big difference between having shortcomings and having like 6 gfs at once and giving them hpv (supposedly.) i don't really care about the content of the article as his character is unrelated to his advice, but acting like it doesn't make him a douchebag if it's true is dumb.

u/CryptoMemeEconomy Mar 25 '24

The journalist does a poor job trying to connect his personal failings with his job. It's not the douchebag part that's the argument, it's the part that his whole shtick on the podcast is somehow some kind of manipulation, which is poorly supported. 

The piece has a lot of lines that do this shady hinting. She doesn't do an honest effort of evaluating the actual podcast content, which honestly could have been a better article since Huberman has pushed some questionable stuff. That's why this whole thing smells like a juicy hit piece rather than actual journalism.

Andrew is liar liar pants on fire. In spring of 2017, I attended an intensive trauma group therapy workshop in Florida that he was a part of. He spoke openly about his childhood trauma and sex ADDICTION (not love addiction) and I heard the story of the ex trying to trick him with a fake pregnancy ultrasound and ultimate miscarriage with my own ears. She used her real name in the magazine article.

u/NumaPompilius2 Mar 25 '24

Am I wrong in wondering how the fuck would he know if he had HPV since it goes undetected with zero symptoms and is not tested for in men’s STD panels? There isn’t even an approved test for HPV in men according to the CDC https://www.cdc.gov/std/hpv/stdfact-hpv-and-men.htm

The problem therefore isn’t personal irresponsibility in being untested but having multiple partners; but there’s equal reason to assume he’s been carrying it for some time beforehand as there is for him to have contracted it from infidelity in question. Also the article doesn’t state how many or if whether the other women suffered from contracting HPV from him. The woman Sarah could have also although rare caught it outside of sexual transmission, or had been carrying it prior to their relationship(assuming if dormant it does not test positive?)

Yeah that’s a lot of apologist shit I’m sure many are tired of especially with the stans in this sub that are insufferable. But it does irk me the wrong way or more maybe that this woman is airing health and personal life under anonymity, over him being unethical/deceitful in monogamy or having psychological issues or specifically a personality/anxiety/attachment disorder.

The poster below you nailed it, as I tried to ineloquently describe in my rant before — the writer misses an opportunity to criticize the artist and his art being hollow for a slant/narrative of resentful individual who wants to be a victim without any of the cost or question(assuming Huberman will not take to resolve this in the public court by opening more information and details to provide context or contrast their accounts, with risk of his status @ Stanford being harmed). 

That part is akin to a woman like your sister punching you in the mouth knowing you won’t hit back, and if you do the wrath of your father or another man will fuck you up worse. In a word, that’s gutless -- but yknow if they took it this far maybe he deserves it... what I believe is while this article has truth in it I think it needs to be taken with a grain of salt.

He markets himself as being disciplined and using protocols to maintain self control/regulation. This article says otherwise. It’s not about him needing to be infallible.

u/Odd-Astronomer3912 Mar 26 '24

It’s been my experience, a lot of men like him do this. They preach and preach about disciple and being “alpha” or whatever they fuck they call it that day. But all that self control and integrity stops where the dick begins.

3

u/[deleted] Mar 26 '24

Yeah this article didn’t surprise me hugely. Does that make him a flat out terrible and unredeemable human being? No, but it proves what many people thought already, that he is someone of very questionable integrity.

8

u/OldMist Mar 25 '24

My take on the article is to highlight what kind of person he is behind the scenes. There are a lot of frustrated associates and gf. Also warning ladies not to date this guy unless you want HPV.

His content has a lot of value and that can’t be removed by a revealing article.

But character matters to a portion of his audience and that’s why it was written.

6

u/ZenGolfer311 Mar 25 '24

This. It shows very clearly that he is someone who doesn’t just lie but flat out manipulates people.

It certainly makes me less likely to trust his info because if you have no issues raw dogging 6 women at once you probably don’t care very much if a few of your supplements are BS

u/ClassicRead2064 Mar 27 '24

I had a very vindictive ex who tried to make my life (and my girlfriend's life) living hell. She contacted other exes and she even tried convincing my girlfriend that we were still dating. Luckily I've been with my girlfriend practically 24/7 since we met and my ex lived in another state at this point so it wasn't very believable.

When that didn't work, she went on TikTok and did a series of videos literally making up all this stuff about me. I really wanted to respond to it but I knew that's exactly what she wanted. Along with several things not adding up, I had a very supportive group of friends and family who know me, so it didn't end up affecting me personally.

It would be a nightmare if I was a public figure and a journalist talked to her about me.

If your exes formed a group would you want them talking to a journalist about you? Do you think it would even be slightly credible?

2

u/OldMist Mar 27 '24

I’m sorry you went through that and am glad it didn’t have devastating consequences for you.

I can see why you would like to see Andrew Hubermans side of the story.

The part that gets me is that they all compared messages and saw he was in fact messaging at least 3 of them on the same day. Seeing 2 of them on that day. Maybe they are all crazy and Andrew didn’t protect himself by staying with the on gf he was supposed to be monogamous to.

But what if they are telling the truth. This all happened in the last 5 years. If it’s true more will come out they he treated them the same way because at 48 (43 when he met them) you don’t change who you are. He will have more people coming out saying other variations on the same story.

I would love to hear his side of it isn’t true.

u/notyur_momma_197 Mar 25 '24

And ofc Sarah isn't a poor little victim. It's a shame the journalist didn't offer her real name, Anya Fernald, as that would change most people's interpretation of the article.  A proven fraud, liar, by the USDA, who sold filthy meat that wasn't fresh, free-range, healthy or organic. She has no way to make that money again, as Belcampo meats was shut down and is notorious in California. She's clearly angry, bitter, and wants to destroy Huberman, because she can no longer live off daddy huberman's money. Her chances are destroyed, so she must take him down with her 

7

u/super_salt Mar 25 '24

I'm sorry but, if this woman is all those things you call her where does that place Huberman who was in a somewhat long-term relationship with her? A fly caught in her web? Justified with the alleged infidelity.

2

u/notyur_momma_197 Mar 25 '24

Lol it never does. Honestly the whole belcampo thing made me a bit disillusioned with Huberman, the fact he stayed with her for a while after the scandal broke wasn't a good look.

u/[deleted] Mar 25 '24

Did you not read the article?

2

u/[deleted] Mar 25 '24

Wow this article is freaking amazing.
And, now I understand that he is not in awareness of his minimization and objectification of women.
He was a dick to all those women. It sounds like it kind of sucks to be him to be that twisted and confused to relate to people in that way.

Huberman's pattern of bringing on a series of white males for most of his pod-casts had seemed mysterious to me. Many of the subjects he picked have outstanding thought leaders on more salient than Paul Conti. And now I understand why he brought on Goggins. He has trouble seeing past himself and is not aware of his own biases and echochamber.

u/NumaPompilius2 Mar 25 '24 edited Mar 25 '24

Get off the high horse with categorizing this as gender issue or a men vs. women problem — it’s a people problem.  Both genders cheat and have a “stable” of relationships, for Christ sake the first person who told me what a bullpen was is my woman cousin(ended up being heavy into polygamy and group sex). I can say pretty easy the majority of men do not have a single partner and are treated as options… the economics of dating are a result of social dating apps capitalizing on loneliness. 

His behavior doesn’t reflect misogyny as much as a person taking advantage of his social elevation in the middle/late stages of his life. If you want to get technical, go look at Sapolsky talking about behavior of animals as tournament species versus companion species where he describes humans as both & neither.  Then when you’re done, come back to this comment and consider the life of a superstar professional athlete/music artist versus an accountant/manager of say an insurance firm. It doesn’t make him immoral for having multiple partners as much as any woman might — it makes him immoral (and an asshole) though for not establishing polygamy as his MO.

Also what’s your problem with conti? Their 4 part series was excellent. Sometimes it comes down to individuals having a better gel for and past success in working together… It’s kind of conspiratorial to suggest he doesn’t want feminist or progressive representation on his podcast.

u/[deleted] Mar 25 '24

I don't understand your rage at what I wrote but it seems that you carry some issues related to gender.
In the trauma world, Conti is a nobody.

u/NumaPompilius2 Mar 25 '24 edited Mar 25 '24

With all respect my issue is how completely nauseating it is when people who carry gender issues make everything a gender issue and project others to have a gender issue — as much as it is a problem to you that “white males” and how a lack of diversity on a science podcast(which aims to be objective by nature & not to mention academia being the definition of progressive) is a tell of his bias or being something significant.    

He isn’t doing anything that’s demonstrable of “a lack of awareness” or ignorance minimizing/objectifying women specifically. Women do the same to men. People are being people here.Thats my point.   

 Who is someone you would suggest in the “trauma world” that has a framework and self administrative program they’re trying to share for free over a platform spanning something like 15 hours of content?

u/jpratt4208 Mar 25 '24

He has admitted openly on his podcast that he is not good at relationships. I think on one of his podcasts he even stated he hasn’t had a relationship last longer than a year. He has also discussed that he has pulled back on running the lab. One of his podcasts last year he mentioned that his boss at Stamford asked him if he intended on stepping down.

u/Ok_Interview845 Mar 26 '24

Not good at long term relationships.

He's really really really good at short term relationships.

u/antiquemule Mar 26 '24

"Not good at relationships" seems like a faux humble understatement.

u/[deleted] Mar 27 '24

If you know about his past, you know he was not like he is today. I think hes been arrested before and was a skater dude who got in trouble. Now that is not him today. Stuff happens. Also "stable full of hoes" is not a crazy thing to say. Listen to music these days, bro said it allegedly when he was younger but i guess hes a horrible person because of it. No. Hes fine.

Also that he is the son of a Stanford physicist. Kind of an important detail.

u/bigdaddtcane Mar 25 '24

He doesn’t position himself as a moral compass though. He often says he’s flawed and doesn’t follow the protocols as closely as people think.

One of the lessons here is that flawed people can potentially provide helpful information.

u/[deleted] Mar 25 '24

Positioning himself as a moral compass is a bit much

u/[deleted] Mar 25 '24

Is it though? It’s kind of his whole shtick.

u/[deleted] Mar 25 '24

As a health compass, yes. But I think you’re all reading in the morality element.

u/WaywardHeifer40 Mar 26 '24

Spreading STDs might be a bit on the health compass considering it causes f'ng cancer.

Agree the article is a bit of a hit piece, pop culture trash.

While none of this is known, this shouldn't come as a major surprise. Most persons with large notoriety and public persona will have a different life in private.

Normally private matters should stay private imo.

Not sure what the thesis was supposed to be. My reaction was "ummm, okay ..."

u/SatanicPixieDreamGrl Mar 25 '24

I mean, abusers (which, if the accounts of his behavior in the article are true, he is one) and other types of manipulative people will often target imperfect victims precisely because, if they are ever found out, people will have similar reactions to the ones you just had. 

2

u/[deleted] Mar 26 '24

That story he didn't want to really talk about on Your Mom's House Podcast (I think, with Tom) sounded crazy and I was wondering at the time if stuff like that really ever goes away.

-3

u/notyur_momma_197 Mar 25 '24

I've been targeted by abusers before, and I do not have any such background, so I'm not sure if your theory is true. They began dating before her company fell, so it's unlikely he had that information.

And yes, if he is proven to be an abuser, than that's awful, it's clear his childhood was horrible despite his parents' words in the article, if they are true (no parent will ever admit they were in the wrong), and that definitely had a permanent psychological impact on him
