Episode Description from the Publisher

Enhanced Games Reality Check: Thor's Stack, FDA Restrictions, and the Supervised PED Debate Phil Stevens opens with a proud update on his 11-year-old son's powerlifting progress before pivoting to the week's main topic: the Enhanced Games' newly released Thor stack supplement (NAD+, testosterone, Cialis). Phil notes the irony that Thor admitted to using testosterone, deca, and halotestalone at the games, while the supplement product conspicuously omits those compounds. The hosts debate whether the FDA-approved-only drug restriction undermines the games' core premise — Dr. Mike T. Nelson and Dr. Lonnie Lowery explore how international athletes may have had to compete under tighter restrictions than they'd face at home, and the group agrees a better model would involve full informed consent and supervised blood monitoring. They also reflect on how prosecution of steroids has dropped sharply under the current administration, the rapid normalization of TRT and peptides in the general population, and how the reefer madness-style hysteria around anabolics has given way to open conversation. 00:00 Welcome and Hosts 01:42 Phil's Son Breaks National Powerlifting Records 03:38 Enhanced Games Thor Stack News 06:34 Did the Enhanced Games Succeed or Fail? 08:44 The Case for Supervised PED Use 11:46 FDA-Only Rules and International Athletes 16:15 What Doses Did Enhanced Games Athletes Actually Use? 18:40 Thor's Actual Stack vs What They're Selling 20:04 Getting an Enhanced Games Insider on the Show 22:05 Enhanced Games Business Model 24:23 Rise of TRT and Peptides in the General Population 25:07 PED Prosecution Under the Current Administration 26:20 Reefer Madness Then and Now 27:40 Ethics of PEDs Forced Into the Light 28:39 Wrap 29:21 Disclaimer Donate to the show via PayPal HERE.You can also join Dr Mike's Insider Newsletter for more info on how to add muscle, improve your performance and body comp - all without destroying your health, go to www.ironradiodrmike.com Thank you!Phil, Jerrell, Mike T, and Lonnie
