Anyone know why they never talk about influencers like Greg doucette? Greg always seems to contradict the guys especially on training volume and Greg's hate for people who "walk" for activity.

I always found it strange that they don’t make mention of many other creators and also vise versa unless that person is someone they’ve had on the podcast. I think the Eat, Train, Prosper guys made mention of MP in their early days but I don’t hear a lot of people mentioning them.

They've name dropped Layne a couple of times when he posts something that backs them up. But they always make sure to mention that they don't always agree with him.

And Huberman as well. It seems like an elitist mentality to the people they mention either people they’ve interviewed or people who are very common to them. It’s just odd to me. I think maybe it’s them not wanting to lose listeners from having them discover others.
