Author Brett Moran and I discuss digital addiction and distraction. He’s got a great system for focus, productivity and avoiding the online rabbit hole.
And I’ve got an important(ish) question for you at the end of the podcast.
The final podcast in my series recorded over here in South-east Asia.
Continuing my series of podcasts recorded here in Asia - you may know that I was planning to go off to a monastery to meditate. It didn’t quite go to plan. Here’s what happened...

This podcast includes the frankly shocking results of my alcohol/ sleep experiment.
Coming up in this podcast, you'll hear about my experiments with:
The Oura Ring
As you may know, I've been road-testing the Oura Ring (and have been talking about it on the podcast). It's a tracking device that you wear on your finger. It measures your sleep, heart rate, heart rate variability, body temperature, and exercise.
Sleep and alcohol
Drinking less
So for more on this, I'm definitely cutting down on the drinking in January - Dryish January as I'm calling it. I've talked to former professional footballer Andy Ramage on today's Zestology podcast. He is a successful trader these days, as well as running the popular site One Year No Beer and being an author at the same time. It's a brilliant interview, and if you're thinking of cutting down on the booze in January, or anytime this year, then I hope you enjoy. And if you want to read his article - How to do dry January without hating your life - it's here.
Steven Masley is one of the world's top experts in this area. He's a bestselling author and TV Doctor in the States, and he knows his stuff. His new book, The Better Brain Solution, is out tomorrow and I heartily recommend a cheeky pre-order as he is one of the top people in the field. It focuses on the link between body, brain and what we eat.
