Actor and director Josh Duhamel joined host Sean Ryan for a wide-ranging conversation covering Hollywood burnout, apocalypse prepping, spiritual renewal, and the launch of his longevity company Gatlin. Duhamel, known for roles in Transformers and Las Vegas, revealed he has been secretly using testosterone replacement therapy and peptides for years before deciding to co-found a telemedicine company offering hormone optimization and wellness protocols. He disclosed that he spent 16 years building a 55-acre off-grid compound in Minnesota equipped with 3 wells, propane generators, firearms, and stockpiled supplies in case of societal collapse. Duhamel said he is '72% ready for the apocalypse' and cited AI advancement as his primary fear, warning that artificial intelligence is scaling 60 times faster year-over-year and may already be beyond human control. He also described facing street harassment in Los Angeles for driving a Cybertruck, calling it a symptom of 'irrational hatred' dividing the country. The conversation turned spiritual when Duhamel admitted he returned to the Catholic Church after recognizing he was consumed by political rage and losing sleep, crediting Catholic teachings on spiritual warfare with grounding him. Ryan and Duhamel bonded over prepping strategies, parenting challenges, and the struggle to stay present with family while managing high-pressure careers. Duhamel emphasized his decision to work less and spend more time with his 12-year-old son and growing family, including a daughter on the way. The episode closed with Duhamel promoting Gatlin's concierge telemedicine services and stressing the importance of optimizing health while preparing for uncertainty.
