, Histamine & the Biohacking Rain BarrelTony Wrighton was once a high-energy presenter on Sky Sports. Now? He’s the guy who walks into a café wearing EMF shorts, uses tapping to help his 5-year-old poop, and might just be the most nuanced voice in biohacking right now.In this refreshingly honest and surprisingly funny conversation, we explore how Tony’s years of mysterious gut issues and burnout turned out to be histamine intolerance… caused by mold exposure in his student housing decades earlier. We also get real about the biohacks that don’t work, parenting in the digital age, EMF fails, and why the best hacks are still free.Tony’s also the host of the popular Zestology podcast.Topics We CoverMold, histamine intolerance & post-viral fatigueEMFs, sleep canopies & tech that might be doing nothingParenting without iPads (and why tapping helps with constipation)Biohacking fails: TSA trauma, shrinking shorts, and placebo pantsFull-body MRIs, metabolic testing, and the future of diagnosticsWhy Gabor Maté and Esther Perel were Tony’s most important teachersSocial media’s role in health anxiety — and what to do about itKey Moments 00:00 – Mold vs. EMF: Why we’re not all reacting to the same triggers 03:18 – What histamine intolerance really feels like 07:11 – The “Plinko” theory of chronic illness 21:00 – Tapping for kids, parenting in the age of addiction 33:00 – EMF blocking fails, radiation fears & airport scanners 43:29 – What’s actually exciting in health: testing, not techTools & ResourcesDirty Genes by Ben LynchSiPhox Home TestingQuicksilver Scientific – use code RUNGA for 15% offDr. Khan – Austin Regenerative TherapyRELATED EPISODESAmy Piper – The Science of Tapping & Becoming Your Own HealerHuberman’s Dangerous AdviceLIABILITY NOTEEMF sensitivity is not recognized as a formal diagnosis by most medical institutions.
